Why are invasive plants successful?
Plant invasions, a byproduct of globalization, are increasing worldwide. Because of their
ecological and economic impacts, considerable efforts have been made to understand and …

Chesson's coexistence theory
We give a comprehensive review of Chesson's coexistence theory, summarizing, for the first
time, all its fundamental details in one single document. Our goal is for both theoretical and …

Progress toward understanding the ecological impacts of nonnative species
A predictive understanding of the ecological impacts of nonnative species has been slow to
develop, owing largely to an apparent dearth of clearly defined hypotheses and the lack of a …

Will extreme climatic events facilitate biological invasions?
Extreme climatic events (ECEs)–such as unusual heat waves, hurricanes, floods, and
droughts–can dramatically affect ecological and evolutionary processes, and these events …

Reducing redundancy in invasion ecology by integrating hypotheses into a single theoretical framework
Aim Invasion ecology includes many hypotheses. Empirical evidence suggests that most of
these can explain the success of some invaders to some degree in some circumstances. If …

A synthesis of biological invasion hypotheses associated with the introduction–naturalisation–invasion continuum
With the advent of the Anthropocene, biological invasions have reached an unprecedented
level, and the number of species introductions is still increasing in an ever‐changing world …
