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, 2014Information 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scattered among a multitude of sources, such as regional and national databases, peer-reviewed and grey literature, unpublished research projects, institutional datasets and with taxonomic experts.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, 2022While 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 ...

Maintaining Antarctica’s isolation from non-native species
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2022Antarctica'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 ...

Non-native species boost biodiversity
New Scientist, 2017Erick Lundgren of Arizona State University and his colleagues have studied the ranges of 76 species of large plant-eating mammals. They found 22 with significant populations outside their native range. Ten of those are extinct or threatened back home. For instance, there are an estimated 5 million wild donkeys around the world, but only a few hundred ...

Non-native species risks to the Arctic
2014No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author. The ICES Working Groups on Ballast and Other Shipping Vectors (WGBOSV) and Introduction and Transfers of Marine Organisms (WGITMO) have identified non-native species issues in the Arctic as an emerging priority.

The introduction of non-native species to Antarctica
2014Antarctica's biodiversity and its intrinsic values are at risk from the introduction of non-native species, predominantly facilitated by human activity. Non-native species, or species that live outside of their natural range, can spread inter-regionally (from outside the Antarctic and its associated and dependent ecosystems) or intra-regionally (within

Deforestation and the spread of non-native species
2013Over ninety percent of Madagascar’s original forests have been deforested, and the population of Madagascar has doubled in the past forty years, further exacerbating problems of local, unsustainable forest use. While research on Madagascar's endemic species is common, less information is known about its non-native species and the increasing effects ...
