Invasive alien species are among the main global drivers of biodiversity loss posing major
challenges to nature conservation and to managers of protected areas. The present study …

Recreational marinas are key points for the introduction and secondary spread of non-
indigenous species (NIS). However, little is known about the influence of the habitat …

Aims Spatio‐temporal processes play a key role in ecology, from genes to large‐scale
macroecological and biogeographical processes. Existing methods studying such spatio …

Invasion risks may be influenced either negatively or positively by climate change,
depending on the species. These can be predicted with species distribution models, but …

Non‐native plant pests and pathogens threaten biodiversity, ecosystem function, food
security, and economic livelihoods. As new invasive populations establish, often as an …

The global problem of biological invasions will continue escalating, given inadequate
biosecurity worldwide. Developing stringent biosecurity is hindered by the lacking essential …

Successful control and prevention of biological invasions depend on identifying the sources,
vectors, and pathways that are more likely to originate new invasions. Within this context …

The threat of invasive species to biodiversity and ecosystem structure is exacerbated by the
increasingly concerning outlook of predicted climate change and other human influences …

While some species naturally expand their range by finding suitable climatic and trophic
niches in new areas, others have been transported intentionally or unintentionally by …

Ports of first entry are high-risk locations where invasive species may arrive, establish, and
cause wider potential environmental, economic, social, or cultural harm. Early detection …
