AB Non-native tree (NNT) species have been transported worldwide to create or enhance services that are fundamentalfor human well-being, such as timber provision, erosion control or ornamental value; yet NNTs can also produceundesired effects, such as fire proneness or pollen allergenicity. Despite the variety of effects that NNTs have on multipleecosystem services, a global quantitative assessment of their costs and benefits is still lacking. Such information is criticalfor decision-making, management and sustainable exploitation of NNTs. We present here a global assessment of NNTeffects on the three main categories of ecosystem services, including regulating (RES), provisioning (PES) and culturalservices (CES), and on an ecosystem disservice (EDS), i.e. pollen allergenicity. By searching the scientific literature,country forestry reports, and social media, we compiled a global data set of 1683 case studies from over 125 NNTspecies, covering 44 countries, all continents but Antarctica, and seven biomes. Using different meta-analysis techniques,we found that, while NNTs increase most RES (e.g. climate regulation, soil erosion control, fertility and formation),they decrease PES (e.g. NNTs contribute less than native trees to global timber provision). Also, they have differenteffects on CES (e.g. increase aesthetic values but decrease scientific interest), and no effect on the EDS considered.NNT effects on each ecosystem (dis)service showed a strong context dependency, varying across NNT types, biomesand socio-economic conditions. For instance, some RES are increased more by NNTs able to fix atmospheric nitrogen,and when the ecosystem is located in low-latitude biomes; some CES are increased more by NNTs in less-wealthycountries or in countries with higher gross domestic products. The effects of NNTs on several ecosystem (dis)servicesexhibited some synergies (e.g. among soil fertility, soil formation and climate regulation or between aesthetic valuesand pollen allergenicity), but also trade-offs (e.g. between fire regulation and soil erosion control). Our analyses providea quantitative understanding of the complex synergies, trade-offs and context dependencies involved for the effects ofNNTs that is essential for attaining a sustained provision of ecosystem services.
