Patterns and causes of species richness: a general simulation model for macroecology (2009)
Gotelli, Nicholas J., Anderson, Marti J., Hector, T. Arita, Chao, Anne, Colwell, Robert K., Connolly, Sean R., ...
Understanding the causes of spatial variation in species richness is a major research focus of biogeography and macroecology. Gridded environmental data and species richness maps have been used in...
Phylocom: software for the analysis of phylogenetic community structure and trait evolution (2008)
Webb, Campbell O., Ackerly, David D., Kembel, Steven W.
Motivation: The increasing availability of phylogenetic and trait data for communities of co-occurring species has created a need for software that integrates ecological and evolutionary analyses....
A LIKELIHOOD FRAMEWORK FOR INFERRING THE EVOLUTION OF GEOGRAPHIC RANGE ON PHYLOGENETIC TREES (2005)
Richard H. Ree, Brian R. Moore, Campbell O. Webb, Michael J. Donoghue
At a time when historical biogeography appears to be again expanding its scope after a period of focusing primarily on discerning area relationships using cladograms, new inference methods are needed...
A Brief history of seed size (2005)
Moles, Angela T, Ackerly, David D, Webb, Campbell O, Tweddle, John C, Dickie, John B, Westoby, Mark
Improved phylogenies and the accumulation of broad comparative data sets have opened the way for phylogenetic analyses to trace trait evolution in major groups of organisms. We arrayed seed mass data...
Factors that shape seed mass evolution (2005)
Moles, Angela T, Ackerly, David D, Webb, Campbell O, Tweddle, John C, Dickie, John B, Pitman, Andy J, ...
We used correlated divergence analysis to determine which factors have been most closely associated with changes in seed mass during seed plant evolution. We found that divergences in seed mass have...
Response to comment on 'A brief history of seed size' (2005)

Phylogenetic Balance and Ecological Evenness (2002)
Webb, Campbell O., Pitman, Nigel C. A.
The frequency distribution of numbers of species in taxonomic groups, where many species belong to a few very diverse higher taxa, is mirrored by that of species in most communities, where many...

Factors that shape seed mass evolution
Moles, Angela T., Ackerly, David D., Webb, Campbell O., Tweddle, John C., Dickie, John B., Pitman, Andy J., ...
We used correlated divergence analysis to determine which factors have been most closely associated with changes in seed mass during seed plant evolution. We found that divergences in seed mass have...
Exotic taxa less related to native species are more invasive
Strauss, Sharon Y., Webb, Campbell O., Salamin, Nicolas
Some species introduced into new geographical areas from their native ranges wreak ecological and economic havoc in their new environment. Although many studies have searched for either species or...

Phylogenetic signal in plant pathogen–host range
Gilbert, Gregory S., Webb, Campbell O.
What determines which plant species are susceptible to a given plant pathogen is poorly understood. Experimental inoculations with fungal pathogens of plant leaves in a tropical rain forest show that...
