• Zoobenthic biodiversity, biomass and abundance at Adelaide Island, Antarctica (2003, background): “There have been and are, however, some extensive deep-water study programmes, particularly in the Weddell Sea (Voß 1988, Galéron et al. 1992, Gutt & Starmans 2001).”
• The spatial structure of Antarctic biodiversity (2014, background): “Ice scour is a key element of marine disturbance in Antarctica (Table 6 [see also Gutt 2001, Gutt and Starmans 2001, Brown et al. 2004, Thrush et al. 2006]).”
• Evolution and diversity of the benthic fauna of the Southern Ocean continental shelf (2004, background): “The intensity and frequency of these scours are major features dictating assemblage structure and population dynamics in the Antarctic continental shelf benthos (Gutt 2000, 2001, Gutt & Starmans 2001, Gutt & Piepenburg 2003).”
• Likely responses of the Antarctic benthos to climate-related changes in physical disturbance during the 21st century, based primarily on evidence from the West Antarctic Peninsula region. (2008, background): “The shallows are seasonally pounded by the largest mean wave heights and frequently scraped by icebergs, estimated to be one of the most intense natural forces (Gutt and Starmans 2001).”
• Antarctic sessile marine benthos: colonisation and growth on artificial substrata over three years (2006, background): “…al. 1974, Dayton 1989, Stanwell-Smith & Barnes 1997), the majority of studies to date have involved description of instantaneous pattern, from which the rates and causal mechanisms of underlying processes are largely inferred (e.g. Barnes & Arnold 2001, Gutt & Starmans 2001, Teixido et al. 2002).”
• Recovery in Antarctic benthos after iceberg disturbance: trends in benthic composition, abundance and growth forms (2004, background): “The major disturbance affecting the benthos of this deep continental shelf is the grounding and scouring of icebergs (Gutt et al. 1996, Gutt & Starmans 2001, Knust et al. 2003).”
• The Antarctic-Magellan connection: Macrobenthos ecology on the shelf and upper slope, a progress report (2005, background): “9) in the Antarctic (e.g. Gutt and Starmans, 1998, 2001; Starmans et al., 1999; Gutt and Piepenburg, 2003) and Magellan benthos (Gutt et al., 1999).”
