Non-English languages enrich scientific knowledge: the example of economic cost...
Angulo, Elena; Diagne, Christophe; Ballesteros-Mejia, Liliana; Adamjy, Tasnime; Ahmed, Danish A.; Akulov, Evgeny; Banerjee, Achyut K.; Capinha, CésarWe contend that the exclusive focus on the English language in scientific research might hinder effective communication between scientists and practitioners or policy makers whose mother tongue is non-English. This barrier in scientific knowledge and data transfer likely leads to significant knowledge gaps and may create biases when providing global patterns in many fields of science. To demonstrate this, we co...
Drivers of future alien species impacts: an expert‐based assessment
Essl, Franz; Lenzner, Bernd; Bacher, Sven; Bailey, Sarah; Capinha, César; Daehler, Curtis; Dullinger, Stefan; Genovesi, Piero; Hui, CangUnderstanding the likely future impacts of biological invasions is crucial yet highly challenging given the multiple relevant environmental, socio-economic and societal contexts and drivers. In the absence of quantitative models, methods based on expert knowledge are the best option for assessing future invasion trajectories. Here, we present an expert assessment of the drivers of potential alien species impact...
What will the future bring for biological invasions on islands? An expert-based...
Lenzner, Bernd; Latombe, Guillaume; Capinha, César; Bellard, Céline; Courchamp, Franck; Diagne, Christophe; Dullinger, Stefan; Golivets, MarinaBiological invasions are a major threat to global biodiversity with particularly strong implications for island biodiversity. Much research has been dedicated towards understanding historic and current changes in alien species distribution and impacts on islands and potential changes under future climate change. However, projections of how alien species richness and impacts on islands might develop in the futur...
