Hi All, I've had several requests to share to results of my survey with the Ecolog group, so I will do so. Thanks to everyone who is taking the time to respond to my survey.
Also, I was apparently unclear about my motivation for conducting the survey. My apologies. I want to know what ecologist's (across a range of specializations) perceive to be the most important characteristics (not just what the literature tells us). I appreciate those who are telling me to read the literature myself. I assure you that I do, or at least try (there is always room for improvement). Thanks again, Derek Derek Marley Johnson Assistant Professor Department of Biology University of Louisiana Lafayette, LA 70504 337-482-6987 office 337-281-3541 cell _____ From: Derek Johnson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 01, 2007 10:32 AM To: 'Ecological Society of America: grants, jobs, news' Subject: What makes a good invasive species? I want to get very brief ecologists' perceptions on what makes a good exotic invasive species for presentation in a future talk. Please respond only to me and not the entire list serve. 1) Please list what you think are the three most important characteristics for a species to be a successful invasive exotic (in order of importance). a. b. c. 2) Rate your level of expertise on this subject (from 1-5 where 5 is an expert on the subject). Thanks for your help. Derek [EMAIL PROTECTED] Derek Marley Johnson Assistant Professor Department of Biology University of Louisiana Lafayette, LA 70504 337-482-6987 office 337-281-3541 cell
