Introduced Species in Marine Waters
- "Introduced species are a growing and imminent threat to living marine resources in the United States. Hundreds of species arrive in U.S. waters from overseas each day, playing a game of ecological roulette with ecosystem and economic stability" (Excerpt from "Introduced Species in U.S. Coastal Waters," prepared for the Pew Oceans Commission by James T. Carlton, 2001, pg. ii)
