• Taxonomic and regional patterns in benthic macroinvertebrate elemental composition in streams (2005, background): “The results of this study and others (Andersen & Hessen, 1991; Hessen & Lyche, 1991; Frost et al., 2003) suggest that the elemental ratios of specific invertebrates sampled from a variety of environments are relatively stable.”
• Resource quality and stoichiometric constraints on stream ecosystem functioning (2009, background): “duebeni are also similar to those of other crustaceans (Frost et al., 2003; Tibbets & Molles, 2005).”
• Stoichiometric variation in C:N, C:P, and N:P ratios of littoral benthic invertebrates (2005, background): “Frost et al. (2003) measured C, N, and P content of littoral macroinvertebrates in different lakes and found that their nutrient stoichiometry varied more among taxonomic groups than among lakes.”
• Consumer‐resource stoichiometry in detritus‐based streams (2003, background): “Important questions remain, however, concerning the importance of other evolutionary or ecological characteristics in determining consumer nutrient content (Frost et al. 2003).”
• Thresholds in macroinvertebrate biodiversity and stoichiometry across water-quality gradients in Central Plains (USA) streams (2009, methodology): “:P data were compiled from other published studies (Frost et al. 2003, Cross et al. 2003, Evans-White et al. 2005, Singer and Battin 2007; Appendix; available online from: http://dx.doi.org/10.1899/08-113.1.s1).”
• Ecological Networks in a Changing Climate (2010, result): “In contrast to autotrophs, elemental stoichiometry of heterotrophic consumers is relatively fixed or homeostatic (Elser et al., 2000; Frost et al., 2003, but see Cross et al., 2003; Demott et al., 2001).”
• Ecological stoichiometry in freshwater benthic systems: recent progress and perspectives (2005, background): “1; Cross et al., 2003; Frost et al., 2003; Evans-White, Stelzer & Lamberti, 2005).”
