• Climatic variation alters supply‐side ecology: impact of climate patterns on phytoplankton and mussel recruitment (2009, background): “379 Sagarin et al. 1999, Menge et al. 2003, Foster and Dickson 2004, Paine and Trimble 2004, Smith et al. 2006, Britton-Simmons and Abbott 2008, Chan et al. 2008).”
• The ecology of restoration: historical links, emerging issues and unexplored realms (2005, background): “Even post-establishment, a number of restoration studies have shown that management treat- ments, such as grazing and burning, can be highly contingent upon year effects (e.g. Sarr 2002; Bartolome et al. 2004; Foster & Dickson 2004).”
• Assessing grassland restoration success: relative roles of seed additions and native ungulate activities (2006, background): “A combination of adding seeds and increasing microsite availability may be necessary to favour seedling emergence (Burke & Grime 1996; Turnbull, Crawley & Rees 2000; Foster & Dickson 2004).”
• Biodiversity-Ecosystem Function Research: Is It Relevant to Conservation? (2005, background): “Increasing propagule pressure (i.e. increasing dispersal from the regional pool) increases productivity and diversity in grasslands under some conditions (Foster & Dickson 2004, Foster et al. 2004) but not others (Foster & Dickson 2004, Foster et al. 2004, Wilsey & Polley 2003).”
• Invasibility: the Local mechanism driving community assembly and species diversity (2005, background): “…efforts to characterize community assembly processes have reemphasized understanding the importance of interactions between local and regional processes (Levine 2000, Hubbell 2001, Tilman 2004, Foster and Dickson 2004, Jiang and Morin 2004, Steiner and Leibold 2004, Leibold et al. 2004).”
• Contrasting Relationships between Precipitation and Species Richness in Space and Time (2007, result): “This hypothesis is supported by recent work in a Kansas tallgrass prairie showing that water additions had strong positive effects on richness only when combined with seed additions that increased the size of the species pool ( Foster and Dickson 2004 ).”
• Assembly history alters alpha and beta diversity, exotic–native proportions and functioning of restored prairie plant communities (2012, result): “Our results support the few existing studies (Foster & Dickson 2004; Körner et al. 2008; Fukami et al. 2010; Dickson et al. 2010) that found that community assembly history has ecosystem-level ramifications.”
• Resource availability mediates the importance of priority effects in plant community assembly and ecosystem function (2013, background): “In natural communities, larger species pools will likely include plants with more diverse nutrient acquisition traits, and thus the impact of species arrival time on productivity may be stronger (Foster and Dickson 2004, Foster et al. 2004).”
