SUMMARY:NISAW Webinar: Opportunities and Challenges for Preventing the Next Plant Invasion
DESCRIPTION:In the past 50 years\, the number of non-native species introduced outside their native range has doubled\, leading to substantial negative ecological and socioeconomic impacts. This is a problem that will persist as species introductions continue to rise and impacts are intensified by climate change and other drivers of change. It is well-established that economic returns on investment in prevention and eradication far outweigh those for containment and maintenance control management strategies\, but investment in prevention is still much less than what is spent on management. Weed risk assessment is a method to preemptively screen species before they are introduced to a new area (or as early as possible). It is based on the idea that species traits can be used to predict the success (or failure) of a species at passing through the stages of invasion and spread. In this presentation\, we will discuss different approaches to risk assessment\, how results are applied\, some of the benefits and costs of this process\, and the future of risk assessment to prevent continued plant invasions. \nREGISTER HERE \nThis presentation is hosted by CAST in partnership with NAISMA.\n \nPresented by Deah Lieurance\, Assistant Professor of Invasive Species Biology and Management at Penn State University\, and Theresa Culley\, Professor of Plant Ecology and past Head of the Department of Biological Sciences at the University of Cincinnati \n  \n

SUMMARY:NISAW Webinar: The Invasive Species Language Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Communicating about invasive species can get complicated! On February 27-28\, in partnership with NAISMA for National Invasive Species Awareness Week (NISAW)\, Sea Grant is proud to present The Invasive Species Language Workshop\, bringing together invasive species researchers and science communication professionals to share best practices for communicating about biological invasions to scientists\, stakeholders\, and the public. \nDay 1 (February 27) will feature a 2-hour NISAW webinar on communications issues in invasion biology\, including inclusive language\, effective use of metaphor\, changes to species names\, and more. These hybrid presentations will be available to watch online for free\, and virtual attendees will be able to send in questions for discussion. Register here: https://naisma.org/event/nisaw-webinar-the-invasive-species-language-workshop/2024-02-27/. \nDay 2 (February 28)\, held in-person in Washington\, DC\, will feature in-depth discussion to develop research topics and interventions to improve communication strategies in invasion biology\, including the process for changing species names\, harmonizing communications strategies across agencies and research groups\, tailoring messaging to different stakeholder groups\, and more. Attendance for this portion is limited: reach out to Tim Campbell (tim.campbell@wisc.edu) if interested in participating in person.
