Description: April's ARNIE Talk features two speakers - Nancy O'Connor and Chris Brigham. This talk will investigate why biological invasions have occurred with increasing frequency in the marine environment and why these species are so successful in their new environment? This talk will provide results from the speakers' research, which answers these questions. It will also explain why we should care about marine bioinvasions, the spread of the Asian shore crab over time, and the ecological role it may play in its new ecosystem.
