A network perspective on species invasion and colonization

Anna Eklöf Theoretical Biology, IFM, Linköping University, Sweden Species are at an increasing rate colonizing novel regions around the world –as results from well-planned anthropogenic actions, accidental anthropogenic actions or by environmentally forces such as climate change. However, the ecological issues and consequences of a species taken from its natural habitat to a new one…
