Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Hydrilla verticillata (L.f.) Royle is one of the major invasive weeds in the world and has been found in four lakes in New Zealand. After establishment in those lakes, H. verticillata caused major negative impacts, covering 30% of one lake, outcompeted native species, reduced oxygen levels and light levels. Biosecurity New Zealand has developed a control programme to eliminate this weed from its current locations; this is ongoing. However, this illustrated that New Zealand could be at risk from further incursions of this species. In order to provide useful information for future control and management of H. verticillata, a spatial risk analysis of New Zealand was carried out, using ecological information available from other studies. Two different approaches were used in this study. 1) Bioclimatic modelling based on known locations of H. verticillata. 2) A spatial model based on known physiological characteristics These two models were also run under different climate scenarios: current climate and future climate change scenarios. The results suggest that there is a strong temperature limitation on the spread of H. verticillata in New Zealand especially in the South Island. Under current climatic conditions, most of lowland North Island and small regions in the South Island are at risk of invasion by H. verticillata. Under future warmer climate conditions, the risk areas could become much wider. These results suggest that long-term and continued surveillance for this species required, and that the surveillance area should be extended"--Abstract.

This book will be of interest to academics and students of ecology, researchers engaged in developing management solutions, scientific managers of natural ecosystems, and policy-makers.
Download or read book Seaweed Invasions written by Craig Johnson and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2008-12-19 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recognising an urgent need to move beyond case studies and develop a conceptual synthesis, the scope of this volume is broad, covering the principal elements of both the invasion process and human responses to seaweed invasions. This includes addressing legal frameworks for regulatory control, practical means to track and respond to invasive seaweeds in the field, as well as the ecology of invasions. The result is both a valuable multidisciplinary synthesis of work to date, and a pointer to future challenges and priorities.

Download or read book Invasive Plant Species of the World 2nd Edition written by Ewald Weber and published by CABI. This book was released on 2017-04-13 with total page 597 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the publication of the first edition of this book in 2003, the status of many important invasive plants around the world has changed dramatically. Species have extended their ranges, new literature has been accumulated, and control methods have been improved. Research on some plant invaders has also focused on the species' ecology and impacts, confirming that invasive plants continue to pose serious threats to species and ecosystems. Given their range expansions and introduction via international trade, these problems will only become more serious in the future. Including colour images of each species, this up-to-date reference guide on the most important plant invaders is an invaluable tool for both researchers and policy makers.

This book was released on 2006-07-04 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human colonization of New Zealand has dramatically altered the resident biota, introduced numerous alien organisms to these once remote islands, and exported local species to the world. This book reviews invasions, investigates what controls the success of invaders and studies the consequences for ecosystems both on land and offshore. The book tests current theories about the success of invaders and evaluates principles for effective management of biological invasions worldwide.

Download or read book Invasive Animals and Plants in Massachusetts Lakes and Rivers written by Wai Hing Wong and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-05-10 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a growing demand for appropriate management of aquatic invasive species in lakes and rivers worldwide. This book covers biology, invasion ecology, sightings, and control techniques of 4 invasive animals and 15 invasive plants in Massachusetts lakes and rivers. It provides valuable information on their biological characteristics and potential expansion pathways, as well as monitoring and management, including alternative management tools using updated biological, chemical, and mechanical methods. The book also includes the regulation of invasive species management to allow resource managers, biologists, practitioners, volunteers, and students a better understanding of compliance and enforcement with environmental law. An example of successful management is highlighted for each invasive species. Invasive Animals and Plants in Massachusetts Lakes and Rivers is the first book to provide comprehensive and systematic coverage and illustrations for both freshwater invasive animals and plants. Although focussing on Massachusetts, it will provide readers with the bigger picture on multiple invasive species, from prevention, early detection, control, ecological restoration, to public education. Natural resource managers in Massachusetts and surrounding states will glean the detailed and valuable information they need to learn and use to prevent and manage freshwater invasive species in the field.
