Invasiones biológicas y dimensiones humanas: Aún necesitamos trabajar duro en nuestras perspectivas sociales [PDF]
, 2022 In this article, we analyze and challenge a long-held paradigm that reduces the field of biological invasions to its ecological components. We explore thirteen case studies grouped within three major human dimensions (values, traditions, and quality of ...
