The FloRes Database: A floral resources trait database for pollinator habitat-assessment generated by a multistep workflow [PDF]
Biodiversity Data Journal, 2022 The decline of pollinating insects in agricultural landscapes proceeds due to intensive land use and the associated loss of habitat and food sources. The feeding of those insects depends on the spatial and temporal distribution of nectar and pollen as ...

Assessing the role of dispersed floral resources for managed bees in providing supporting ecosystem services for crop pollination [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Most pollination ecosystem services studies have focussed on wild pollinators and their dependence on natural floral resources adjacent to crop fields. However, managed pollinators depend on a mixture of floral resources that are spatially separated from
