Does residence time affect responses of alien species richness to environmental and spatial processes? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
One of the most robust emerging generalisations in invasion biology is that the probability of invasion increases with the time since introduction (residence time). We analysed the spatial distribution of alien vascular plant species in a region of north-
