Why forests appear resistant to exotic plant invasions: intentional introductions, stand dynamics, and the role of shade tolerance (2009, unknown): “A recent, highly compre hensive, global compilation of exotic plants "strongly invasive in natural areas" by Weber (2003) - considered to be by far the most complete overview of invasive plant species (Pysek 2004) - found that 354 of the 427 (81%) species originated from intentional introductions.”
Gorging on gobies: beneficial effects of alien prey on a threatened vertebrate (2006, background): “…in particular, can be devastating (Janssen and Jude 2001; Ricciardi and MacIsaac 2000; French and Jude 2001; Ricciardi 2001; O’Dowd et al. 2003; Ruiz and Carlton 2003; Mooney et al. 2004; Steinhart et al. 2004a), increased Water Snake growth rate and body size resulting from a diet shift to…”
The advantages and disadvantages of being introduced (2006, background): “Since by far the main type of vector for human transport of species into new regions is commercial trade (Ruiz and Carlton 2003; D’Antonio et al. 2004), the globalization of trade implies the globalization of species introductions (Olden et al.”
Characterised and Projected Costs of Nonindigenous Species in Canada (2006, background): “Given the importance of vectors to the introduction of new invaders (Ruiz and Carlton 2003), a national ‘biosecurity’ policy has been advocated for the 56”
Changes in Global Economies and Trade: the Potential Spread of Exotic Freshwater Bivalves (2007, background): “Recently, risk assessment has been an approach used to evaluate the potential mechanisms of spread and introduction of invaders for a variety of systems and types of species (reviewed in Ruiz and Carlton 2003a; Anderson et al. 2004).”
Fifty years of invasion ecology – the legacy of Charles Elton (2008, background): “Although Elton (1958) mentioned dispersal in various ways, modern studies have revolutionized the study of dispersal, for instance through the conceptualization, description and parameterization of invasion pathways (Ruiz & Carlton, 2003; Hulme et al ., 2008).”
BIOTIC RESISTANCE TO INVASION: NATIVE PREDATOR LIMITS ABUNDANCE AND DISTRIBUTION OF AN INTRODUCED CRAB (2005, background): “In recent times, however, the observed rates and effects of invasion have increased dramatically across many geographic regions, habitats, and taxonomic groups (Ruiz and Carlton 2003 and references therein).”
The Economic Impacts of Aquatic Invasive Species: A Review of the Literature (2006, background): “Biolo gists assert that preventative measures are the best to control the spread of unintentional aquatic in vasive species (Ruiz and Carlton 2003).”
Influence of suspended and off-bottom mussel culture on the sea bottom and benthic habitats: a review. (2011, background): “In addition to being implicated in the introduction of a great proportion of exotic species in coastal waters around the world (Carlton 1992; Ruiz and Carlton 2003), many studies have shown that suspended bivalve culture sites act as a focus for a large number of invasive species, including…”
Niche‐based modelling as a tool for predicting the risk of alien plant invasions at a global scale (2005, unknown): “South Africa is not only severely impacted by alien invasive species (Richardson et al., 2000a), but as a biodiversity hotspot, it serves as an important r 2005 Blackwell Publishing Ltd, Global Change Biology, 11, 2234–2250 donor of invasive species for other parts of the world (Pyšek, 2004).”
Twenty years of zebra mussels: lessons from the mollusk that made headlines (2009, background): “…the demonstration that ballast-water is an important pathway of introduction for the zebra mussel and many other freshwater and marine species (Ruiz and Carlton 2003), mandatory ballast-water controls were instituted for the US only in 2004, and allow for many Twenty years of zebra mussels DL…”
Confronting the wicked problem of managing biological invasions (2016, background): “A substantial literature recognizes the importance and addresses the issue of vector (or pathway) prioritization (e.g. see Ruiz and Carlton 2003, Hulme 2009, Essl et al. 2015).”
