Comparing Climate Change and Species Invasions as Drivers of Coldwater Fish Population Extirpations
Species are influenced by multiple environmental stressors acting simultaneously. Our objective was to compare the expected effects of climate change and invasion of non-indigenous rainbow smelt (Osmerus mordax) on cisco (Coregonus artedii) population extirpations at a regional level. We assembled a database of over 13,000 lakes in Wisconsin, USA, summarising fish occurrence, lake morphology, w...
متن کاملImpact of climate change on biological invasions and population distributions
The purpose of this BIRS workshop was to generate, develop and apply new tools for the analysis of invasions and population distributions under environmental change. Thus the mathematical problems that we addressed were intrinsically spatial. Not only do temperatures vary with latitude, the very processes of population spread and shifts in range boundary are modelled using equations with spatia...
متن کاملLinking climate change and biological invasions: Ocean warming facilitates nonindigenous species invasions.
The spread of exotic species and climate change are among the most serious global environmental threats. Each independently causes considerable ecological damage, yet few data are available to assess whether changing climate might facilitate invasions by favoring introduced over native species. Here, we compare our long-term record of weekly sessile marine invertebrate recruitment with interann...
متن کاملLife-history Strategies Predict Fish Invasions and Extirpations in the Colorado River Basin
Understanding the mechanisms by which nonnative species successfully invade new regions and the consequences for native fauna is a pressing ecological issue, and one for which niche theory can play an important role. In this paper, we quantify a comprehensive suite of morphological, behavioral, physiological, trophic, and life-history traits for the entire fish species pool in the Colorado Rive...
متن کاملBiological invasions, climate change and genomics
The rate of biological invasions is expected to increase as the effects of climate change on biological communities become widespread. Climate change enhances habitat disturbance which facilitates the establishment of invasive species, which in turn provides opportunities for hybridization and introgression. These effects influence local biodiversity that can be tracked through genetic and geno...
