We conducted a comprehensive review of the research literature on interactions between
invasive species and species included in the critically endangered category of the …

Applied ecology has traditionally approached management problems through a simplified,
single-species lens. Repeated failures of single-species management have led us to a new …

Interactions between multiple ecosystem stressors are expected to jeopardize biological
processes, functions and biodiversity. The scientific community has declared stressor …

Although habitat fragmentation is often assumed to be a primary driver of extinction, global
patterns of fragmentation and its relationship to extinction risk have not been consistently …

Ecological communities face a variety of environmental and anthropogenic stressors acting
simultaneously. Stressor impacts can combine additively or can interact, causing synergistic …

Both fire and predators have strong influences on the population dynamics and behaviour of
animals, and the effects of predators may either be strengthened or weakened by fire …

We conducted an analysis of global forest cover to reveal that 70% of remaining forest is
within 1 km of the forest's edge, subject to the degrading effects of fragmentation. A synthesis …

The growing number of artificial structures in estuarine, coastal and marine environments is
causing “ocean sprawl”. Artificial structures do not only modify marine and coastal …

Species moved by human activities beyond the limits of their native geographic ranges into
areas in which they do not naturally occur (termed aliens) can cause a broad range of …

The field of biological invasions arouses considerable interest within different sec tors of
society. Many scientists are curious to understand how introduced species have been …
