Life history trait diversity of native freshwater fishes in North America (2010, background): “…relationships at large spatial scales, a trait analysis facilitates the comparison of species compositions that naturally differ due to biogeographic constraints on regional species pools (e.g., Vila-Gispert et al. 2002; Tedesco & Hugueny 2006; Tedesco et al. 2008; Ibañez et al. 2009).”
A macroecological perspective of trait patterns in stream communities (2013, background): “The few studies that exist have pointed to the convergence of fish community traits (Lamouroux et al., 2002; Ibañez et al., 2009; Olden & Kennard, 2010), but it is largely unknown to what extent other organism groups, including invertebrates, macrophytes and algae, show convergent or divergent trait”
Ecological Stoichiometry as an Integrative Framework in Stream Fish Ecology (2010, background): “Detritus and algae are the most abundant resources and are the main diet of many tropical stream fishes and a smaller number of temperate species (Lowe-McConnell 1987; Matthews 1998; Ibanez et al. 2009).”
Impacts of hydroelectric dams on fishes and fisheries in tropical rivers through the lens of functional traits (2019, background): “Convergent functional trait patterns in relation to environmental gradients have been revealed for fish assemblages of temperate streams [31] as well as between temperate and tropical systems [32].”
