Leaf decomposition and invertebrate colonization responses to manipulated litter quantity in streams (2008, background): “Gammarus are very effective leaf shredders (e.g., Groom and Hildrew 1989, Baldy and Gessner 1997, Dangles et al. 2004) that feed very selectively (Bärlocher and Kendrick 1973, Arsuffi and Suberkropp 1989, Graça et al. 2001).”

Ecological and toxicological effects of inorganic nitrogen pollution in aquatic ecosystems: A global assessment. (2006, background): “Leaflitter decomposition decreased in atmospherically acidified woodland streams because of the negative effects on microbial decomposers (bacteria and fungi), with aquatic invertebrates (detritivore species, mainly) being affected due to changes in food quality and in food availability (Hildrew et ”
The Role of Biodiversity in the Functioning of Freshwater and Marine Benthic Ecosystems (2004, unknown): “In this case, changes in shredder community structure through the loss of a key species caused by acidification had a profound effect on ecosystem functioning (Dangles et al. 2004a).”

Effects of litter diversity on decomposition and biological colonization of submerged litter in temperate and tropical streams (2012, background): “Short-term acidification of stream water associated with these fluctuations (McClain and Elsenbeer 2001) might further limit microbial diversity and activity (Mulholland et al. 1987, Dangles et al. 2004, Baudoin et al. 2008).”

Diversity and activity of aquatic fungi under low oxygen conditions (2009, background): “Fungal activity on leaves is affected by several environmental factors, such as dissolved nutrients in water (Suberkropp & Chauvet, 1995; Gulis & Suberkropp, 2003a), temperature (Chauvet & Suberkropp, 1998), turbulence (Webster, 1975) and pH (Dangles et al., 2004).”
