Managing Native Invasive Juniper Species Using Firel
Junipers (Juniperus spp.) are native woody shrubs that have expanded beyond their normal historical ranges in the western and southwestern United States since the late 1800s. Most ecologists and resource managers agree that juniper has become a deleterious native invasive plant that threatens other vegetation ecosystems, such as grasslands, through a steady encroachment and ultimate domination....
متن کاملManaging invasive species: Rules of thumb for rapid assessment
Invasive species have been highlighted as a major driver of global environmental change and economic damages, spurring governments worldwide to increase prevention and control investments. Unfortunately, recent research is frequently in a form inaccessible to policy-makers and managers. The complexity of analysis and resulting time requirements can be prohibitive, especially given increasing nu...
متن کاملSpontaneous alternation in marine crabs: invasive versus native species.
Organisms ranging from paramecia to humans tend to explore places that have been least recently explored, which is referred to as spontaneous alternation. Although organisms rely on different sources of information in alternating between places, the emergent behavioral pattern is likely advantageous during exploration and foraging. Under this rationale, continuous spontaneous alternation perfor...
متن کامل‘Caribbean Creep’ Chills Out: Climate Change and Marine Invasive Species
BACKGROUND New marine invasions have been recorded in increasing numbers along the world's coasts due in part to the warming of the oceans and the ability of many invasive marine species to tolerate a broader thermal range than native species. Several marine invertebrate species have invaded the U.S. southern and mid-Atlantic coast from the Caribbean and this poleward range expansion has been t...
متن کاملSpecies distribution modelling of invasive alien species; Pterois miles for current distribution and future suitable habitats
The present study aims to predict the potential geographic distribution and future expansion of invasive alien lionfish (Pterois miles) with ecological niche modelling along the Mediterranean Sea. The primary data consisted of occurrence points of P. miles in the Mediterranean and marine climatic data layers were collected from global databases. All the used models run 100% su...
