Early detection of marine non-indigenous species on Svalbard by DNA metabarcoding of sediment
Polar Biology, 2021 Non-indigenous species (NIS) in the Arctic have an increased likelihood of arrival from ship traffic in the region, while the survival potential of the species becomes more likely in a warming environment.

Comparative feeding behaviour of native and introduced terrestrial snails tracks their ecological impacts [PDF]
NeoBiota, 2019 A developing body of theory and empirical evidence suggest that feeding behaviour as measured by the functional response (FR) can assist researchers in assessing the relative potential, ecological impacts and competitive abilities of native and ...
