Net spinning caddisflies as stream ecosystem engineers: the influence of Hydropsyche on benthic substrate stability (2004, background): “As a consequence, spatial ‘refuges’ – areas of a streambed that remain stable during flooding – are thought to be a key factor that moderates the ecological impact of disturbance in streams (Lancaster 2000; Townsend, Scarsboro & Doledec 1997).”
Immediate and habitat-specific responses of macroinvertebrates to sequential, experimental floods (2004, background): “…use morphological, behavioral, and physiological traits (Statzner and Holm 1982, 1989, Waringer 1989), as well as spatial flow refugia (Palmer et al. 1 E-mail addresses: robinson@eawag.ch 2 stefan.aebischer@gmx.ch 3 uehlinger@eawag.ch 1995, Rempel et al. 1999, Lancaster 2000), to survive floods.”
Confounding factors in the detection of species responses to habitat fragmentation (2005, background): “This pattern is also found in two-dimensional marine substrates (Minchinton, 1997; Tanner, 2003) and has been applied to three-dimensional patches in marine ( Jacobi & Langevin, 1996) and aquatic (Lancaster, 2000) habitats.”
Causes and consequences of invertebrate drift in running waters: from individuals to populations and trophic fluxes (2016, background): “This trait-based classification 220 approach has been integrated into broader functional classifications (e.g., Poff et al. 2006) and 221 may provide a mechanistic basis for anticipating taxa-specific drift responses to environmental 222 disturbance (e.g., Lancaster 2000).”
Ecological Forecasting and the Urbanization of Stream Ecosystems: Challenges for Economists, Hydrologists, Geomorphologists, and Ecologists (2003, background): “Because of the well-known role that patches of stable streambed play in mediating the effects of floods on stream biota (Downes and others 1998; Lancaster 2000), the most appropriate measure of bed mobility ecologically is the percentage of the streambed that is disturbed by a particular discharge.”
Unionid mussels influence macroinvertebrate assemblage structure in streams (2006, background): “Some environmental variables known to be important to macroinvertebrates at small spatial scales, such as microscale variations in flow and depth characteristics (Lancaster 2000, Kilbane and Holomuzki 2004), were not measured.”
Effects of habitat complexity on benthic assemblages in a variable environment (2004, background): “It has been demonstrated experimentally that benthic invertebrates tend to gather in low flow, refuge areas, particularly under high flow regimes (Lancaster, 1999, 2000).”
The hyporheic zone as an invertebrate refuge: a review of variability in space, time, taxa and behaviour (2012, background): “As such, it is recognised that the changes in distribution taken as evidence of refuge use may result from a combination of active and passive movements (Robertson et al. 1995; Dole-Olivier et al. 1997; Lancaster 2000).”
