Database of field studies on environmental impacts of invasive plant species in Europe
There is great concern on the effects of non-native species impacts on biodiversity and ecosystem services. We constructed a comprehensive database of the scientific papers on field studies reporting environmental impacts of invasive plant species in Europe. We searched for relevant articles on the Web of Science database until the end of 2022 with no restriction on publication year. Our final dataset included 266 publications on 897 impacts of 104 invasive plant species on native species, communities and ecosystem properties in 29 European countries. This database contributes to the IPBES Global Invasive Alien Species Assessment.
