The study of the copepod Eurytemora affinis has provided unprecedented insights into
mechanisms of invasive success. In this invited review, I summarize a subset of work from …

With climate change, habitat salinity is shifting rapidly throughout the globe. In addition,
many destructive freshwater invaders are recent immigrants from saline habitats. Recently …

We estimated the influence of planktonic and benthic grazing on phytoplankton in the
strongly tidal, river-dominated northern San Francisco Estuary using data from an intensive …

Ecology Letters (2011) 14: 749–757 Abstract Environmental perturbation, climate change

We present a comprehensive survey of the scientific literature pertaining to non-indigenous
and invasive zooplankton published across the first decades of the twenty-first century (ie …

Salinity is a key control on species distribution in estuaries, but interspecific interactions can
shift distributions of estuarine species away from physiologically optimal salinities. The …

The movement and release of non-indigenous species (NIS) in ship ballast water is a global
threat to the conservation of native aquatic species and habitats. One key to successful NIS …

reproduction, respiration rate and locomotor activity of the new invasive cyclopoid species …

Abstract Specimens of small (< 1 mm) cyclopoid copepods of the genus Oithona were
collected from Sevastopol Bay and an offshore area of the Black Sea. On the basis of a …
