PREDATOR FUNCTIONAL RESPONSES: DISCRIMINATING BETWEEN HANDLING AND DIGESTING PREY
- J. Jeschke, M. Kopp, R. Tollrian
- Mathematics, Environmental Science
- 1 February 2002
A handy mechanistic functional response model that realistically incorporates handling and digesting prey and may improve optimal foraging theory, since one of its major problems has been the lack of alternative models.
A Unified Classification of Alien Species Based on the Magnitude of their Environmental Impacts

- 1 May 2014
We present a method for categorising and comparing alien or invasive species in terms of how damaging they are to the environment, that can be applied across all taxa, scales, and impact metrics.
Consumer‐food systems: why type I functional responses are exclusive to filter feeders
- J. Jeschke, M. Kopp, R. Tollrian
- BusinessBiological Reviews of The Cambridge Philosophical…
- 1 May 2004
It is shown that type I responses are not only exceptionally frequent among filter feeders but that they have only been reported from these consumers.
Are invaders different? A conceptual framework of comparative approaches for assessing determinants of invasiveness.

- Environmental ScienceEcology Letters
- 1 August 2010
A framework of the various comparisons that can be used to test for determinants of invasiveness, and the specific questions each comparison can address are presented, and how different comparisons complement each other, and therefore should be used in concert.
No saturation in the accumulation of alien species worldwide

It is shown that the annual rate of first records worldwide has increased during the last 200 years, with 37% of all first records reported most recently (1970–2014), highlighting that past efforts to mitigate invasions have not been effective enough to keep up with increasing globalization.
Usefulness of Bioclimatic Models for Studying Climate Change and Invasive Species
- J. Jeschke, D. Strayer
- Environmental ScienceAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences
- 1 June 2008
Their ability to forecast the effects of climate change or the spread of invaders has rarely been tested adequately, however, and researchers are urged to tie the evaluation of bioclimatic models more closely to their intended uses.
Determinants of vertebrate invasion success in Europe and North America
- J. Jeschke, D. Strayer
- Environmental Science
- 1 September 2006
Species that are frequently introduced to an exotic range have a high potential of becoming invasive. Besides propagule pressure, however, no other generally strong determinant of invasion success is…
Invasion success of vertebrates in Europe and North America.

- 17 May 2005
Investigating all three steps of the invasion process for all freshwater fish, mammals, and birds native to Europe or North America finds a success of approximately 50% at each step, showing that, once a vertebrate is introduced, it has a high potential to become invasive.
Invasive species in Europe: ecology, status, and policy
- R. Keller, J. Geist, J. Jeschke, I. Kühn
- Environmental Science
- 20 June 2011
The impacts of invasive species in Europe are described, the difficulties involved in reducing these impacts, and the policy options currently being considered, and some rules of thumb for designing and implementing management programs are suggested.
