Plant invasion across space and time: factors affecting nonindigenous species success during four stages of invasion.
TL;DR: Invasive non-indigenous plant species (NIPS) threaten native diversity, alter ecosystem processes, and may interact with other components of global environmental change as discussed by the authors, and it is suggested that both research and management programs may benefit from employing multiscale and stage approaches to studying and controlling invasion.
factors affecting nonindigenous species success during four stages of invasion
TL;DR: A general framework is outlined that attempts to connect patterns of plant invasion to processes underlying these patterns at four well-established spatio-temporal stages of the invasion process: transport, colonization, establishment, and landscape spread.
