Dissecting components of population‐level variation in seed production and the evolution of masting behavior (2003, background): “…to synchrony in seed production by species complexes within a community and over a large geographic area where they share seed predators, such as appears to be the case for the Dipterocarp forests of Malasia (Curran and Leighton 2000) and the alpine grasslands of New Zealand (Kelly et al. 2000).”
Reproductive phenology over a 10‐year period in a lowland evergreen rain forest of central Borneo (2007, neutral): “1999; Curran & Leighton 2000; Curran & Webb 2000).”
The Role of Mammals in Creating and Modifying Seedshadows in Tropical Forests and Some Possible Consequences of Their Elimination (2007, background): “Wild (S. scrofa) and bearded pigs (S. barbatus) are two of the most important predators of fallen fruits and seeds in Southeast Asia and are particularly important predators of mast fruiting species in this region (Curran & Leighton 2000, Curran & Webb 2000).”
Age-Related Changes in Tree Growth and Functional Biology: The Role of Reproduction (2011, background): “For example, mast fruiting patterns in the forests of Southeast Asia and parts of the temperate zone largely determine population dynamics of regenerating seedlings, of organisms that depend on seeds as resources, and through trophic cascades have large impacts on many organisms within the ecosystem”
MASTING BY EIGHTEEN NEW ZEALAND PLANT SPECIES: THE ROLE OF TEMPERATURE AS A SYNCHRONIZING CUE (2002, background): “The fitness benefits accrued by plants and the effects of masting on other ecosystem components are mediated by the spatial and taxonomic extent of masting synchrony (Curran and Leighton 2000).”
Flowering Patterns in a Seasonal Tropical Lowland Forest in Western Amazonia (2008, background): “…have been argued to be the main advantage of phenological synchronization in a variety of tropical environments, including the masting patterns typical of many forests in SE Asia (Janzen 1971, Augspurger 1981, Ashton et al. 1988, Curran & Webb 2000, Curran & Leighton 2000, but see Sakai 2002).”
What can we learn from resource pulses? (2008, background): “…dipterocarp forest: although opportunistic residents were able to consume many fruits before the arrival of mobile specialists, the local density of nomadic consumers increased by behavioral aggregation well before the reproductive increases of opportunistic residents (Curran and Leighton 2000).”
How do vertebrates respond to mast seeding (2016, background): “Based on inspection of 95% confi dence limits, this diff erence was driven by four signifi cant diff erences among four taxonomic groups: rodents were overrepresented in TS studies, passerines were under-represented in NT studies, Galliformes were over-represented in NT studies, and carnivores were ”
EFFECTS OF SMALL RODENTS AND LARGE MAMMALS ON NEOTROPICAL SEEDS (2004, background): “Although rarely employed in tropical plant–animal studies (but see Hoch and Adler 1997, Curran and Leighton 2000), both the biomass and composition of seed predators and their effects on prey (seeds) must be measured concurrently to determine these interactions and the specific context of these…”
Long‐term seed survival and dispersal dynamics in a rodent‐dispersed tree: testing the predator satiation hypothesis and the predator dispersal hypothesis (2013, background): “In tropical Asia, reproductive synchrony among sympatric Dipterocarpaceae species increased seed escape from vertebrate predation and subsequently seedling establishment (Curran & Leighton 2000; Curran & Webb 2000).”
Synchrony and asynchrony: observations and hypotheses for the flowering wave in a long‐lived semelparous bamboo (2004, background): “However, Curran & Leighton (2000) and Curran & Webb (2000) found that predator satiation in a dipterocarp mast-fruiting event occurred at larger, landscape scales.”
Examining protected area effectiveness in Sumatra: importance of regulations governing unprotected lands (2012, background): “Logging has been shown to increase fire vulnerability (Nepstad et al. 1999; Siegert et al. 2001), and to impart major effects on canopy tree regeneration and vertebrates (Curran & Leighton 2000; Curran & Webb 2000).”
Forest Elephants: Tree Planters of the Congo (2009, background): “Superior ranging ability also allows larger animals to move long distances into areas of high fruit availability enabling them to access and consume more fruits and thus disperse more seeds (Curran & Leighton 2000, Curran & Received 26 July 2008; revision accepted 21 December 2008.”
