How Do Species on the Move Impact the Ecology of Their New Home?

The movement of an organism can be driven by a multitude of processes with myriad potential consequences. Join researchers for a discussion about the ways that climate change is influencing the movement of organisms (from microbes to larger organisms), which, in-turn, can alter species-to-species and species-to-environment interactions with potential consequences for animal and ecosystem health in the organisms’ new home.
