Invasive Exotic Plants in the Tropical Pacific Islands: Patterns of Diversity (2009, background): “In addition to competitive effects, however, exotic species may alter ecosystem processes such as nutrient supply (Vitousek et al. 1987, Hughes & Denslow 2005, but see Kueffer et al. 2008) and fire frequency (D’Antonio & Vitousek 1992) and may reduce productivity of the land for crops and livestock…”
Elevated enzyme activities in soils under the invasive nitrogen-fixing tree Falcataria moluccana. (2006, methodology): “Although Hughes and Denslow (2005) found elevated P availability with Falcataria invasion, the increase was not as strong as for N, suggesting that P supply may also be relatively limited in this system.”
Short- and long-term impacts of Acacia longifolia invasion on the belowground processes of a Mediterranean coastal dune ecosystem (2008, unknown): “(2008), doi:10.1016/j.apsoil.2008.04.004 N returning from the aboveground biomass to the soil (Witkowski, 1991; Yelenik et al., 2004; Hughes and Denslow, 2005; Allison et al., 2006).”
Minimizing Bias in Biomass Allometry: Model Selection and Log‐Transformation of Data (2011, background): “The species has a high potential to alter ecosystem carbon storage by causing changes to forest structure and nutrient dynamics (Hughes & Denslow 2005, Asner et al. 2008), and thus its allometric characteristics are of considerable importance.”
Conservation of oceanic island floras: present and future global challenges. (2010, background): “…for many oceanic islands (Vitousek, 2004; Kueffer, 2009), oceanic island vegetation may be especially sensitive to even relatively small nutrient changes, as illustrated by the well-known fertilization-driven vegetation changes on islands (Ostertag and Verville, 2002; Hughes and Denslow, 2005).”
Limited native plant regeneration in novel, exotic-dominated forests on Hawai’i (2008, methodology): “In our study, this pathway was accomplished by F. moluccana and C. equisetifolia, and M. faya does so at higher elevations (Vitousek et al., 1987; Vitousek and Walker, 1989, Hughes and Denslow, 2005).”
Benefits of hyperspectral remote sensing for tracking plant invasions (2011, background): “…species have been investigated to distinguish invasive species from native species and to determine the compositional changes of native ecosystems caused by invasions using hyperspectral remote sensing (Asner & Vitousek, 2005; Hughes & Denslow, 2005; Funk & Vitousek, 2007; Asner et al., 2008a,b).”
Foliar and soil concentrations and stoichiometry of nitrogen and phosphorous across European Pinus sylvestris forests: relationships with climate, N deposition and tree growth (2016, background): “…traits and processes, such as the growth strategies of species (Willby, Pulford & Flowers 2001), species diversity (Seastedt & Vaccaro 2001; G€usewell et al. 2005) and ecosystem fluxes, functions and compartmental structure (Elser et al. 1996, 2010; Sterner & Elser 2002; Hughes & Denslow 2005).”
Evolutionary-Economic Principles as Regulators of Soil Enzyme Production and Ecosystem Function (2010, background): “The invasion disproportionately stimulated soil phosphatase activities, and P cycling through the ecosystem increased almost as dramatically as N cycling (Hughes and Denslow 2005).”
The C:N:P stoichiometry of organisms and ecosystems in a changing world: A review and perspectives (2012, background): “soils and detritus; however, some studies have shown that invasive plant litter (Hughes and Denslow, 2005; Whitcraft et al., 2008)”
A model of biogeochemical cycles of carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus including symbiotic nitrogen fixation and phosphatase production (2007, background): “Much less information exists on the strength of N and P interactions in natural ecosystems, though there is some evidence that soil N can limit phosphatase production [Treseder and Vitousek, 2001], and invasive N2 fixers have been shown to accelerate P and N cycling rates in tropical forests in Hawa”
Remote sensing of native and invasive species in Hawaiian forests (2008, result): “Based on our collective findings here, as well as previous work (Baruch & Goldstein, 1999; Durand & Goldstein, 2001; Hughes & Denslow, 2005; Vitousek & Walker, 1989), we contend that there are systematic biochemical and structural differences among native and introduced tree species in Hawai'i.”
Experimental evidence for indirect facilitation among invasive plants (2014, background): “Direct facilitation among invasive species may occur when, for example, N-fixing invasive shrubs (Hughes & Denslow 2005) or herbs (Carino & Daehler 2002) increase soil nitrogen availability, which then benefits other non-native species.”
Faster returns on ‘leaf economics’ and different biogeochemical niche in invasive compared with native plant species (2009, unknown): “This research was supported by the University of Hawaii (G. P. Wilder research funds), and the grants from the Spanish Government (CGL2006-04025/BOS and Consolider-Ingenio Montes CSD2008-00040), the Catalan Government (SGR 2009-458) and the Estonian Ministry of Education and Science (SF1090065s07) a”
NEIGHBORHOOD MODELS OF THE EFFECTS OF INVASIVE TREE SPECIES ON ECOSYSTEM PROCESSES (2008, background): “…the potential to modify many soil properties, including soil pH and cation availability (Belnap and Phillips 2001, Ehrenfeld et al. 2001), N and C dynamics (Evans et al. 2001, Hughes and Denslow 2005), and microbial community structure and function (Kourtev et al. 2002, Wolfe and Klironomos 2005).”
Invasive species detection in Hawaiian rainforests using airborne imaging spectroscopy and LiDAR. (2008, background): “Recent work also shows that invasive tree species often express biochemical and physiological properties unique from those of native trees (Baruch & Goldstein, 1999; Funk & Vitousek, 2007; Hughes & Denslow, 2005).”
