Human activities, propagule pressure and alien plants in the sub-Antarctic: Tests of generalities and evidence in support of management

2013-05-01

Abstract excerpt

Despite concerns about the richness of plant invaders on islands, and their likely effects on local systems, impacts of these species seem to be small. However, this may be due to an absence of information on impacts, including changing species occupancy and forecast occupancy, rather than lack of impact per se. Here we use the plant invaders on the sub-Antarctic Prince Edward Islands (PEIs) and spatially explicit...
