invasivespecies.nbii.gov — Hundreds of new species from other countries are introduced intentionally or accidentally into the U.S. each year. The Invasive Species Information Node (ISIN) creates a central repository for information pertaining to the identification, description, management, and control of invasive species. This resource provides links to avian influenza More...

www.fort.usgs.gov — The FORT research team will develop maps of invasive species at local, regional, and national scales and identify priority invasive species, vulnerable habitats, and pathways of invasion. County-level and point data on occurrence will be linked to plot-level and site-level information on species abundance and spread. Together, USGS, NASA, and CSU More...

wfrc.usgs.gov — The general objective of this collaborative project is to investigate and improve habitat-based ecological modeling on large rivers. While many ecological aspects of large-river alteration have been investigated previously, there has been little emphasis on how alterations of physical habitat interact with life histories, biotic interactions, and More...

www.umesc.usgs.gov — Gobies are capable of rapid population growth after they reach new areas. They have shown the ability to out-compete native fish for food and habitat. Another area of concern involves potential predation on the eggs and fry of lake trout. After first being discovered in 1990 along the St. Claire River (a Canadian river north of Detroit), gobies More...

invasivespecies.nbii.gov — The Invasive Species Information Node partner DiscoverLife.org has been developing an all taxa species identification web tool. They conceptualized the Polistes Foundation, Nature Days, ID Nature guides, and an online reporting tool (the Polistes Global Map Browser powered by TopoZone) that allows users to report a siting of a species location.
