What is long‐distance dispersal? And a taxonomy of dispersal events (2017, background): “…concern the movement of propagules away from the source population, a type of dispersal relevant to colonization ability and range expansion (Howe & Miriti 2004), and the movement away from the location of close relatives, that is a movement away from the genetic neighbourhood (Hardesty,…”
Consequences of Seed Dispersal for Plant Recruitment in Tropical Forests: Interactions Within the Seedscape (2013, background): “While local conditions within the seedscape can have large effects on recruitment, it is often not clear how these local processes will affect populations over much larger spatial and longer temporal scales (Howe & Miriti 2004).”

Bushmeat and the Fate of Trees with Seeds Dispersed by Large Primates in a Lowland Rain Forest in Western Amazonia (2007, background): “…movement and behavior after seed ingestion establishes the initial distribution of seeds (Bleher & Bohning-Gaese 2001, Wenny 2001), and sets the template for subsequent processes that ultimately lead to adult recruitment (Schupp & Fuentes 1995, Howe & Miriti 2004, Nathan & Muller-Landau 2000).”
Fruit quantity of invasive shrubs predicts the abundance of common native avian frugivores in central Pennsylvania (2011, background): “…dynamics of plant communities, their self-organizing properties and their resilience by disrupting functional frugivory and seed dispersal networks (Cordeiro & Howe, 2003; Howe & Miriti, 2004; Şekercioğlu et al., 2004; Bascompte & Jordano, 2007; Terborgh et al., 2008; Garcı́a et al. 2010).”
Ecosystem Services Provided by Birds (2008, background): “Because the chance of a given seed surviving the entire cycle from seed to reproductive adult is so small, any movement away from the parent plant (under which survival is almost always nil) is likely beneficial (Howe & Miriti 2004).”
Patterns of Seed Dispersal and Dispersal Failure in a Hawaiian Dry Forest Having Only Introduced Birds (2010, background): “…of dispersers may sometimes be compensated for by surrogate dispersal agents or a concomitant loss of seed predators (Dausmann et al. 2008), restoration of degraded areas may also be limited by lack of seed dispersal into these sites (Cordeiro & Howe 2001, Howe & Miriti 2004, Makana & Thomas 2004).”
