Consistency of impact assessment protocols for non-native species
González-Moreno, Pablo; Lazzaro, Lorenzo; Vilà, Montserrat; Preda, Cristina; Adriaens, Tim; Bacher, Sven; Brundu, Giuseppe; Copp, Gordon H.; Essl, FranzStandardized tools are needed to identify and prioritize the most harmful non-native species (NNS).

To estimate the consistency across impact assessment protocols, 89 specialists in biological invasions used 11 protocols to screen ...
