A Classification of Ecological Boundaries (2003, background): “The second scale attribute commonly considered by landscape ecologists is extent (Turner et al. 2001), the absolute physical size of a structure (figure 1d, 1e).”
A methodological protocol for Annex i Habitats monitoring: The contribution of vegetation science (2016, background): “…and Habitats are intrinsically scale-dependent units, basically ruled by species size, growth patterns and interactions among plant individuals, as well as by the physical and ecological heterogeneity (GreigSmith, 1979; Palmer, 1988; Dale, 1999; Turner et al., 2001; Gigante et al., 2016b).”
Geomorphology and ecology: Unifying themes for complex systems in biogeomorphology (2006, background): “Hierarchy theory in ecology similarly recognizes that the coupling among processes operating at different scales can vary from strong to weak (Turner et al., 2001).”
Spatiotemporal Distribution of Black Bear–Human Conflicts in Colorado, USA (2008, positive): “Different analysis scales can produce different results (Turner et al. 2001, Dungan et al. 2002), and choosing the appropriate grid cell size (grain) and analysis neighborhood (distance d) for the Getis–Ord statistic depends in part on the analysis goal which, in our study, was management oriented.”
A comprehensive framework for global patterns in biodiversity (2004, background): “These innovations have included supply-side ecology (Roughgarden et al. 1987), metapopulation dynamics (Hanski & Gilpin 1997), landscape ecology (Turner et al. 2001), mass effects (Shmida & Wilson 1985), source–sink relationships (Pulliam 1988), Rapaport’s rule (Stevens 1989) and macroecology…”
Principles of Terrestrial Ecosystem Ecology (2002, background): “…were thought to have properties that reflected (1) largely closed systems dominated by internal recycling of elements, (2) self-regulation and deterministic dynamics, (3) stable end points or cycles, and (4) absence of disturbance and human influence (Pickett et al. 1994, Turner et al. 2001).”
The Eco-field Hypothesis: Toward a Cognitive Landscape (2005, background): “Some definitions have emerged from a dynamic view of the landscape (Antrop 1998) in which processes and patterns in turn influence individual, populations, communities and resources (Turner 1989; Risser 1989; Milne 1992; O’Neill 1999; Turner et al. 2001).”
Do landscape heterogeneity and water distribution explain aspects of elephant home range in southern Africa's arid savannas? (2008, background): “Indices of landscape heterogeneity should vary across landscapes (Turner et al., 2001; Wiens et al., 1993) and we therefore treated the three study areas that are situated on different substrates and along a rainfall gradient, separately.”
Beyond description: the active and effective way to infer processes from spatial patterns. (2009, background): “…(1) various processes may create the same pattern (Cale et al. 1989, Perry et al. 2006); (2) causality may not be straightforward (Rees et al. 1996, Turner et al. 2001) (e.g., well-defined nonrandom processes can produce patterns indistinguishable from apparent random assembly; Cale et al. 1989,…”
LANDSCAPE VS. LOCAL HABITAT SCALE INFLUENCES TO INSECT COMMUNITIES FROM TALLGRASS PRAIRIE REMNANTS (2004, neutral): “Habitat loss, fragmentation, and modiﬁcation are major anthropogenic processes affecting ecosystems at a global level (Saunders et al. 1991, Kruess and Tscharntke 1994, Forman 1995, Turner et al. 2001).”
