• Biodiversity in metacommunities: Plankton as complex adaptive systems? (2004, background): “Cottenie et al. (2001) measured dispersal rates between adjacent ponds using drift nets in the connecting streams and evaluated how such dispersal might have influenced the composition of adjacent ponds with very different local environmental conditions related to top-down effects of fish predators.”
• The relative importance of dispersal and local processes in structuring phytoplankton communities in a set of highly interconnected ponds (2008, methodology): “Densities (ind L) of rotifers, cyclopoid and calanoid copepods, cladocera and Daphnia were calculated based on the zooplankton counts of Cottenie et al. (2003). Ciliate biovolumes (mm L) were estimated by counting and measuring 50 ciliates per phytoplankton sample, approximating cell shapes by”
• Direct experimental evidence for alternative stable states: a review (2005, background): “…systems like lakes, woodlands and oceans (Scheffer et al. 2001, Resilience and SFI 2004), marine communities (Petraitis and Dudgeon 2004), ponds (Cottenie et al. 2001), forests (McCune and Allen 1985) and rivers (Dent et al. 2002) indicating that ASS can be of significance in the real world.”
• Zooplankton on the move: first results on the quantification of dispersal of zooplankton in a set of interconnected ponds (2004, background): “However, they differ widely both in biotic (e.g. predation pressure, development of littoral zone) and abiotic (e.g. water transparency) characteristics (Cottenie et al., 2001).”
• Species Richness and Distribution of Copepods and Cladocerans and their Relation to Hydroperiod and Other Environmental Variables in Doñana, South-west Spain (2006, unknown): “These factors are likely to include pH or dissolved oxygen, trophic status, phytoplankton composition or presence of fish, as reported from other studies (e.g. Arnott & Vanni, 1993; Armengol et al., 1998; Cottenie et al., 2001; Hobaek et al., 2002).”
• Connectivity and cladoceran species richness in a metacommunity of shallow lakes (2003, background): “The ponds studied are part of the nature reserve ‘De Maten’ (Genk, Belgium) and cover an area of 200 ha [for additional information on the system and a map of the ponds see Cottenie et al. (2001) and Michels et al. (2001a,b)].”
• ZOOPLANKTON METACOMMUNITY STRUCTURE: REGIONAL VS. LOCAL PROCESSES IN HIGHLY INTERCONNECTED PONDS (2003, methodology): “During each of the sampling periods, every pond was sampled twice with a fyke (semiquantitative; catch per unit effort, CPUE), once for two days and once for three days (Cottenie et al. 2001).”
• Long-term trends in zooplankton of Dorset, Ontario, lakes: the probable interactive effects of changes in pH, total phosphorus, dissolved organic carbon, and predators (2008, background): “2003) and connections to colonist, competitor, and predator sources (Cottenie et al. 2001; Beisner et al. 2006).”
• METACOMMUNITY STRUCTURE: SYNERGY OF BIOTIC INTERACTIONS AS SELECTIVE AGENTS AND DISPERSAL AS FUEL (2004, methodology): “Lepomis gibbosus is very common in the pond system studied, whereas Polygonum amphibium is abundant in Pond 13 (Cottenie et al. 2001).”
