Publications

The following “Andina-inspired” book was published in August 2023, aimed particularly (but not exclusively) at early-career researchers:

Cousens R. and colleagues (2023) Effective Ecology: Seeking success in a hard science. CRC Press. https://www.routledge.com/Effective-Ecology-Seeking-Success-in-a-Hard-Science/Cousens/p/book/9781032322926 There is a non-downloadable free version on the internet at https://bookdown.org/rogerdavidcousens/_book/

Below are some outputs from our previous workshops. Note that several are on the topic of weeds and invasive plants. This merely reflects the enthusiasm of attendees at particular meetings and does not reflect the much broader interests of Andina:
