The rapidly growing population of lionfish – an invasive species in the United States and Caribbean waters – is stressing the already fragile coral reefs in the Gulf of Mexico and is threatening local commercial and recreational fisheries. One potential strategy of controlling population growth is ...
Monitoring should be conducted in a radius of at least 4 km around the source nest, or wider—depending on how late a nest is found. For ease of application, we also derived equations for finding the minimum bait interval required in an arbitrary ant species for thorough monitoring....

The Economic Value of Controlling an Invasive Shrub Recent interest in the valuation of ecosystem services has provided tools for assessing the costs of invasive species in natural areas. This study evaluate... E Zavaleta - 《Ambio A Journal of the Human Environment》 被引量: 1320发表: 2000年...
Invasive mammalian predators commonly coexist with invasive mammalian herbivore prey. Managers often advocate controlling invasive prey in the belief that this will also reduce invasive predator abundance. Such an outcome would have desirable ecological and financial benefits, but there have been few tests...
Invasive alien species require co-ordinated strategic management if negative impacts are to be effectively avoided. Here we describe a strategy for the management of Parthenium hysterophorus L. (Asteraceae) in South Africa. P. hysterophorus is an annual herb native to tropical America, which has...
Aedes aegypti inhabits the Southeast U.S., and Aedes albopictus, an invasive species, is spread across most of the eastern half of the country, including Indiana. Hill said predictions that warmer temperatures and rainfall brought by El Niño will lead to a surge in mosquito populations could...
Mikania micrantha, nicknamed the "mile-a-minute" weed, is an extremely fast-growing, sprawling, perennial vine belonging to the family Asteraceae and native to tropical America. The vine is listed as one of the 100 worst invasive species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. ...
We use a bang-bang optimal control model to derive a rule of thumb for an optimal management of invasive weeds, in terms of the marginal benefits and costs of various control actions. Instead of determining the size of infestation under an optimal surveillance measure, the rule specifies the ...
