N2 - The non-profit organization NatureServe has developed a science based assessment for evaluating non-native plants for their impact on biodiversity. The NatureServe Protocol consists of a series of questions on the biology and management of a species that produces an invasive species Impact Rank (I-Rank). I-Ranks are comparable in concept to the conservation status ranks that NatureServe develops for native species and ecosystems. The aim of the assessment protocol is to make listing, evaluating, and ranking of non-native plants more transparent, objective, and systematic.
