• Predation contributes to invasion resistance of benthic communities against the non-indigenous tunicate Ciona intestinalis (2011, background): “…Rd, Hong Kong, People’s Republic of China e-mail: cdumont@hku.hk opportunistic colonizers, including non-indigenous species, which often settle and establish into the fouling communities developing on these structures (Glasby and Connell 1999; Bulleri and Airoldi 2005; Herborg et al. 2009).”

• Ecology of freshwater shore zones (2010, background): “Biological communities and distributions change regularly along an elevational gradient (or its underwater equivalent, the bathymetric gradient), from offshore waters onto the shoreline, and then upslope into upland communities (Fig. 6; Šapkarev 1975; Dall et al. 1984; Keddy and Reznicek 1986; Stray”

• Conservation challenges in urban seascapes: promoting the growth of threatened species on coastal infrastructures (2012, background): “Indeed, the different sides of marine infrastructures provide distinct habitats for the growth of a variety of macroalgae and invertebrate species (e.g. Bacchiocchi & Airoldi 2003; Bulleri & Airoldi 2005; Burt et al. 2009).”
