The portfolio concept in ecology and evolution (2015, background): “Although ecologists have used a wide array of definitions to calculate stability (Ives and Carpenter 2007), McNaughton (1977) proposed that the variability of an aggregate community property was inversely related to community stability.”
Experimental design and the outcome and interpretation of diversity-stability relations (2011, background): “The last decade has seen a steady increase in the number of diversity–stability studies (reviewed by Loreau et al. 2001, Ives and Carpenter 2007, Jiang and Pu 2009).”
Dynamic interactions of life and its landscape: feedbacks at the interface of geomorphology and ecology (2010, neutral): “Landforms, Vol. 35, 78–101 (2010) DOI: 10.1002/esp al., 2006; Ives and Carpenter, 2008).”
Framework for understanding marine ecosystem health (2013, background): “Ives & Carpenter (2007) concluded that ‘diversity-stability relationships’ were complex, and that anthropogenic changes often affect stability and di - versity simultaneously.”
Interacting regime shifts in ecosystems: implication for early warnings (2010, background): “But many interactions within ecosystems 100 are capable of producing instabilities of various kinds (Ives and Carpenter 2007, Scheffer 2009).”
General hypotheses in invasion ecology (2014, background): “(2013); see also Heger & Jeschke (2014). This approach may serve the field in revealing which hypotheses work under which circumstances, and which hypotheses should be revised or replaced.”
The Causes and Consequences of Compensatory Dynamics in Ecological Communities (2009, background): “…by increasing the range of species responses to environmental fluctuations (Chesson et al. 2001, Elmqvist et al. 2003, Hughes & Roughgarden 1998, Ives & Carpenter 2007, Ives & Hughes 2002, Ives et al. 1999, Loreau & de Mazancourt 2008, Loreau et al. 2003, McNaughton 1977, Norberg et al. 2001,…”
Restoration of Nontarget Species: Bee Communities and Pollination Function in Riparian Forests (2011, background): “Recent theoretical and empirical work highlights the importance of connectance in determining the stability of the communities in the face of species loss (Ives & Carpenter 2007).”
Complexity and stability of ecological networks: a review of the theory (2018, background): “Modularity Extent to which a network is compartmentalized into delimited modules Food webs: Moore and Hunt (1988), Ives et al. (2000), Krause et al. (2003), Thébault and Fontaine (2010) and Stouffer and Bascompte (2011) Mutualism: Olesen et al.”
Stability and persistence of food webs with omnivory: Is there a general pattern? (2012, background): “Various metrics used to assess stability emphasize the occurrence of stable point equilibria, limit cycles, chaotic orbits, alternative stable states, or the robustness of food webs to species loss (McCann 2000, Dunne et al. 2004, Ives and Carpenter 2007).”
