The Role of Biodiversity in the Functioning of Freshwater and Marine Benthic Ecosystems (2004, unknown): “Ecologists are beginning to examine how functional relationships among species change under different flow regimes (Cardinale et al.2002,Biles et al.2003) and how benthic and pelagic components are coupled in thermally stratified lakes and oceans (Palmer et al. 2000, Smith et al. 2000).”
Detritus, trophic dynamics and biodiversity (2004, background): “The biodiversity of detritivores and decomposers is affected by both the quantity and type of detritus (Lake et al. 2000; Palmer et al. 2000).”
Habitat coupling in lake ecosystems (2002, background): “Recent papers have reviewed the importance of linkages between above-sediment and below-sediment processes for the maintenance of freshwater biodiversity (Lake et al. 2000, Palmer et al. 2000).”
Global Change and the Biodiversity of Freshwater Ecosystems: Impacts on Linkages between Above-Sediment and Sediment Biota (2000, background): “Because linkages between above-sediment and aquatic sediment biota have not been extensively explored in freshwater ecosystems (Palmer et al. 2000), our focus on the effects of global environmental change on linkages between above-sediments and sediments has required some speculation.”
