Annual monitoring reveals rapid upward movement of exotic plants in a montane ecosystem

2015-12-01

Abstract excerpt

There is increasing evidence that invasive species are threating montane ecosystems globally. However, trends in species distribution are difficult to observe directly due to a lack of data with suitable spatio-temporal resolution. Here, we aimed to detect spatio-temporal trends in exotic plants in a montane ecosystem, and to determine which drivers had a role affecting these trends. Each year, for a period of 7 y...
