Large trees are keystone structures in urban parks (2012, background): “However, the protection and perpetuation of large trees in urban areas sometimes conflicts with other urban policies, such as public safety measures (e.g., Carpaneto et al. 2010) and sustainable growth strategies that increase residential density (Pauleit et al. 2005).”
“Primeval forest relict beetles” of Central Europe: a set of 168 umbrella species for the protection of primeval forest remnants (2018, background): “Some of these Habitat Directive species have become increasingly relevant in urban and rural landscape management, such as Osmoderma eremita (Carpaneto et al. 2010).”
A Red List of Italian Saproxylic Beetles: taxonomic overview, ecological features and conservation issues (Coleoptera) (2015, methodology): “Finally, merging the directions given by several authors (Bracco et al. 2001; Audisio et al. 2003; Ranius et al. 2005; Carpaneto et al. 2010; Fabbri & Pizzetti 2011) with those that arose during the preparation of this review, we give some guidelines for selecting the actions of more general…”
