Non‐native species have multiple abundance–impact curves [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 The abundance–impact curve is helpful for understanding and managing the impacts of non‐native species. Abundance–impact curves can have a wide range of shapes (e.g., linear, threshold, sigmoid), each with its own implications for scientific ...

Defining the impact of non-native species. [PDF]
Conserv Biol, 2014 Non-native species cause changes in the ecosystems to which they are introduced. These changes, or some of them, are usually termed impacts; they can be manifold and potentially damaging to ecosystems and biodiversity.

Non-native Species Surrounding Protected Areas Influence the Community of Non-native Species Within Them [PDF]
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Protected areas (PAs) are a key element of global conservation strategies aiming to protect habitats and species from various threats such as non-natives species (NNS) with negative ecological impacts.

Who is reporting non‐native species and how? A cross‐expert assessment of practices and drivers of non‐native biodiversity reporting in species regional listing [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Each year, hundreds of scientific works with species' geographical data are published. However, these data can be challenging to identify, collect, and integrate into analytical workflows due to differences in reporting structures, storage formats, and ...

Native fruit traits may mediate dispersal competition between native and non-native plants [PDF]
NeoBiota, 2012 Seed disperser preferences may mediate the impact of invasive, non-native plant species on their new ecological communities. Significant seed disperser preference for invasives over native species could facilitate the spread of the invasives while ...

An Anthropogenic Habitat Facilitates the Establishment of Non-Native Birds by Providing Underexploited Resources. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Anthropogenic modification of habitats may reduce the resources available for native species, leading to population declines and extinction. These same habitats often have the highest richness of non-native species.

Duck productivity in restored species-rich native and species-poor non-native plantings. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Conservation efforts to increase duck production have led the United States Fish and Wildlife Service to restore grasslands with multi-species (3-5) mixtures of introduced cool season vegetation often termed dense nesting cover (DNC).

The Role of Tourism and Recreation in the Spread of Non-Native Species: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2015 Managing the pathways by which non-native species are introduced and spread is considered the most effective way of preventing species invasions. Tourism and outdoor recreation involve the frequent congregation of people, vehicles and vessels from ...
