• Bird species richness patterns of northern Taiwan: primary productivity, human population density, and habitat heterogeneity (2006, methodology): “Additionally, comparing to the significant correlation of BSR and NDVI in our study, the two variables in Lee et al. (2004) have nonsignificant correlation in the range of NDVI < 0.5 (r = 0.03, P = 0.57).”
• Effects of urbanization on butterfly species richness, guild structure, and rarity (2007, background): “…have focused primarily on vertebrates, including reptiles (Germaine and Wakeling 2001), amphibians (Gibbs 1998; Homan et al. 2004; Clark et al. 2007), mammals (Riley et al. 2003; Jedrzejewski et al. 2004), and birds (Green and Baker 2003; Melles et al. 2003; Miller et al. 2003; Lee et al. 2004).”
• Global analysis of bird elevational diversity (2009, unknown): “Similarly, studies in Taiwan and China found strong impacts of disturbance and human habitation at low elevations (Lan & Dunbar, 2000; Shiu & Lee, 2003; Lee et al., 2004).”
• Macro‐scale bird species richness patterns of the East Asian mainland and islands: energy, area and isolation (2006, background): “After the effect of primary productivity was removed, human population density was significantly negatively correlated with BSR. Human disturbance and urbanization usually negatively affect BSR at local and regional scales (Jokimäki et al., 2002; McKinney, 2002; Lee et al., 2004).”
• Explaining the species richness of birds along a subtropical elevational gradient in the Hengduan Mountains (2013, background): “…are thought to reflect the productivity (net primary productivity or gross primary productivity) of an ecosystem, and have also been found to be good predictors of bird diversity patterns in many continental and elevational studies (Lee et al., 2004; Hawkins et al., 2005, 2007; Koh et al., 2006).”
