Researcher Spotlight: Dr. Steve Grodsky
This month, we interviewed Dr. Steve Grodsky at Cornell University who specializes in the emerging field of energy ecology — the study of interactions among energy development, ecosystems, and people.
Peering into predictors at the spongy moth invasion front
Shifting temperature regimes can influence the suitability and spread of invasive insects, including spongy moth. How can secondary host plant connectivity support its expansion across the U.S.?
Researcher Spotlight: Dr. Annette Evans
This month, we interviewed Dr. Annette Evans, a postdoctoral researcher at UMass Amherst/Northeast Climate Adaptation Science Center, whose work combines invasion ecology and climate change to inform land management by modeling abundance and distributions of invasive plants.
Researcher Spotlight: Jennifer Koch, Ph.D
We hear from Jennifer Koch, whose 32+ years of work and collaborations offer a glimmer of hope toward saving our native trees from forest pests, like the Emerald Ash Borer (EAB).
Researcher Spotlight: Dr. Mark Whitmore
Dr. Mark Whitmore is a well-versed forest entomologist and Director of the New York State Hemlock Initiative. Read more about his research program.
Coffee Talk: Embracing the Future through Resistance, Resilience, & Transformation
Pour a cup of coffee or tea and join the Northeast Regional Invasive Species and Climate Change (NE RISCC) Management Network for an hour coffee talk to discuss a resistance-resilience-transformation approach to addressing effects of climate change on invasive species.
The costs of inaction: Global invasive species spending reveals lack of proactive management
Using the InvaCost database, this study reports the most up-to-date and exhaustive overview of global spending for invasive species management, revealing important insights into spending trends and the cost of inaction.
RISCC Webinar: A Conversation on Kudzu
Join the Northeast Regional Invasive Species and Climate Change (RISCC) Management network for a special webinar: "A Conversation on Kudzu: When Research Intersects with Management, Good Things Happen."
Sensing the need to bridge the research-practice divide for invasive species detection and monitoring
A team of researchers and practitioners tackles the disconnect between research and application in the field of remote sensing for invasive species, summarizing 40+ years of literature and experience.
