Traits and impacts of introduced species: a quantitative review of meta-analyses
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Hydrobiologia"
DOI: 10.1007/s10750-020-04378-9
Abstract: Despite significant growth in the information on introduced species (NIS), agreement on their comparative fitness and effects on native (NAT) communities is heterogeneous. Hypotheses aimed at explaining their fitness and impacts are as often supported… read more here.

The parakeet protectors: Understanding opposition to introduced species management.
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Journal of environmental management"
DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2017.11.036
Abstract: The surveillance and control of introduced and invasive species has become an increasingly important component of environmental management. However, initiatives targeting 'charismatic' wildlife can be controversial. Opposition to management, and the subsequent emergence of social… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0030605319001364
Abstract: Abstract The introduction of mammal predators has been a major cause of species extinctions on oceanic islands. Eradication is only possible or cost-effective at early stages of invasion, before introduced species become abundant and widespread.… read more here.

Epibiotic pressure contributes to biofouling invader success

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-05470-2
Abstract: Reduced competition is a frequent explanation for the success of many introduced species. In benthic marine biofouling communities, space limitation leads to high rates of overgrowth competition. Some species can utilise other living organisms as… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-82982-y
Abstract: Exploring shifts in the climatic niches of introduced species can provide significant insight into the mechanisms underlying the invasion process and the associated impacts on biodiversity. We aim to test the phylogenetic signal hypothesis in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jai.13825
Abstract: This study estimated the length‐weight relationship (LWR) of seven species (six native species and one introduced species) in two small perennial watercourses of the Choco region of Ecuador. Specimens were collected bimonthly with two different… read more here.

Rapid niche shifts in introduced species can be a million times faster than changes among native species and ten times faster than climate change
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Journal of Biogeography"
DOI: 10.1111/jbi.13649
Abstract: AIMS: As global temperatures rise, the survival of many species may hinge on whether they can shift their climatic niches quickly enough to avoid extinction. Previous analyses among species and populations suggest that species’ niches… read more here.
