Historical Contingency in Community Assembly: Integrating Niches, Species Pools, and Priority Effects (2015, background): “Clearly, it is difficult to ask questions about the species pool without a practical definition of it, but some promising advances have been made recently (Carstensen et al. 2013, Cornell & Harrison 2014).”
How to make more out of community data? A conceptual framework and its implementation as models and software. (2017, background): “In this scheme, the ‘global species pool’ consists of all existing species, the ‘regional pool’ of all species able to colonise a given area, and the ‘local species pool’ of the set of species found at the finest scale considered (Cornell & Harrison 2014).”
Estimating dark diversity and species pools: an empirical assessment of two methods (2016, unknown): “This idea is a refinement of the species-pool hypothesis (for a review see Cornell & Harrison 2014), in that communities maintain a theoretical suite of species that have the potential to establish and co-occur (Eriksson 1993; Zobel 1997).”
Dos and don'ts when inferring assembly rules from diversity patterns (2020, background): “(P4) The species pool is generally defined as the set of all species existing in a given region that could colonize a focal community (Srivastava, 1999), but other definitions exist (Cornell & Harrison, 2014).”
Spatial scale and intraspecific trait variability mediate assembly rules in alpine grasslands (2017, background): “…1989): (i) grain (e.g. the plot area of the sampled community) and (ii) extent [e.g. the geographical area that contains the communities (plots) under study] that, in the case of diversity pattern studies, defines the species pool to which community structure is compared (Cornell & Harrison 2014).”
The origin of urban communities: From the regional species pool to community assemblages in city (2020, background): “However, these studies are sensitive to the size and composition of the pool of species available to colonize a focal site (Cornell & Harrison, 2014; Lessard, Belmaker, Myers, Chase, & Rahbek, 2012), that is the regional species pool.”
