Growth rate–stoichiometry couplings in diverse biota (2003, background): “Understanding these interactions is one of the major themes in the emerging science of biocomplexity (Michener et al. 2001).”
Paradigm shifts in marine fisheries genetics: ugly hypotheses slain by beautiful facts (2008, background): “The existence of biologically differentiated populations, so-called ‘biocomplexity’ (Michener et al. 2001), even in marine pelagic fishes (Mitchell 2006; Ruzzante et al. 2006), has been credited with a major role in conferring resilience and in buffering overall productivity of fish population…”
Payments for ecosystem services as commodity fetishism (2010, background): “These properties are also subject to nonlinear or chaotic dynamics, unpredictable behaviour and interactions that span multiple levels of biological organisation or spatio-temporal scales (Michener et al., 2001; Cottingham, 2002; Cadenasso et al., 2006).”
Long‐distance biological transport processes through the air: can nature's complexity be unfolded in silico? (2005, background): “…the critical role of turbulence, the wide range of relevant spatial and temporal scales and the profound effect of structural heterogeneity — along with non-linear interdependence among multiple influential factors, are typical characteristics of a complex biological system (Michener et al., 2001).”
The remote environmental assessment laboratory's acoustic library: An archive for studying soundscape ecology (2012, background): “Third, because acoustic monitoring systems can simultaneously monitor in multiple locations, acoustical variances can be compared to environmental heterogeneity and landscape structure (Thompson et al., 2001; Michener et al., 2001; West et al., 2001; Pijanowski et al., 2011b).”
Ecological Systems as Complex Systems: Challenges for an Emerging Science (2010, background): “There is widespread consensus that ecological complexity emerges from the interactions between organisms and their biotic and abiotic environments, and attempts to clarify these basic notions have produced several useful conceptual definitions of ecological complexity [4,5].”
Sustainable pest management for cotton production. A review (2011, background): “that affect, sustain, or are modified by, living organisms, including humans’ (Levêque and Mounolou 2001; Michener et al. 2001).”
