Colding, J., Folke, C. (2009). The role of golf courses in biodiversity conservation and ecosystem management. Ecosystems 12: 191-206.

Publication review We assessed the ecological value of golf courses based on a quantitative synthesis of studies in the scientific literature that have measured and compared biota on golf courses to that of biota in green-area habitats related to other land uses. We found that golf courses had higher ecological value in 64% of comparative cases. This pattern was consistent also for comparisons based on measures of species r...

Colding, J., Lundberg, J., Lundberg, S., Andersson, E. (2009). Golf courses and wetland fauna. Ecological Applications 19: 1481–1491.

Publication review Golf courses are often considered to be chemical-intensive ecosystems with negative impacts on fauna. Here we provide evidence that golf courses can contribute to the support and conservation of wetland fauna, i.e., amphibians and macroinvertebrates. Comparisons of amphibian occurrence, diversity of macroinvetebrates, and occurrence of species of conservation concern were made between permanent freshwater...
