Impact: Toward a Framework for Understanding the Ecological Effects of Invaders
Ingrid M. Parker,Daniel Simberloff,Karen Goodell,Marjorie J. Wonham,B. Von Holle,L. Goldwasser +5 more
TL;DR: This paper argues that the total impact of an invader includes three fundamental dimensions: range, abundance, and the per-capita or per-biomass effect of the invader, and recommends previous approaches to measuring impact at different organizational levels, and suggests some new approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI
Invasion of Coastal Marine Communities in North America: Apparent Patterns, Processes, and Biases
TL;DR: Overall, the emergent patterns reflect interactive effects of propagule supply, invasion resistance, and sampling bias, and the relative contribution of each component re...
Journal ArticleDOI
An epidemiological model for West Nile virus: invasion analysis and control applications.
TL;DR: A single–season susceptible–infectious–removed (SIR) model of WN cross–infection between birds and mosquitoes is developed, incorporating specific features unique to WN ecology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fish and ships: relating dispersal frequency to success in biological invasions
TL;DR: A comparison of two ballast sampling methods suggests that fishes have been undersampled in ballast-water studies, including the authors' own, and that the role of ballast transport in promoting fish invasions has been underestimated.
Journal ArticleDOI
TROUBLE ON OILED WATERS: Lessons from the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill
Robert T. Paine,Jennifer L. Ruesink,Adrian Sun,Elaine L. Soulanille,Marjorie J. Wonham,Christopher D. G. Harley,and Daniel R. Brumbaugh,D. Secord +7 more
TL;DR: Post-spill research is reviewed and set in its legal context and it is recommended that future studies address spatial patterns in the intertidal, and focus on the abundances of long-lived species and on organisms that preserve a chronological record of growth.
