Recent years have witnessed growing appreciation for the ways in which human-mediated
species introductions have reshaped marine biogeography. Despite this we have yet to …

Historical and modern migrations and dispersal of most marine organisms (intertidal,
benthic, meiofaunal, planktonic, nektonic, or neustonic) are classically interpreted in terms of …

We are witnessing a remarkable ecological revolution in the biodiversity of the shallow
waters of the ocean-the waters that we rely on for fisheries, for industry, and for recreation …

The scale of invasions by crustaceans in marine and estuarine waters globally has been
vastly underestimated. This underestimation derives from two primary sources: First, most of …

Marine aliens are non-native species that have been transported across major geographical
barriers by human activities, involving vectors that move propagules along pathways …

The transport of organisms across oceans is an anthropogenic agent of global change that
has profoundly affected the natural distribution of littoral biota and altered the makeup of …

A critical component of—and a limitation on—interpreting community structure is a detailed
understanding of the ecological and evolutionary history of the assemblage of species in …

Marine biogeographic realms have been inferred from small groups of species in particular
environments (eg, coastal, pelagic), without a global map of realms based on statistical …

Biological invasions are a major driver of biodiversity loss and socioeconomic burden
globally. As invasion rates accelerate worldwide, understanding past invasion dynamics is …

▪ Abstract Biological invasions of marine habitats have been common, and many patterns
emerge from the existing literature. In North America, we identify 298 nonindigenous species …
