- Modelling long‐distance seed dispersal in heterogeneous landscapes (2008, background): “Although other studies have concluded that long-distance seed dispersal is not uncommon (Jones et al. 2005; Westcott et al. 2005; Hardesty et al. 2006; Russo et al. 2006), the general consensus remains that it is rare (Nathan 2006).”
- Measuring plant dispersal: an introduction to field methods and experimental design (2006, background): “Weather conditions affect dispersal distances of wind-dispersed seeds (Tackenberg 2003) and the behaviour of most other vectors, e.g. water or animals ( Westcott et al. 2005 ).”
- A mechanistic simulation model of seed dispersal by animals (2008, background): “Nevertheless, only few studies have tried to amend models of animal movement with routines for seed dispersal (exceptions are, for example, Westcott et al. 2005, Morales & Carlo 2006, Russo et al. 2006 and Couvreur et al. 2007).”
- What is long‐distance dispersal? And a taxonomy of dispersal events (2017, background): “For example, local, within-population dispersal events may vary enormously in terms of genetic effects and local structuring of the genetic pools depending on whether they specifically contribute SDDloc or, instead, LDDloc.”
- Do larger frugivores move seeds further? Body size, seed dispersal distance, and a case study of a large, sedentary pigeon (2012, background): “One of the advantages of mechanistic models is that they can identify the key factors influencing the dispersal process (Nathan & Muller-Landau, 2000; Westcott et al., 2005).”
- A synthesis of empirical plant dispersal kernels (2017, background): “It is likely that habitat type and structure will affect the dispersal process (Westcott et al. 2005; Trakhtenbrot, Katul & Nathan 2014) and so more formal contrasts of kernels among habitat types would allow characterization of intraspecific variation in dispersal.”
- Large frugivorous birds facilitate functional connectivity of fragmented landscapes (2014, methodology): “This approach has been used mostly for quantifying shortdistance seed dispersal within forest patches (Murray 1988; Sun et al. 1997; Holbrook & Smith 2000; Westcott & Graham 2000; Westcott et al. 2005).”
