Invasion by Cedrela odorata threatens long distance migration of Galapagos tortoises. [PDF]
Maintaining long‐distance elevational migration in the face of environmental change is important to ensure both the reproductive success and keystone ecological role of giant tortoises on Santa Cruz Island, Galapagos. Here, we show that rapid range expansion by Cedrela odorata, an invasive tree, threatens the last migration corridors of western Santa ...

Challenges for the management of the invasive blackberry (Rubus niveus) in the restoration of the Scalesia forest in the Galapagos Islands [PDF]
AbstractStrong competitive ability of introduced plant species has been frequently stated as a key factor promoting successful invasion. The dynamics of invasive species may depend on their abilities to compete for resources and exploit disturbances relative to native species. This study compares the growth performance of the invasive blackberry (Rubus

Long‐term trajectories of non‐native vegetation on islands globally
Trajectories of non‐native vegetation started to rise within the past 1000 years globally. These trajectories differ between islands and partly depend on individual human settlement histories. Abstract Human‐mediated changes in island vegetation are, among others, largely caused by the introduction and establishment of non‐native species. However, data
