• Invasive species in Southeast Asia: the knowledge so far (2010, background): “Similarly, in the Southeast Asian wetlands, clear water dominated by macrophyte shifted towards turbid water dominated by planktonic algae following the release of phosphorous through the invasive golden apple snails (Pomacea canaliculata), grazing on aquatic plants (Carlsson et al. 2004).”
• Invader Relative Impact Potential: a new metric to understand and predict the ecological impacts of existing, emerging and future invasive alien species (2017, background): “Prey recognize predators via chemical, visual or auditory cues (Abbott 2006; Gherardi et al. 2011; Carthey & Banks 2014); therefore, experience and co-evolutionary history are prerequisites for prey to react appropriately to a predator (Cox & Lima 2006).”
• Wetland Restoration and Invasive Species: Apple snail (Pomacea insularum) Feeding on Native and Invasive Aquatic Plants (2009, background): “Thus, herbivores in these systems can have profound impacts on community and ecosystem structure (Sheldon 1987; Lodge 1991; Lodge et al. 1998; Van Donk 1998; Carlsson et al. 2004).”
• Species diversity and ecology of Tonle Sap Great Lake, Cambodia (2006, background): “It is a serious rice pest in other Asian countries and has been demonstrated to have a negative effect on wetland ecosystem function in Thailand through the loss of aquatic plants (Carlsson et al., 2004).”
• Effects of common carp on nutrient dynamics and littoral community composition: roles of excretion and bioturbation (2007, background): “Likewise, Carlsson et al. (2004) reported that excretion by the golden apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata) induced a regime shift by enhancing phytoplankton biomass.”
• Aquatic invasive species: challenges for the future (2015, background): “Classic examples of this effect are herbivores (Carlsson et al., 2004; Strayer et al., 2008; Nicholls et al., 2011) and predators (Zaret & Paine, 1973; Witte et al., 1992) that invade communities with low herbivore or predator biomass and cause considerable shifts in the native assemblages via…”
• Alien species in fresh waters: ecological effects, interactions with other stressors, and prospects for the future (2010, background): “to that of severe eutrophication in shallow lakes (Carlsson et al., 2004).”
• Native predators and exotic prey –an acquired taste? (2009, background): “Invasions by exotic species are a growing threat to biodiversity, ecosystem function, and local economies (Mack et al. 2000; Holway et al. 2002; Carlsson et al. 2004), but there are still many gaps in our understanding about why many species do not establish, why well-established exotic species sudd”
• Out of South America: multiple origins of non‐native apple snails in Asia (2008, background): “The loss of macrophytes resulting from unchecked apple snail herbivory drastically alters natural macrophyte communities, leading to shifts in ecosystem state and function (Carlsson et al ., 2004; Carlsson & Lacoursiere, 2005).”
• Progress toward understanding the ecological impacts of nonnative species (2013, background): “ANTHONY RICCIARDI ET AL.268 Ecological Monographs Vol. 83, No. 3 R E V IE W S August 2013 269ECOLOGICAL IMPACTS OF NONNATIVE SPECIES 1999, Simon and Townsend 2003, Baxter et al. 2004, Carlsson et al. 2004, Kurle et al. 2008, Kimbro et al. 2009).”

• Ecosystem Consequences of Biological Invasions (2010, background): “…by animals is another pathway important in aquatic ecosystems; for example, excretion by tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) increases water column and by up to 540% (Figueredo & Giani 2005), and excretion by apple snails (Pomacea caniculatd) increases solution more than tenfold (Carlsson et al. 2004).”
