Economics of Harmful Invasive Species: A Review (2014, methodology): “A regression analysis was conducted by [86] of the density of alien plants in 28 European and North African countries using several land-use and socio-economic parameters as determinants, and established significant and positive impact of import trade as well as Human Development Index as key driver”
Disentangling the role of environmental and human pressures on biological invasions across Europe (2010, unknown): “Propagule pressure is therefore closely linked with human activities and, indeed, there is increasing evidence that macroeconomic and macroecological variables need to be integrated in the same model if we are to understand the drivers of biological invasions more precisely (1, 21).”
Invasive alien plant species in China: regional distribution patterns (2005, background): “Vilà and Pujadas (2001) found that the parameters that best 1 Laboratory of Quantitative Vegetation Ecology, Institute of Botany, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100093, P.R. China, 2 School of”
The biogeography of naturalization in alien plants (2006, background): “…et al., 2002a; McKinney, 2004a; Taylor & Irwin, 2004), amount of trade and tourism (Thuiller et al., 2005) or economic activity (Dalmazzone, 2000; Vila & Pujadas, 2001; Taylor & Irwin, 2004) show that these variables are reasonable proxies that reflect differences between regions, indicating an…”
Alien flora of Europe: species diversity, temporal trends, geographical patterns and research needs. (2008, result): “Surprisingly, unlike in other studies (e.g., Vilà & Pujadas 2001, Pyšek et al. 2002a, Taylor & Irwin 2004), economic factors did not contribute to the explained variation.”
The link between international trade and the global distribution of invasive alien species (2008, background): “The role of international trade in the distribution of IAS has been rather axiomatic, but it has not been explored empirically on a global scale across taxa (but see Vila and Pujadas 2001; Dalmazzone 2002; Levine and D’Antonio 2003).”
Does the invasive species Reynoutria japonica have an impact on soil and flora in urban wastelands? (2009, background): “Urban areas are particularly prone to plant invasions (Trepl 1995; Pysek 1998): many exotic plants are deliberately introduced for ornamental purposes (Reichard and White 2001), and urban areas are focal points for trade and transport (roads, railways and waterways, harbours and airports), which con”
Biological invasions in developing and developed countries: does one model fit all? (2010, background): “Also, in a comparison between developed and developing countries in the Mediterranean region of Europe and Africa, Vilà and Pujadas (2001) found that level of imports and the level of human developments were the only variables associated with the density of exotic plant species.”
Geographical and taxonomic biases in invasion ecology. (2008, background): “On the other hand, there is a positive feedback between the degree of wealth and invasions, because developed regions with a high gross domestic product and large trade volumes are also those that receive the most alien species as an inescapable byproduct of trade in commodities, and therefore shoul”
Global change, global trade, and the next wave of plant invasions (2012, background): “In Europe and North Africa, monetary values of imports were one of the best predictors of invasive plant abundance (Vilà and Pujadas 2001), and in the UK, plants more widely available in 20th-century nurseries were more likely to be invasive today (DehnenSchmutz et al. 2007).”
