Viability of an endangered population of ortolan buntings: The effect of a skewed operational sex ratio (2006, background): “One study by Cooper and Walters (2002) suggested that patch isolation was responsible for the high proportion of unpaired males in fragmented habitat, and related this to a lack of female immigration, which parallels the situation for the small and isolated Norwegian population of ortolan buntings,…”
MEASURING LANDSCAPE CONNECTIVITY: THE CHALLENGE OF BEHAVIORAL LANDSCAPE ECOLOGY (2005, background): “…recognized and applied to various taxa such as insects (Pither and Taylor 1998), amphibians (M. J. Mazerolle and A. Desrochers, unpublished manuscript), birds (Bélisle et al. 2001, Cooper and Walters 2002, Gobeil and Villard 2002), and mammals (Bowman and Fahrig 2002, McDonald and St. Clair 2004).”
Demographic Responses by Birds to Forest Fragmentation (2005, background): “For example, some patches in the Conservation Biology Volume 19, No. 5, October 2005 landscape, if too isolated from other patches, may become unreachable by individuals, thereby lowering pairing success (e.g., Cooper & Walters 2002, Brooker & Brooker 2003).”
Applying the Declining Population Paradigm: Diagnosing Causes of Poor Reproduction in the Marbled Murrelet (2004, background): “Experimentation provides a powerful means of disentangling the effects of multiple potential causes of decline (Cooper & Walters 2002; Yates & Broadhurst 2002), but many endangered species and the factors that threaten them are not amenable to manipulation (Green 2002).”
The ecology of extinction: population fluctuation and decline in amphibians (2003, background): “Although these effects have been shown in particular cases (Gibbs, 1998; Cooper and Walters, 2002), their generality has not been thoroughly examined.”
Extinction risk in fragmented habitats (2004, unknown): “…experiments (Forney & Gilpin, 1989; Spielman & Frankham, 1992; Backus et al., 1995; Bryant et al., 1999; Richards, 2000; Newman & Tallmon, 2001) and in natural populations (Westemeier et al., 1998; Madsen et al., 1999; Fenster & Galloway, 2000; Comiskey et al., 2002; Cooper & Walters, 2002).”
Relative importance of habitat quantity, structure, and spatial pattern to birds in urbanizing environments (2006, background): “Yet, habitat pattern can have a greater influence on fragment occupancy by birds than habitat structure in highly fragmented landscapes (Cooper and Walters, 2002).”
The causes of decline of birds of eucalypt woodlands: advances in our knowledge over the last 10 years (2011, background): “Cooper and Walters (2002) translocated females to patches with only males and found that they stayed and even bred there, indicating that failure to disperse to such patches was the most likely cause of their absence from them.”
Landscape modification and habitat fragmentation: a synthesis (2007, background): “Habitat isolation also may negatively affect the dispersal of juveniles (Cooper & Walters, 2002).”
