Are alien fish a reliable indicator of river health (2005, neutral): “…generalist resource requirements and a variety of life history attributes enabling them to persist where many native species could not (Arthington & Mitchell, 1986; Bruton, 1986; Lodge, 1993; Williamson & Fitter, 1996; Ricciardi & Rasmus-sen, 1998; Rosecchi, Thomas & Crivelli, 2001; Koehn, 2004).”
Response of non-native lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) to 15 years of harvest in Yellowstone Lake, Yellowstone National Park (2011, background): “2009), and large-scale removals of other fish species are likely to be considered in the future (Kolar and Lodge 2002; Koehn 2004; DeGrandchamp et al. 2008).”
Freshwater biodiversity: importance, threats, status and conservation challenges (2006, background): “Widespread invasion and deliberate introduction of exotic species adds to the physical and chemical impacts of humans on fresh waters, in part because exotics are most likely to successfully invade fresh waters already modified or degraded by humans (e.g. Bunn & Arthington, 2002; Koehn, 2004).”
Effects of a rapidly increasing population of common carp on vegetative cover and waterfowl in a recently restored Midwestern shallow lake (2009, background): “Since then, it has spread widely and has currently reached very high densities in many regions in both the northern and southern hemispheres (Neess et al., 1957; Crivelli, 1983; Koehn, 2004; Schrage & Downing, 2004).”
Ecological Impacts of Nonnative Freshwater Fishes (2011, background): “…(2005) Cyprinus carpio Multiple species Australia Japan Bioturbidation: increased suspended solids and nutrients Decreased abundance of macroinvertebrates E P Koehn (2004) Matsuzaki et al.

Seasonal Distribution, Aggregation, and Habitat Selection of Common Carp in Clear Lake, Iowa (2008, neutral): “The common carp Cyprinus carpio is an adaptable freshwater species that is capable of rapidly colonizing pristine as well as disturbed habitats (Panek 1987; Koehn 2004).”

Experimental Evidence from Causal Criteria Analysis for the Effects of Common Carp Cyprinus carpio on Freshwater Ecosystems: A Global Perspective (2015, background): “The common carp (Cyprinus carpio, Cyprinidae; hereafter, “carp”) has long been regarded as a highly invasive and nox- ious non-native species worldwide, but especially in North America (McCrimmon, 1968; Moyle, 1984) and in Australia (Koehn, 2004), with localized impacts identified more recently in s”
Climate change and its implications for Australia's freshwater fish (2011, background): “Some aliens will benefit from warmer temperatures, habitat degradation and increased modification of natural flow regimes (Bunn and Arthington 2002; Koehn 2004; Kennard et al. 2005), whereas others will be detrimentally affected by increases in flow ephemerality, disturbance and the surpassing of…”
Recruitment and abundance of an invasive fish, the common carp, is driven by its propensity to invade and reproduce in basins that experience winter-time hypoxia in interconnected lakes (2009, background): “…of the abundance of common carp has not been systematically studied, reports of especially high, damaging densities appear restricted to Midwestern North America and south-central Australia where densities of up to 1,000 kg/ha are have been described (Neess et al. 1957; Panek 1987; Koehn 2004).”
