Capacity of countries to reduce biological invasions

This study identifies socio-ecological predictors that explain country-level alien species richness and capacity to manage biological invasions, revealing historical influences of governance and trade.

The economic burden of protecting islands from invasive alien species

The paper assesses the economic costs of invasive alien species on islands, finding offshore islands have the highest management costs, while nation states spend more on damage and GDP proportion.

Economic costs of biological invasions in the United States

The paper quantifies the economic costs of invasive species in the United States from 1960 to 2020, finding total costs of $4.52 trillion with most costs related to resource damages and losses.

Analysing economic costs of invasive alien species with the invacost R package

The paper introduces the invacost R package to analyze and standardize economic costs of invasive alien species using the InvaCost database.

Societal attention toward extinction threats

The paper analyzes public attention toward climate change and biological invasions using text data mining in three European countries, finding higher attention for climate change and a correlation with IUCN Red List severity.

On the overlap between scientific and societal taxonomic attention - insights for conservation

The paper examines the alignment between scientific and societal attention to species, finding high concordance across different groups and media sources.

Gender-biased perceptions of important ecology articles

The paper examines gender bias in ecology article rankings, finding women prioritize articles with more female co-authors but still rank men-dominated articles higher than men do.
