Biodiversity, Urban Areas, and Agriculture: Locating Priority Ecoregions for Conservation (2003, background): “5; this difference is probably because Stein et al. (2000) based their analyses on states, which are larger in the west.”
Comparative influence of spatial scale on beta diversity within regional assemblages of birds and butterflies (2004, background): “However, evidence on correlation in species richness among taxonomic groups at scales associated with ecoregional assessment is more equivocal (Olson & Dinerstein, 1998; Ricketts et al., 1999; Stein et al., 2000).”
Reed Canary Grass (Phalaris arundinacea) as a Biological Model in the Study of Plant Invasions (2004, background): “Invasive species have had and will continue to have large impacts on native species and community structure (Williamson, 1996; Wilcove et al., 1998; Parker et al., 1999; Mack et al., 2000; Sala et al., 2000; Stein et al., 2000) and to dramatically alter ecosystem processes (D’Antonio and Vitousek, 1”
Monitoring change in the abundance and distribution of insects using butterflies and other indicator groups (2005, background): “(b) Butterfly lifestyles Being terrestrial in all stages of their life-cycle, butterflies are clearly inappropriate indicators of freshwater species, whose declines are believed to be substantially greater than those of terrestrial ones (e.g. Shirt 1987; Master et al. 2000).”
Alien predators and amphibian declines: review of two decades of science and the transition to conservation (2003, background): “Alien species introduced from one continent to another (e.g. Stein et al., 2000), often have negative impacts on amphibians (Tables 1 and 2).”
State of the world's freshwater ecosystems: physical, chemical, and biological changes. (2011, background): “High-profile terrestrial taxonomic groups have lower rates of imperilment (birds 14%, mammals 16%) (129).”
Utility and limitations of species richness metrics for conservation planning (2006, methodology): “For example, methods have been formulated to prioritize hotspots by incorporating explicit information on the vulnerability of particular locations to biodiversity loss, our ability to manage threats, and whether locations will accommodate ecological and evolutionary processes necessary to maintain ”
Risks of biological control for conservation purposes (2012, background): “Keywords Climate change Dispersal Ecosystem impact Indirect effect Non-target host Risk assessment”
