城市地区有独特的物种组合,这些物种由新的生态过程控制。生活在这些环境中的人们在生态系统服务方面有着特定的需求和要求。城市生态系统在许多方面受到人类活动的影响,其植物区系中包含了很高比例的外来植物物种,其中许多是有意引入的,以提供,增强或恢复ES。城市环境也有新的干扰制度,并提供殖民地的建立,分散和外来植物物种的增殖,这种情况下往往会产生生物入侵,可能会导致显着的变化ES。本文综述了外来植物在全球范围内提供城市ES和生态系统损害服务(EDS)中的作用。我们确定了与外来植物相关的主要ES和EDS,并强调了所涉及的关键物种。文献检索显示了335篇论文,代表了27个国家58个城市或城市地区的研究。这些研究记录了337种外来植物物种,有助于39个不同的ES和27 EDS-310种被记录为有助于ES和EDS的53种。少数外来植物类群经常被记录为在许多城市生态系统中提供多个ES;记录最多的10种物种占ES记录的21%。其中一些物种还导致显著的EDS;三个物种占所记录EDS的30%。文化服务(特别是美学)是发达国家城市地区外来植物提供的最多的环境服务,而供应服务(特别是食品生产)是发展中国家报告最多的。外来植物提供的EDS最常被研究的是对人类健康的影响(特别是过敏反应)。80%的外来植物和ES和EDS研究是在发达国家进行的。为了阐明外来植物的全部影响,在发展中国家还需要做更多的工作。城市规划者和管理者需要注意外来植物物种的积极和消极影响,以最大限度地提供ES。
Urban areas have unique assemblages of species which are governed by novel ecological processes. People living in these environments have specific needs and demands in terms of ecosystem services (ES). Urban ecosystems are transformed in many ways by human activities and their floras comprise a high proportion of alien plant species, many of which were intentionally introduced to provide, augment or restore ES. Urban environments also have novel disturbance regimes and provide colonization sites for the establishment, dispersal and proliferation of alien plant species; such conditions often generate biological invasions which may cause marked changes to ES. We review the roles that alien plants play in providing urban ES and ecosystem disservices (EDS) globally. We identify the main ES and EDS associated with alien plants, and highlight the key species involved. A literature search revealed 335 papers, representing studies in 58 cities or urban areas in 27 countries. These studies recorded 337 alien plant species, contributing to 39 different ES and 27 EDS–310 species were recorded as contributing to ES and 53 species to EDS. A small number of alien plant taxa were frequently recorded as providing multiple ES in many urban ecosystems; the 10 most recorded species accounted for 21% of the ES recorded. Some of these species also result in significant EDS; three species accounted for 30% of the EDS recorded. Cultural services (notably aesthetics) are the most reported ES provided by alien plants in urban areas of developed countries, while provisioning services (notably food production) are most reported in developing countries. The most commonly studied EDS provided by alien plants is the impact on human health (notably allergic reactions). Eighty percent of studies on alien plants and ES and EDS have been done in developed countries. To elucidate the full range of effects of alien plants, more work is needed in developing countries. Urban planners and managers need to be mindful of both the positive and negative impacts of alien plant species to maximise the provision of ES.
