Brazil naturalizes non-native species

Science, 2018
Brazil's national policies are putting the country's megadiversity at risk ([ 1 ][1]–[ 3 ][2]). After passing a 2016 law that will put constraints on biodiversity research ([ 3 ][2]), the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Supply has taken another controversial action: A new ...

Invasive non-native species

2022
Research suggests that the threat from invasive non-native species (INNS) is growing. Biological invasions by INNS harm native species and habitats and can have economic impacts. Biosecurity measures can be adopted to prevent the introduction and spread of INNS.

Defining the Impact of Non-Native Species: Impact of Non-Native Species

2014
(Uploaded by Plazi for the IPBES Invasive Alien Species Assessment) 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.

Maintaining Antarctica’s isolation from non-native species

Trends in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Antarctica's isolation has been breached by various non-native species, including microbes, a grass, and some invertebrates. As yet, no marine species have reportedly established populations. With increasing effects of climate change and human activity, continued concerted action is needed to keep Antarctica protected from the impacts of non-native ...

Worldwide effects of non‐native species on species–area relationships

Conservation Biology, 2020
Abstract Non‐native species have invaded most parts of the world, and the invasion process is expected to continue and accelerate. Because many invading non‐native species are likely to become permanent inhabitants, future consideration of species‐area relationships (SARs) should account for non‐native species ...

Non-native Species Management

2017
This chapter looks at the management of non-native species. It starts by explaining the human practice of moving non-native species in terms of temporal scale and spatial scale. The chapter highlights the importance of non-native species in applied ecology.

GB Non-native Species Information Portal: documenting the arrival of non-native species in Britain

Biological Invasions, 2014
Information on non-native species (NNS) is often scattered among a multitude of sources, such as regional and national databases, peer-reviewed and grey literature, unpublished research projects, institutional datasets and with taxonomic experts. Here we report on the development of a database designed for the collation of information in Britain.

Valuing the contributions of non-native species to people and nature

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2022
While decision-making can benefit from considering positive and negative outcomes of change, over the past half-century, research on non-native species has focused predominately on their negative impacts. Here we provide a framework for considering the positive consequences of non-native species relative to relational, instrumental, and intrinsic ...
