The First Twenty Years of Invasion Biology in the Baltic Sea Area
Year: 2005
Type: article
Abstract: The history of research into nonindigenous species and invasion biology in the Baltic Sea is briefly reviewed from faunistic notes made by the early naturalists of the early 1800s to more sophisticated and diversified studies that began in the last decade of the 20 th century. In the 1990s, biologists working in the Baltic Sea area increasingly contributed to the understanding of the role of alien species as part of anthropogenically induced change in both a regional and international context.
