Testing strength of biotic resistance against an introduced fish: Inter-specific competition or predation through facultative piscivory? [PDF]
, 2012 Biotic resistance is the process where aspects of the receiving environment inhibit the establishment and invasion of an introduced species. Resistance against an introduced fish can be through strong competition and/or predation from resident fishes ...

Temporal introduction patterns of invasive alien plant species to Australia [PDF]
, 2012 We examined temporal introduction patterns of 132 invasive alien plant species (IAPS) to Australia since European colonisation in 1770. Introductions of IAPS were high during 1810–1820 (10 species), 1840– 1880 (51 species, 38 of these between 1840 and ...
