Managing fire mosaics for small mammal conservation: a landscape perspective (2012, background): “The geographic scale at which studies must be undertaken when ‘whole landscapes’ are the unit of study means that environmental gradients across a study region often influence the distribution of species or composition of assemblages (Bennett, Radford & Haslem 2006; Mortelliti et al. 2011).”
The impact of human pressure on landscape patterns and plant species richness in Mediterranean coastal dunes (2016, background): “…effects on forested landscapes, on grasslands, and on agricultural ecosystems have been recognized for many animals (e.g., birds, Fearer & Stauffer 2003; mammals, Mortelliti et al. 2011; insects, Harrisson et al. 2012; With & Pavuk 2012) and plant species (Honnay et al. 2005; Rosati et al. 2010).”
Optimizing landscape selection for estimating relative effects of landscape variables on ecological responses (2013, background): “Our upper limit of 90 % agriculture avoided landscapes with very little or no natural cover, which would likely produce overriding effects on biodiversity (e.g., Freemark and Kirk 2001; Ökinger and Smith 2006; Kirk et al. 2011; Mortelliti et al. 2011) and potentially obscure our ability to detect ef”
