• Salt tolerance and survival thresholds for two species of Antarctic soil nematodes (2006, background): “Nematodes assumed to be dead did not respond to stimulation with an eyelash, and were usually straight or uncoiled, i.e., not anhydrobiotic at death (Treonis et al. 2000).”
• Microclimate impacts of passive warming methods in Antarctica: implications for climate change studies (2011, background): “Observations made on the OTCs used in the Dry Valleys suggested that they accumulate more snow than control plots (Treonis et al. 2000) resulting in short-term soil moisture peaks (Virginia, Barrett, Wall, personal communication).”
• Wind dispersal of soil invertebrates in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica (2006, background): “S. lindsayae are better adapted than Plectus to dry soil conditions ( Treonis et al. 2000; Barrett 1976) and had a higher incidence of survival in the Bundt pans and OTC.”
• Decline in a dominant invertebrate species contributes to altered carbon cycling in a low‐diversity soil ecosystem (2008, background): “…but cooling is also likely to have changed the number of days when sufficient availability of liquid water permits metabolic activity of soil invertebrates (e.g. Treonis et al., 2000). r 2008 The Authors Journal compilation r 2008 Blackwell Publishing Ltd, Global Change Biology, 14, 1734–1744”
• Co-variation in soil biodiversity and biogeochemistry in northern and southern Victoria Land, Antarctica (2006, background): “…soil moisture content is typically quite low (< 2% by weight), and is an important limitation over biotic community structure (Treonis et al. 1999, Aislabie et al. 2006), and the functioning of soil biota (Treonis et al. 2000, Barrett et al. 2006, Elberling et al. 2006, Gregorich et al. 2006).”
