Macrobenthic recovery from hypoxia in an estuarine tidal mudflat (2008, methodology): “Species were classified into functional groups according to their mobility, feeding guilds and burrowing activity (tube-building versus biodestabiliser) based on literature (e.g. Fauchauld & Jumars 1979, Gerino et al. 2003, Volkenborn & Reise 2007) and our own observations (Table A1 in Appendix 1).”
Towards an assessment of multiple ecosystem processes and services via functional traits (2010, background): “…need further progress for other organisms, such as soil fauna (Faber 1991; Bradford et al. 2002; Rutgers et al. 2009), soil microbes (Heemsbergen et al. 2004), freshwater and marine ecosystems (Dolédec et al. 1999; Gerino et al. 2003) and pollinators (Kremen et al. 2007; Moretti et al. 2009).”
Influence of bioturbation by three benthic infaunal species on microbial communities and biogeochemical processes in marine sediment (2004, unknown): “This modelling approach allowed the classification of marine invertebrates into different functional groups (see review in Gerino et al. 2003).”
Morphological and functional characterisation of the burrow systems of six earthworm species (Lumbricidae) (2015, result): “This surprising lack of knowledge is in sharp contrast with the situation in the field of sediment ecology where a typology of bioturbation behaviours (biodiffusor reworkers, upward conveyors) and thus burrow morphologies has been established (Gerino et al. 2003).”
Benthic community-mediated sediment dynamics (2008, background): “Biodiffusion (Gerino et al. 2003) is one of the processes which keeps the sediment surface loose and increases bottom roughness, rendering it more susceptible to erosion (Woodin & Jackson 1979).”
