Full Description
This exam investigates the biological and ecological mechanisms that enable non-native species to thrive in new environments, assessing factors like competition, predation, and disease dynamics. The focus will be on actionable theoretical frameworks.
Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for ecologists and conservationists as it helps identify vulnerabilities in native ecosystems. These insights can contribute significantly to effective management and policy-making.
Candidates will demonstrate their grasp of the theoretical concepts underlying species invasiveness and articulate the potential ecological consequences during the examination. Effective communication of complex ecological ideas will be assessed.
Furthermore, the exam may incorporate discussions on predictive models for assessing invasion risks and implications for management practices.
Sample Questions
- What role does competitive advantage play in the success of an invasive species?
- How can disease dynamics contribute to the establishment of invasive species?
