Dr. Rebecca Epanchin-Niell Discusses 'Designing Cost-Efficient Surveillance Systems for Early Detection of Invasive Species'
SALISBURY, MD---Introduction of non-native species can cause substantial harm to agricultural and natural resources.
Dr. Rebecca Epanchin-Niell discusses measures that can help prevent that issue during her presentation “Designing Cost-Efficient Surveillance Systems for Early Detection of Invasive Species” Wednesday, February 27, at Salisbury University.
Part of SU’s Environmental Studies Colloquium Series, her talk is 5:30 p.m. in Perdue Hall’s Bennett Family Auditorium.
A fellow with Resources for the Future, a national organization committed to improving environmental, energy and natural resource decisions through economic research and policy, Epanchin-Niell discusses the use of bioeconomic models for invasive species prevention.
With options for pest spread and control, these models can enable surveillance resource allocation across large landscapes to minimize long-term costs stemming from non-native species.
