Context-Specific Bioturbation Mediates Changes to Ecosystem Functioning (2011, background): “In the case of nitrogen recycling, the close coupling of nitrification/denitrification pathways in burrow walls has been well documented (Kristensen 1985 and refs therein; Gilbert and others 1998; Webb and Eyre 2004 ).”
Effects of population density on the sediment mixing induced by the gallery-diffusor Hediste (Nereis) diversicolor O.F. Muller, 1776 (2006, background): “By modifying the physical, chemical and biological sediment properties, the bioturbation activities of the organisms within soft sediments play a major role in the functioning of marine and limnic ecosystems (Aller, 1982; Posey et al., 1991; Richardson et al., 2002; Kitano et al., 2003; Webb and Eyr”
Mangrove Ecosystems: A Global Biogeographic Perspective (2017, unknown): “Chapter 2 by Duke (2017) sets the stage to help understand the current and past mangrove wetland distribution with a wide-ranging analysis of mangrove biodiversity patterns and evolution based on ancestral biogeography and existing floristics.”
Organic carbon dynamics in mangrove ecosystems : a review (2008, background): “Exclusion experiments have shown that grazing by epifauna significantly reduces microalgal standing stocks (Branch and Branch, 1980; Webb and Eyre, 2004; Kristensen and Alongi, 2006), which in combination with the physical modifications and disturbance of the sediment surface, may have a number of i”
