Native plants improve breeding and foraging habitat for an insectivorous bird (2017, methodology): “…calculated relative dominance (basal area/ total basal area) and relative density (tree count/total tree count) for each tree species in order to create arelative importance value which is the sum of relative density and relative dominance (hereafter: importance value, Holmes and Robinson, 1981).”
Effects of floristics, physiognomy and non‐native vegetation on riparian bird communities in a Mojave Desert watershed (2003, background): “Moreover, while actions taken to return ‘natural’ disturbance processes to an ecosystem have considerable biological benefits, it is unclear how successful those actions will be in terms of reestablishing target species (Sher, Marshall & Gilbert 2000; Walters et al . 2000; Swengel 2001; Gabbe, Robi”
Relationships between bird species and tree species assemblages in forested habitats of eastern North America (2005, background): “Part of the association of birds with floristics no doubt comes from observations that woodland or forest bird species may preferentially forage on certain tree species (e.g. Holmes et al., 1979; Robinson & Holmes, 1984; Recher & Davis, 1997; Gabbe et al., 2002).”
