Kelp forest ecosystems: biodiversity, stability, resilience and future (2002, background): “Species such as the common periwinkle (Littorina littorea) and the green and shore crabs (Carcinus maenas, Hemigrapsus sanguineus) have not only invaded, but in many cases have come to dominate the ecosystem (Steneck & Carlton 2001).”
The Colony Structure and Population Biology of Invasive Ants (2003, background): “…of an introduced population is representative of the species as a whole, we risk constructing elaborate theories to explain phenomena that potentially arose from perturbations associated with the introduction and establishment of new populations outside their native range (Steneck & Carlton 2001).”
Macrophytes as habitat for fauna (2009, unknown): “A number of disturbances, including anthropogenic activities, negatively affect macrophyte systems and in some cases bring the systems out of equilibrium (Steneck & Carlton 2001).”
Assessment and Control of Biological Invasion Risks (2006, background): “Fortunately, however, only a fraction of them survive in the new conditions (Steneck and Carlton 2001).”
GLOBAL MARINE BIODIVERSITY TRENDS (2006, background): “CHANGES IN TROPHIC RELATIONSHIPS AND HABITAT: BIOLOGICAL INVASIONS Invasive species, including crabs (153), snails (154), and algae (107), can affect all trophic levels via both top-down and bottom-up effects and by modifying the habitat.”
Invasive seaweeds transform habitat structure and increase biodiversity of associated species (2017, background): “In the Gulf of Maine, rocky subtidal communities are changing at unprecedented rates (Harris & Tyrrell 2001; Steneck & Carlton 2001; Harris & Jones 2005; Mathieson et al. 2008a,b; Steneck et al. 2013).”
How an introduced seaweed can affect epibiota diversity in different coastal systems (2006, background): “…(alien/non-native) species can have strong ecological impacts on resident communities by changing population dynamics, community structure and ecosystem processes (e.g. Bertness 1984; Vitousek et al. 1996; Grosholz et al. 2000; Sakai et al. 2001; Steneck and Carlton 2001; Ross et al. 2004).”
Assessing the Risk of Introducing Exotic Species via the Live Marine Species Trade (2005, background): “For all surveys, we defined local as the coastal states of New England (Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut) and their associated water bodies, ranging from northern Maine to the northern portion of Long Island Sound.”
