Niche Breadth: Causes and Consequences for Ecology, Evolution, and Conservation (2020, background): “The positive impact of biodiversity on ecosystem functioning occurs via complementarity among functionally diverse forms or via a numerical sampling effect by which diverse communities are more likely to contain single highly productive species (Loreau and Hector 2001).”
Diversity increases carbon storage and tree productivity in Spanish forests (2014, background): “62 Two main non-exclusive mechanisms of the positive effects of diversity on 63 ecosystem functioning have been proposed: the complementarity and the selection 64 effects (Grime, 1998; Loreau & Hector, 2001).”
How biodiversity affects ecosystem functioning: roles of infaunal species richness, identity and density in the marine benthos (2006, background): “Findings from microbial (e.g. Bell et al. 2005), terrestrial plant and soil communities (reviewed in Loreau et al. 2001), as well as freshwater and marine invertebrate commu- © Inter-Research 2006 · www.int-res.com*Corresponding author.”
Biodiversity and Ecosystem Functioning (2014, background): “They found stronger evidence for complementarity than for selection effects in the BIODEPTH experiments (Loreau & Hector 2001), as did Fargione et al. (2007) for the Cedar Creek data, and as did meta-analyses of many biodiversity experiments, especially in longer-term experiments (Cardinale et al.…”
Do individual plant species show predictable responses to nitrogen addition across multiple experiments (2005, background): “Recent discussion in the literature about the sampling effect (Huston 1997, Loreau and Hector 2001, Wardle 2001, Aarssen et al. 2003) has highlighted the importance of considering the responses of individual species to perturbations.”
Partitioning the effects of biodiversity and environmental heterogeneity for productivity and mortality in a tropical tree plantation (2008, methodology): “The additive partitioning method developed by Loreau & Hector (2001) revealed a significant positive complementarity effect for plot basal area and a significant negative effect of selection.”
Farmers' preferences for crop variety traits: Lessons for on-farm conservation and technology adoption (2010, background): “including impairment of their capability to produce (e.g., Loreau and Hector, 2001; Naeem et al. ,”
Biodiversity effects and transgressive overyielding (2008, methodology): “In fact, in a re-assessment by Cardinale et al. (2007), using those studies for which an additive partitioning analysis (Loreau and Hector 2001) could be carried out, it turned out that selection or sampling effects were far less general than originally suggested by Cardinale et al. (2006).”
Tree species diversity and ecosystem function: Can tropical multi-species plantations generate greater productivity? (2006, background): “Over the last decade a number of studies in experimental temperate grasslands have asserted that species richness or species diversity increases productivity (Hector et al., 1999; Loreau and Hector, 2001; Tilman et al., 1997, 1996).”
