The spread of invasive species and infectious disease as drivers of ecosystem change (2008, background): “A national database on invasive species and vectors, as well as key environmental features to identify potentially suitable habitat, would help scientists to forecast the spread and effects of invasive species and of diseases (Ricciardi et al. 2000).”
Tackling Invasive Alien Species in Europe: the Top 20 Issues (2014, background): “The diffuse distribution, variable quality and lack of harmonisation of information on IAS limit the ability of managers to combat invasions (Ricciardi et al. 2000).”
The Invasive Species Challenge in Estuarine and Coastal Environments: Marrying Management and Science (2008, background): “Major developments in informatics place this kind of decision support system in reach (Ricciardi et al. 2000; Simpson Fig. 4 Conceptual relationship between connectivity (natural dispersal) and expanse of populations of introduced species and the probability of successful management.

Alien Insects: Threats and Implications for Conservation of Galápagos Islands (2006, background): “The paucity of information on the impact of invasive insects on natural ecosystems has been discussed by others (Parker et al. 1999, Nishida and Evenhuis 2000, Kolar and Lodge 2001), and the need to share it has been noted (Ricciardi et al. 2000, Sherley 2000).”
Assessing the global threat of invasive species to marine biodiversity (2008, background): “Most data have been compiled at local, national, or regional scales (Ricciardi et al. 2000).”
Black, Grey and Watch Lists of alien species in the Czech Republic based on environmental impacts and management strategy (2016, background): “Not only legislative tools are affecting the policy on IAS.”
Invasive species information networks: collaboration at multiple scales for prevention, early detection, and rapid response to invasive alien species (2009, background): “IAS could be a key test of the sincerity of world decisionmakers in responding to the growing challenges that globalisation poses.”
Non-indigenous ungulates as a threat to biodiversity (2009, background): “For adequate risk assessment of vertebrate introductions, it is necessary to arrive at informed estimates of the probabilities that a species will escape from private property, that it will establish self-sustaining, multiple populations in the wild, and that it will have negative impacts on indigen”
Predicting the impacts of an introduced species from its invasion history: an empirical approach applied to zebra mussel invasions (2003, background): “For many invaders, valuable data sets have not been published; this information should be made broadly accessible via Internet web sites, which ultimately could be linked within a global information system (Ricciardi et al., 2000).”
Integrating the Study of Non-native Plant Invasions across Spatial Scales (2006, background): “For example, the implementation and use of a global database on invasiveness of non-native species would improve both the risk assessment for new intercontinental introductions and the management strategies at the local scale for already existing populations (White and Schwarz 1998; Ricciardi et al.”
