The data used to characterize invasive species risk come from the global cumulative impacts assessment on habitats and are available on the [NCEAS online data repository](https://knb.ecoinformatics.org/view/doi:10.5063/F1S180FS).
Cargo volume was used as a proxy of invasion risk under the assumption that risk of invasion is proportional to tonnes of goods transferred through ports. Cargo throughput in metric tonnes for the year 2011 was accessed through a variety of sources and cross-matched with entries in the World Port Index database (WPI).

Les données utilisées pour caractériser le risque lié aux espèces envahissantes proviennent de l'évaluation globale des impacts cumulatifs sur les habitats et sont disponibles sur le [dépôt de données en ligne du NCEAS](https://knb.ecoinformatics.org/view/doi:10.5063/F1S180FS).
Le volume de marchandises a été utilisé comme indicateur du risque d'invasion en supposant que ce dernier est proportionnel aux tonnes de marchandises transférées par les ports. Le débit de fret en tonnes métriques pour l'année 2011 a été consulté via diverses sources et comparé aux entrées de la base de données *World Port Index* (WPI).
