MEASURING BEE DIVERSITY IN DIFFERENT EUROPEAN HABITATS AND BIOGEOGRAPHICAL REGIONS (2008, background): “Ongoing human activities, such as agricultural intensification and associated land use changes (Kremen et al. 2002, Steffan-Dewenter et al. 2002, Ricketts et al. 2004), habitat destruction and fragmentation (Rathcke and Jules 1993, Aizen and Feinsinger 1994, Hoekstra et al. 2005, Cane et al. 2006),…”
Facilitation in plant communities: the past, the present, and the future (2007, background): “Journal compilation © 2007 British Ecological Society, Journal of Ecology, 96, 18–34 visits, which lead to greater crop yields (Ricketts et al. 2004), enhanced water status of crops growing with species capable of hydraulic lift (Pate & Dawson 1999; Sekiya & Yano 2004), the transfer of symbiotically”
Pollination and other ecosystem services produced by mobile organisms: a conceptual framework for the effects of land-use change. (2007, neutral): “…), crops such as red clover, sunﬂowers, melon, oilseed rape, coffee, blueberries and almonds that provide large ﬂushes of pollen and nectar, can help support bees and other pollinators in the short term (Westphal et al. 2003; Ricketts et al. 2004; Morandin & Winston 2005; Greenleaf & Kremen 2006b).”
A Review of Ecosystem Services, Farmer Livelihoods, and Value Chains in Shade Coffee Agroecosystems (2011, background): “For example, a study on coffee pollination by native bees in Costa Rica calculated that coffee plants located within 1 km of a Costa Rican forest fragment had increased yields (>20% higher), an amount that totaled $62,000 of added income for the farm studied (Ricketts et al. 2004).”
Intensification of agriculture, landscape composition and wild bee communities: a large scale study in four European countries. (2010, background): “For example, Ricketts et al. (2004) showed that conservation of tropical forests and their associated bees increased coffee yields and quality in surrounding fields.”
Scattered trees are keystone structures – Implications for conservation (2006, background): “Other mutualists of trees, such as pollinators, have been studied less extensively in modified landscapes (but see Ricketts et al., 2004).”
Wild Pollinators Enhance Fruit Set of Crops Regardless of Honey Bee Abundance (2013, neutral): “Coffee highland (B) (50, 51) Ricketts, taylor.”
Biodiversity in forest carbon sequestration initiatives: not just a side benefit (2009, background): “One way is through the provision by the forest of ecosystem services other than carbon sequestration, such water regulation [38], pollination of important plants [39], or the provision of habitat for important animals [40 ].”
The Economic Valuation of Environmental Amenities and Disamenities: Methods and Applications (2009, background): “Other nonconsumptive uses whose value has been estimated include watershed protection (134) and pollination services for local agriculture (135).”
