Streszczenie:
Increased global trade and travel have led to a rise in the number of invasive alien species (IAS), i.e. species introduced by humans in geographic areas where are not naturally found, worldwide. Despite the recognized role of wildlife, as well as of wildlife translocations, in the emergence and re-emergence of infections of public health significance, IAS remain mainly studied for their environmental impacts, and their disease risk towards humans and animals is still largely neglected by health professionals. The main aim of this thesis is therefore to cover this gap by setting the ground

The incidental introduction of alien phytophagous insects and mites has become quite a common event in the world owing to intensive commercial exchanges of plants and goods and ever-increasing tourist traffic. There is evidence that this phenomenon is increasing, in spite of the control measures of the EU phytosanitary system in order to minimize unintentional introductions. The introduction of an alien species in a new ecosystem and the interaction between an alien species and the autochthonous species usually has many disadvantages.

The biodiversity of our planet is facing a severe crisis. Habitat alteration, climate change, the spread of alien species, and overexploitation are major drivers of biodiversity loss. These global change drivers often act jointly or even synergistically on population declines. To identify priorities for conservation, it is thus essential to compare the relative impact of different threats on biodiversity. Amphibians are the vertebrates showing both the largest proportion of threatened species and the highest rate of decline. Out of the ~6,800 amphibian species assessed by the IUCN, more than 4

There are many factors that have been proposed to contribute to plant invasiveness in nonnative ecosystems. Traits of invading species are one of them. It has been proposed that successful species at a certain invasion stage share particular traits, which could be used to predict the behaviour of potentially invasive plants at the respective stage. Three main stages of invasion are distinguished: introduction, naturalization, and invasion. I conducted a stageand trait-based analysis of available data for the invasion of New Zealand by the flora of southern Africa. Using 3076 southern African n

The world, in recent decades, has witnessed an incalculable surge in global “wicked” policy problems that have long-term, and most often irreversible, impacts, not least terrorism, climate change, biodiversity losses and desertification. Wicked problems are wicked because there is no single epistemological system that can adequately coordinate policy action for addressing them. Literature abounds with international case studies of opposition to national institutions that are designed to put into effect global and regional policies for resolving wicked problems. This raises questions about what

The invasive potential of Myoporum laetum, a tree recently introduced into the southwestern Cape, South Africa, was evaluated, by comparing various aspects of its seed biology with those of another bird-dispersed alien, Acacia cyclops which is a successful invader in this region. M. laetum has higher annual seed production, but lower soil-stored seed banks than A. cyclops. Both experience high seed predation, especially under parent canopies. M. laetum has a more persistant seed store and is able to germinate and establish in shade. Germination of untreated A. cyclops seeds was 23.3% and this

Thesis (MScConsEcol (Conservation Ecology and Entomology))--University of Stellenbosch, 2010.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Riparian ecosystems of the Mediterranean south-western Cape region are projected to experience significant decreases in streamflow due to climate change and increased demands for water associated with human demographic trends and increasing living standards. Aggravating this problem are woody invasive alien plants, such as Acacia mearnsii, whose impacts, including those on catchment water yields, have justified extensive eradication programmes such as Working for Water (WfW).

Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2012.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Invasive alien species are widely considered to be the second most significant threat to biodiversity globally following direct habitat destruction. The invasion of riparian systems worldwide by alien plants has contributed to profound changes in biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. In South Africa, river banks and river beds are amongst the most severely invaded landscapes, with the most damaging invaders, especially in the Fynbos Biome, being trees and shrubs of the Australian genera Acacia and Eucalyptus.

Invasiva främmande arter är ett av de största hoten mot biologisk mångfald samt att de medför stora ekonomiska kostnader. Kommunerna spelar en viktig roll gällande tillsyn och bekämpning av invasiva främmande arter då de ofta är fastighetsägare och ansvarar för stora arealer. Med ett varmare klimat kan många arter som varit ett problem i varmare länder och i södra delarna av Sverige bli ett problem även på nordligare breddgrader. Det kan därför vara viktigt att kommunerna har ett väl fungerande arbete med etablerade arter och en beredskapsplan mot de arter som kan komma att bli ett problem i f

O comércio de espécies selvagens tem crescido bastante ao longo das últimas décadas. Atualmente é considerado o quarto maior tráfico ilegal no mundo, logo seguido da transação de drogas, de armas e de humanos. Estima-se que o comércio de espécies selvagens pode ultrapassar os 12 milhões de euros por ano na UE. Abrange tanto as plantas como os animais vivos; mas, nestes últimos, incluem-se também os seus derivados, tais como sejam as peles, os ossos, alimento, entre outros.

Thesis (MSc)--Stellenbosch University, 2014.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Invasive alien plant species have devastating effects on the environments that they invade. Australian Acacias, a group of plants that has been planted globally for a range of uses, but has escape plantation areas and became invasive in many countries, are particularly problematic. Acacia mearnsii is one of these invasive alien plant species and in South Africa it is also an important forestry species. It is currently the fifth most widespread invasive alien plant in South Africa, only restricted by the very arid Karoo, thus it

Genom att undersöka möjligheten att ta vara på Parkslides egenskaper och skapa någonting användbart för vårt samhälle, utan negativ påverkan på människa, djur och framtid, så kan det i sin tur skapa en möjlighet för en hållbar utveckling.
