Community Ecology
Community ecology explores the complex interactions among diverse organisms inhabiting a shared space and how they shape their environment. This... -
Plant Invasion and Climate Change: A Global Overview
The phenomenon of plant invasion is a consequence of invading plants’ exceptional range expansion into new geographic areas. Even though older... -
Urban ecology of Drosophila suzukii
AbstractUrban environments are vulnerable to the introduction of non-native species and sometimes contribute to their invasion success. Knowing how...

Introduction to Restoration Ecology
Restoration ecology is an interdisciplinary field of research that builds on the concepts and foundations of ecology and makes use of other... -
Does invasion science encompass the invaded range? A comparison of the geographies of invasion science versus management in the U.S.
Biases in invasion science have led to a taxonomic focus on plants, particularly a subset of well-studied plants, and a geographic focus on invasions...
