Citations in the corpus

• NEST PREDATION IN AN URBANIZING LANDSCAPE:THE ROLE OF EXOTIC SHRUBS (2004, background): “…that landscape-scale factors such as amount of fragmentation and amount of regional forest cover (Robinson et al. 1995, Flather and Sauer 1996, Thompson et al. 2002) and even specific land uses (Rodewald and Yahner 2001a, b, Rodewald 2002) can increase rates of nest predation for forest birds.”
• MIXED-GRASS PRAIRIE PASSERINES EXHIBIT WEAK AND VARIABLE RESPONSES TO PATCH SIZE (2006, background): “Much of our current understanding of the demographic eff ects of habitat fragmentation on birds is derived from passerine studies in forests (Thompson et al. 2002) and tallgrass prairie (Johnson and Temple 1986, 1990; Winter and Faaborg 1999; Winter et al. 2000).”
• Nest Predators and Fragmentation: a Review and Meta‐Analysis (2002, background): “Tewksbury et al. (1998) suggest that fragmentation of western forests, for example, may lead to declines of nest-predator species, whereas fragmentation of midwestern forests may conversely augment populations of nest predators (Thompson et al. 2002).”
• LINKING DEMOGRAPHIC EFFECTS OF HABITAT FRAGMENTATION ACROSS LANDSCAPES TO CONTINENTAL SOURCE-SINK DYNAMICS (2005, background): “For example, fragmentation may increase the abundance of generalist nest predators and the brood-parasitic Brown-headed Cowbird (Molothrus ater), which are largely associated with developed and agricultural habitats, but which also enter adjoining forest (reviewed in Thompson et al. 2002).”
• The response of tree squirrels to fragmentation: a review and synthesis (2005, background): “Higher levels of nest predation are often, but not always, reported in forest fragments (For reviews, see Robinson et al., 1995; Chalfoun, Thompson & Ratnaswamy, 2002; Thompson et al., 2002).”
