Soil biodiversity, biological indicators and soil ecosystem services—an overview of European approaches (2012, background): “Important advantages of this approach include possible generalizations across eco-regions, independent from taxonomy [21,25,51].”
Functional diversity: a review of methodology and current knowledge in freshwater macroinvertebrate research (2016, methodology): “…taxon diversity and functional diversity (Haybach et al., 2004; Bêche & Resh, 2007; Heino, 2008; Bazzanti et al. 2009; Bêche & Statzner, 2009; Vandewalle et al., 2010; Gallardo et al., 2011; Feld et al., 2014), while others revealed a positive and saturating relationship (Bady et al., 2005;…”
Land use impacts on biodiversity in LCA: proposal of characterization factors based on functional diversity (2013, background): “In life cycle impact assessment (LCIA), the focus of modeling land use impacts on biodiversity indicators has been mainly on taxonomic measures (Curran et al. 2011; Vandewalle et al. 2010), such as species richness (SR) (Achten et al.”
Handbook of protocols for standardized measurement of terrestrial invertebrate functional traits (2017, unknown): “…in plant ecology has fostered and increasing interest ecologists to adopt a similar trait-based approach in other taxonomic groups (e.g. Poff et al. 2006; Vandewalle et al. 2010; Aubin et al. 2013; Pakeman & Stockan 2014; Pey, Laporte & Hedde 2014; Fournier et al. 2015; Schmera et al. 2015).”
Responses of plant, insect and spider biodiversity to local and landscape scale management intensity in cereal crops and grasslands (2012, unknown): “spiders and bees) can covary with other taxa hence enabling to use them as surrogate measure for changes in other trophic levels (Billeter et al., 2008; Vandewalle et al., 2010).”
