Regional awareness of historical and ecological impacts of invasive species : A case for highlighting government resources for local history research
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Historically the lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas has relied on agriculture for economic development as well as travel and tourism given its proximity to Mexico. UTRGV University Library Special Collections & Archives compiles research guides to facilitate access and discovery of relevant information and resources among our collections. Our Invasive Plant & Insect Species Research Guide is also intended to raise regional awareness of the historical impacts of invasive species on the local environment and agriculture, including the transformation of ecological landscapes, endangerment of native species, economic harms, and threats to human safety and border security. You may access the Invasive Plants & Insects Research Guide via: https://utrgv.libguides.com/SCA/invasive
