• Evolutionary pathways among shallow and deep-sea echinoids of the genus Sterechinus in the Southern Ocean (2011, background): “This suggests that the wide bathymetric distribution of the species of the Antarctic continental shelf reflects the oscillations in the extension of the ice shelf, supposing that these were the species that could re-colonize the shelf when the ice receded during the following interglacial period (Th”
• Climate-dependent evolution of Antarctic ectotherms: An integrative analysis (2006, background): “This may characterize Antarctic lithodids as well (Thatje et al., 2005).”
• Ecosystem effects of ocean acidification in times of ocean warming: a physiologist’s view (2008, background): “At this point geographical barriers such as deep-sea trenches or currents (e.g. the circum-Antarctic current) may become important (Thatje et al. 2005).”
• Predation in the marine fossil record: Studies, data, recognition, environmental factors, and behavior (2019, background): “found on the shelf, but they are present on the continental slope (Aronson et al., 2015a, 2015b; Thatje et al., 2005).”
• The Antarctic-Magellan connection: Macrobenthos ecology on the shelf and upper slope, a progress report (2005, background): “Decapods and fish were previously well represented in Antarctic waters, but impoverished in the course of Antarctic cooling (Thatje et al., 2005a and lit. therein); other groups incl. pycnogonids, amphipods, isopods (and teleost fish) have undergone marked radiations (Lörz and Held, 2004).”
• Ecological role of large benthic decapods in marine ecosystems: a review (2012, background): “Lithodid crabs recolonizing Antarctica may restructure the benthic community via Field Thatje et al. (2005), predation and bioturbation Smith et al. (2011) Cancer spp. including Dungeness, are able to exert biting forces (claws) greater Lab Taylor (2000) than most other animals.”
• Global bottlenecks in the distribution of marine Crustacea: temperature constraints in the family Lithodidae (2009, background): “Despite the substantial evidence for cold-water preferences or restrictions (Zaklan, 2002a; Thatje et al., 2005), the exact nature of the relationship between biogeography and temperature has not yet been examined in this group.”
• Contributions of larval biology to crustacean research: a review (2006, background): “Lithodids, or “king crabs”, are likely candidates for becoming future invaders of cold waters, especially due to larval predaptations to both low temperatures and planktonic food limitation at high latitudes (for recent review, see Anger et al., 2004; Thatje et al., 2005).”
• Rapid dissolution of shells of weakly calcified Antarctic benthic macroorganisms indicates high vulnerability to ocean acidification (2009, background): “…2000, but see Aronson et al. 2007) or a protracted evolutionary history that has selected against robust shell calcification due to an absence of shell-crushing invertebrates, such as crabs and heavily jawed fish (Vermeij 1978, Thatje et al. 2005, Aronson et al. 2007, McClintock et al. 2008).”
