Mapping Invasive Species Risks with Stochastic Models: A Cross-Border United States-Canada Application for Sirex noctilio Fabricius

RISK ANALYSIS, 29(6), 868–884.

By: D. Yemshanov *, F. Koch n, D. McKenney *, M. Downing* & F. Sapio*

author keywords: Binary entropy; global entry potential; host resource; marine imports; ports of entry; risk mapping; Sirex noctilio; stochastic model
