- AN INTRODUCED PREDATOR ALTERS ALEUTIAN ISLAND PLANT COMMUNITIES BY THWARTING NUTRIENT SUBSIDIES (2006, background): “…(Schoener and Spiller 1999), spiders (Gomez and Zamora 1994, Spiller and Schoener 1994, Beckerman et al. 1997, Moran and Hurd 1998, Schmitz 1998, 2003), ants (Dyer and Letourneau 1999), and birds (Marquis and Whelan 1994, Van Bael et al. 2003, but see Gruner 2004) can induce ‘‘species cascades.’’”
- Bird Predation On Spiders: Ecological Mechanisms And Evolutionary Consequences (2007, background): “The results on A. riparia were part of a larger experiment that examined the relative influences of bottom-up and top-down effects in a Hawaiian food-web (Gruner 2004).”
- Legacy of top-down herbivore pressure ricochets back up multiple trophic levels in forest canopies over 30 years (2011, background): “Dynamics of food chains are shaped by both ‘‘top-down’’ forces like predation and ‘‘bottomup’’ forces like plant quality and productivity (Hairston et al. 1960, Leibold 1989, Terborgh et al. 2001, Gruner 2004).”
