Scale‐dependence and mechanisms of dispersal in freshwater zooplankton (2003, background): “In addition, local zooplankton species richness is positively related to the number of species in the regional pool, perhaps indicating that the supply of colonists limits local diversity (Shurin et al. 2000).”
The role of habitat connectivity and landscape geometry in experimental zooplankton metacommunities (2002, background): “Freshwater zooplankton represent an ideal ecological system to ask the questions posed above for a number of reasons: (1) zooplankton, including crustaceans (copepods and cladocerans) and rotifers, represent an important and diverse group of species throughout the world (Pennak 1989, Shurin et al. ”
INTERACTIVE EFFECTS OF PREDATION AND DISPERSAL ON ZOOPLANKTON COMMUNITIES (2001, background): “Drawing species for the high-dispersal treatment from a larger regional pool would have increased the number of potential invaders, and possibly the impact of the dispersal treatment on trophic structure as well (Shurin et al. 2000).”
Passive internal transport of aquatic organisms by waterfowl in Doñana, south-west Spain (2003, background): “The importance of dispersal limitation vs. local processes in the structuring of communities is an important topic in community ecology (Shurin, 2000; Shurin et al., 2000 ).”
The Monopolization Hypothesis and the dispersal–gene flow paradox in aquatic organisms (2002, background): “…artificial introductions of taxa from the regional species pool into zooplankton communities in isolated ponds, indicating that the community composition in these ponds is not determined by constraints in dispersal but rather by local interactions (see also Shurin et al., 2000; Hobæk et al., 2002).”
DISPERSAL LIMITATION, INVASION RESISTANCE, AND THE STRUCTURE OF POND ZOOPLANKTON COMMUNITIES (2000, background): “The shape of the pattern of local with respect to regional richness also depends on the choice of the regional scale (Angermeier and Winston 1998, Srivistava 1999, but see Shurin et al. 2000 for a scale-independent test with zooplankton).”
Connectivity and cladoceran species richness in a metacommunity of shallow lakes (2003, background): “Shurin et al. (2000) found that local species richness was positively related to the number of species in the surrounding area, a result that may suggest a large role for dispersal limitation.”
The metacommunity concept: a framework for multi-scale community ecology (2004, background): “More important, however, is that the behaviour of actual metacommunities may depend strongly on how the species pools have evolved (Shurin et al. 2000; Amarasekare 2003; Leibold & Miller 2004).”
ZOOPLANKTON METACOMMUNITY STRUCTURE: REGIONAL VS. LOCAL PROCESSES IN HIGHLY INTERCONNECTED PONDS (2003, background): “Shurin et al. (2000) found observational evidence for the importance of regional factors.”
Mechanisms, effects, and scales of dispersal in freshwater zooplankton (2004, background): “For example, after controlling for scale, freshwater zooplankton show linear, positive correlations between local and regional richness (Shurin et al. 2000).”
Stygobiotic crustacean species richness: a question of numbers, a matter of scale (2010, background): “On the contrary, a linear relationship between local and regional species richness holds true for surface zooplankton (Shurin et al., 2000), characterized by high dispersal ability.”
THE LOCAL–REGIONAL RELATIONSHIP: IMMIGRATION, EXTINCTION, AND SCALE (2005, background): “The opposite error of pseudosaturation, or noninteractive communities with curvilinear local–regional richness relationships, has only been shown in the case of inappropriate local or regional scales (Caley and Schluter 1997, Srivastava 1999, Shurin et al. 2000).”
Species Richness and Distribution of Copepods and Cladocerans and their Relation to Hydroperiod and Other Environmental Variables in Doñana, South-west Spain (2006, background): “Larger areas contain a higher number of species, according to species–area relationships reported in other zooplankton studies (Dodson, 1992; Shurin et al., 2000 ).”
Recovery of zooplankton assemblages in mountain lakes from the effects of introduced sport fish (2001, background): “Although zooplankton are considered to be highly effective dispersers over vast distances (e.g., >100 km) of lowrelief terrain ( Shurin et al. 2000 ), physical dispersal barriers (e.g., mountain ranges) may impede movement of microcrustaceans between lakes in mountainous landscapes.”
