Terrestrial habitat requirements of nesting freshwater turtles (2012, background): “Even if no development occurs within the core areas we defined, subsidized predators originating from urban or suburban areas can penetrate a protected area, although predation patterns are not always easily discerned (Marchand and Litvaitis, 2004, Strickland and Janzen, 2010).”
Effects of Habitat Features and Landscape Composition on the Population Structure of a Common Aquatic Turtle in a Region Undergoing Rapid Development (2004, background): “As an assessment of predator activity in areas surrounding ponds, we included a variable that indexed the rate of nest predation based on the rate of predation of 40 artificial nests placed at 36 of the 37 ponds (Marchand & Litvaitis 2004).”
