Impact of land-use and climate change on invasive alien plant species in South-Africa

The interaction of habitat, land use, climate change and alien invasive species global change drivers will lead the research for the PhD. The overall aim of the research project is to determine the invasion patterns of invasive alien plant species (whether woody or a set of species) under different land use types and climate change. This is all part of climate adaptation strategies in South Africa.
