Managing
Coastal Aquatic Invasive Species in California:
Existing Policies and Policy Gaps (Jan
2011; PDF | 1.5 MB)
California State Library.
California Research
Bureau. CRB-11-001.
This nonpartisan report has been drafted
in response to a request from the Senate Natural
Resources and Water Committee, based on concerns
that California lacks a robust framework that
can guide policy, regulatory and fiscal decisions
in response to coastal aquatic invasive species.
This report features relevant background information,
as well as a policy framework for analyzing
the challenges and opportunities of coastal
aquatic invasive species in California. The
report focuses on opportunities for improvement
over six general policy categories (Authority,
Prevention, Research, Control, Implementation,
and Coordination) and addresses the vectors,
or pathways, through which invasive species
are introduced.

Invader Updater
University of Florida. IFAS. Department of Wildlife Ecology & Conservation.
First published in Winter 2009, this quarterly
electronic newsletter is published by Dr. Steve
Johnson and Monica McGarrity of the University
of Florida, IFAS Gulf Coast Research and Education
Center. The Invader Updater focuses on topics
related to invasive vertebrate animals in Florida
and the southeastern U.S. On occasion, we may
also cover issues relevant in other parts of
the U.S. (or the world), or provide information
on nonindigenous species that are not yet considered
invasive.
See the new issue of Invader Updater - Summer 2010.

Field
Guide to the Nonindigenous Marine Fishes of Florida
(Sep 2009)
DOI. USGS.
Southeast Ecological Science Center.
NOAA Technical Memorandum NOS NCCOS 92, published
in partnership with the NOAA National Centers for
Coastal Ocean Science.
This field guide provides species accounts for non-native fishes
sighted in estuarine and marine waters of Florida, serving as a "watch
list" of invaders that could potentially become established. Most
of these are thought to be aquarium fishes that either were illegally
released into the ocean or escaped captivity.

Lake Invaders:
The Fight For Lake Huron
Lake Invaders:
The Fight For Lake Huron.
A new documentary (available on DVD) which
tells the history of exotic species invasions
in Lake Huron and describes other invaders looming
on the horizon. Biologists from around the Great
Lakes describe the invaders, the damage they have
caused, and efforts to manage Lake Huron's ecosystem
and multi-million dollar fisheries.

Commission for Environmental Cooperation.
The new report, Trinational
Risk Assessment Guidelines for Aquatic Alien Invasive
Species was developed in cooperation with experts
from Canada, Mexico and the United States. These
guidelines will be used as a tool for North American
resource managers to assess the risk of introducing nonnative
species into a natural ecosystem.

Predicting
Future Introductions of Nonindigenous Species to
the Great Lakes (Final Report, 2008)
U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency. EPA/600/R-08/066F.
This report predicts the spread of aquatic nonindigenous
species into the Great Lakes to help resource managers
focus monitoring activities on particular species at
the most vulnerable U.S. Great Lakes ports. The report
also demonstrates the use of a habitat suitability model
and ballast water discharge data to predict invasion
potential.
