Quaternary climate changes explain diversity among reptiles and amphibians (2008, background): “…historical climate versus contemporary climate on current patterns of species richness is further challenged, since areas that have been climatically stable over time are often characterized by high levels of contemporary energy and water-energy (Fjeldsa and Lovett 1997, Hawkins and Porter 2003).”
Explaining the global biodiversity gradient: energy, area, history and natural selection (2004, background): “…‘‘relief’’, usually measured as the range of elevation: it has long been known that crinkly areas of the planet have more species (Humboldt in Gould, 2002a; Simpson, 1964; Richerson & Lum, 1980; Badgley & Fox, 2000; O’Brien, Field, & Whittaker, 2000; Hawkins & Porter, 2003a; Hawkins et al., 2003a).”
Energy and interspecific body size patterns of amphibian faunas in Europe and North America: anurans follow Bergmann's rule, urodeles its converse (2007, background): “This allowed us to test the extent that the historical effect is independent of the © 2007 The Authors Global Ecology and Biogeography , 16 , 606–617, Journal compilation © 2007 Blackwell Publishing Ltd 609 explanation provided by measures of current climatic conditions (Hawkins & Porter, 2003).”
Bergmann's rule and the mammal fauna of northern North America (2004, methodology): “First, we test for the existence of Bergmann’s rule in the mammals in northern North America, specifically in the communities of species occupying those areas that were covered by ice at the last glacial maximum (see map in Hawkins and Porter 2003).”
The latitudinal gradient of beta diversity in relation to climate and topography for mammals in North America (2009, unknown): “For North American mammals, the time since deglaciation has a measurable influence on extant species density in the formerly glaciated region (Hawkins & Porter, 2003), implying a lag in recolonization.”
Seasonality, the latitudinal gradient of diversity, and Eocene insects (2010, background): “…of glaciation on diversity may be detectable in some portions of North America, post-glacial diversity may be mostly stabilized, its effects erased (Simpson 1964; Adams and Woodward 1989; Roy et al. 1998; Silvertown 1985; Currie 1991; Francis and Currie 2003; Hawkins and Porter 2003; Hawkins 2004).”
Tropical niche conservatism and the species richness gradient of North American butterflies (2009, background): “Strong relationships between climatic conditions and richness have also been reported for the butterflies of California (Hawkins & Porter, 2003a) and Great Britain (Turner et al., 1987).”
Patterns of vascular plant diversity at continental to global scales (2007, background): “In contrast, Tuomisto and Ruokolainen (1997), Kerr and Currie (1999), and Hawkins and Porter (2003) argue that in most analyses current environmental parameters, especially the climate, show more consistent relations and stronger statistical correlations to species richness patterns than historical…”
Climatic history and dispersal ability explain the relative importance of turnover and nestedness components of beta diversity (2012, background): “The effect of this relatively recent environmental change (glaciations) was found to be important in the determination of the diversity (alpha and beta) patterns for several groups (Hawkins & Porter, 2003; Jansson, 2003; Araújo et al., 2008; Baselga, 2008; Davies et al., 2009).”
The role of biotic interactions in shaping distributions and realised assemblages of species: implications for species distribution modelling (2012, background): “…across large geographic extents, but those few observational studies that have included biotic interactions at broad spatial extents have used coarse-grained data (Hawkins & Porter, 2003; Araújo & Luoto, 2007; Heikkinen et al., 2007; Biological Reviews (2012) 000–000 © 2012 The Authors.”
