Networks of Invasion bridges a conceptual gap between ecological network studies and invasion biology studies. This book contains chapters detailing pressing concerns regarding invasive species in food webs, but also extends the idea of networks of invasion to other systems, such as mutualistic networks or even the human microbiome.
Chapters describe the tools, models, and empirical methods adapted for tackling invasions in ecological networks.
Chapter One: Impacts of Invasive Species on Food Webs: A Review of Empirical Data
Chapter Two: The Effects of Invasive Species on the Decline in Species Richness: A Global Meta-Analysis
Chapter Three: Invasions Toolkit: Current Methods for Tracking the Spread and Impact of Invasive Species
Chapter Four: Island Biogeography of Food Webs
Chapter Five: Robustness Trade-Offs in Model Food Webs: Invasion Probability Decreases While Invasion Consequences Increase With Connectance
Chapter Six: 14 Questions for Invasion in Ecological Networks

Dave has most recently begun to work with networks. He developed, with colleagues, a learning methodology to build networks from sample date. This has produced the largest, replicated network in agriculture. One of his particular interests is how behaviours and dynamics at the species level, as studied using the carabid-slug-weed system, build across species and their interactions to the dynamics of networks at the ecosystem level.
