Genomics reveals two distinct invasive lineages of Pereskia aculeata Miller in Australia: Implications for biological control

Biological Control
Understanding the invasion history of weeds can assist practitioners in making informed decisions about weed management. This information often plays a vital role in the selection of potential biological control (biocontrol) agents from the native range ...

Patterns of red tree vole distribution and habitat suitability: implications for surveys and conservation planning

Ecosphere, 2016
Environmental regulations often require wildlife surveys prior to habitat disturbance to avoid impacts or as the basis for planning mitigation, yet project‐level surveys may not provide the insights needed to guide long‐term management. Management of the

Regeneration in gap models: priority issues for studying forest responses to climate change [PDF]

, 2001
Recruitment algorithms in forest gap models are examined with particular regard to their suitability for simulating forest ecosystem responses to a changing climate. The traditional formulation of recruitment is found limiting in three areas.
