------------------------------------

When talking about dispersion we refer to the change in a species´ range or distribution area.

When a species move and establish in a new area out of their original distribution range, they might be considered exotic or invasive, according to their

  • reproductive rate,
  • population growth, and
  • interaction with native species.

The introduction of invasive species has ecological, economic, socio-cultural consequences. Once an invasive species has been established, it overgrows. In the new areas, these species have less environmental pressure and better conditions than in their origin area -fewer predators, more resources, better nitches-, and these factors favor their establishment. They interact with native species by competing for resources such -water, place, radiation, exposure, shelter, food, etcetera-. They provoke significant damages in the structure of native ecosystems, causing severe damage in endemic species. They produce ecological imbalances in the trophic chains and the dynamics of communities. Invasive species are uncontrollable.

As they expand, they can also affect human in an economical manner and has socio-cultural effects. Many invasive species might cause crops loss by eating cultures. They attack farm animals. They affect buildings and other structures or ships by eating wood. They might even attack humans and cause health problems.
