Moustiques tigres, frelons asiatiques, plantes exotiques… 🦟🐝🌱 Les espèces envahissantes peuvent occasionner des dégâts écologiques et sanitaires importants. L'écologue Céline Bellard les étudie pour tenter d'anticiper et limiter leurs impacts dans le futur.

New paper out! We present a framework for quantifying the vulnerability of terrestrial insular biota to multiple threats. This is the first output of the #RIVAGE project, funded by @frbiodiv.bsky.social & brilliantly led by @celinebellard.bsky.social. peercommunityjournal.org/articles/10....

Understanding biological invasions through the lens of environmental niches

Understanding successful invasions across taxa and systems in a unified framework is a central goal of biological conservation. While the environmental niche is a promising concept to improve our understanding of biological invasions, existing studies…

To downplay the impacts of alien species, some people claim "native invaders" cause as much disruption. Native species can become superabundant & damaging (when triggered by disturbance) but alien species are far more likely to be a cause of global extinction: redpath-staff.mcgill.ca/ricciardi/Bl...

Comment évaluer la vulnérabilité des vertébrés terrestres face aux invasions biologiques ?

Les vertébrés terrestres sont exposés aux espèces exotiques envahissantes sur plus d’1/3 de la surface terrestre mondiale&nbs

For instance for birds (the best informed vertebrate group), areas of high confidence in vulnerability to biological invasions are limited to small patches in North America and South East Australia

*Don’t trade off #carbon for #biodiversity* The scientific consensus is clear: we cannot address climate change by industrialising the biosphere. #Climate solutions must protect ecosystem integrity and support biodiversity, not compromise them for carbon gains.🌎 theconversation.com/the-climate-...

The climate and biodiversity crises are entwined, but we risk pitting one against the other

In our race to cool the planet, we must not compromise the ecosystems on which we depend.
