Journal ArticleDOI
Invasive species triggers a massive loss of ecosystem services through a trophic cascade.
TL;DR: The economic damages of the degradation of an important ecosystem service, water clarity, caused by invasion by the spiny water flea are quantified and it is found that the costs are comparable with the willingness to pay for the service itself: US$140 million.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Invasion Ecology of Sleeper Populations: Prevalence, Persistence, and Abrupt Shifts
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the concept and implications of nonnative sleeper populations in invasion dynamics and identify mechanisms that can trigger their irruption, and the implications for invasive species risk assessment and management.
Journal ArticleDOI
Outbreak of an undetected invasive species triggered by a climate anomaly
TL;DR: The results suggest that Bythotrephes persisted for at least a decade below the detection limit, until optimal thermal conditions triggered a population outbreak, which highlights the potential for environmental conditions to trigger invasive species outbreaks from low-density populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Invasive invertebrate predator, Bythotrephes longimanus, reverses trophic cascade in a north-temperate lake
TL;DR: It is argued that the trophic cascade of 1987–1988 created an environment of high food resources and low fish planktivory that promoted the proliferation of Bythotrephes as it functionally replaced cisco in Lake Mendota's food web.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Magee et al. as mentioned in this paper synthesize adaptation strategies that could offset climate impacts on Midwestern lakes based on results from the Wisconsin Initiative on Climate Change Impacts lake adaptation workshop, in which 48 researchers and managers with expertise on Wisconsin's inland lakes gathered to provide input on climate adaptation strategies.
