A management framework for preventing the secondary spread of aquatic invasive species (2008, background): “Gravity models have proven useful for modeling propagule transport and the risk of species introduction to lakes (Bossenbroek et al. 2001; Leung et al. 2006) and will likely increase in importance as a tool for modeling propagule pressure and the likelihood of aquatic invasive species introductions…”
The Aquarium Trade as an Invasion Pathway in the Pacific Northwest (2011, background): “…to AIS introductions through ballast-water transfer in ships (e.g., Carlton and Geller 1993, Ruiz et al. 1997), transport via trailered boats (e.g., Leung et al. 2006, Rothlisberger et al. 2010), bait-bucket releases by recreational anglers (e.g., Litvak and Mandrak 1993, DiStefano et al. 2009),…”
