Thermal tolerance and geographical range size in the Agabus brunneus group of European diving beetles (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae) (2007, background): “On a broad scale our findings lend support to Brown’s hypothesis (Brown, 1984, 1995; Gaston, 1994b; Gaston et al., 1997; Maurer, 1999), as well as the EVH (Stevens, 1989), suggesting that here at least physiology may play a central role in setting species’ relative latitudinal range extents.”
A unified theory for macroecology based on spatial patterns of abundance (2003, background): “The idea of calculating a species–area curve from randomly placed species ranges is not novel, but this is the first time that such a simulation has produced c and z values similar to those in nature without a free (fitting) parameter (cf. Leitner and Rosenzweig, 1997; Maurer, 1999).”
On the evolutionary ecology of species' ranges (2003, background): “The development of macroecological approaches (Brown, 1995; Maurer, 1999; Gaston and Blackburn, 2000) has revealed many intriguing range patterns (Brown et al.”
