Turning the Tide: The Eradication of Invasive Species
Proceedings of the International Conference on Eradication of Island Invasives
Edited by C. R. Veitch and M. N. Clout
The Proceedings of the International Conference on Eradication of Island Invasives, held at the University of Auckland
in February 2001, is now available for you to purchase.
This 424 page book titled: “Turning the Tide: The Eradication of Invasive
Species”, edited by Dick Veitch and Mick Clout, contains 52 papers from
conference presentations and the abstracts from a further 21 of the
presentations.
The papers presented to the conference focused on the subject of: “Eradication
of invasive species from islands; methods used and the results achieved.” The
term ‘eradicating’ included work to remove invasive species where complete
eradication was some, or many, years away but the methods used were achieving
positive results or providing a significant learning experience. The term ‘island’
included true islands, natural habitat islands, remnant and artificial
habitat islands, or new invasions of natural ecosystems where eradication was
deemed feasible. Preference was given to papers which provided detail of the
techniques used or of the ecosystem response to the work. Significant
learning experiences included methods which failed.
