• Effects of small-scale disturbance on invasion success in marine communities (2007, background): “…that increased disturbance should lead to increased invader success, results from empirical studies do not always support this theory (Hobbs, 1989; DeFerrari and Naiman, 1994; Stachowicz et al., 1999; Seabloom et al., 2003; Gilbert and Lechowicz, 2005; Klein et al., 2005; Gross et al., 2005).”
• Mound building termites contribute to savanna vegetation heterogeneity (2009, background): “Similarly, when fertilizer was experimentally added to temperate grasslands the graminoid herbs richness was reduced (Crawley et al. 2005; Gross et al. 2005).”
• Soil recovery after removal of the N2-fixing invasive Acacia longifolia: consequences for ecosystem restoration (2009, background): “…nutrient-poor ecosystems, nutrient enrichment has been shown to favour invasion by exotic plants, (Maron and Connors 1996; Pickart et al. 1998; Vinton and Burke 1995; Vinton and Goergen 2006; Yelenik et al. 2004), although higher nutrient availability not always favour exotics (Gross et al. 2005).”
• No effect of varying soil resource heterogeneity on plant species richness in a low fertility grassland (2007, background): “…were intended to remove these potential limitations and indeed, by the third year of the experiment we found that species richness per plot was highest with seed addition and cover reduction and lower with uniform, but not patchy, nutrient application in this treatment (Gross et al. 2005).”
