Landscape structure as an indicator of biodiversity: matrix effects on species richness (2003, background): “Landscape features might be useful predictors for the management of species richness at the landscape level (Franklin, 1993; Baudry et al., 2000; but see Araujo et al., 2001 ), but their impacts on species richness at any one point in a landscape act at multiple scales (Debinski et al., 2001).”
Do we need land‐cover data to model species distributions in Europe? (2004, background): “Terrestrial vertebrates include all known species (Araújo et al., 2001) whereas plants comprise only c. 20% of the European flora (Humphries et al., 1999).”
Vicariance and endemism in a Neotropical savanna hotspot: distribution patterns of Cerrado squamate reptiles (2011, background): “The biogeographical patterns found in squamates may be shared with other taxonomic groups with relatively limited ranges and dispersal abilities, where historical processes of vicariant speciation are strong drivers of diversity (Araújo et al., 2001).”
Capturing biodiversity: selecting priority areas for conservation using different criteria (2005, background): “This recovery rate is also higher than reported in the study by Araujo et al. (2001), who tested the performance of an ED network for the representation of different taxa in Europe.”
Conservation Biogeography: assessment and prospect (2005, background): “For example, Araújo et al. (2001) showed that European plants exhibited consistent non-random positive patterns of representation with conservation areas selected to maximise pattern variation among environmental domains, but that terrestrial vertebrates (especially reptiles and amphibians) were…”
Broad‐scale patterns of body size in squamate reptiles of Europe and North America (2006, background): “Data from Belarus, Russia and Ukraine in continental Europe were discarded because of incomplete sampling (Gasc et al., 1997; Meliadou & Troumbis, 1997; Araújo et al., 2001).”
Species, Data, and Conservation Planning (2004, unknown): “For example, Araújo et al. (2001) found that the selection of the set of 52 cells that maximized ED represented 83% of all bird species.”
Effects of restricting environmental range of data to project current and future species distributions (2004, background): “…is because modelled species’ realised niches capture many factors other than species limits of tolerance to environmental variables (e.g. competition and historical contingency, Araújo et al. 2001, Leathwick and Austin 2001) and these factors are not easily predictable (Loehle and LeBlanc 1996).”
Survey-gap analysis in expeditionary research: where do we go from here? (2005, unknown): “Recent efforts by a number of groups and institutions to compile databases of museum collections and make those data available have given the biodiversity research community the ability to use tools such as GIS to ask questions that were not possible to address just a short time ago (Richardson & Fu”
An ED-based Protocol for Optimal Sampling of Biodiversity (2005, methodology): “However, environmental diversity alone may not be a good predictor of biodiversity (Araújo et al. 2001, but see Faith 2003; Araújo et al. 2003).”
