• Identifying the consequences of ocean sprawl for sedimentary habitats (2017, background): “Relationships between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in sedimentary environments are complex (Loreau et al., 2001; Naeem et al., 2009; Schmitz et al., 2015), and in order to accurately predict the effects of disturbances on functions and services, direct measures of functioning are…”
• Scaling from Traits to Ecosystems: Developing a General Trait Driver Theory via Integrating Trait-Based and Metabolic Scaling Theories (2015, background): “…factors, such as organismal traits, and may be influenced by the abundance of that trait already in the local community C(z) as well as the abundance of that trait in the larger landscape, Clandscape(z) (see Gilbert and DeLong, 2015; Laskowski et al., 2015; Schmitz et al., 2015 in this issue).”
• Handbook of protocols for standardized measurement of terrestrial invertebrate functional traits (2017, unknown): “Hence, knowledge of invertebrate traits is key to understanding multi-trophic processes and ecosystem functioning (e.g. Lavorel et al. 2013; Schmitz et al. 2015).”
