    Quantifying distance of edge influence: a comparison of methods and a new randomization method 
    Harper, Karen A., 1969-; MacDonald, S. E. (Wiley, 2011-08-25)
    Despite many studies on edge influence in forests, there is no common method for estimating distance of edge influence (DEI, = edge width). We introduce a new randomization method (RTEI) for estimating DEI that tests the ...

    Trends in studies of edge influence on vegetation at human created and natural forest edges across time and space 
    Franklin, Caroline M.A.; Harper, Karen A., 1969-; Clarke, Madeline J. (NRC Research Press, 2020-11-17)
    Forest edges, or boundaries between adjacent ecosystems, play important ecological roles. Both anthropogenic and natural forest edges affect vegetation while contributing to landscape heterogeneity. The recent proliferation ...
