Alien species in a warmer world: risks and opportunities
Gian-Reto Walther,Alain Roques,Philip E. Hulme,Martin T. Sykes,Petr Pyšek,Petr Pyšek,Ingolf Kühn,Martin Zobel,Sven Bacher,Zoltán Botta-Dukát,Harald Bugmann,Bálint Czúcz,Jens Dauber,Thomas Hickler,Vojtěch Jarošík,Vojtěch Jarošík,Marc Kenis,Stefan Klotz,Dan Minchin,Mari Moora,Wolfgang Nentwig,Jürgen Ott,Vadim E. Panov,Björn Reineking,Christelle Robinet,V. P. Semenchenko,Wojciech Solarz,Wilfried Thuiller,Montserrat Vilà,Katrin Vohland,Josef Settele +30 more
TL;DR: It is emphasised that global warming has enabled alien species to expand into regions in which they previously could not survive and reproduce and management practices regarding the occurrence of 'new' species could range from complete eradication to tolerance.
Journal ArticleDOI
How well do we understand the impacts of alien species on ecosystem services? A pan-European, cross-taxa assessment
Montserrat Vilà,Corina Basnou,Petr Pyšek,Melanie Josefsson,Piero Genovesi,Stephan Gollasch,Wolfgang Nentwig,Sergej Olenin,Alain Roques,David B. Roy,Phillip E. Hulme +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of the financial costs of alien species in Europe, as the first step toward calculating an estimate of the economic consequences of extraterrestrial species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Grasping at the routes of biological invasions: a framework for integrating pathways into policy
Philip E. Hulme,Sven Bacher,Marc Kenis,Stefan Klotz,Ingolf Kühn,Dan Minchin,Wolfgang Nentwig,Sergej Olenin,Vadim E. Panov,Jan Pergl,Petr Pyšek,Petr Pyšek,Alain Roques,Daniel Sol,Wojciech Solarz,Montserrat Vilà +15 more
TL;DR: A framework is proposed to facilitate the comparative analysis of invasion pathways by a wide range of taxa in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems and helps identify existing gaps in current knowledge of pathways and highlight the limitations of existing legislation to manage introductions of alien species.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Unified Classification of Alien Species Based on the Magnitude of their Environmental Impacts
Tim M. Blackburn,Franz Essl,Thomas Evans,Philip E. Hulme,Jonathan M. Jeschke,Ingolf Kühn,Sabrina Kumschick,Zuzana Marková,Agata Mrugała,Wolfgang Nentwig,Jan Pergl,Petr Pyšek,Wolfgang Rabitsch,Anthony Ricciardi,David M. Richardson,Agnieszka Sendek,Montserrat Vilà,John R. U. Wilson,Marten Winter,Piero Genovesi,Sven Bacher +20 more
TL;DR: A method for categorising and comparing alien or invasive species in terms of how damaging they are to the environment, that can be applied across all taxa, scales, and impact metrics is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Disentangling the role of environmental and human pressures on biological invasions across Europe
Petr Pyšek,Vojtech Jarosik,Philip E. Hulme,Ingolf Kühn,Jan Wild,Margarita Arianoutsou,Sven Bacher,François Chiron,Viktoras Didziulis,Franz Essl,Piero Genovesi,Francesca Gherardi,Martin Hejda,Salit Kark,Philip W. Lambdon,Marie-Laure Desprez-Loustau,Wolfgang Nentwig,Jan Pergl,Katja Poboljsaj,Wolfgang Rabitsch,Alain Roques,David B. Roy,Susan M. Shirley,Wojciech Solarz,Montserrat Vilà,Marten Winter +25 more
TL;DR: The strong influence of economic and demographic variables on the levels of invasion by alien species demonstrates that future solutions to the problem of biological invasions at a national scale lie in mitigating the negative environmental consequences of human activities that generate wealth and by promoting more sustainable population growth.
