Positive interactions in communities.
TL;DR: Evidence for the importance of positive interactions - facilitations - in community organization and dynamics has accrued to the point where it warrants formal inclusion into community ecology theory, as it has been in evolutionary biology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inclusion of facilitation into ecological theory
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of facilitation in the organization of terrestrial and aquatic communities has been investigated, and the importance of a wide variety of facilitative interactions has been considered.

Journal ArticleDOI
Centuries of Human-Driven Change in Salt Marsh Ecosystems
TL;DR: It is concluded that the best way to protect salt marshes and the services they provide is through the integrated approach of ecosystem-based management.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global shifts towards positive species interactions with increasing environmental stress
TL;DR: A synthesis of 727 tests of the stress-gradient hypothesis in plant communities across the globe shows that plant interactions change with stress through an outright shift to facilitation (survival) or a reduction in competition (growth and reproduction).
