- Effect of local weather on butterfly flight behaviour, movement, and colonization: significance for dispersal under climate change (2011, background): “We expected an increase in cloudiness to shorten flying bouts, reduce the tendency to start flying, and decrease the proportion of time spent flying (after Dennis and Sparks 2006).”
- Distance sampling and the challenge of monitoring butterfly populations (2011, unknown): “…conditions (Pollard & Yates 1993) were observed during both studies presented here, but it is likely that variation in weather above these minima exerts a strong influence on butterfly behaviour that have knock-on effects for detectability (Dennis & Sparks 2006; Wikstrom, Milberg, & Bergman 2009).”
- Human impacts on environment–diversity relationships: evidence for biotic homogenization from butterfly species richness patterns (2007, background): “Butterfly metabolism and behaviour are known to depend strongly on climatic conditions (Kukal et al. , 1991; Watt, 2003; Dennis & Sparks, 2006), so this taxon is especially well suited for investigations of the species richness–energy hypothesis.”
- The influences of landscape structure on butterfly distribution and movement: a review (2009, background): “…(i.e. ‘matrix’) may be driven by survey protocols that only identify resources used within a narrow band of environmental conditions (e.g. using classic butterfly transects: Hall 1981) and are therefore unable to detect vital resources used in inclement weather (e.g. Dennis and Sparks 2006).”
