Assessing the environmental and dispersal‐related drivers of an invasive aquatic plant in Great Lakes coastal wetlands Invasive plant species pose a major threat to wetland ecosystems. One effective way to control the spread of invasive plants is to intercept them early in the invasion process. Species distribution m...

New study shows that local dispersal, not just habitat suitability, drives the spread of invasive #EuropeanFrogbit in wetlands. Its occurrence is linked to proximity to existing populations, highlighting the need to include spatial processes in SDMs for early-stage invasions.
