Are the ecological impacts of alien species misrepresented? A review of the “native good, alien bad” philosophy (2010, background): “However, the majority of studies are undertaken on the basis of a fundamental assumption: that species translocation is inevitably problematic (e.g., Rodíguez 2001, Mooney 2005).”
The economic benefits of invasive species management (2019, background): “Invasive species are those introduced to a novel environment with negative ecological, economic or social impacts (Mooney, 2001).”
An assessment of the effectiveness of a large, national-scale invasive alien plant control strategy in South Africa (2012, unknown): “Alien plant invasions are a large and growing threat to ecosystem integrity in many parts of the world, where they change the structure and functioning of ecosystems, with negative consequences for the conservation of biodiversity and the delivery of ecosystem services (Mooney, 2005).”
Facilitation of the non-native Taraxacum officinale by native nurse cushion species in the high Andes of central Chile: are there differences between nurses? (2007, background): “…spread of non-native organisms into new areas where they have been deliberately or accidentally introduced by humans is occurring worldwide, with an increasing number of studies reporting the ecological and economic impacts of the presence of alien species (see Mooney & Hobbs 2000; Mooney 2005).”
