Where and why alongshore variation in larval transport enables the establishment of introduced species
After introduction, many non-native marine species are dispersed planktonically. Secondary spread within the non-native range has been shown to prevent the establishment of the introduced species if the advection of larvae prevents sufficient return of larvae to maintain the population in the face of competition with native species. However, those studies have largely neglected the effects of…
