Plant Invasions on Northern New Zealand Offshore Island

Goal: to investigate relationships between non-native and island characteristics and the interplay with plant traits and life histories. The aim is to provide management strategies to conservation bodies.
The study system: a total of 264 islands spanning over 600 km!
Positive relationship between exotic and native plant species richness. Heavily invaded islands are coloured red, while relatively under-invaded islands are coloured green.
