Book Description
Abstract: Prior research on collaborative approaches has occurred extensively in relation to watershed management. However, such an analysis has yet to be conducted on the role collaborative partnerships play in managing invasive species. The management of invasive species had largely been carried out by state and federal wildlife agencies in a more centralized, top-down fashion, just as efforts to address specific watershed issues had been done prior to the adoption of collaborative management methods. As invasive species are becoming progressively established in native habitats, more novel approaches - including collaborative partnerships between public, private, and non-profit entities - have been sought to prevent and mitigate ecological disturbances. One of the various questions this study seeks to answer is to what degree do these collaborative institutions influence the policies formulated and implemented at various levels of government to combat the spread of invasive species, and what determines this effect? Through document analysis and semi-structured interviews with officials from two collaborative partnerships in the Great Lakes and Florida, the above questions will be explored so as to contribute to the existent knowledge of collaborations and to offer how collaborations may be used more effectively in the future to manage invasive species.

Control of Invasive Species
Author: Marie Venner
Publisher: Transportation Research Board
ISBN: 0309097746
Category : Invasive plants
Languages : en
Pages : 126
Book Description
TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Synthesis 363: Control of Invasive Species explores the extent to which state departments of transportation are identifying actions that affect the spread of invasive species, preventing introduction, tracking status and locations of "invasives" in a timely and ongoing manner, controlling found populations, restoring invaded habitats, conducting research, and sharing lessons learned. The report documents successful practices and lessons learned. It also synthesizes the state of the practice in developing Integrated (Roadside) Vegetation Management, along with physical, chemical, biological, and cultural control mechanisms.

Invasive Plant Ecology and Management
Author: Thomas A. Monaco
Publisher: CABI
ISBN: 1845938119
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
Bringing together ecology and management of invasive plants within natural and agricultural ecosystems, this book bridges the knowledge gap between the processes operating within ecosystems and the practices used to prevent, contain, control and eradicate invasive plant species. The book targets key processes that can be managed, the impact of invasive plants on these ecosystem processes and illustrates how adopting ecologically based principles can influence the ecosystem and lead to effective land management.
