Climate Change, Aboveground-Belowground Interactions, and Species' Range Shifts (2012, background): “…or belowground enemy release (Engelkes et al. 2008), symbiont availability (Hegland et al. 2009), and loss of the home-ﬁeld advantage of decomposition (Ayres Researchers may need to consider this context when discussing emerging ecosystems (Milton 2003) and novel ecosystems (Hobbs et al. 2006).”
From Reintroduction to Assisted Colonization: Moving along the Conservation Translocation Spectrum (2010, background): “Restoration ecologists have recognized that anthropogenic drivers of environmental change may result in the development of emerging ecosystems; defined as “an ecosystem whose species composition and relative abundance have not previously occurred within a given biome” (Milton 2003).”
Distribution of alien vs. native plant species in roadside communities along an altitudinal gradient in Tenerife and Gran Canaria (Canary Islands) (2005, background): “Further, landscape-level management that reduces disturbance and eradicates alien plants by frequent cleaning may contribute to lower the number of propagules available for plant spread along roads (McNeely, 2000; Forman et al., 2002; Milton, 2003).”
Novel ecosystems: theoretical and management aspects of the new ecological world order (2006, unknown): “Novel ecosystems (also termed ‘emerging ecosystems’, e.g. see Milton, 2003) have species compositions and relative abundances that have not occurred previously within a given biome.”
