Functional diversity: a review of methodology and current knowledge in freshwater macroinvertebrate research (2016, methodology): “Bêche & Resh (2007) also used the average pairwise trait-distance between taxa after Heemsbergen et al. (2004), who used this measure for the first time.”
A macroecological perspective of trait patterns in stream communities (2013, background): “It may well be that the temporal variability of stream systems does not allow strong development of trait-environment associations at the community level (see also Bêche & Resh, 2007).”
Rapid loss of glacial ice reveals stream community assembly processes (2012, result): “In contrast to Bêche et al. (2006) and Bêche & Resh (2007) who studied non-glacial rivers and found trait diversity to be relatively invariable despite changes in community composition over 6–19 years time scales, trait richness increased by 176% (from 21 to 58) between 1978 and 2000/01 in WPC as…”
Combined effects of habitat modification on trait composition and species nestedness in river invertebrates (2010, background): “Functional diversity in an assemblage is normally expected to be a function of species richness, although the shape of this function varies between systems, and in rivers is still unclear (Stevens et al., 2003; Bêche and Resh, 2007).”
