Ecological Stoichiometry as an Integrative Framework in Stream Fish Ecology (2010, background): “:P is greater than 178 in 75% of reported data (Cross et al. 2005) and C”
Feeding rates, assimilation efficiencies and growth of two amphipod species on biodeposited material from zebra mussels (2008, background): “…Journal compilation 2008 Blackwell Publishing Ltd 1 Allochthonous leaves are an important energy source in many streams, but are a low-quality food because of low phosphorus and nitrogen contents (Kaushik & Hynes, 1971; Anderson & Cummins, 1979; Friberg & Jacobsen, 1994; Cross et al., 2005).”
From Elements to Function: Toward Unifying Ecological Stoichiometry and Trait-Based Ecology (2017, background): “The consequences of differences in homeostasis between autotrophic and heterotrophic microbes for nutrient cycling have been explored in a number of studies (e.g., Cross et al., 2005; Cotner et al., 2010).”
Biodiversity, ecosystem functioning and food webs in fresh waters: assembling the jigsaw puzzle (2009, background): “From a B-EF perspective, different types of algae and detritus in fresh waters have very different C : nutrient ratios, whereas consumers must maintain their elemental ratios within much tighter bounds (Cross et al., 2005).”
The importance of high-quality algal food sources in stream food webs - current status and future perspectives (2016, background): “The existing literature shows that allochthonous and autochthonous sources differ in their nutritional quality for invertebrates (Cross et al., 2005; Lau et al., 2009a).”
Stable isotopic signatures, tissue stoichiometry, and nutrient cycling (C and N) of native and invasive freshwater bivalves (2010, background): “Low C:N values in food increases nutritional quality by reducing elemental imbalances (Frost et al. 2002, Cross et al. 2005).”
Ecological stoichiometry in leaves, roots, litters and soil among different plant communities in a desertified region of Northern China (2018, methodology): “There are two important methods of detecting the C:N:P stoichiometry (Frost et al., 2002; Cross et al., 2005).”
Ecological Networks in a Changing Climate (2010, background): “For example autotrophs show considerable variation in C:nutrient ratios (even within a single species) and can vary strongly with regard to their nutrient-use efficiencies (Cross et al., 2005; Rhee and Gotham, 1981; Sterner et al., 1997; Vitousek, 1982).”
Resource quality and stoichiometric constraints on stream ecosystem functioning (2009, background): “To date, most of this research has focused on autotrophic pelagic ecosystems, whereas studies in detrital-based systems in general, and particularly in running waters, are still relatively scarce (but see Cross et al., 2005; Evans-White, Stelzer & Lamberti, 2005).”
Diel phosphorus variation and the stoichiometry of ecosystem metabolism in a large spring-fed river (2013, background): “Streams have also provided more nuanced understanding of the indirect effects of metabolism on N assimilation and denitrification (Hoellein et al. 2007, Arango et al. 2008, Mulholland et al. 2008), as well as the coupling of N and P cycles (Cross et al. 2005, Schade et al. 2011).”
The elemental stoichiometry of aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems and its relationships with organismic lifestyle and ecosystem structure and function: a review and perspectives (2011, background): “mary producers and fungi (Cross et al. 2005; Christian et al. 2008), with a similar tendency to have scaling trophic webs with changing C:nutrients”
