Unprecedented rates of introduction and spread non-native species pose burgeoning challenges to biodiversity, natural resource management, regional economies, human health. Current biosecurity efforts are failing keep pace with globalization, revealing critical gaps in our understanding response invasions. Here, we identify four priority areas advance invasion science the face rapid global environmental change. First, should strive develop a more comprehensive framework for predicting how behavior, abundance, interspecific interactions vary relation conditions receiving environments these factors govern ecological impacts invasion. A second is understand potential synergistic effects multiple co-occurring stressors— particularly involving climate change—on establishment impact species. Climate adaptation mitigation strategies will need consider possible consequences promoting species, appropriate management responses be developed. The third address taxonomic impediment. ability detect evaluate risks compromised by growing deficit expertise, which cannot adequately compensated new molecular technologies alone. Management become increasingly challenging unless academia, industry, governments train employ personnel taxonomy systematics. Fourth, recommend that internationally cooperative bridgehead dispersal networks, organisms tend invade regions from locations where they have already established. Cooperation among countries eradicate or control established yield greater benefit than independent attempts individual exclude arriving establishing.

Invasive alien species are likely to interact with climate change, thus necessitating management that proactively addresses both global changes. However, invasive managers' concerns about the effects of degree which they incorporate change into their management, and what stops them from doing so remain unknown. Therefore, we surveyed natural resource managers addressing across U.S. priorities, concerns, strategies in a changing climate. Of 211 surveyed, most were very concerned influence on but organizations significantly less so. Managers reported lack funding personnel limited ability effectively manage species, while information consideration decision-making. Additionally, prioritized research identifies range-shifting native communities resilient invasions change. also this would be communicated through conversations, summaries, meetings/symposia. Despite need for more information, 65% strategic planning, preventative treatment control, increasing education outreach. These results show potential incorporating highlight clear pressing targeted research, accessible science communication, two-way dialogue between researchers focused

Sustainably managed non-native trees deliver economic and societal benefits with limited risk of spread to adjoining areas. However, some plantations have launched invasions that cause substantial damage biodiversity ecosystem services, while others pose threats causing such impacts. The challenge is maximise the trees, minimising negative impacts preserving future options. A workshop was held in 2019 develop global guidelines for sustainable use using Council Europe – Bern Convention Code Conduct on Invasive Alien Trees as a starting point. consist eight recommendations: 1) Use native or non-invasive preference invasive trees; 2) Be aware comply international, national, regional regulations concerning 3) invasion consider change trends; 4) Design adopt tailored practices plantation site selection silvicultural management; 5) Promote implement early detection rapid response programmes; 6) tree control, habitat restoration, dealing highly modified ecosystems; 7) Engage stakeholders risks posed by caused, options 8) Develop support networks, collaborative research, information sharing trees. are first step towards building consensus precautions should be taken when introducing planting They voluntary intended complement statutory requirements under international national legislation. application achievement their goals will help conserve forest biodiversity, ensure forestry, contribute several Sustainable Development Goals United Nations linked biodiversity.

The need to recognize diverse actors, their knowledge and values is being widely promoted as critical for sustainability in contemporary land use, natural resource management conservation initiatives. However, much of the case study literature, value including indigenous local (ILK) governance landscapes tends be overlooked undervalued. Understanding ILK comprising indigenous, traditional knowledge, this systematic review synthesizes how has been viewed incorporated into landscape-based studies; what processes, mechanisms areas focus have used integrate it; challenges opportunities that arise doing so.
