DIVERSITY–PRODUCTIVITY RELATIONSHIPS IN STREAMS VARY AS A FUNCTION OF THE NATURAL DISTURBANCE REGIME (2005, background): “…the balance of positive and negative interactions that regulate per capita resource capture (Mulder et al. 2001, Cardinale and Palmer 2002, Cardinale et al. 2002) and (2) alters rates of dispersal that determine the number of species and rate of biomass accrual in a recovering site…”
Global shifts towards positive species interactions with increasing environmental stress. (2013, background): “Positive species interactions can also govern the stability (Butterfield 2009), productivity (Mulder et al. 2001) and energy flux (Ernst & Banks 2002) of ecosystems.”
The Role of Biodiversity in the Functioning of Freshwater and Marine Benthic Ecosystems (2004, neutral): “…three studies considered the potential importance of taxonomic evenness in benthic processes (Bärlocher and Graça 2002, Cardinale and Palmer 2002, Cardinale et al. 2002), but other studies recognized the importance of the relative biomass and abundance of the species that comprise an…”
Dominant species maintain ecosystem function with non‐random species loss (2003, methodology): “…in productivity with species loss, such as niche complementarity (Tilman et al. 1997a; Loreau 2000; Loreau & Hector 2001; Mulder et al. 2001; Cardinale et al. 2002), these studies have indirectly controlled for the sampling effect using comparisons between mixtures and monocultures (Hector…”
Functional benefits of predator species diversity depend on prey identity (2005, background): “This occurs, for example, when one predator induces behaviours in the prey that put them at greater risk from a second predator, or where increased diversity is associated with changes in the way prey are distributed (Cardinale et al., 2002).”
Integrating methods that investigate how complementarity influences ecosystem functioning (2003, background): “If, for example, mortality causes changes in standing stock, these are compensated for by addition of individuals (Cardinale et al. 2002). Design 2 corresponds accurately to Emmerson et al. (2001), Wardle et al.”
Endophytic fungi alter relationships between diversity and ecosystem properties (2004, background): “Keywords Diversity, ecosystem functioning, endophytic fungi, Festuca, invasibility, Neotyphodium, productivity.”
Grain legume-cereal intercropping enhances the use of soil-derived and biologically fixed nitrogen in temperate agroecosystems. A meta-analysis (2020, background): “Plant interactions in intercrops may take various forms a) competition, b) complementarity, c) facilitation and d) compensation (Tilman, 1999; Cardinale et al., 2002).”
Mapping ecosystem services' values: current practice and future prospects. (2013, background): “Evidence on correlations between biodiversity and ESS supply are mixed (Cardinale et al., 2002, 2012; Maes et al., 2011b, 2012).”
A synthesis of subdisciplines: predator–prey interactions, and biodiversity and ecosystem functioning (2004, background): “The former is the mainstay of PPI studies, whereas the latter is typical of BEF studies of plants consuming nutrients (Tilman et al. 1996; Hector et al. 1999) or detritivores consuming detritus (Jonsson & Malmqvist 2000; Duffy et al. 2001; Cardinale et al. 2002).”
Assessment of ecosystem function following marine aggregate dredging (2008, methodology): “processes has been difficult to demonstrate ( Cardinale et al., 2000 & 2002 ), yet despite”
Functional Diversity of Plant–Pollinator Interaction Webs Enhances the Persistence of Plant Communities (2005, background): “Such effects, which are often linked to diversity [9,10], are known to have large influences on ecological processes such as community productivity and”
Biodiversity effects on ecosystem functioning: insights from aquatic systems (2004, background): “However, the papers published both here and elsewhere (Bolam et al. 2002, Cardinale et al. 2002, Jonsson et al. 2002) show that aquatic biota and ecosystems may serve as excellent testing grounds for exploring the biodiversity-ecosystem functioning issue with both experimental and theoretical…”
Ecosystem Processes Performed by Unionid Mussels in Stream Mesocosms: Species Roles and Effects of Abundance (2004, methodology): “The use of recirculating mesocosms is common in ecological studies of stream invertebrates (Lamberti & Steinman, 1993; Cardinale et al., 2002) and allowed us to obtain much more precise estimates of what mussels were putting into and taking out of the water and sediment than would have been…”
Geomorphology and ecology: Unifying themes for complex systems in biogeomorphology (2006, background): “By increasing the topographic complexity of benthic habitats, aquatic macroinvertebrates alter patterns of near-bed flow such that the feeding success of individuals is enhanced and species coexistence is augmented (Cardinale et al., 2002).”
Biodiversity-Ecosystem Function Research: Is It Relevant to Conservation? (2005, background): “Examples include promotion of net consumption rates in diverse aquatic insect assemblages through modifications of hydrology and detrital particle size (Cardinale et al. 2002, Heard 1994).”
