When an invasive wetland grass degrades a Ramsar wetland and Important Bird Area,
decisive management action is called for. To limit the extent and spread of European …

Invasive species are a threat to biodiversity and can cause ecological degradation, however,
well-established invasive species may serve valuable ecological functions. For example, in …

European common reed (Phragmites australis; common reed) is an aggressive invader of
North American wetlands that forms homogenous patches and replaces native flora. Dense …

Wetland restoration often involves invasive‐plant suppression to encourage the recovery of
native‐dominated vegetation communities. However, assessment of recovery is usually …

Plant invasions often lead to homogenization of plant communities, but the potential for
homogenization of other trophic levels is understudied in many systems. Biotic communities …

Identifying the mechanisms that result in a “high impact” invasive species can be difficult.
Coexistence theory suggests that detrimental invasive species can be better predicted by …

Large river floodplain systems (LRFS) are among the most diverse and dynamic
ecosystems. Accurately monitoring the dynamics of LRFS over long time series is …

The non-native invasive form of common reed (Phragmites australis australis; hereafter
