Scientists’ warning on invasive alien species
Original language description
Biological invasions are a global consequence of an increasingly connected world and the rise in human population size. In this review we show that the numbers of invasive alien species are increasing and synergies with other global changes are exacerbating current invasions and facilitating new ones. Invasions have complex and often immense long-term direct and indirect impacts. Invasive alien species break down biogeographic realms, affect native species richness and abundance, increase the risk of native species extinction, affect the genetic composition of native populations, change native animal behaviour, alter phylogenetic diversity across communities, and modify trophic networks. Many invasive alien species also change ecosystem functioning and the delivery of ecosystem services by altering nutrient and contaminant cycling, hydrology, habitat structure, and disturbance regimes. Scientific evidence has identified policy strategies to reduce future invasions, but these strategies are often insufficiently implemented. There have been long-term successes, such as eradication of rats and cats on increasingly large islands and biological control of weeds across continental areas. Improved international cooperation is crucial to reduce the impacts of invasive alien species on biodiversity, ecosystem services, and human livelihoods.
