Amphibian species richness across environmental gradients (2007, background): “Again, this factor should strongly interact with spatial context or connectivity of the ponds, as extinctions due to climate variation affecting hydroperiod require recolonization from other ponds, and therefore mean richness of a pond will depend on how often this occurs (Werner et al. 2007).”
Constraints on the evolution of phenotypic plasticity: limits and costs of phenotype and plasticity (2015, unknown): “Such data have been collected in some exemplary studies (for example, Werner et al., 2007), and advances in technology facilitate gathering biotic environmental variation for specific types of organisms (for example, remote sensing for vegetation).”
Comparative landscape dynamics of two anuran species: climate-driven interaction of local and regional processes (2009, methodology): “Areas of sampled ponds were obtained from either bathymetric maps (27 ponds, adjusted for drying when making total population estimates), or from aerial photographs (10 ponds; see Werner et al. 2007b).”
Effects of forest removal on amphibian migrations: implications for habitat and landscape connectivity (2009, background): “Consequently, habitat composition at the landscape level has been shown to shape amphibian community composition ( Werner et al . 2007a ) and influences gene flow, species abundance, and population persistence at the landscape scale (e.g.”
The agroecological matrix as alternative to the land-sparing/agriculture intensification model (2010, background): “In this case, the researchers were able to demonstrate that “reinvasions,” which is to say, migration events, completely balanced these local extinctions (66).”
