• Testing ecological and behavioral correlates of nest predation (2007, background): “Predation is a major evolutionary and ecological process that can shape both individual behaviors and community structure and function (Reznick and Endler 1982, Martin 1988, 1996, Begon et al. 1996, Pianka 2000).”
• Nest predation research: recent findings and future perspectives (2015, background): “Avian ecology had focused on food limitation for a long period (Lack 1947; reviewed in Martin 1987, 1991), but a series of important papers championed the importance of predation (i.e. Moreau 1944; Skutch 1949; Martin 1988a, b, 1991, 1992, 1993a, b).”
• Adaptive phenotypic plasticity in an island songbird exposed to a novel predation risk (2008, background): “Yet, despite the potential benefits of being able to nest at different heights, most open cup‐nesting passerines are substrate specialists (i.e., consistently placing their nests on the ground, in shrubs, or in tree canopies), with high within-species stereotypy in nest placement ( Martin 1988, 1993”
• EVOLUTION OF AVIAN LOCOMOTION: CORRELATES OF FLIGHT STYLE, LOCOMOTOR MODULES, NESTING BIOLOGY, BODY SIZE, DEVELOPMENT, AND THE ORIGIN OF FLAPPING FLIGHT (2003, background): “The importance of predation as a major selective force that structured a variety of phenotypic traits cannot be overemphasized (Martin 1988, 1995; Conway and Martin 2000; Martin et al. 2000; Remeš and Martin 2002).”
• NEST PREDATION IN AN URBANIZING LANDSCAPE:THE ROLE OF EXOTIC SHRUBS (2004, background): “…at our sites and because nests in exotic shrubs were placed at similar heights, these similarities may have facilitated predator search image allowing predators to focus their efforts on specific nest types (Bowman and Harris 1980, Martin 1987, 1988b, c, 1993b, Schmidt and Whelan 1998, Chase 2002).”
