• Antarctic terrestrial biodiversity in a changing world (2011, background): “An ongoing limitation to terrestrial biological research in Antarctica is that, for many groups, baseline survey data and full taxonomic treatments are often unavailable (e.g. Adams et al. 2006; Chown and Convey 2007; Peat et al. 2007).”
• Mycorrhizas and dark septate root endophytes in polar regions (2009, background): “…impose strong selection pressures on plants inhabiting such regions, leading to prostrate, cushion-forming life forms with aerodynamically smooth canopies, fewer woody species and reduced species richness at higher latitudes, both in Arctic and Antarctic ecosystems (Rannie 1986; Peat et al. 2007).”
• Terrestrial biodiversity in Antarctica - recent advances and future challenges (2010, background): “However, there remain considerable gaps in knowledge, both in taxonomic (i.e. within all higher taxonomic groups present, even those that are ‘better known’) and geographic (i.e. spatial distribution of survey effort) contexts (Adams et al., 2006; Chown and Convey, 2007; Peat et al., 2007).”
• Surviving out in the cold: Antarctic endemic invertebrates and their refugia (2008, background): “Other likely ice-free and vegetated locations and potential refugia are identified in a recent review of the Antarctic flora (Peat et al., 2007).”
• Orchid biogeography and factors associated with rarity in a biodiversity hotspot, the Southwest Australian Floristic Region (2011, methodology): “Distributional extent was quantified by using the number of quarterdegree grid squares from which a taxon was recorded in the Western Australian Herbarium (e.g. Peat et al., 2007).”
• The spatial structure of Antarctic biodiversity (2014, background): “These broad-scale patterns hide considerable complexity within regions (e.g., Chown et al. 1998, Adams et al. 2006, Stevens et al. 2006a, Peat et al. 2007, Shaw et al. 2010, Green et al. 2011b, Casanovas et al. 2013), particularly relating to the imprint of glacial history and biogeographic…”
• The thermal limits to life on Earth (2014, background): “In Antarctica, lichens extend further south than either mosses or vascular plants (Peat et al. 2007), suggesting that they are more tolerant of very low temperatures and the associated aridity.”
• Conservation biogeography of the Antarctic (2012, methodology): “Some of the data used here (e.g. plant data from British Antarctic Survey and the Australian Antarctic Division Herbarium) have been described elsewhere (e.g. Peat et al., 2007).”
• Detecting and mapping vegetation distribution on the Antarctic Peninsula from remote sensing data (2011, background): “An overview of the vegetation of the Antarctic Peninsula region is provided by Smith (1996) and of Antarctic botanical records and general biogeographical patterns by Peat et al. (2007).”
• Functional and spatial pressures on terrestrial vegetation in Antarctica forced by global warming (2011, methodology): “The southernmost flowering plants (Deschampsia antarctica) lie just to the north of point 1 means that there is no correlation between biodiversity and both latitude and mean annual temperature (Peat et al. 2007; Green et al. 2007; Howard-Williams et al. 2010).”
