Combining ballast water exchange and treatment to maximize prevention of species introductions to freshwater ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The most effective way to manage species transfers is to prevent their introduction via vector regulation. Soon, international ships will be required to meet numeric ballast discharge standards using ballast water treatment (BWT) systems, and ballast ...

A suitable approach to resource allocation in biosecurity when considering dependent benefits and costs

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Optimal allocation of resources to the management of biosecurity risk, threatened species conservation or natural hazards such as bushfires is imperative—because program budgets are usually finite and, therefore, constrained. However, effectively dividing resources among management activities to achieve the greatest benefit remains a ...

An integrated approach to balance freshwater connectivity restoration and invasion risk

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Habitat fragmentation negatively affects many native migratory fish populations. However, this fragmentation can also prevent the spread and establishment of invasive species. We modified the dendritic connectivity index (DCI), a commonly used freshwater connectivity metric, to account for multiple invasive dispersal pathways in estimates of ...

Free living and plankton-associated vibrios: assessment in ballast water, harbor areas and coastal ecosystems in Brazil

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2013
Ballast water is a major transport vector of exotic aquatic species and pathogenic microorganisms. The wide-ranging spread of toxigenic Vibrio cholerae O1 from harbor areas has been frequently ascribed to discharge of contaminated ballast water into ...
