Non-native tree regeneration indicates regional and national risks from current invasions
Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2022 Non-native (introduced, exotic, and alien) species alter forest ecosystem processes, cause landscape change, interfere with services provided by native trees, and contribute to biotic homogenization. To quantify the degree of invasion by non-native trees

Compositional attributes of invaded forests drive the diversity of insect functional groups
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2022 Forest canopies are important habitats for animal biodiversity globally. The structural and compositional components of canopies influence biodiversity, and recent advancements in remote sensing have given insight to these relationships.

Seed dispersal and tree legacies influence spatial patterns of plant invasion dynamics
Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2023 Invasive plant species alter community dynamics and ecosystem properties, potentially leading to regime shifts. Here, the invasion of a non-native tree species into a stand of native tree species is simulated using an agent-based model.

Prunus serotina unleashed: invader dominance after 70 years of forest development [PDF]
, 2009 Propagule pressure and disturbance have both been found to facilitate invasion. Therefore, knowledge on the history of introduction and disturbance is vital for understanding an invasion process, and research should focus on areas in which the invasive ...

How well do trees fit the city? Lessons from an urban tree survey in Córdoba, Argentina.
Boletín de la Sociedad Argentina de Botánica, 2023 Background and aim: Urban tree composition is generally highly diverse and largely non-native in origin. Species selection, however, should consider not only future predicted climate and species' environmental requirements, but also the regional ...
