• Urbanization and the Predation Paradox: The Role of Trophic Dynamics in Structuring Vertebrate Communities (2012, background): “Other mammalian predators, such as the raccoon (Procyon lotor), make use of a wide variety of natural and human-disturbed habitats and reach higher densities in cities (Prange et al. 2003).”
• Trophic Dynamics in Urban Communities (2005, background): “However, Patten and Bolger (2003) indicate that bird responses to urban fragmentation in these coastal scrub habitats are highly species specific, change ontogenetically, and are not predictable on the basis of predator abundance alone.”
• Adaptive phenotypic plasticity in an island songbird exposed to a novel predation risk (2008, unknown): “For example, shrub nests are generally thought to be more vulnerable to avian predators, whereas ground nests are thought to be more vulnerable to snakes and mammalian predators (Martin 1987; Nour et al. 1993; So¨derstro¨m et al. 1998; Patten and Bolger 2003 ).”
• Changes in mesopredator-community structure in response to urbanization (2004, background): “Alterations in community composition and structure often occur as a consequence of habitat fragmentation, and the response of species to fragmentation in urbanized landscapes has been the subject of much recent research (Crooks 2002; Fernández-Juricic 2002; Tigas et al. 2002; Patten and Bolger 2003;”
• Ecological traps in isodars: effects of tallgrass prairie management on bird nest success (2005, background): “The ecological trap we describe involves bottomup cues upon which birds select nest sites and top-down control of nest success, with both bottom-up and topdown processes varying across the landscape (Patten and Bolger 2003).”
• Urban ecological systems: scientific foundations and a decade of progress. (2011, background): “In addition, human subsidies are thought to lead to artificially elevated densities for some predators, like cats and corvid birds, though this does not always result in elevated predation rates (Marzluff et al., 2001; Patten and Bolger, 2003; Rodewald and Shustack, 2008b).”
