Name: Fridley, Jason (Researcher)
Institution: Syracuse University
Description of Expertise:
My research on invasive species is ecological, focusing on attributes of invaders that allow them to invade intact natural ecosystems, particularly woody species in deciduous forests. I have also worked on the ecology of invasions in other systems, such as perennial grassland in Europe.
