Stress tolerance and biotic interactions determine plant zonation patterns in estuarine marshes during seedling emergence and early establishment (2011, background): “…Adams 1963; Vince&Snow 1984), interspecific competition (e.g. Snow & Vince 1984; Wilson & Keddy 1985), facilitation (e.g. Bertness & Hacker 1994), as well as the impact of herbivores (e.g. Crain 2008) have been discussed as important drivers of the spatial variation in wetland plant distribution.”
Air temperature and winter mortality: Implications for the persistence of the invasive mussel, Perna viridis in the intertidal zone of the south-eastern United States (2011, background): “Recently, there has been a surge of interest on the effects of multiple environmental stressors (Atalah and Crowe, 2010; Crain, 2008; Firth and Williams, 2009; Fitch and Crowe, 2011) and extreme weather events (Harley et al., 2006; Hughes et al., 2009; Sorte et al., 2010a,b; Wethey et al., 2011) on…”
Interactive and cumulative effects of multiple human stressors in marine systems. (2008, background): “…response to stressors can differ due to changing interactions between component species under different stressor sce- 2008 Blackwell Publishing Ltd/CNRS narios, for instance when species switch from competitive to facilitative interactions under different salinity regimes (e.g. Crain 2008).”
Where do seedlings go? A spatio-temporal analysis of seedling mortality in a semi-arid gypsophyte (2008, background): “Such shifts could be understood through a detailed spatio-temporal examination of the incidence of death causes because a microsite minimizing the likelihood of mortality from abiotic stress in a given moment may no be effective in avoiding grazing pressure (Crain 2007).”
Inclusion of biotic stress (consumer pressure) alters predictions from the stress gradient hypothesis (2009, background): “stress factors strongly interact (Crain 2008; Eskelinen 2008), which ultimately affects the outcome of species interactions.”
