Optimal control of spatial-dynamic processes: The case of biological invasions [PDF]
This study examines the spatial nature of optimal bioinvasion control. We develop and parameterize a spatially explicit two-dimensional model of species spread that allows for differential control across space and time, and we solve for optimal control ...

BIOLOGICAL INVASIONS IN NATURAL-TECHNICAL SYSTEMS
RUDN Journal of Ecology and Life Safety, 2015 It is shown that currently technogenesis of environment is the main cause of increase in the number of biological invasions. To refer to these phenomena the term “technogenic invasion” is suggested.
