Facilitation in plant communities: the past, the present, and the future (2007, background): “…impacts of facilitation on ecosystem function (Hector et al. 1999); the concept of ecosystem engineering (Jones et al. 1997; Crain & Bertness 2006; Hastings et al. 2007); the use of indices in plant interaction studies (as hotly debated with respect to competition indices; Markham & Chanway 1996;…”
Do Neotropical peccary species (Tayassuidae) function as ecosystem engineers for anurans? (2010, background): “Email: hbeck@towson.edu 2008) or negative (Byers et al. 2006, Jones et al. 1997) effects on the abundance or diversity of sympatric species (Hastings et al. 2007).”
Elephant-induced structural changes in the vegetation and habitat selection by large herbivores in an African savanna (2011, background): “The importance of the scales of space and time in understanding the importance of ecosystem engineering has been underlined (Hastings et al., 2007).”
Non-indigenous invasive bivalves as ecosystem engineers (2009, background): “In fact, the impact of bivalve ecosystem engineering is not limited to its effects at the scale of colonised patches but it can also affect distant areas (Strayer et al. 2004b; Hastings et al. 2007).”
Habitat complexity and community composition: relationships between different ecosystem engineers and the associated macroinvertebrate assemblages (2011, background): “…Chubut, Argentina e-mail: cruz@cenpat.edu.ar M. C. Sueiro Facultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, Universidad de Buenos Aires, Ciudad Universitaria, Intendente Güiraldes 2160, C1428EGA Buenos Aires, Argentina density (Gutiérrez and Iribarne 2004; Hastings et al. 2007; Bouma et al. 2009).”
Does invasive plant management aid the restoration of natural ecosystems (2009, background): “, 2000), or when the presence of weeds is a symptom rather than the cause of degradation, weed removal, alone, is highly unlikely to restore the ecosystem (MacDougall and Turkington, 2005; Hastings et al., 2007).”
Land cover and land use classification performance of machine learning algorithms in a boreal landscape using Sentinel-2 data (2019, background): “On the other hand, biotic interactions can physically alter landscapes and produce spatial patterns therein, a phenomenon termed ecosystem engineering (Hastings et al. 2007).”
Intertidal mussels as ecosystem engineers: their associated invertebrate biodiversity under contrasting wave exposures (2014, background): “Thus, conservation efforts often focus on preserving ecosystem engineers (Hastings et al. 2007), which should include mussels.”
Recovery of canopy-forming macroalgae following removal of the enigmatic grazing sea urchin Heliocidaris erythrogramma (2010, background): “Less appreciated however, is the often highly context-dependent nature of habitatmodifiers as the importance of such species may be highly variable across space and time (reviewed by Hastings et al., 2007).”
