Influence of benthic macrofauna community shifts on ecosystem functioning in shallow estuaries (2014, background): “Ecosystem functioning is defined as the transfer of matter and energy through various levels of biological organization (Bonsdorff et al., 1995; Hooper et al., 2005; Boero and Bonsdorff, 2007).”
A conceptual framework for marine biodiversity and ecosystem functioning (2007, background): “It is evident that the concept of diversity and ecosystem functioning in relation to both temporal (long-term) and spatial scales needs specific attention (Tilman & Kareiva 1997; Ieno et al. 2006; Naeem 2006).”
Marine biodiversity and ecosystem function relationships: The potential for practical monitoring applications (2015, unknown): “…sediment ﬂ ux were present in several studies including Emmerson and Raffaelli (2000) (ammonium ﬂ ux), Waldbusser et al. (2004) (inverse phosphate ﬂ ux), Ieno et al. (2006) (ammonium and phosphate), Bulling et al. (2010) (ammonia only but not with phosphate) and Karlson et al. (2010) (nutrient…”
Biodiversity patterns of free-living marine nematodes in a tropical bay: Cienfuegos, Caribbean Sea (2009, result): “…et al., 2002) emphasizes importance of functional traits over species richness in the effects on ecosystem functioning, while other studies (e.g. Ieno et al., 2006; Norling et al., 2007) suggest that identity of species (i.e. idiosyncratic response) plays a key role in determining these effects.”
Geochemical ecosystem engineering by the mud shrimp Upogebia pugettensis (Crustacea: Thalassinidae) in Yaquina Bay, Oregon: Density‐dependent effects on organic matter remineralization and nutrient cycling (2009, background): “…with the functionally dominant species often being that which has the greatest per-individual effect on sediment turnover or bioirrigation by virtue of having high individual biomass (Lohrer et al. 2004; Solan et al. 2004) or the largest burrow galleries (Ieno et al. 2006; Norling et al. 2007).”
Understanding the Effects of Marine Biodiversity on Communities and Ecosystems (2007, background): “In experiments, richness effects, when they occur, are usually owing to strong effects of a particular species, typically a bioturbator (Emmerson et al. 2001, Ieno et al. 2006).”
Marine biodiversity and ecosystem functioning: what’s known and what’s next? (2015, background): “Biogeochemical fluxes have been a central focus in marine experiments that studied the effects of animal species richness on soft substrates (Raffaelli et al. 2003, Ieno et al. 2006, Norling et al. 2007), but the results have not been summarised prior to the present analysis.”
