Marine Bioinvasion Management: Structural Framework [PDF]
Significant global change has occurred through the accidental and intentional human mediated introductions of species in regions outside of their evolutionary origins can no longer be disputed (e.g., Lubchenco et al. 1991; Carlton 2001; Pimentel 2002). This change is well documented in a variety of terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems (e.g., Drake and

Accumulating time lags across biodiversity levels following land‐use change
Species identity seems central in governing the observed delays at each level of biodiversity, from genetic to functional diversity. In particular, species identity controls the slowest responses at the genetic level, potentially leading to accumulating underestimations of the size and duration of time lags at species, community and functional ...

This study provides global‐scale evidence that the naturalization of European herbaceous species is related to specific germination traits acquired in the native range. The findings indicate that traits such as high germinability, low stratification requirements and responsiveness to scarification act as preadaptations that facilitate naturalization by

The upside-down jellyfish—Cassiopea andromeda (Forsskål, 1775)—is considered an established alien within the eastern Mediterranean Sea, but the species exhibits a highly sporadic occurrence further west within the basin.
