Synopsis
Over the past century, the number of species that have been transported to areas outside their native range has increased steadily. New pests and pathogens place biological pressure on valuable resident species, threaten human health and lower agricultural production, but strict bans on pathways that might bring invasive alien species can conflict with trade and travel needs. Pest risk maps are frequently used to inform strategic and tactical decisions for the management of invasive alien species. Using worked examples to explain modelling and aid development of tool kits for assessment, this book emphasizes the specific steps and data requirements to guide users through the creation of pest risk models and maps. Organized around the phases that are common to all biological invasions - arrival, establishment spread and impact - each chapter describes the assumptions behind each model addresses pertinent theory and illustrates the key concepts. Suitable for researchers and students of invasive species, land managers, regulatory officials and those developing pest risk maps, this book and accompanying online support materials make the process of producing pest risk maps much clearer. Book jacket., Invasive pests and pathogens place biological pressure on valuable resident species, but strict bans may conflict with trading and travel needs. An overview of how the conflict can be managed using pest risk mapping and modelling, this book uses worked examples to explain modelling and help development of tool kits for assessment., Over the past century, the number of species that have been transported to areas outside their native range has increased steadily.
