Does Urbanization Filter Birds on the Basis of Their Biological Traits (2008, background): “Along such a gradient, landscape modifications or variations in habitat quality seem to be more relevant factors explaining species distribution variations (Clergeau et al. 2001, Mörtberg 2001, Melles et al. 2003, Donnelly and Marzluff 2006, Sandström et al. 2006).”
Habitat selection of breeding riparian birds in an urban environment: untangling the relative importance of biophysical elements and spatial scale (2011, background): “…patterns (within 1 km2) to be most significant (Saab, 1999; Rodewald & Bakermans, 2006), others found proximate features produced the best habitat models (Donnelly & Marzluff, 2006), suggesting that responses to landscape-scale features can vary with species, region and study design.”
The influence of native versus exotic streetscape vegetation on the spatial distribution of birds in suburbs and reserves (2013, background): “Previous studies, however, have effectively grouped birds by their functional responses to urbanization (e.g. Crooks et al., 2004; Donnelly & Marzluff, 2006; Catterall, 2009; Huste & Boulinier, 2011).”
Ecological and Psychological Value of Urban Green Space (2010, background): “For a given total area of green space, the spatial configuration of the component patches is also likely to play a role in its biodiversity value ( Donnelly and Marzluff, 2006 ).”
How many birds are there in a city of half a million people? (2009, background): “…(Kerr & Currie, 1995; Gaston, 2005; Luck, 2007), but local gradients of species richness with urbanization range from negative (Zanette et al ., 2005; Donnelly & Marzluff, 2006; Sandström et al ., 2006), through peaks at intermediate levels of urbanization (Kowarik, 1990; Blair, 2001; Clergeau…”
