A good understanding of the mechanisms and magnitude of the impact of invasive alien
species on ecosystem services and biodiversity is a prerequisite for the efficient prioritisation …

Climate change is one of the biggest challenges facing development and continuation of
sustainable aquaculture in temperate regions. We primarily consider the ecological and …

Invasion ecology urgently requires predictive methodologies that can forecast the ecological
impacts of existing, emerging and potential invasive species. We argue that many …

Introduced species frequently escape the natural enemies (predators, competitors, and
parasites) that limit their distribution and abundance in the native range. This reduction in …

Harvesting threatens many vertebrate species, yet few whole-system manipulations have
been conducted to predict the consequences of vertebrate losses on ecosystem function …

Invasive species may precipitate evolutionary change in invaded communities. In southern
New England (USA) the invasive Asian shore crab, Hemigrapsus sanguineus, preys on …

Abstract The Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis is a native of freshwater and estuarine
habitats along the east coast of Asia. Invasive populations have existed in northern Europe …

The Asian shore crab, Hemigrapsus sanguineus, is native to coastal and estuarine habitat
along the east coast of Asia. The species was first observed in North America near Delaware …

Oceanography and Marine Biology: An Annual Review remains one of the most cited
sources in marine science and oceanography. The ever increasing interest in work in …

Latitudinal patterns of nonnative species richness suggest fewer successful invasions in the
tropics, relative to temperate regions. One main hypothesis for this pattern is that biotic …
