Global patterns and predictors of bird species responses to forest fragmentation: Implications for ecosystem function and conservation (2014, background): “…anthropogenic effects on the function of forest ecosystems has been highlighted by numerous studies (e.g. Van Nouhyus, 2005; Sekercioglu, 2012; Newbold et al., 2013), few generalities have emerged about the impacts of fragmentation on different functional groups of organisms (Watson et al., 2005).”
Habitat diversity, ecological requirements of species and the Small Island Effect (2009, background): “At the same time, the area-related ‘incidence functions’ have not been addressed accordingly (but see Watson et al ., 2005), despite the fact that such incidence functions would be directly related to the SIE, since small island communities are formed in response to the minimum area requirements of…”
The effects of forest patch size and matrix type on changes in carabid beetle assemblages in an urbanized landscape (2008, background): “…area and distance to the edge was a more important determinant of patterns in beetle community composition than direct edge or area effects per se (Ewers et al. 2007), although the influence of differing surrounding matrices in an urban context has been less well studied (Watson et al., 2005).”
Landscape effects on the complex of Bactrocera oleae parasitoids and implications for conservation biological control (2009, background): “L. Boccaccio (&) R. Petacchi Landscape Entomology Laboratory, BioLabs, Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna, Pisa, Italy e-mail: boccaccio@sssup.it Crist 2004) and configuration (Chust et al. 2007; Dormann et al. 2007; Harrison and Bruna 1999; Radford et al. 2005; Schweiger et al. 2005; Watson et al. 2005).”
Richness and composition of plants and birds on land‐bridge islands: effects of island attributes and differential responses of species groups (2012, background): “…from changes in topographic complexity, elevational range, fragment orientation, fragment shape and amount of edge habitat (Murcia, 1995; Morrison, 2002; Hill & Curran, 2003; Ries et al., 2004; Ewers & Didham, 2005; Watson et al., 2005; Radford & Bennett, 2007; Laurance, 2008; Hortal et al., 2009).”
Extinction debt or habitat change? - Ongoing losses of woodland birds in north-eastern New South Wales, Australia (2009, background): “Both species appear sensitive to patch size and isolation (Seddon et al. 2003; Watson et al. 2005; Maron and Lill 2006).”
Conservation Biogeography: assessment and prospect (2005, background): “Each of these assumptions is problematic (Whittaker, 1998; Watson et al., 2005).”
The spatial distribution of birds and carabid beetles in pine plantation forests: the role of landscape composition and structure (2007, unknown): “Two recent studies also suggest that matrix composition has a direct influence on post-disturbance colonization (Brotons et al., 2005) and responses to habitat fragmentation among different landscapes (Watson et al., 2005).”
