Anotácia knihy

While the precautionary principle advocates a §proactive posture towards the eradication of §invasive species, there is little empirical evidence §to support this effort. By examining fennel §management on Santa Cruz Island, California, from §three perspectives, I advocate an ecological §framework for weed management. First, a critical §discourse analysis revealed that underlying §scientific assumptions and personal bias failed to §provide hypothesized results. Next, two long-term §field studies, The Nature Conservancy's Central §Valley Fennel Removal Experiment and the University §of California at Santa Cruz's Natural History Field §Quarter Fennel Project, focused on the response of §vegetation guilds of introduced and native origin to §restoration disturbances that produced results §contrary to common wisdom. Finally, the allelopathic §potential of fennel was evaluated against a suite of §species from introduced and native origin. §Allelopathic interference was most negative for §growth of introduced species with little §significance for their germination, and interference §was most negative for germination of native species §with little significance for their growth.
