- Habitat complexity: approaches and future directions (2011, background): “A number of studies have manipulated habitat complexity while holding surface area constant, or have used rarefied species richness, and have found that species respond to habitat structure independently of surface area (Warfe et al., 2008).”
- Invasive mussels induce community changes by increasing habitat complexity (2012, background): “…species richness with increasing habitat complexity, a uniform index describing both area and structural complexity (e.g., refuge space, fractural dimension, Kostylev et al., 2005; Warfe et al., 2008) will be very useful for further studies that involve comparing habitats very different in nature.”
- Distribution differences and active habitat choices of invertebrates between macrophytes of different morphological complexity (2011, background): “…is in accordance with several other studies reporting higher invertebrate abundance in structurally complex macrophyte habitats, such as Myriophyllum spp., than in structurally simpler macrophyte habitats (e.g., McAbendroth et al. 2005; Warfe and Barmuta 2006; Xie et al. 2006; Warfe et al. 2008).”
- Effects of macrophyte heterogeneity and food availability on structural parameters of the macroinvertebrate community in a Pampean stream (2011, background): “Warfe et al. (2008) further addressed this question, pointing out that the potential role of vegetation as refuge may be related to the absolute value of interstitial space available to an invertebrate prey but unavailable to his fish predator.”
