Raising the flag on marine alien fouling species (2017, background): “Yachts have been highlighted as having the potential to transfer marine alien species in several regions across the world (Floerl et al. 2005; Davidson et al. 2010; Clarke Murray et al. 2011; Brine et al. 2013; Ros et al. 2013; Zabin et al. 2014).”
Ascidians as models for studying invasion success (2015, background): “Moreover, local and regional dispersal may be facilitated by pleasure craft and/or commercial vessels, which may be largely responsible for secondary spread to adjacent ports and harbors (Murray et al. 2011).”
Climate change, non‐indigenous species and shipping: assessing the risk of species introduction to a high‐Arctic archipelago (2014, background): “Marine vector-based risk assessment methodology is well established in the scientific literature (Campbell & Hewitt, 2011; Keller et al., 2011; Chan et al., 2012; Floerl et al., 2013) and in management arenas (Clarke et al., 2003; Gollasch, 2006).”
