Drivers of freshwater fishes invasions

Abstract

I am a PhD student working on freshwater fish invasions and their drivers. I am supervised by Boris Leroy (Borea, Paris), Céline Bellard (Biom, Orsay), and Franck Courchamp (Biom, Orsay).

The main goal of my PhD project is to understand the factors impacting the invasion success of freshwater fishes at a global scale, identifying the invasive species characteristics and the invaded region characteristics. The long-term goal of my PhD is to build future scenarios of invasion gathering all the factors we have identified. I also have sub-projects: I study the consequences of invasions wondering what is the profile of species threatened by invasive ones, and what is the economic cost of invasive species.
