Pattern-formation approach to modelling spatially extended ecosystems (2012, unknown): “been devoted to the definition and quantification of landscape heterogeneity, to the identification and study of its drivers (Turner, 2005), and to the implications for community dynamics, ecosystem processes and ecosystem function (Holyoak et al., 2005; Loreau, 2010; Ritchie, 2010).”
Functional classifications and their application in phytoplankton ecology (2015, methodology): “Adopting a deductive method (Ritchie, 2010), the robustness of functional traits and classifications should be tested experimentally, based on © 2014 John Wiley & Sons Ltd, Freshwater Biology, 60, 603–619 clearly defined hypotheses addressing the power of traits and their mutual relationships.”
Cross-scale variation in species richness–environment associations (2011, background): “Thus, species with smaller home ranges are likely to respond to environmental signals originating from a smaller range of grains, leading to finer-grained associations with the environment (Ritchie, 2009).”
