Functional homogenization of bird communities along habitat gradients: accounting for niche multidimensionality (2010, background): “There is an important body of evidence relating human-driven habitat alteration and destruction to the widespread decline of specialist organisms (e.g. Foufopoulos & Ives, 1999; Owens & Bennet, 2000; Julliard et al., 2004).”
Hypotheses to explain patterns of population change among breeding bird species in England (2010, background): “Within Europe, species with more northerly breeding ranges and lower tolerance of maximum temperatures at the southern edge of their range have shown largest declines within Europe, representing responses to climate change (Julliard et al., 2004; Jiguet et al., 2007; Lemoine et al., 2007).”
An elevational shift in butterfly species richness and composition accompanying recent climate change (2007, background): “Recent studies of changes to species composition have shown an increasing domination of communities by generalist taxa, while habitat-specialists, rare species and species with more northerly distributions have declined (Warren et al., 2001; Julliard et al., 2003; Lavergne et al., 2006; Menéndez et ”
Populations of migratory bird species that did not show a phenological response to climate change are declining (2008, background): “This result is consistent with previous findings (16), and it can be reconciled with the observed stronger effects of climate change on biological diversity at northern latitudes in the boreal region (1, 2).”
Effects of climate-induced coral bleaching on coral-reef fishes - ecological and economic consequences (2008, background): “…and limited ecological versatility that are most at risk of extinction from climate change and associated habitat degradation (owens & bennett 2000, Julliard et al. 2003). similarly, in marine systems it is rare, endemic and highly specialised coral-reef fishes that have recently disappeared or…”
Habitat loss, resource specialization, and extinction on coral reefs (2004, background): “…animals (e.g. insects: Hughes et al. (2000) and Kotze & O’Hara (2003); reptiles: Foufopoulos & Ives (1999); birds: Owens & Bennett (2000) and Julliard et al. (2004); mammals: Harcourt et al. (2002) and Fisher et al. (2003)), it is not clear if it has a similar effect on marine animals…”
Climate envelope, life history traits and the resilience of birds facing global change (2007, methodology): “…agreement between species trends found in France and in Europe (as a whole or in individual Western European countries with comparable surveys; Julliard et al., 2004), suggesting that common large-scale influences drive the long-term r 2007 The Authors Journal compilation r 2007 Blackwell…”
Securing the conservation of biodiversity across administrative levels and spatial, temporal, and ecological scales - Research needs and approaches of the SCALES project (2010, methodology): “Based on existing spe cies distribution data (collected using intensive monitoring schemes, such as the French breeding bird survey,STOC; Julliard et al. 2003), the efficiency of existing scalable monitoring schemes is being evaluated.”
Rise of the generalists: evidence for climate driven homogenization in avian communities (2012, background): “Specialist species 87 with small range-restricted populations are thought to be particularly vulnerable to extinction 88 as a result of environmental change (McKinney, 1997; McKinney & Lockwood, 1999; Gaston & 89 Blackburn 2002; Julliard et al. 2003).”
Potential impact of climate change on aquatic insects: A sensitivity analysis for European caddisflies (Trichoptera) based on distribution patterns and ecological preferences (2009, background): “…on biodiversity patterns has been investigated and predicted in a large number of recent case studies addressing mammals (Guralnick, 2007), birds (Julliard et al. , 2004), amphibians (Pounds et al. , 2006), terrestrial insects (Wilson et al. , 2005), spiders (Gobbi et al. , 2006), terrestrial…”
A global threats overview for Numeniini populations: synthesising expert knowledge for a group of declining migratory birds (2017, background): “More detailed analyses of population trends in well-studied European populations suggests that habitat-specialists, ground-nesting species and long-distance migrants are among the species with the most negative population trends (Julliard et al. 2003, Thaxter et al. 2010, Sullivan et al. 2015).”
French citizens monitoring ordinary birds provide tools for conservation and ecological sciences (2012, background): “These habitat classes are especially used to determine the habitat preferences of the surveyed species, and estimate a habitat specialization index for each species (called Species Specialization Index, SSI; Julliard et al., 2003, 2006).”
Climate change and its impact on Australia's avifauna (2005, background): “Examination of population trends in 77 species of common birds in France over the period 1989–2002 indicated that species with northern breeding distributions were more likely to have declined than those with southern distributions (Julliard et al. 2004).”
