The Optimal Control of Biological Invasions with Heterogeneous Intensity

This paper investigates the impact of heterogeneous intensity in the optimal control of invasive species. By simulating a spatial dynamic optimal control model with eradication and suppression decision variables we find that the intensity of an invasion, as well as the carrying capacity of the landscape, are both important factors that should be taken into account when control decisions are being made.
