Limited evidence for phenological differences between non-native and native species

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Although many species shift their phenology with climate change, species vary significantly in the direction and magnitude of these responses (i.e., phenological sensitivity).

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).

Replacement of native by non-native animal communities assisted by human introduction and management on Isla Victoria, Nahuel Huapi National Park [PDF]

PeerJ, 2015
One of the possible consequences of biological invasions is the decrease of native species abundances or their replacement by non-native species. In Andean Patagonia, southern Argentina and Chile, many non-native animals have been introduced and are ...

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.

Different range shifts and determinations of elevational redistributions of native and non-native plant species in Jinfo Mountain of subtropical China

Ecological Indicators, 2022
Species are changing their elevational distributions in response to climate change, leading to biodiversity loss and changes in community structure. Yet whether native and non-native species have consistent elevational shifts remains to be evaluated ...

Niche width analyses facilitate identification of high-risk endemic species at high altitudes in western Himalayas

Ecological Indicators, 2021
High-elevation mountain communities are progressively threatened by habitat fragmentation and climate change resulting in habitat shift and biodiversity loss.

Low Pollinator Sharing Between Coexisting Native and Non-native Plant Pairs: The Effect of Corolla Length and Flower Abundance

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Understanding the mechanisms by which non-native plants can attract pollinators in their new geographical zones is important because such species infiltrate native communities and can disrupt native ecological interactions.

Contemporary Remotely Sensed Data Products Refine Invasive Plants Risk Mapping in Data Poor Regions

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Invasive weeds are a serious problem worldwide, threatening biodiversity and damaging economies. Modeling potential distributions of invasive weeds can prioritize locations for monitoring and control efforts, increasing management efficiency.
