Description
The aim of this project was to develop a global indicator of biological invasion for the Convention on Biological Diversity's (CBD) 2010 target. In developing this indicator we created a database which lists all documented IAS in 57 randomly selected countries that are signatory to the CBD. In addition to this we investigated which alien species present on the Southern Ocean islands are IAS and we worked on a paper to test the global indicator of biological invasion at a national scale. All information for the above listed items are included in this collection.
