• Revisiting the catastrophic die-off of the urchin Diadema antillarum on Caribbean coral reefs: Fresh insights on resilience from a simulation model (2006, background): “However, a number of studies have reported substantial increases in grazing rate after an increase in algal production (Carpenter, 1985; Steneck, 1994; Russ and McCook, 1999; Diaz-Pulido and McCook, 2003).”
• Effects of live coral, epilithic algal communities and substrate type on algal recruitment (2004, unknown): “However, there is very little information available on the supply-side processes of tropical algae (Ang 1985; Clifton 1997; Stiger and Payri 1999; Diaz-Pulido and McCook 2002; 2003 ).”
• Effects of herbivores, nutrient enrichment, and their interactions on macroalgal proliferation and coral growth (2009, background): “Other studies have also shown trends for nutrient suppression of macrophytes in the presence of herbivores (Miller et al. 1999; Diaz-Pulido and McCook 2003; McClanahan et al. 2003, 2007).”
• Phase shift to algal dominated communities at mesophotic depths associated with lionfish (Pterois volitans) invasion on a Bahamian coral reef (2011, background): “Additionally, the effects of herbivory versus excess nutrients on the establishment of new macroalgal recruits has been shown to be significant (Diaz-Pulido and McCook 2003), and we predict the continued advancement of foliose macrophytes down to 75 ? m if lionfish populations continue to remove…”

• Coral–macroalgal phase shifts or reef resilience: links with diversity and functional roles of herbivorous fishes on the Great Barrier Reef (2010, background): “…gastropods, polychaetes, amphipods, isopods or hermit crabs) are also unlikely to have influenced our results as macroalgae have been shown to proliferate on inshore reefs of the GBR in cages that excluded herbivorous fishes but not mesoherbivores (Diaz-Pulido and McCook 2003; Hughes et al. 2007).”
• Patch dynamics of coral reef macroalgae under chronic and acute disturbance (2005, unknown): “Other factors impacting algal patch dynamics Although L. variegata is a relatively unpalatable alga (Paul and Hay 1986; Targett et al. 1995), several studies have documented growth limitation by herbivores (de Ruyter van Steveninck et al. 1988b; Jompa and McCook 2002b; Diaz-Pulido and McCook 2003).”
