• Effects of large-scale anthropogenic development on juvenile lemon shark (Negaprion brevirostris) populations of Bimini, Bahamas (2008, unknown): “These species can also exert strong top-down effects, and their removal can result in trophic cascades and the entire restructuring of ecosystems (Daskalov 2002; Myers et al. 2007).”
• Direct and indirect trophic interactions of Aurelia sp. (Scyphozoa) in a stratified marine environment (Mljet Lakes, Adriatic Sea) (2007, background): “The decline of fish competitors due to over-fishing has also been suggested as factor favouring jellyfish and contributing to regime shift (Daskalov 2002; Sommer et al. 2002).”

• The key role of zooplankton in ecosystem services: A perspective of interaction between zooplankton and fish recruitment (2021, background): “The decrease of fish stocks in the early 1990s was mainly affected by overfishing due to unregulated fisheries, even though the presence of the invasive non-indigenous species Mnemiopsis leidyi negatively contributed as food competitor of planktivorous fish (Daskalov, 2003, 2002).”
• Biological effects of Mississippi River nitrogen on the northern gulf of Mexico—a review and synthesis (2003, background): “Among many potentially important processes, the contribution to eutrophication by long-term declines in top-down control has not been explored in this region (Jackson et al., 2001; Daskalov, 2002).”
• A Holocene dinocyst record of a two-step transformation of the Neoeuxinian brackish water lake into the Black Sea (2009, background): “This period of increased eutrophication and warming in the Black Sea, combined with overfishing (Daskalov, 2002), led to a trophic food chain collapse, with dinocysts almost replacing the diatoms, and culminating in the invasion of ctenophores (Mnemiopsis leidyi) after 1993.”

• Ontogenetic and seasonal changes in the feeding habits and trophic levels of two small pelagic fish species (2012, background): “Therefore, fluctuations in small pelagic populations owing to fishing or natural factors modify the structure and functioning of the marine ecosystem (e.g. Cury et al. 2000, Shannon et al. 2000, Daskalov 2002).”
• Hundred‐year decline of North Atlantic predatory fishes (2003, background): “Indications about historic abundances of, e.g. menhaden in Chesapeake Bay, points to the sea being full of forage ¢sh, while some studies indicate that the abundance of forage ¢shes may have increased in recent time due to cascading e¡ects caused by decreasing predator abundance as a result of human”
• A coupled plankton-anchovy population dynamics model assessing nonlinear controls of anchovy and gelatinous biomass in the Black Sea (2008, methodology): “Using different configurations of the EwE model, Daskalov (2002) and Gücü (2002) showed how increasing fishing pressure and eutrophication indeed changed the Black Sea ecosys- tem.”
• Cascading top-down effects of changing oceanic predator abundances. (2009, background): “In the Black Sea, pronounced declines in dolphins and piscivorous fishes by the early 1970s led to increased abundance of planktivorous fishes, reduced zooplankton biomass , and a doubling of phytoplankton (Daskalov 2002; Daskalov et al. 2007).”
