Persistent negative effects of pesticides on biodiversity and biological control potential on European farmland (2010, background): “Such large-scale effects will be especially relevant for taxa that utilize large areas, such as birds, mammals, butterflies (Rundlöf, Bengtsson, & Smith, 2008) and bees (Clough et al., 2007; Holzschuh, SteffanDewenter, & Tscharntke, 2008).”
Intensification of agriculture, landscape composition and wild bee communities: a large scale study in four European countries. (2010, background): “Recent studies mostly aim at comparing organic and conventional agriculture (Clough et al., 2007; Holzschuh et al., 2007, 2008; Kremen et al., 2002; Winfree et al., 2008, on the whole bee community; Ekroos et al., 2008; Rundlöf et al., 2008 on bumblebees).”
Effects of land management on the abundance and richness of spiders (Araneae): A meta-analysis (2011, background): “…of studies indicated significant negative effects of land management and even some studies found positive effects of management on species richness (Clough et al., 2007; Horváth et al., 2000; Jennings et al., 1988; Johnson, 1995; Tahir and Butt, 2009) or abundance (Buddle et al., 2004; Halaj et…”
Homogenization of lepidopteran communities in intensively cultivated agricultural landscapes (2010, background): “…studies on farmland biodiversity have addressed the effects of habitat connectivity, landscape heterogeneity and farming systems on species richness, functional diversity and community similarity (Schweiger et al. 2005; Clough et al. 2007; Diekötter, Billeter & Crist 2008; Flynn et al. 2009).”
Landscape moderation of biodiversity patterns and processes ‐ eight hypotheses (2012, background): “…and in some cases not at all, related to local alpha diversity, to contribute much more to overall diversity than does the latter, and generally, to be a better indicator of overall biodiversity patterns (Clough et al., 2007; Hendrickx et al., 2007; Kessler et al., 2009; Flohre et al., 2011).”
Diversity patterns of wild bees and wasps in managed boreal forests: Effects of spatial structure, local habitat and surrounding landscape (2015, background): “Other arthropod studies have also revealed rather high levels of beta diversity on a large spatial scale, which can be explained by differences in habitat characteristics or species pools between regions (Clough et al. 2007; Murray et al. 2011).”
Contrasting patterns in species and functional-trait diversity of bees in an agricultural landscape (2015, background): “Diversity usually declines as management intensity increases (e.g. Hole et al. 2005; Clough et al. 2007; Rundl€ of, Nilsson & Smith 2008; Bat ary et al. 2011; though see Brittain et al. 2010; Kehinde & Samways 2012), and aspects of organic farming, such as flowering weed abundance, lack of insectici”
Impacts of agricultural intensification on bird communities: New insights from a multi-level and multi-facet approach of biodiversity (2016, background): “…and the scale dependency in individual responses to agricultural intensification may lead to a simplistic view of biodiversity dynamics in farmlands and jeopardises the specific conservation efforts that should be implemented (Clough et al., 2007; Gabriel et al., 2010; Hendrickx et al., 2007).”
