Invasion and eradication of a competitively superior species in heterogeneous landscapes

Abstract: a b s t r a c tThe effect of heterogeneous environments upon the dynamics of invasion and the eradication or control of invasive species is poorly understood, although it is a major challenge for biodiversity conservation. Here, we first investigate how the probability and time for invasion are affected by spatial heterogeneity. Then, we study the effect of control program strategies (e.g. species specificity, spatial scale of action, detection and eradication efficiency) on the success and time of eradication… Show more

“…However, if species invasions proceed past the point of easy eradication then SEPMs can assist managers and 66 researchers in making predictions about future abundance (Meekins and McCarthy 2002), range extent (Higgins 67 et al 1996), and the effectiveness of control regimes (Vuilleumier et al 2011). Here, we formulate SEPMs to 68 predict the effectiveness of hypothetical lethal and contraceptive control strategies on the future spread of an 69 invasive economic and ecological pest species, the grey squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis).…”
