Overlooked and underestimated: reframing restoration to include inconspicuous native invaders
Anthropogenic changes cause some native species to increase in abundance or distribution. These hyperabundant natives, native invaders, follow the same ecological ‘rules’ as exotic invasives and can have comparable impacts. However, their management is a relatively new challenge in restoration ecology, with most frameworks operating within a native ...

These analyses document that only two species are valid (V. costata and V.

The Effect of Climate Change on Emergence and Evolution of Zoonotic Diseases in Asia
ABSTRACT As the climate of Asia changes under the influence of global warming, the incidence and spatial distribution of known zoonoses will evolve, and new zoonoses are expected to emerge as a result of greater exposure to organisms which currently occur only in wildlife.
