Biological invasions and biocultural diversity: linking ecological and cultural systems (2008, background): “…threaten mangrove rehabilitation projects adjacent to areas where local herdsmen have managed the buffalo for over 5000 years, villagers ‘rescue’ captured buffalo from government slaughterhouses and re-release them into local forests for karmic value (Baskin 2002; DahdouhGuebas et al. 2006).”
Philornis downsi parasitism is the primary cause of nestling mortality in the critically endangered Darwin’s medium tree finch (Camarhynchus pauper) (2010, background): “Collectively, these invasive alien species have been identified as the prime threat to terrestrial life in the Galápagos (Baskin 2002; Causton et al. 2006), and are implicated in the current and future population declines of some of the iconic Darwin’s finches (see Grant and Grant 1997; Dvorak et…”
Mapping the risk of establishment and spread of sudden oak death in California (2004, background): “One type of invasion that is occurring with growing regularity involves plant pathogens that either are non-native or are native but have recently expanded their geographical range (Baskin, 2002; Campbell and Schlarbaum, 2002).”
Introduction: Population Biology, Evolution, and Control of Invasive Species (2003, methodology): “According to the standards set by the International Plant Protection Convention, imports cannot be restricted for species that are already widespread and are not the object of an “official” control program (Baskin 2002).”
The war of the roses: demilitarizing invasion biology (2005, background): “Baskin (2002) cites further examples such as “beachhead, battle, kill, eradicate, overrun, [and] explode” in discussions of invasive species, thereby characterizing language that appears frequently in popular reports about invasives (Figure 2).”
Invasion Biology 1958-2005: The Pursuit of Science and Conservation (2004, background): “Examples of such books written or edited by ecologists, or science journalists, include Life Out of Bounds: Bioinvasions in a Borderless World (Bright and 1998), Killer Algae (Meinesz 1999), Nature Out of Place: Biological Invasions in the Global Age (Van Driesche and Van Driesche 2000), Tinkering w”
Sudden oak death: endangering California and Oregon forest ecosystems (2003, background): “The emergence and introduction of new plant diseases continues to this day (Baskin 2002; Campbell and Schlarbaum 2002).”
