Worldwide decline of the entomofauna: A review of its drivers (2019, background): “The combined removal of weeds and trees in intensive agricultural settings may thus explain the decline of moth species overwintering as larvae (Fox, 2013; Mattila et al., 2006; Merckx et al., 2009; Pocock and Jennings, 2008).”
The potential utility of rodents and other small mammals as indicators of ecosystem 'integrity' of South African grasslands (2011, background): “Presence of insectivores in an area is thought to be an excellent indication of ecosystem integrity (Pocock and Jennings 2008), but in the present study they were recorded infrequently and would need to be assessed by some other means to become useful indicators of environmental condition in Free St”
Mitigating the impacts of agriculture on biodiversity: bats and their potential role as bioindicators (2015, background): “412 A key study missing from Table 2 is that of Pocock and Jennings (2008); this study examined 413 responses of 30 species or other taxonomic groupings, cluding four species/groups of bat, to three 414 key features of agricultural intensification (use of agrochemicals, the switch from hay to…”
The decline of moths in Great Britain: a review of possible causes (2013, background): “Pocock and Jennings (2008) conducted a similar study, but were able to separate out several different elements of intensification.”
Improving the biodiversity benefits of hedgerows: How physical characteristics and the proximity of foraging habitat affect the use of linear features by bats (2011, background): “However, studies that use point counts to compare activity levels in open areas to activity recorded adjacent to linear features also shown a negligible association between these species and linear features (Pocock and Jennings, 2008; Verboom and Huitema, 1997).”
Landscape connectivity, habitat structure and activity of bat guilds in farmland-dominated matrices (2013, unknown): “SRE prefer foraging close to ecotones (e.g. boundaries between hedgerows and fields), which was also demonstrated by Pocock & Jennings (2008), who suggested there is such an effect with the majority of bats except the larger species (mostly LRE).”
