The ongoing Black Sea Bio-Optical Cruise supported by the European Space Agency (ESA), led by the Joint Research Center (JRC), and performed onboard the Akademik Research Vessel of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, focusses on satellite ocean color validation activities but also aims at supporting investigations on alien phyto- and zooplankton marine species.
The solitary ascidian Microcosmus exasperatus (Class: Ascidiacea, Family: Pyuridae) is reported for the first time from Cyprus, found forming aggregations on ropes in a marina and on the hull of a ship; both molecular and morphological diagnostics are provided.
About 130 European scientists and managers gathered at the European workshop on Control and Eradication of Invasive Alien Plant Species, organised by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) Hungary in Budapest from 19-21 April 2016, to share experiences regarding the control of invasive alien plants.
The workshop and meeting took place in Lisbon, 18-21 April 2016
A new publication on alien insects in Europe, investigating long-term changes in rates of spread following establishment, using EASIN and DAISIE datasets has been published.
The EASIN Team is glad to announce that the new EASIN website has been launched
EASIN was presented at the WS as “one-stop-shop” information system on alien species occurring in Europe, in support to scientist research and to the implementation of Reg. 1143/2014 on IAS.
