Science and Products
Modelling presence versus abundance for invasive species risk assessment
Negative effects of an allelopathic invader on AM fungal plant species drive community‐level responses
Ecological forecasting—21st century science for 21st century management
Natural resource managers are coping with rapid changes in both environmental conditions and ecosystems. Enabled by recent advances in data collection and assimilation, short-term ecological forecasting may be a powerful tool to help resource managers anticipate impending near-term changes in ecosystem conditions or dynamics. Managers may use the information in forecasts to minimize the adverse ef
A modeling workflow that balances automation and human intervention to inform invasive plant management decisions at multiple spatial scales
Human-associated species dominate passerine communities across the United States
Co-occurrence and occupancy dynamics of mourning doves and Eurasian collared-doves
The development and delivery of species distribution models to inform decision-making
Non-native plants have greater impacts because of differing per-capita effects and non-linear abundance-impact curves
Clustering and ensembling approaches to support surrogate-based species management
The area under the precision‐recall curve as a performance metric for rare binary events
Integrating landscape simulation models with economic and decision tools for invasive species control
The relationship between invader abundance and impact
Breeding Bird Survey songbird occurrences during 1977-1979 and 2012-2014 in conterminous U.S.
Data associated with Sofaer and Jarnevich 'Accounting for sampling patterns reverses the relative importance of trade and climate for the global sharing of exotic plants'
Data used to estimate and project the effects of climate and land use change on wetland densities in the Prairie Pothole Region
