Impacts of invasive species on food webs: a review of empirical data
We review empirical studies on how bioinvasions alter food webs and how a food-web
perspective may change their prediction and management. Predation is found to underlie …

How to invade an ecological network
C Hui, DM Richardson - Trends in ecology & evolution, 2019 - cell.com
Invasion science is in a state of paradox, having low predictability despite strong, identifiable
covariates of invasion performance. We propose shifting the foundation metaphor of …

Invader Relative Impact Potential: a new metric to understand and predict the ecological impacts of existing, emerging and future invasive alien species
Predictions of the identities and ecological impacts of invasive alien species are critical for
risk assessment, but presently we lack universal and standardized metrics that reliably …
