Potential impacts of invasive Spartina alterniflora on spring bird communities at Chongming Dongtan, a Chinese wetland of international importance (2009, background): “have altered the structure and composition of native flora and fauna, and thus caused a shift of the native food web in invaded regions (Guntenspergen and Nordby, 2006; Levin et al., 2006; Chen et al., 2007; Neira et al., 2007 ).”
