A trait-based approach for downscaling complexity in plankton ecosystem models (2009, background): “Re-47 cently, there has been a renewed interest in trait-based approaches in ecology48 both in land (Lavorel and Garnier, 2002; McGill et al., 2006; Westoby and49 Wright, 2006; Ackerly and Cornwell, 2007) and marine (Litchman et al., 2007;50 Litchman and Klausmeier, 2008) ecology.”
Linking traits to species diversity and community structure in phytoplankton (2010, background): “Mean traits change in the direction of increasing fitness (defined as invasion rate when rare, which captures the frequency-dependence of ecological interactions) (Litchman & Klausmeier, 2008).”
Linking metagenomics to aquatic microbial ecology and biogeochemical cycles (2019, background): “As an extreme example of functional redundancy, oxygenic phototrophy is common to all regions of the ocean, but the taxonomic composition of phytoplankton varies tremendously (Litchman and Klausmeier 2008).”
The Multidimensional Stoichiometric Niche (2017, neutral): “, 2008, 2010; Reich, 2014), phytoplankton (Klausmeier et al., 2004; Litchman and Klausmeier, 2008; Quigg et al., 2011), microorganisms (Mouginot et al.”
From Elements to Function: Toward Unifying Ecological Stoichiometry and Trait-Based Ecology (2017, background): “In their review of phytoplankton traits and trade-offs, Litchman and Klausmeier (2008) suggest that the trade-off between nutrient competitive abilities and grazer resistance is key among phytoplankton.”
On the roles of cell size and trophic strategy in North Atlantic diatom and dinoflagellate communities (2013, background): “Though we have focused on cell size and trophic strategy, there are other traits that may also be significant and might be treated in a similar fashion (Litchman and Klausmeier 2008).”
Proterozoic photosynthesis – a critical review (2015, background): “…cyanobacteria (Reynolds et al. 1987), partly because of the limited opportunities for repackaging and vertical transport in the absence of suspension-feeding animals (Logan et al. 1995; Butterfield 2011) and partly because of the sealing effects of benthic microbial mats (Pawlowska et al. 2013).”
Eco‐evolutionary differences in light utilization traits and distributions of freshwater phytoplankton (2011, background): “Trait-based approaches are being increasingly used to explain community organization along various environmental gradients in both terrestrial and aquatic ecology (McGill et al. 2006; Litchman and Klausmeier 2008).”
Phytoplankton blooms in estuarine and coastal waters: Seasonal patterns and key species (2015, background): “ec The composition of bloom communities is important because the phytoplankton include a diversity of taxonomical groups having a wide range of cell size, motility, nutritional requirements, life history, biochemical compositions, and food quality for consumers (Litchman and Klausmeier, 2008).”
