Hurdles and opportunities in implementing marine biosecurity systems in data-po...
Carvalho, Susana; Shchepanik, Hailey; Aylagas, Eva; Berumen, Michael L.; Costa, Filipe O.; Costello, Mark John; Duarte, Sofia Alexandra FerreiraManaging marine nonindigenous species (mNIS) is challenging, because marine environments are highly connected, allowing the dispersal of species across large spatial scales, including geopolitical borders. Cross-border inconsistencies in biosecurity management can promote the spread of mNIS across geopolitical borders, and incursions often go unnoticed or unreported. Collaborative surveillance programs can enha...
Consistency of impact assessment protocols for non-native species
González-Moreno, Pablo; Lazzaro, Lorenzo; Vilà, Montserrat; Preda, Cristina; Adriaens, Tim; Bacher, Sven; Brundu, Giuseppe; Copp, Gordon H.; Essl, FranzStandardized tools are needed to identify and prioritize the most harmful non-native species (NNS). A plethora of assessment protocols have been developed to evaluate the current and potential impacts of non-native species, but consistency among them has received limited attention. To estimate the consistency across impact assessment protocols, 89 specialists in biological invasions used 11 protocols to screen ...

Indicator-Based Assessment of Marine Biological Diversity–Lessons from 10 Case ...
Uusitalo, Laura; Blanchet, Hugues; Andersen, Jesper H.; Beauchard, Olivier; Berg, Torsten; Bianchelli, Silvia; Cantafaro, Annalucia; Carstensen, JacobThe Marine Strategy Framework Directive requires the environmental status of European marine waters to be assessed using biodiversity as 1 out of 11 descriptors, but the complexity of marine biodiversity and its large span across latitudinal and salinity gradients have been a challenge to the scientific community aiming to produce approaches for integrating information from a broad range of indicators. The Nest...
