• The soil food web: structure and perspectives (2002, methodology): “[1,40,41,49,73]) tracking down biologically meaningful explanations is “complicated, challenging, fraught with peril” [87]; still, the experimental approach is the most promising for getting a deeper understanding of the structuring forces of real communities [24,50,53,71]; as stressed before [66], ”

• Vegetation dynamics of predator‐free land‐bridge islands (2006, background): “The matter is trivially simple in principle, but in practice, the challenge of experimentally creating predator-free environments in which herbivores can increase without constraint has proven almost insurmountable (Marquis & Whelan 1994; Schmitz et al. 2000; Sinclair et al. 2000).”
