Recent advances in the study of long‐distance dispersal of aquatic invertebrates via birds
AJ Green, J Figuerola - Diversity and Distributions, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
Although Darwin pioneered the study of long‐distance dispersal (LDD) of aquatic
invertebrates via waterbirds, it remains in its infancy as a modern discipline. A handful of …

Emerging global role of small lakes and ponds: little things mean a lot
JA Downing - Limnetica, 2010 - ddd.uab.cat
Until recently, small continental waters have been completely ignored in virtually all global
processes and cycles. This has resulted from the neglect of these systems and processes by …
