Strengthening the link between IAS apps data and policy: Development of an appropriate governance framework - Preliminary results
Biological control can represent a viable option in certain contexts to combat invasive alien species. Despite of successful experiences, especially in plant protection against insects, concerns arise due to the potential risk posed by the introduced agents to the environment, particularly when imported from other continents.
Migratory fish corridors compensate the fragmentation of natural waterways due to the presence of human obstacles such as dams, dykes and locks.
We warmly welcome to EASIN Team Celia López Cañizares, who has recently joined JRC as a trainee, and will be working on Citizen Science, science and outreach communication.
The water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) is an invasive aquatic plant of Union Concern native to the Amazon River, introduced in Europe during the 20th century.
The development of new technologies such as smartphone applications can support the generation of citizens’ georeferenced records of Invasive Alien Species (IAS), and complement professional observations schemes.
EASIN GeoDatabase version 4.9 has been published online.
23 Marine taxonomists agreed on the "top-priority" marine invasive alien species expected to be introduced, invade and have a significant negative impact in the European Seas within the next 10 years.
Early detection of an invasive alien species is vital to apply effective eradication measures and avoid negative impacts in a given region to native biodiversity, or to ecosystem services that the environment can provide.
