Prediction of Current and Future Suitable Habitats for Three Invasive Freshwater Fish Species in Europe

Climate change can have a significant impact on the Earth’s ecosystems. Invasive species will respond to climate change, and their responses ecological economic implications. Habitat suitability models (HSMs) are some of most important tools currently available for assessing potential impacts species. The projections model suitable conditions three invasive fish in Europe, Lepomis gibbosus, Perccottus glenii Pseudorasbora parva, built using Maxent based occurrence throughout range (native invasive), current Europe forecast data 2050s 2070s SSP2 SSP5 scenarios presented herein. For gibbosus lead expansion zones, with north east, while existing ranges be moderate. glenii, zone shift northward, gradual deterioration southern central parts its an improvement northern part. Thus, at present until 2070s, parva considered potentially dangerous as such only part Europe.
