Daniel Simberloff is the Nancy Gore Hunger Professor of Environmental Studies and Director of the Institute for Biological Invasions at the University of Tennessee. He is the author of approximately 500 publications on ecology, biogeography, evolution, and conservation biology; much of his research focuses on causes and consequences of biological invasions. He is senior editor of the Encyclopedia of Biological Invasions (University of California Press, 2011), editor-in-chief of Biological Invasions, associate editor of the Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution, and Systematics, and serves on the editorial boards of several other journals. In 2006 he was named Eminent Ecologist by the Ecological Society of America.
* I. Introduction
* II. Geography and time course of invasions
* 1. Which areas have incurred the most biological invasions,
* and where have most invasions originated?
* 2. When have invasions occurred and by what means? How have rates of
invasions changed?
* 3. The particular vulnerability of island ecosystems.
* 4. Distribution of introduced species among habitats.
* 5. Introduced species and global climate change
* III. Impacts of introduced species
*
* 1. Many have little or no impact
* 2. Direct effects
* 3. Indirect effects
* 4. "Invasional meltdown"
* 5. Time lags
* 6. Economic impacts
* IV. Evolution of introduced species and of natives in response to
them
* 1. Morphological evolution
* 2. Behavioral evolution
* 3. Life cycle evolution
* 4. Physiological evolution
* 5. New species/modified native species generated by hybridization
* V. Management of introduced species
* 1. International agreements and national regulatory frameworks
* 2. Border security
* 3. Eradication
* 4. Maintenance management
* VI. Controversial matters regarding invasions
*
* 1. Useful introduced species
* 2. Introduced species and biodiversity
* 3. Invasive natives
* 4. How do we know a species is introduced?
* 5. Xenophobia
* 6. Animal rights vs. species rights
* 7. Restoration vs. novel ecosystems
* VII. Prospect - the Homogocene?
* VIII. Suggested reading and websites
