• Spatial extent, regional specificity and metacommunity structuring in lake macrophytes (2013, result): “This is contrary to some previous findings that have shown increasing spatial structure with increasing spatial extent (Heino et al., 2007; Mykr€a et al., 2007; Bennett et al., 2010).”
• A macroecological perspective of trait patterns in stream communities (2013, background): “…trait variation is relatively high, almost as high as taxonomic variation of community composition along environmental gradients across and within ecoregions (Heino et al., 2007), among drainage basins (Schmera et al., unpublished) and within a drainage basin (Schmera et al., unpublished).”
• Biotic homogenization: Loss of avian functional richness and habitat specialists in disturbed Andean temperate forests (2015, background): “These processes act as “anthropogenic environmental filters” or conditions that selectively remove species according to their functional traits (Heino et al., 2007; Naeem and Wright, 2003).”
• Cryptic Biodiversity in Streams: A Comparison of Macroinvertebrate Communities Based on Morphological and DNA Barcode Identifications (2014, background): “…applications to biomonitoring that refer to species traits but actually use genus- or family-level characteristics (e.g., Poff 1997, Poff et al. 2006, Heino et al. 2007, Statzner and Bêche 2010, Heino 2013) that (often unknowingly) homogenize species-level differences (e.g., Janzen et al. 2012).”
• Biodiversity of Aquatic Insects: Spatial Gradients and Environmental Correlates of Assemblage-Level Measures at Large Scales (2009, unknown): “In North Europe, where ecoregional delineations largely follow latitude, there are differences between ecoregions in both species richness (Sandin & Johnson, 2000; Heino et al., 2002) and assemblage composition (Sandin & Johnson, 2000; Heino et al., 2007a).”
