Habitat-suitability modelling to assess the effects of land-use changes on Dupont’s lark Chersophilus duponti: A case study in the Layna Important Bird Area (2006, unknown): “…with direct predictors with immediate links with the species biology are difficult to generate for large areas, while coarse-grained models, whose interest rest more in their predictive ability, may be hard to understand (Bailey et al., 2002; Grand and Cushman, 2003; Bustamante and Seoane, 2004).”
Effects of habitat loss and fragmentation on amphibians: A review and prospectus (2006, background): “The environmental patterns that are important at one scale for a species may not be those that influence it at coarser or finer scales (Grand and Cushman, 2003).”
The influence of landscape, patch, and within-patch factors on species presence and abundance: a review of focal patch studies (2010, methodology): “…employ a variance or hierarchical partitioning approach in multi-level studies that would enable a comparison of the ‘‘amount of variation explained’’ across all three levels as a measure of relative influence (e.g., Cushman and McGarigal 2002; Grand and Cushman 2003; Grand and Mello 2004).”
Modelling breeding habitat preferences of Bonelli’s eagle (Hieraaetus fasciatus) in relation to topography, disturbance, climate and land use at different spatial scales (2005, methodology): “Multi-colinearity test based on the variance inflation factor (VIF) analysis was calculated (Montgomery and Peck 1982) in order to avoid overparametrisation (Edwards 1985; Grand and Cushman 2003; Hobson et al. 2000; Kirk et al. 2001; Poirazidis et al. 2004).”
A Multiscale Landscape Approach to Predicting Bird and Moth Rarity Hotspots in a Threatened Pitch Pine–Scrub Oak Community (2004, background): “This approach was justifiable given that many species, particularly birds, are strongly influenced by landscape- and patch-level variables (e.g., McGarigal & McComb 1995; Mazerolle & Villard 1999; Saab 1999; Illera 2001; Lee et al. 2002; Grand & Cushman 2003).”
Linking fish and prawns to their environment: a hierarchical landscape approach (2004, background): “…and abundance (Ricklefs 1987, Urban et al. 1987, Allen & Hoekstra 1992, Holling 1992, Schneider 2001, Cushman & McGarigal 2002, Lee et al. 2002, Grand & Cushman 2003) and that most species (and even different life stages) experience and respond to the environment differently and at their own…”
