Quantifying Invasiveness Risk of Non‐Native Freshwater Fishes in South Korea Under a Changing Climate

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 1, February 2025.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions pose a serious threat to native biodiversity, and climate change intensifies the risk of non‐native species invasion in human‐altered environments, particularly in freshwater ecosystems. In South Korean freshwaters, the number of non‐native fish species increased significantly since the early 1950s.
