• Ecological and evolutionary consequences of living in a defaunated world (2013, methodology): “These overviews of the field are followed by a review paper in which Kurten (2013) presents a detailed analysis of the literature regarding the effects of defaunation on herbivory, seed predation and dispersal.”
• Synthesizing the effects of large, wild herbivore exclusion on ecosystem function (2019, background): “Large herbivores can strongly impact many components of plant regeneration (germination, recruitment, survival, etc.; Kurten, 2013) through a wide range of mechanisms, ranging from direct consumption to indirect effects of competition or facilitation.”
