Biological invasions in developing and developed countries: does one model fit all? (2010, background): “There have been calls for the creation of a worldwide organization to control exotics (e.g., Inderjit et al. 2006; Perrings et al. 2002).”
Biological control of invasive species: solution or pollution? (2006, background): “…the most important insect and mite pests inthe US are exotic, invasive species that severely impact agricultural, forest, and urban ecosystems, costing billions of dollars annually and threatening the integrity of natural environments and the viability of endangered species (Perrings et al. 2002).”
Consistent accuracy of the Australian weed risk assessment system across varied geographies (2008, background): “With the average probabilities of correctly rejecting or accepting a species of unknown invasive potential being over 80% for all of these geographies (minor invaders categorized as invasive), selection of the ‘best’ approach, both in terms of whether to be more precautionary about minor invaders an”
''Transgenic treadmill": Responses to the emergence and spread of glyphosate-resistant johnsongrass in Argentina (2009, background): “The scale would depend on the potential range of spread by the weed (Perrings et al., 2002).”
Optimal detection and control strategies for invasive species management (2007, background): “As trade and travel increaseworldwide, the number of NIS introductions continues to rise (Perrings et al., 2002).”
The Economics of Pesticides and Pest Control (2007, background): “For instance, prices for agricultural commodities and factors of production typically do not account for the risk their use imposes on society (Perrings et al. 2005). Further compounding this problem, invasion prevention is a weakest-link public good. Benefits to society of prevention effort are det”
Economics of Harmful Invasive Species: A Review (2014, background): “Generally, invasive species management along the invasion chain is thought of as the “weakest link” public good in the sense that it is nonexclusive and non-rivalrous [25].”
Where will conflicts between alien and rare species occur after climate and land-use change? A test with a novel combined modelling approach (2011, background): “This is most important when facing financial resource limitations for land management and invasion control (Perrings et al. 2002; Culliney 2005).”
Dealing with non-native species: what makes the difference in South America? (2012, background): “Both economic and social aspects are intimately involved when dealing with non-native species (Perrings et al. 2002).”
