• The River Discontinuum: Applying Beaver Modifications to Baseline Conditions for Restoration of Forested Headwaters (2010, background): “Meadows can be classified broadly according to the presence or absence of a shrub overstory (Wright et al. 2002), and along a gradient according to age of the meadow, which corresponds with the duration of inundation (Wright et al. 2003).”
• Impacts of ecosystem engineers on community attributes: effects of cushion plants at different elevations of the Chilean Andes (2006, background): “Despite the currently accepted view that both regional and local processes are acting together in structuring local diversity (Ricklefs, 1987), environmental engineering by organisms is seldom recognized as another structuring process at local scales ( Jones et al., 1997; Wright et al., 2003).”
• The Concept of Organisms as Ecosystem Engineers Ten Years On: Progress, Limitations, and Challenges (2006, background): “A partial list includes general models of population dynamics for ecosystem engineers (Gurney and Lawton 1996, Cuddington and Hastings 2004,Wright et al. 2004), analyses of the community impacts of engineers (Wright et al. 2002, Lill and Marquis 2003, Castilla et al. 2004), integration of trophic…”
• Effects of local factors on plant species richness and composition of Alpine meadows (2007, background): “Species richness and composition of vascular plants in grasslands are predominantly controlled by local factors, and only secondarily by factors operating at the landscapescale (Wright et al., 2003).”
• Ecosystem engineering in space and time. (2007, background): “Wright et al. (2003) report that beaver are active at a site for c. 4 years (range: 1–20).”
