Restoring Seed Dispersal to Guam: User's Guide

Abstract

The goal of this project was to assess the indirect impacts of an invasive species that has caused the loss of functionally important native species, and to determine if and how the lost ecological function could be recovered. The User's Guide presents four steps to rewilding an ecosystem to restore ecological function. The project focuses on seed dispersal, but other relevant ecological functions may include other mutualisms (e.g., pollination), predation, or facilitation, or benefits of these interactions, like carbon storage or agricultural yield.
