Infauna fromZostera marina L. meadows in Norway. Differences in vegetated and unvegetated areas (2010, background): “In accordance with our study, Ellingsen & Gray (2002) also recorded high diversity with species usually represented by a single individual, indicating similar broad-scale faunal diversity patterns in deep shelf communities and shallow water assemblages.”
Paleoecology of the Greater Phyllopod Bed community, Burgess Shale (2008, background): “In particular, most species in modern benthic faunas have small spatial ranges (Ellingsen and Gray, 2002), which could be comparable to small temporal ranges of species in the GPB (for discussion see McKinney and Frederick, 1999).”
Rare species, habitat diversity and functional redundancy in marine benthos (2007, result): “Our data supports this, finding a similar proportion of unique (38%) plus duplicate (16%) species to other continental shelf areas, despite differences between sampling techniques (Norway 36– 39% uniques plus duplicates (Ellingsen, 2001, 2002; Ellingsen and Gray, 2002); Hongkong 45% uniques plus dup”
Multivariate dispersion as a measure of beta diversity. (2006, methodology): “%) and water depth (m) (Ellingsen & Gray 2002).”
A diversity of beta diversities: straightening up a concept gone awry. Part 2. Quantifying beta diversity and related phenomena (2010, background): “…Ruokolainen 2008, Ricotta and Burrascano 2009), and some studies have indeed used indices that are not derivable from alpha and gamma diversity and therefore do not correspond to any beta component (Oliver et al. 1998, Ellingsen and Gray 2002, Hewitt et al. 2005, Jankowski et al. 2009, Qian 2009).”
Strength, slope and variability of marine latitudinal gradients (2004, background): “…organisms were investigated and significant latitudinal gradients were found (Rex et al. 1993, 2000, Roy et al. 1998, 2000b, Gray 2002 [for the northern hemisphere], Macpherson 2002) or not found (Wilson 1998, Barnes & Arnold 2001, Ellingsen & Gray 2002, Gray 2002 [for the southern hemisphere]).”
Deep, diverse and definitely different: unique attributes of the world's largest ecosystem (2010, background): “…species richness (macrofauna) in the NE Atlantic, or increasing species diversity (nematodes) from the tropics northwards, is probably the most debated (Boucher and Lambshead, 1995; Rex et al., 2000, 2001; Mokievsky and Azovsky, 2002; Lambshead et al., 2000, 2001, 2002; Ellingsen and Gray, 2002).”
Marine nematode deep‐sea biodiversity – hyperdiverse or hype? (2003, background): “Ellingsen & Gray (2002) report that No species spanned the entire sampling area in their coastal macrofauna data for the Norwegian continental shelf so it seems likely that deep-sea species may have higher dispersal ranges than shallow-water species, which is counter-intuitive but is probably…”
Some solutions to the multivariate Behrens–Fisher problem for dissimilarity‐based analyses (2017, methodology): “The first dataset of interest was the benthic marine soft-sediment macrofaunal dataset from Norway described by Ellingsen & Gray (2002) and analysed in Section 4 above.”
Testing of null hypotheses in exploratory community analyses: similarity profiles and biota-environment linkage (2008, background): “…Gray was a strong advocate of the insights obtainable from exploratory studies of gradients and did much to demonstrate their efficacy in the contexts of monitoring for pollution and studying biodiversity (see Gray et al., 1988; Gray et al., 1990; Ellingsen and Gray, 2002, amongst many others).”
The species–accumulation curve and estimation of species richness (2003, methodology): “With marine data sets we routinely operate with hundreds of species (Grassle & Maciolek 1992; Gray et al. 1997; Ellingsen & Gray 2002); yet only He & Legendre's (1996) analysis of tree data from a tropical forest in Malaysia with 783 species approaches the richness of the marine data.”
Richness and distribution of sponge megabenthos in continental margin canyons off southeastern Australia (2007, background): “This terminology is consistent with the use of pooled grabs (‘point’ richness) in the analysis of marine benthic assemblages (Ellingsen 2002, Ellingsen & Gray 2002).”
