Sustainable Management of Invasive Species

About Sustainable Management of Invasive Species

"This comprehensive and innovative work addresses the intersection of invasive species management and climate resilience. Researchers have claimed that invasive species are the dominant biological threat to the functioning of our planet; whilst arguably true, humans are now concurrently affecting climate resilience. Bringing together experts from around the world, this book provides a nuanced evaluation of the management issues of invasive species driven by net benefits and threats, acknowledging that such species may also offer solutions towards addressing climate change mitigation and adaptation. Sustainable Management of Invasive Species provides valuable insights into this area but also pushes assessments of management into a much-needed, realistic framework of ongoing environmental change. Chapters address the importance of governance and emerging technologies for monitoring and assessment, and in particular the need for management to address the full spectrum of local to essentially global issues, requiring international effort and coordination. The case studies presented encompass microbial, plant, and animal invasions across diverse aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems and provide and examples of applications and opportunities for invasive species to participate in ecological and economic sustainability efforts"--
