- Sediment‐mediated suppression of herbivory on coral reefs: Decreasing resilience to rising sea‐levels and climate change? (2008, background): “Comparable modification of the benthic substratum through an interaction between benthic organisms and sediments has been reported in numerous aquatic ecosystems from freshwater streams to rocky coasts (Statzner et al. 2000; Airoldi 2003; Gorgula and Connell 2004).”
- 40 Years of benthic community change on the Caribbean reefs of Curaçao and Bonaire: the rise of slimy cyanobacterial mats (2017, background): “The general consensus is that algal turfs benefit from elevated nutrient loads (Gorgula and Connell 2004; Vermeij et al. 2010).”
- The Gray Zone: Relationships between habitat loss and marine diversity and their applications in conservation (2008, background): “This habitat shift seems to be favoured under conditions of decreased water quality and/or enhanced sediment loads (Airoldi, 1998; Airoldi, 2003; Benedetti-Cecchi et al., 2001; Irving and Connell, 2002; Gorgula and Connell, 2004; Balata et al., 2007b).”
- The genus Laminaria sensu lato : recent insights and developments (2008, background): “Enhancement of nutrients in coastal waters is likely to cause large changes to benthic assemblages, such as a shift from slow-growing macroalgae to fast-growing turf-forming algae (Gorgula & Connell, 2004 ), and may also favour growth of epiphytic filamentous algae.”
- Testing a new classification of morphological functional groups of marine macroalgae for the detection of responses to stress (2011, background): “Studies on benthic assemblages have considered turfforming species as a general, indistinct category from an ecological point of view, often opposite to other morphological categories (Kendrick 1991; Airoldi 1998, 2000b; Irving and Connell 2002; Gorgula and Connell 2004 ).”
- Integrating ecology with biogeography using landscape characteristics: a case study of subtidal habitat across continental Australia (2008, background): “It is perhaps not surprising that previous benthic studies of urban discharge de-emphasized the role of outfalls around Sydney (Chapman et al., 1995), or identified vague or small effects on kelp and benthos in other parts of Peronia (Roberts et al., 1998; Ajani et al., 1999), relative to those iden”
