Assessing the mechanisms and impacts of shrub invasion in forests: A meta‐analysis

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 60, Issue 11, Page 2314-2326, November 2023., 2023
Taken together, these results suggest that restoration efforts should focus on (i) increasing the presence of strong native competitors or functionally diverse native communities, (ii) decreasing sources of invasive shrub propagules while keeping the canopies closed when invasion occurs via high propagule pressure, (iii) avoiding management techniques ...

Insights from experiences comanaging woody invasive alien plants in Argentina

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 4, Issue 4, October–December 2023., 2023
The complexities of invasive alien species (IAS) management call for a close collaboration among stakeholders to comanage effective solutions. Based on a SWOT analysis, we identified personal motivations as the main force that helps to overcome barriers to to IAS comanagement in Argentina. We recommend the development of spaces to share experiences and

Implications for biological invasion of non‐native plants for sale in the world's largest online market

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 4, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Internet trade is increasingly recognized as a dispersal pathway of non‐native plant species that is difficult to monitor. We sought to identify non‐native flora present in the Chinese online market, the largest e‐commerce market globally, and to decipher the effect of existing trade regulations, among other variables, on e‐trading patterns ...

Applying fault tree analysis to biological invasions identifies optimal targets for effective biosecurity

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 59, Issue 10, Page 2553-2566, October 2022., 2022
While prevention has been long recognised as the most cost‐effective action against biological invasions, here we were able to quantify the reduction in invasion risk under a range of management scenarios. Optimising all management elements included in the FT reduced the overall probability of invasion by three orders of magnitude.

A Preliminary Assessment of Noise‐Related Impacts From the Urban‐Invasive Johnstone's Whistling Frog (Eleutherodactylus johnstonei) 城市入侵物种约翰斯通鸣蛙 (Eleutherodactylus johnstonei) 引起的噪声影响初步评估 Una evaluación preliminar de los impactos relacionados con el ruido de la rana silbadora de Johnstone (Eleutherodactylus johnstonei), especie urbana invasora

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 104-114, March 2026.
The Johnstone's whistling frog is an invasive species whose loud night‐time calls may affect human health and well‐being. Our study in Cali, Colombia, combined fieldwork and online surveys to assess its urban occupancy, density, and potential health impacts.

Above‐ground competition by Nephrolepis brownii inhibits tree seedling recruitment in a tropical restoration experiment

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 8, Page 1968-1979, August 2025.
As Nephrolepis brownii primarily interferes through above‐ground competition, management of above‐ground tissues may mitigate its impact. However, additional research on the efficacy of this management strategy and potential allelopathic traits is needed.

Effects of land cover and protected areas on flying insect diversity

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 4, August 2025.
Abstract Widespread insect losses are a critical global problem. Mitigating this problem requires identifying the principal drivers across different taxa and determining which insects are covered by protected areas. However, doing so is hindered by missing information on most species owing to extremely high insect diversity and difficulties in ...

Classification of direct threats to the conservation of ecosystems and species 4.0

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 3, June 2025.
Abstract Identifying and assessing the magnitude of direct threats to ecosystems and species are critical steps to prioritizing, planning, implementing, and assessing conservation actions. Just as medical clinicians and researchers need a standard way to talk about human diseases, conservation practitioners and scientists need a common and ...

Explaining regulatory change in the European Union: The role of the financial crisis in ratcheting up of risk regulation 解析欧盟的监管变革:金融危机在逐步加强风险监管一事中的作用 Explicando el cambio regulatorio en la Unión Europea: el papel de la crisis financiera en el aumento de la regulación del riesgo

open access: yesRisk, Hazards &Crisis in Public Policy, Volume 16, Issue 1, March 2025.
Abstract The European Union was hit by the financial crisis of 2008. The impact of this crisis, however, and the extent to which this has led to strengthening environmental, health and safety risk regulation in the EU remain open to debate. This article advances the discussion of the “ratcheting‐up” hypothesis by adding a new explanatory factor, namely

Modelling alternative management strategies of invasive tree species at the expansion front: Ligustrum lucidum as a case study

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 6, Issue 1, January–March 2025.
The management of invasive non‐native species is a global challenge, particularly for long‐lived trees. Individual‐based models (IBMs) and expert knowledge are valuable tools for evaluating different strategies to control the population dynamics and range expansion of invasive species.
