• Assembly mechanisms determining high species turnover in aquatic communities over regional and continental scales (2016, background): “Since environmental conditions vary in space, their spatial pattern might affect the spatial distribution of species (Cottenie 2005).”
• Regeneration: an overlooked aspect of trait‐based plant community assembly models (2016, background): “Finally, in addition to these deterministic drivers of community assembly, some degree of stochastic, probabilistic processes also influence community composition (Hubbell 2001); the relative importance of these mechanisms will likely depend on the scale at which trait–filter relationships are exami”
