Spatial patterns of autochthonous and allochthonous resources in aquatic food webs (2008, background): “Food webs encompass a large range of spatial scales although food web models are often couched within a spatial context (Holt 2002; McCann et al. 2005).”
Distribution and colonisation ability of three parasitoids and their herbivorous host in a fragmented landscape (2007, background): “…levels of fragmentation lead to increased herbivore incidence, in part because predatory insects and parasitoids can only colonise patches already occupied by their hosts (Holt, 2002; Van Nouhuys, 2005; Weisser, 2000) or perhaps because they do not disperse as well as their host (Roland, 1993).”
The metacommunity concept: a framework for multi-scale community ecology (2004, background): “Holt et al. 1994; Leibold 1996; Holt & Polis 1997; McCann et al. 1998; Holt 2002; Bolker et al. 2003).”
Chaos and pattern formation in a spatial tritrophic food chain (2006, background): “, 2001; Hosseini, 2003; Levin, 2003; Rauch et al., 2003; De Aguiar et al., 2004). Models based in the mean field approximation, however, do not necessarily display simple behavior. Interesting examples of mean field models in ecology that exhibit chaotic dynamics are the discrete time models of sing”
Effects of habitat fragmentation at different trophic levels in insect communities (2005, background): “As long as habitat fragmentation is not too extreme, fragmentation can promote regional coexistence of predators and prey (Hassell 2000, Holt 2002), and its effect can differ greatly among species.”
Environmental determinants of food-chain length: a meta-analysis (2013, result): “Ecosystem size had a positive mean effect size, in consistent with existing theories (Schoener 1989; Holt 1996; Post et al. 2000; Takimoto et al. 2012).”
Biodiversity, species interactions and ecological networks in a fragmented world (2012, background): “capacity (Didham et al., 1996; Hance et al., 2007; Holt, 2002; Kruess and Tscharntke, 1994; Steffan-Dewenter and Tscharntke, 1999; SteffanDewenter, 2003; Tscharntke et al., 2002; Tylianakis et al., 2007; van Nouhuys, 2005, Vanbergen et al., 2006) and there is evidence from experimental food webs tha”
The spatial scale of plant-animal interactions: effects of resource availability and habitat structure (2011, background): “…organisms have been suggested as mechanisms controlling the demographic outcomes of food webs, as it happens when predators exert their pressure at progressively wider scales, affecting prey population dynamics and metapopulation structure (Fauchald et al. 2000, Holt 2002, Van Koppel et al. 2005).”
Plant-insect interactions in fragmented landscapes. (2004, background): “Local plant-insect communities vary much more in biodiversity than in food chain length (73, 117, 132).”
Network isolation and local diversity in neutral metacommunities (2010, background): “Recent theory has established the importance of these connections for changing and propagating ecological dynamics (Levin 1992, Hubbell 2001, Holt 2002, Amarasekare 2003, Leibold et al. 2004).”
Body size and trophic position in a temperate estuarine food web (2008, background): “…ecosystem size (Post et al., 2000), predator–prey population dynamical constraints, such as self damping (i.e., density-dependent responses; Sterner et al., 1997) or local colonization and extinction dynamics (Pimm, 1982; Holt, 2002), and environmental fluctuations and disturbance (Pimm, 1982).”
Carbon movement and assimilation by invertebrates in estuarine habitats at a scale of metres (2004, background): “The movement of potential energy sources across spatial boundaries is influenced by the structural complexity of the landscape (Holt 2002) and the permeability of habitat boundaries (Marquet et al. 1993), not least in aquatic systems.”
Predator–prey interactions in river networks: comparing shrimp spatial refugia in two drainage basins (2009, background): “tions of their prey can vary within drainage networks in different ways (Leberer & Nelson, 2001; Holt, 2002; Power & Dietrich, 2002).”
