Review: Toward management of urban ponds for freshwater biodiversity (2019, background): “Networks of small waterbodies, like ponds (waterbodies with a surface area up to 5 ha; Oertli et al. 2005), are acknowledged to support a large part of regional biodiversity (Williams et al. 2004, Ang elibert et al. 2006, Davies et al. 2008).”
Pond research and management in Europe: “Small is Beautiful” (2012, background): “After the first EPCN meeting in Geneva 2004 (‘‘Conservation and Monitoring of Pond Biodiversity’’; Oertli et al., 2004, 2005), three more congresses have taken place: Toulouse 2006 (‘‘Conservation of pond biodiversity in a changing European landscape’’; Nicolet et al., 2007; Céreghino et al., 2008)”
Eutrophication: are mayflies (Ephemeroptera) good bioindicators for ponds? (2008, methodology): “We will further refer to these small water bodies as ‘‘ponds’’, since most of them correspond to the criteria of the definition of a pond presented by Oertli et al. (2005a).”
Restoring ponds for amphibians: a success story (2009, background): “, 2004), and—together with dragonflies and aquatic plants—they represent a major pond-dependent taxon comprising numerous critically endangered species (Beebee, 1992; Oertli et al., 2005).”
The ecology of European ponds: defining the characteristics of a neglected freshwater habitat (2008, background): “…Pond Biodiversity’’ (Geneva, Switzerland) launched a European network of people and institutions involved in fundamental scientific issues and practical applications needed to protect ponds, the European Pond Conservation Network (EPCN, http://campus.hesge. ch/epcn/, see also Oertli et al., 2005).”
Metacommunity organisation, spatial extent and dispersal in aquatic systems: patterns, processes and prospects (2015, unknown): “The distinction is important, as the communities of lakes may be structured by different factors from those of ponds (Wellborn, Skelly & Werner, 1996; Oertli et al., 2005).”
The conservation value of farmland ponds: Predicting water beetle assemblages using vascular plants as a surrogate group (2010, background): “The conservation of freshwater biodiversity requires urgent information on the ecological quality of ponds (Oertli et al., 2005a).”
Pond conservation: from science to practice (2009, methodology): “In order to address this issue, a collaborative workshop was held in Geneva (Switzerland) in 2004 (Oertli et al., 2005a) resulting in the launch of an international forum—the ‘‘European Pond Conservation Network’’ (EPCN; www.europeanponds.org).”
