• THE MATRIX ENHANCES THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CORRIDORS AND STEPPING STONES (2004, background): “The presence of other species (i.e., competitors, predators, or mutualists) within habitat patches and the matrix also may significantly alter connectivity (e.g., Fraser et al. 1995, Melian and Bascompte 2002, Tscharntke et al. 2002, Schmitt and Holbrook 2003, Cronin et al. 2004, Denno et al. 2004).”
• Network analysis in conservation biogeography: challenges and opportunities (2010, background): “Several researchers have recently started to discuss and apply an integrative networkbased approach that combines food web dynamics and dispersal processes (e.g. Melian & Bascompte, 2002; Brose et al., 2005; Holland & Hastings, 2008), but we expect to see many further advances in this area.”
• Effects of agriculture expansion and intensification on the vertebrate and invertebrate diversity in the Pampas of Argentina (2011, background): “…than extinction of particular taxa, but their consequences for biodiversity are no less real, because trophic networks are strongly associated with the stability and functioning of the ecosystems in which they occur (Melián and Bascompte 2002; Ives and Cardinale 2004; Montoya et al. 2006).”
• Spillover edge effects: the dispersal of agriculturally subsidized insect natural enemies into adjacent natural habitats. (2006, background): “An increasing number have explicitly examined the potential effects of habitat loss on food web structure or predator–prey interactions (Kareiva & Wennergren 1995; Bascompte & Solé 1998; Holt et al. 1999; Swihart et al. 2001; Melian & Bascompte 2002).”
