Phenology dictates the impact of climate change on geographic distributions of six co‐occurring North American grasshoppers

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Throughout the last century, climate change has altered the geographic distributions of many species. Insects, in particular, vary in their ability to track changing climates, and it is likely that phenology is an important determinant of how well ...

Determinants of species richness patterns in the Netherlands across multiple taxonomic groups [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We examined the species richness patterns of five different species groups (mosses, reptiles and amphibians, grasshoppers and crickets, dragonflies, and hoverflies) in the Netherlands (41,500 km2) using sampling units of 5 × 5 km. We compared the spatial

The grasshopper problem [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2017
We introduce and physically motivate the following problem in geometric combinatorics, originally inspired by analysing Bell inequalities. A grasshopper lands at a random point on a planar lawn of area 1. It then jumps once, a fixed distanced, in a random direction.
