Global Invasive Species Database

The Global Invasive Species Database (GISD) is an online resource that provides information about plants, animals, and other organisms that are introduced to new areas where they don’t naturally occur. These invasive species can harm local ecosystems, economies, and agriculture by outcompeting native species and causing environmental changes. The GISD aims to share data and promote awareness to help manage and prevent the spread of these species globally. It serves researchers, policymakers, and conservationists by offering detailed profiles, impact assessments, and strategies for controlling invasive species worldwide.
