during the last centuries, we know surprisingly little about temporal dynamics of alien …

Humans are facilitating the introduction and range expansion of invasive alien species (IAS),
which have negatively impacted ecological and socio-economic systems worldwide …

Biological invasion is increasingly recognized as one of the greatest threats to biodiversity.
Using ensemble forecasts from species distribution models to project future suitable areas of …

Our ability to predict the spread of alien species is largely based on knowledge of previous
invasion dynamics of individual species. However, in view of the large and growing number …

Globalization and economic growth are widely recognized as important drivers of biological
