Benefits of invasion prevention: Effect of time lags, spread rates, and damage persistence (2015, background): “Ultimately, measures taken tomitigate invasion impacts are justifiable only if the costs of management are smaller than the impacts avoided (Olson, 2006).”
Individual and Cooperative Management of Invasive Species in Human-mediated Landscapes (2014, background): “Invasive species are one of the leading drivers of global environmental change, and cause large ecological and economic impacts (Olson 2006; Aukema et al. 2011).”
Pest Management in Food Systems: An Economic Perspective (2012, background): “Olson (110) provides a valuable review of the growing theoretical literature on optimal invasive species prevention and control.”
Current mismatch between research and conservation efforts: The need to study co-occurring invasive plant species (2013, background): “, 1987; Zavaleta, 2000) and draining national economies (Olson, 2006; Vilà et al., 2010; van Wilgen et al., 2002).”
Biological invasion of European tomato crops by Tuta absoluta: ecology, geographic expansion and prospects for biological control (2010, background): “Invasive species represent a major threat to both natural (Clavero and Garcı́a-Berthou 2005; Samways 2007) and agronomic (Olson 2006; Haack et al. 2010; Suckling and Brockerhoff 2010; Ragsdale et al. 2011) ecosystems.”
Economics of invasive species policy and management (2017, background): “…existing literature to highlight the types of economic analyses that have been applied to biological invasions, what has been learned, and future directions for research and management (for other reviews on the economics of managing bioinvasions, see Olson 2006; Gren 2008; Finnoff et al. 2010a).”
The status of biological invasions and their management in South Africa (2018, background): “…compared based on cost-benefit models 17 (van Wilgen et al. 2004; Sinden & Griffiths 2007; Epanchin-Niell & Hastings 2010), which are 18 rendered more accurate by knowing how effective control measures are per unit of cost or 19 effort (Olson & Roy 2003; Olson 2006; Epanchin-Niell & Hastings 2010).”
