I discovered an invasive species in my own backyard.

Pieces of marine litter can also transport invasive species between seas.

Invasive species, such as non native trout and crawfish, eat native frogs.

Just as invasive species adapt to pesticides, most cancer cells adapt to therapies.

They were replaced by invasive species, which had less holding power to the rock.

RSP together with the Convention on Biological Diversity and the Global Invasive Species Programme organized a workshop from 27 to 29 June 2005 to develop a joint programme of work on marine invasive species.

A toolkit and guidelines for training programmes to enhance capacity for the management of invasive species of the marine and coastal environment in regional seas is being finalized.

The spread of this invasive alien species is the result of human activity around Lake Tana.

Under the banner of integrated pest management, hundreds of invasive species are now successfully controlled by strategies that restrict the population growth of pests but do not attempt to eradicate them

Invasive species have become a major component of the Mediterranean ecosystem and have serious impacts on the Mediterranean ecology, endangering many local and endemic Mediterranean species.

The cheap imports can replace a locally or even sustainably produced product (such as Alaskan salmon) with lower quality fish, invasive species, toxics and genetically modified species.

The airbreathing capacity of these fish has allowed such fish as Clarias batrachus to be an invasive species in Florida.

They're invasive.

It is, however, susceptible to the crayfish plague carried by the invasive American species signal crayfish ( Pacifastacus leniusculus ), and is therefore listed as a vulnerable species on the IUCN Red List.

(e) Considering management options within a multi species approach which accounts for species interactions and consequences

So we are working now on a non invasive again, these are all invasive studies.

So super growth, he's invasive.

We'll, they're both non invasive.

recognizing that invasive species are having an increasing impact on forests in some regions and the need to have cooperative regional and international responses to this problem,

52. Further calls upon States to accelerate the development of measures to address the problem of invasive alien species in ballast water, and urges the International Maritime Organization to finalize the International Convention on the Control and Management of Ships' Ballast Water and Sediments

Although it is still valued for its fur in some regions, its destructive feeding and burrowing behaviors make this invasive species a pest throughout most of its range.

There still remains the question of responsibility for high seas management of highly migratory species, and of the relationship between high seas management and the management by coastal States of highly migratory species within their exclusive economic zones.

(e) The management and conservation of forest resources and the diversity of species

And most of our work's pretty non invasive.

Some similar considerations will apply with respect to the management of highly migratory species.

(o) Analyse the causes of, and address solutions to, threats to forest health and vitality from natural disasters and human activities, including threats from fire, pollution, pests, disease and invasive alien species

Other major threats to forest health and productivity include those posed by fire, storms and other cataclysms, drought, air pollution, the long term effects of climate change, pests, diseases and invasive species.

Human activities, such as environmentally damaging infrastructure development, modification of river flows, deforestation, unsustainable agricultural practices, over fishing, introduction of invasive alien species and release of pollutants, can upset this delicate balance.

But it's completely safe, completely non invasive and silent.

And he starts infiltrating other tissue, so he's invasive.

While genome resource conservation is not a substitute for species and ecosystem conservation, it can provide many important tools for preservation and management of endangered species.

I is for the invasive species like the fire ants, the zebra mussels, broom grasses and pathogenic bacteria and viruses that are flooding every country, and at an exponential rate that's the I.

First, it's clearly a non invasive, wireless form of communication.

Data collected in support of conservation and management of target stocks must also include information on associated and dependent species, whether they are fish or non fish species.

Similarly, adaptive responses in the forestry sector include changes in tree species and shifts in management practices.

Indeed, the parallels between cancerous cells and invasive species suggest that the principles for successful cancer therapy might be found not in the magic bullets of microbiology but in the evolutionary dynamics of applied ecology.

The neurologist's test is non invasive. They both use existing infrastructure.

Similarly, with respect to highly migratory species, and most notably tuna, the more valuable longer lived species, which require the most careful management, are either over exploited or depleted.

It is also an issue that is connected to other marine environmental, economic and health problems, including the possible distribution of toxic substances, the destruction of marine habitats and biodiversity, and the transfer of invasive species.

And not only does it grow like crazy, but it becomes invasive.

And invasive means that it doesn't care what's going on around it.

Ships also affect biodiversity through the release of alien invasive species transported in ballast water and in fouling assemblages on ship bottoms.133 The threats to biodiversity from invasions of alien species in the high seas are believed to be substantially less than in coastal waters, because natural ocean circulation causes biotic exchanges over vast scales.

So, just as judicious use of pesticides can control invasive species, a therapeutic strategy designed to maintain a stable, tolerable tumor volume could improve a patient s prospects for survival by allowing sensitive cells to suppress the growth of resistant ones.

International management is thought to be necessary, because the species occupies waters of the United States, Canada, Russia, and possibly Japan (where the species is known to the Japanese as ohyo ), and matures slowly.
