Studies are increasingly exploring community gains from managing invasive plants. Here's an interesting study on the revenue potential of managing invasive water hyacinth @moefcc @BioinvNet link.springer.com/article/10.100…
These “invasive” fishes outcompete native species, reproduce aggressively, and thrive in disturbed environments. In India, 12 invasive fishes are recognised as a major threat, but this list will likely grow without stronger policies and more scientific monitoring in place

Greater tropical regions like Oceania, Brazil, and India are emerging hotspots of plant invasions. Timely actions are needed to prevent alien species introduction and their spread

Some media coverage on our recent study on the tropics Climate change + wildfires + landuse change + rising trade + biodiversity loss = novel ecosystems shaped by alien species @EconovoAU @JCSvenning Full paper: rdcu.be/ev5w1 eurekalert.org/news-releases/…
This survey by @ntca_india has produced the national report and database on invasive plants in India. Critical for conservation of natural areas and developing informed policies for managing invasive species in India @moefcc @BioinvNet

An excellent summary of our recent paper in @NatRevBiodiv “Invasions can trigger wildfires in forests such as Amazon, adding to the rising atmospheric CO2 levels - which may in turn promote woody invasions elsewhere like in African savannas” Paper: nature.com/articles/s4435…
