Contrasting responses of bee communities to coffee flowering at different spatial scales (2006, background): “2001, 2002), butterflies (Summerville et al. 2003) or herbivory and parasitism rates (Thies et al.”
Spatial scale of observation affects α, β and γ diversity of cavity‐nesting bees and wasps across a tropical land‐use gradient (2006, methodology): “Therefore the spatial scale selected for the study may inadvertently determine the outcome, for instance if species turnover is low within plots, but high between plots (Summerville et al., 2003).”
Partitioning Species Diversity across Landscapes and Regions: A Hierarchical Analysis of α, β, and γ Diversity (2003, methodology): “…partitions have now been used to analyze hierarchical patterns of species diversity in agricultural landscapes (Wagner et al. 2000; Fournier and Loreau 2001), tropical forests (DeVries et al. 1997, 1999; DeVries and Walla 2001), and temperate forests (Gering et al. 2003; Summerville et al. 2003).”
Partitioning diversity for conservation analyses (2010, methodology): “In fact, a very high similarity value using the Gini–Simpson index is universal in additive partitioning studies of high-diversity ecosystems (e.g. DeVries et al., 1997; Gering et al., 2003; Summerville et al., 2003, 2006; Stendera & Johnson, 2005; Chandy et al., 2006; Ribeiro et al., 2008).”
