• Exploiting beach filling as an unaffordable experiment: Benthic intertidal impacts propagating upwards to shorebirds (2006, background): “Correlative approaches have been applied to establish relationships among physical environmental variables (especially beach slope, sedimentology, and tidal range) and biological characteristics of populations and communities of intertidal invertebrates on sandy beaches (McLachlan, 2001; Defeo and M”
• The status of sandy beach science: Past trends, progress, and possible futures (2014, background): “In addition to these ideas, the Source-Sink Hypothesis posits that dissipative beaches with abundant populations may seed more reflective beaches which cannot sustain themselves (Defeo and McLachlan, 2005).”
• Coupling between macrofauna community structure and beach type: a deconstructive meta-analysis (2011, background): “…richness versus beach slope for filter feeders suggests that they can colonise beaches of the reflective type but there is little addition of species towards dissipative beaches; rather, a few species can become extremely abundant, as usually occurs on dissipative beaches (Defeo & McLachlan 2005).”
• Ecology of freshwater shore zones (2010, background): “13 Idealized relationships between beach geomorphology, ecological processes, and aquatic macroinvertebrates along sandy beaches (modified from Defeo and McLachlan 2005).”
• The humboldt current system of northern and central chile : Oceanographic processes, ecological interactions and socioeconomic feedback (2007, background): “On the other hand, organisms inhabiting the upper shore (i.e., talitrid amphipods) are not associated to one particular beach type (Defeo & McLachlan 2005), which suggests that their populations are not influenced by beach morphodynamics but rather by other physical factors or food availability.”
