[图书][B] Island biogeography: ecology, evolution, and conservation

RJ Whittaker, JM Fernández-Palacios - 2007 - books.google.com
Island biogeography is the study of the distribution and dynamics of species in island
environments. Due to their isolation from more widespread continental species, islands are …

[图书][B] Pattern and process in macroecology

KJ Gaston, TM Blackburn - 2000 - Wiley Online Library
The first photographs of the Earth to be taken from outer space are said to have had a
profound influence on how humanity perceives its place in the Universe. They provided a …

Local species immigration, extinction, and turnover of butterflies in relation to habitat area and habitat isolation

J Krauss, I Steffan-Dewenter, T Tscharntke - Oecologia, 2003 - Springer
Temporal dynamics of insect communities in terrestrial habitat fragments have been rarely
studied. Here it was tested whether immigration, extinction, and turnover of butterfly species …

Why short‐term experiments may not allow long‐term predictions about intraguild predation

CJ Briggs, ET Borer - Ecological Applications, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
Equilibrium models are increasingly employed in applied ecology, but often because of
experimental logistics, only short‐term laboratory experiments are performed. Here, we use …

Turnover of breeding bird communities on islands in an inundated lake

X Si, SL Pimm, GJ Russell, P Ding - Journal of Biogeography, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Abstract Aim MacArthur and Wilson's theory of island biogeography proposes that the rate at
which species colonize an island depends on the island's isolation (distance effect) …

Effects of habitat size and isolation on species immigration–extinction dynamics and community nestedness in a desert river system

S Miyazono, CM Taylor - Freshwater Biology, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
Habitat fragmentation is one of the major causes of local and regional species extinctions in
freshwater ecosystems. To predict future trends in community composition, and the potential …

Biodiversity of marine sessile epifauna at an Aegean island subject to hydrothermal activity: Milos, eastern Mediterranean Sea

C Morri, CN Bianchi, S Cocito, A Peirano, AMD Biase… - Marine biology, 1999 - Springer
Sessile macroepifauna was sampled at six rocky sites between 2 and 90 m depth with a
number of different methods involving both underwater photography and collection of …

Colonization and extinction of ant communities in a fragmented landscape

JH Schoereder, TG Sobrinho, CR Ribas… - Austral …, 2004 - Wiley Online Library
In this paper we tested the assumption that smaller and more isolated remnants receive
fewer ant colonizers and lose more species. We also tested hypotheses to explain such a …

Community convergence in disturbed subtropical dune forests

TD Wassenaar, RJ Van Aarde, SL Pimm, SM Ferreira - Ecology, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
Do communities return to their former state when we disturb them? The answer is “surely not
always,” since some disturbances may be so devastating that recovery will be impossible. If …

Small-scale experimental habitat fragmentation reduces colonization rates in species-rich grasslands

J Joshi, P Stoll, HP Rusterholz, B Schmid, C Dolt… - Oecologia, 2006 - Springer
Habitat fragmentation is one of the most important threats to biodiversity. Decreasing patch
size may lead to a reduction in the size of populations and to an increased extinction risk of …
