Book Control of Invasive Species

Download or read book Control of Invasive Species written by Marie Venner and published by Transportation Research Board. This book was released on 2006 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Synthesis 363: Control of Invasive Species explores the extent to which state departments of transportation are identifying actions that affect the spread of invasive species, preventing introduction, tracking status and locations of "invasives" in a timely and ongoing manner, controlling found populations, restoring invaded habitats, conducting research, and sharing lessons learned. The report documents successful practices and lessons learned. It also synthesizes the state of the practice in developing Integrated (Roadside) Vegetation Management, along with physical, chemical, biological, and cultural control mechanisms.

Book Invasive Plant Management in Wrangell St  Elias National Park   Preserve

Download or read book Invasive Plant Management in Wrangell St Elias National Park Preserve written by Annmarie Lain and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2013-09-04 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the work performed by the Alaska Exotic Plant Management Team in Wrangell-St. Elias National Park and Preserve during the 2011 season. Two Alaska Exotic Plant Management Team staff members were stationed at Park Headquarters in Copper Center while working at various locations within the park and preserve. Invasive plant inventories and treatments occurred around the following locations: along the McCarthy and Nabesna roads, Kennecott Mines National Historic Landmark, park owned operations facilities, and several backcountry destinations within park lands. Invasive plant infestations were mapped using Trimble GeoXT units. Manual treatments were performed with the help of volunteers, a Southeast Alaska Guidance Association crew, Youth Conservation Corps interns, one Student Conservation Association intern, and seasonal National Park Service employees. Data was edited and analyzed using GPS Pathfinder Office and ArcGIS 10.

This book was released on 2013-01 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the work performed by the Alaska Exotic Plant Management Team in Wrangell-St. Elias National Park and Preserve during the 2012 season. Three Alaska Exotic Plant Management Team members were stationed at Park Headquarters in Copper Center while working at various locations within the park and preserve. Invasive plant inventories and treatments occurred around the following locations: along the Nabesna road, Kennecott Mines National Historic Landmark, park-owned operations facilities, and several backcountry destinations within park lands. Invasive plant infestations were mapped using Trimble GeoXT units. Manual treatments were performed with the help of volunteers. Data was edited and analyzed using GPS Pathfinder Office and ArcGIS 10. A total of 2,581 pounds of pulled weeds were bagged and then taken to an incinerator in Anchorage to be burned. Gross acres treated increased to 10.8 acres in 2012 from 8 acres in 2011.

Book Meeting the Challenge

Book excerpt: During September 19-20, 2006, a conference was held at the University of Washington Botanic Gardens, Seattle, WA, with the title S2Meeting the challenge: invasive plants in Pacific Northwest Ecosystems. S3 The mission of the conference was to create strategies and partnerships to understand and manage invasions of non-native plants in the Pacific Northwest. The audience included over 180 professionals, students, and citizens from public and private organizations responsible for monitoring, studying, or managing non-native invasive plants. This proceedings includes twenty-seven papers based on oral presentations at the conference plus a synthesis paper that summarizes workshop themes, discussions, and related information. Topics include early detection and rapid response; control techniques, biology, and impacts; management approaches; distribution and mapping of invasive plants; and partnerships, education, and outreach.

Book Invasive Plants and Forest Ecosystems

Download or read book Invasive Plants and Forest Ecosystems written by Ravinder Kumar Kohli and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2008-09-09 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the worldwide human population explodes and trade becomes increasingly globalized, the transboundary movement of plant species from their place of origin to foreign regions is escalating and expected to experience continued growth in the coming decades. Invasive non-native species pose one of the greatest challenges for natural resource managers who are charged with the maintenance of biological diversity and the sustainable production of forest resources. With international contributors presenting an informed and integrated approach to the control of havoc-wrecking species, Invasive Plants and Forest Ecosystems provides the most updated information on invading plants, their impacts on forest ecosystems, and control strategies. This text addresses such important issues as the socioeconomic and policy aspects of plant invasion and offers complete coverage of their ecological impacts and the varied levels of threats in diverse situations.

The book targets key processes that can be managed, the impact of invasive plants on these ecosystem processes and illustrates how adopting ecologically based principles can influence the ecosystem and lead to effective land management. It is suitable for researchers, practitioners and students of ecology, invasive spe.
