Are Urban Green Spaces’ Attributes Relevant to Explain the Occurrence of Invasive Species Within Urban Green Infrastructure? by Mónica Andrade, Cláudia Fernandes, Albano Figueiredo

“…Despite the importance of Urban Green Infrastructure (UGI) as a provider of multiple Ecosystem Services (ESs), some concerns have been raised regarding Ecosystem Disservices (EDs) associated with UGI design and management, namely, the link between Urban Green Spaces’ (UGSs) attributes and invasion spatial patterns. This research takes the UGI of Coimbra, a medium-sized Portuguese city, as a case study to explore the relationships between UGS attributes and the occurrence of invasive plant species. …”
