Beyond trees: Biogeographical regionalization of tropical Africa (2018, background): “The development of computer-based categorization in parallel with the increasing availability of centralized species occurrence databases (Lavoie, 2013) has opened up the way for “numerical” biogeographical regionalization at global (Ficetola, Mazel, & Thuiller, 2017; Vilhena & Antonelli, 2015) and ”
Multidimensional biases, gaps and uncertainties in global plant occurrence information. (2016, background): “Potential uses of DAI are manifold (Lavoie 2013), spanning research on diversity patterns (Morueta-Holme et al.”
Natural History's Place in Science and Society (2014, background): “The general trend in natural history collections has been toward consolidation, not expansion, in spite of the increased use of specimens in global climate change research and ecoinformatics (Ward 2012, Lavoie 2013).”
Assessing the Relevance of Herbarium Collections as Tools for Conservation Biology (2017, background): “(2004) intended to reconstruct phenological changes through time using herbarium specimens (Lavoie, 2013).”
The unrealized potential of herbaria for global change biology (2017, background): “The value of such data is now well recognized (Lavoie & Lachance 2006; Pyke & Ehrlich 2010; Johnson et al., 2011; Lavoie 2013; Vellend et al., 2013; Willis et al., 2017a).”
