• Nematodes as soil indicators: functional and biodiversity aspects (2003, background): “Similarly Liiri et al. (2002) found only weak relationships between soil microarthropod diversity and its recovery following disturbance by drought.”
• Soil health in agricultural systems (2008, background): “There is some experimental evidence that there may be threshold levels of soil biodiversity below which functions decline (e.g. van der Heijden et al. 1998; Liiri et al. 2002; Setälä & McLean 2004).”
• Soil biodiversity and carbon cycling: a review and synthesis of studies examining diversity–function relationships (2011, background): “In the cases where a redundant relationship was observed, measured aspects of C cycling typically increased up to 10 species or less, after which there was little change in C cycling with increased richness (Liiri et al., 2002; Setälä & McLean, 2004).”
• THE INSURANCE VALUE OF BIODIVERSITY IN THE PROVISION OF ECOSYSTEM SERVICES (2005, background): “1986), and soil ecosystems (de Ruiter et al. 2002, Griffiths et al. 2000, Ingham et al. 1985, Liiri et al. 2002).”
• The influence of below-ground herbivory and defoliation of a legume on nitrogen transfer to neighbouring plants. (2007, methodology): “Several other studies have employed a similar method to defaunate soil (Laakso & Setala 1999a, 1999b; Liiri et al . 2002 ).”
• Decline in a dominant invertebrate species contributes to altered carbon cycling in a low‐diversity soil ecosystem (2008, background): “…between soil biodiversity and ecosystem functioning is strongest in species-poor communities (o10 invertebrate species), but whether these relationships are as important to the functioning of natural systems is less clear (Bradford et al., 2002; Liiri et al., 2002; Setälä & McLean, 2004).”
• EFFECTS OF BIODIVERSITY ON ECOSYSTEM FUNCTIONING: A CONSENSUS OF CURRENT KNOWLEDGE (2005, background): “Experiments that have tried to remove key taxonomic groups in soil food webs have found relatively little change in average process rates such as soil respiration, aboveground net primary production (NPP), and net ecosystem production (Ingham et al. 1985, Liiri et al. 2002).”
