چکیده
(2008) Fish invasions in the world's river systems: When natural processes are blurred by human activities. PLoS Biol 6(2): e28. The content of the published Dataset S1 was incorrect, due to a procedural error when the file was created. A corrected version of this file is now available. The figures and analysis presented elsewhere in the research article are not affected, as these were created from the master copy of the data rather than the supporting file. The three invasion levels are those used in Figure 1A (i.e., the percentage of non-native species per basin). (i) [ 0%–5%]; (ii) ]5%–25%]; (iii) ]25%–95%]. Longitude and latitude at the river mouth was also provided for the 1,055 river basins. In the legend below Table 1, the reference given at the end of the second sentence is incorrect. The sentence should read: " Annual survival (S) to the lowest listening line in the Fraser River, whole-river survival in the Columbia River (2006), and associated detection efficiencies (p) were calculated using the CJS model and program MARK [28] " This is an open-access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Public Domain declaration, which stipulates that, once placed in the public domain, this work may be freely reproduced, distributed, transmitted, modified, built upon, or otherwise used by anyone for any lawful purpose.

Fish Invasions in the World's River Systems: When Natural Processes Are Blurred by Human Activities
Because species invasions are a principal driver of the human-induced biodiversity crisis, the identification of the major determinants of global invasions is a prerequisite for adopting sound conservation policies. Three major hypotheses, which are not necessarily mutually exclusive, have been proposed to explain the establishment of non-native species: the "human activity" hypothesis, which a...

متن کاملInvasibility of Mediterranean-Climate Rivers by Non-Native Fish: The Importance of Environmental Drivers and Human Pressures
Invasive species are regarded as a biological pressure to natural aquatic communities. Understanding the factors promoting successful invasions is of great conceptual and practical importance. From a practical point of view, it should help to prevent future invasions and to mitigate the effects of recent invaders through early detection and prioritization of management measures. This study aims...

This paper provides information on the geographic distributions of two cyprinid species: Hemiculter leucisculus (Basilewsky, 1855) and Alburnus caeruleus Heckel, 1843, in the world and the entire drainage systems in Iran. The new distribution records were taken from Maroon River (Jarrahi River system) and Chardaval River (Karkheh river system), both in Tigris River basin showing wide and narrow...

Impacts of effluent from fish farming activities on fluvial ecosystems lead to deterioration of water quality and changes in the macroinvertebrates assemblage. In this study, the influence of fish farm effluents on water quality and macroinvertebrates communities of Tajan River was investigated to evaluate the suitability of macroinvertebrates based on biological metrics and indices. Benthic...
