Impact of farm size and topography on plant and insect diversity of managed grasslands in the Alps (2009, background): “However, as this process is related to many socio-economic variables, interdisciplinary studies are urgently needed to evaluate different future scenarios prior to implementing any policy-making (Norris, 2008).”
Forest loss or management intensification? Identifying causes of mammal decline in cacao agroforests (2014, background): “Strategies attempting to reconcile agricultural production and biodiversity conservation focus on the balance between land-use intensification and amount of native vegetation cover (Fischer et al., 2005; Norris, 2008).”
Predation by small mammalian carnivores in rural agro-ecosystems: An undervalued ecosystem service? (2017, background): “First, rural agricultural landscapes are often structurally complex and heterogeneous (Donald, 2004) which seems to support higher animal diversity (Norris, 2008).”
Mainstreaming ecosystem services through reformed European agricultural policies (2012, background): “However, while agricultural improvements have greatly increased global food supply, many of them are having inadvertent detrimental impacts on other ecosystem services and biodiversity (Norris 2008).”
