Invasion impacts and dynamics of a European-wide introduced species
Haubrock, Phillip J.; Ahmed, Danish A.; Cuthbert, Ross N.; Stubbington, Rachel; Domisch, Sami; Marquez, Jaime R. G.; Beidas, Ayah; Amatulli, GiuseppeGlobalization has led to the introduction of thousands of alien species worldwide.

Theoretically, invasion dynamics have been assumed to follow an "invasion curve" (S-shaped curve of available area invaded over time), but this dynamic has lacked empiric...
Global economic costs of herpetofauna invasions
