• Biochar in bioenergy cropping systems: impacts on soil faunal communities and linked ecosystem processes (2013, background): “Compared with annual crops perennial bioenergy crops support greater soil faunal abundance across many taxa (Bellamy et al., 2009; Felten & Emmerling, 2011; Liang et al., 2012; Makeschin, 1994), although abundances remain lower than in seminatural soils (Brand & Dunn, 1998; Felten & Emmerling, 2011)”
• The ecology and agronomy of Miscanthus sinensis, a species important to bioenergy crop development, in its native range in Japan: a review (2009, background): “sinensis could also provide nesting and shelter sites for birds, but concerns expressed by Bellamy et al. (2009) about the impenetrability of established stands of M. giganteus in England may also apply to monocultural stands of M. sinensis. Considering that E. yessoensis (Nakamura, 1981), E. cioide”
