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 …

Functional traits, convergent evolution, and periodic tables of niches
Ecology is often said to lack general theories sufficiently predictive for applications. Here, we
examine the concept of a periodic table of niches and feasibility of niche classification …

Managing consequences of climate‐driven species redistribution requires integration of ecology, conservation and social science
Climate change is driving a pervasive global redistribution of the planet's species. Species
redistribution poses new questions for the study of ecosystems, conservation science and …

Global functional diversity of freshwater fish is concentrated in the Neotropics while functional vulnerability is widespread
Worldwide biodiversity assessments have mainly focused on species richness but little is
known about the diversity of species roles, ie functional diversity, while this is a key facet to …

Niche shift can impair the ability to predict invasion risk in the marine realm: an illustration using Mediterranean fish invaders
Climatic niche conservatism, the tendency of species‐climate associations to remain
unchanged across space and time, is pivotal for forecasting the spread of invasive species …

Spatio‐temporal dynamics of exotic fish species in the Mediterranean Sea: Over a century of invasion reconstructed
With over a thousand of introduced species, the Mediterranean is the most heavily invaded
marine region in the world. Yet, the spatio‐temporal dynamics of this bioinvasion has never …
