Invasive Species Assessment

Invasive Species Assessment involves evaluating non-native plants, animals, or organisms that have been introduced to an area where they are not naturally found. The goal is to understand their impact on local ecosystems, including competition with native species, potential threats to biodiversity, and economic consequences. This process typically includes identifying the species, assessing how widespread and harmful they are, and determining the best management strategies to control or eliminate them. It helps protect native ecosystems and maintain environmental health by making informed decisions about invasive species management.
