A mechanistic model for understanding invasions: using the environment as a predictor of population success

Aim We set out to develop a temperature- and salinity-dependent mechanistic population model for copepods that can be used to understand the role of environmental parameters in population growth or decline. Models are an important tool for understanding the dynamics of invasive species; our model ca...
