Table 1.

Differences between novel interactions originating from globalization compared with climate change.

globalization climate change
climate matching new organisms that fit into a specific climate envelope adaptation to slightly different conditions
host/competitors new changing
movement along trading routes along climatic gradients
coevolution none partial
range expansions latitude and longitudinal latitudinal (towards the poles)
main component pathogen control environmental control
overall risk high–medium medium–low
