How do freshwater organisms cross the “dry ocean”? A review on passive dispersal and colonization processes with a special focus on temporary ponds (2015, background): “…high resistance to desiccation and UV radiation (e.g. Van den Broecke et al., 2012), or, as regard nematodes, to their ability to undergo anhydrobiosis (Ptatscheck & Traunspurger, 2014), resting stages are the main dispersal propagules for several organisms in temporary ponds (Rundle et al., 2002).”
Crustacean Species Richness in Temporary Pools: Relationships with Habitat Traits (2004, background): “Conversely, the importance of permanence for both cladocerans and ostracods supports the hypothesis that extinction due to pool drying is a major driving force behind the structuring of microcrustacean communities in temporary pools (Rundle et al., 2002).”
Dispersal ability rather than ecological tolerance drives differences in range size between lentic and lotic water beetles (Coleoptera: Hydrophilidae) (2012, background): “Despite the assumed importance of colonization capacity, we have little understanding of the relative contribution of differences in dispersal ability and establishment success in shaping the observed differences between lentic and lotic lineages (Bilton et al., 2001; Rundle et al., 2002).”
How wide to cast the net? Cross-taxon congruence of species richness, community similarity and indicator taxa in ponds (2006, background): “eral and fluctuating waterbodies, as described elsewhere (Bilton, Foggo & Rundle, 2001; Rundle et al., 2002).”
Inter- and intra-annual variations of macroinvertebrate assemblages are related to the hydroperiod in Mediterranean temporary ponds (2009, background): “These differences may be explained in relation to the capability of many species to move between ponds via dispersal (Bilton et al., 2001; Rundle et al., 2002; Williams, 2006).”
Unravelling nestedness and spatial pattern in pond assemblages (2005, background): “This study shows that local assemblages within a region can show significant levels of nestedness despite being dominated by taxa with good powers of inter-locality dispersal (Rundle et al. 2002).”
