Plastic as a vector of dispersion for marine species with invasive potential. A review
Plastic debris constitutes up to 87% of marine litter and represents one of the most frequently
studied vectors for marine alien species with invasive potential in the last 15 years. This …

Historical baselines in marine bioinvasions: Implications for policy and management
The human-mediated introduction of marine non-indigenous species is a centuries-if not
millennia-old phenomenon, but was only recently acknowledged as a potent driver of …

Trends in the detection of aquatic non‐indigenous species across global marine, estuarine and freshwater ecosystems: A 50‐year perspective
Aim The introduction of aquatic non‐indigenous species (ANS) has become a major driver
for global changes in species biogeography. We examined spatial patterns and temporal …

Invasion syndromes: a systematic approach for predicting biological invasions and facilitating effective management
Our ability to predict invasions has been hindered by the seemingly idiosyncratic context-
dependency of individual invasions. However, we argue that robust and useful …
