Rising variance: a leading indicator of ecological transition. (2006, methodology): “The model, which was modified slightly from previous papers (Carpenter et al. 1999; Carpenter 2003, 2005; Ludwig et al. 2003), is a system of stochastic differential equations (SDE) for phosphorus density (g m)2) in soil (U ), lake”
Indirect facilitation promotes macrophyte survival and growth in freshwater ecosystems threatened by eutrophication (2012, background): “Nutrient enrichment (nitrogen and ⁄or phosphorus) is one of the most important threats to biodiversity (Suding et al. 2005; Hillebrand et al. 2007), leading to major ecological changes in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems on a global scale (Carpenter 2005).”
Spatial correlation as leading indicator of catastrophic shifts (2010, background): “Such critical transitions have been described, among others, for lakes (Scheffer 1998; Carpenter 2005), for marine and coastal environments (Petraitis and Dudgeon 1999; Daskalov et al. 2007), for terrestrial communities (Handa et al. 2002; Schmitz et al. 2006), and for semi-arid ecosystems…”
Luxury phosphorus uptake in microalgae (2019, background): “Another grave problem of P carried away with wastewater is that it ends up in water bodies causing their eutrophication (Carpenter 2005; Conley et al. 2009; Carpenter and Bennett 2011).”
General Resilience to Cope with Extreme Events (2012, background): “For example, reductions in soil phosphorus content move watersheds farther away from the threshold that causes toxic algae blooms and fish mortality in lakes and reservoirs [32].”
Sustainable intensification of agriculture for human prosperity and global sustainability (2016, background): “Agriculture is the world’s largest contributor to altering the global nitrogen and phosphorus cycles (Carpenter 2005).”
Ecological Stoichiometry, Biogeochemical Cycling, Invasive Species, and Aquatic Food Webs: San Francisco Estuary and Comparative Systems (2011, background): “Years of nutrient loading may result in large sediment reservoirs of nutrients for a considerable time (years) after the rate of loading is reduced (Chapra and Canale, 1991 ; Wetzel, 2001 ; Carpenter, 2005 ).”
