🔎 The big picture of OneSTOP comes alive in a newly released project video! 🎞️ The video offers a short overview of OneSTOP’s objectives and methodology, as well as the project’s planned results and activities. 👉 Watch it now: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bl6E... #IAS #BioInvasions

🌎 Amidst #LivingData2025, we are introducing Obama nungara, the Obama Flatworm. 🪱 This #InvasiveAlienSpecies is a predator that kills and consumes native earthworms and land snails. 👉 Its introduction can potentially lead to drastic alterations in soil dynamics, impacting the health of ecosystems.

Our PI @jrvicente.bsky.social will speak at the “Forests and Fires: What Future?” Conference! 📅 3 Nov 2025 | ⏰ 10:00–12:30 (CET) 📍 ESA–IPVC, Prof. Eugénio Castro Caldas Auditorium Join the experts to discuss the future of forests and fires! 🌳🔥 More info 👇 #Forests #Fires #Sustainability

👀 Our next #InvasiveAlienSpecies is Neogale vison, the American Mink. 🟢 It is a direct competitor with many native EU species that share its ecological niche, such as the European mink, Pyrenean desman, and Water vole 🪱It is also known to be a carrier of pathogens #UnionConcernSpecies #IASinEurope

🪸 Meet a new #InvasiveAlienSpecies, Nanozostera japonica, the Japanese Eelgrass. 🐚 It displaces native seagrass, affecting local shellfish communities. ⚪ Its faster decomposition rate compared to native seagrasses also alters the decomposer community and productivity dynamics in the tidal zone.

👉 Our next #InvasiveAlienSpecies is Misgurnus bipartitus, the Northern Weatherfish 🌊 It directly competes with the native protected species M. fossilis in the EU, potentially leading to its extinction and disrupting the ecosystem 🪱 It's a carrier of pathogens and may hybridise with native fish

🔎 Today we are focusing on Mulinia lateralis, the Dwarf Surfclam. 🐚 This #InvasiveAlienSpecies, with high fecundity, has the potential to alter benthic communities and influence the food web. #IASinEurope #BioInvasions #UnionConcernSpecies

🌿Last week @jrvicente.bsky.social presented OneSTOP at Porto Business School!

🌿 Our PI @jrvicente.bsky.social presented the @onestop-project.eu at Porto Business School, highlighting CamAlien, AMITrap and Air-DNA and the importance of collaboration for tackling biological invasions! #InvasionS #Technology #Biologicalnvasions

🌿 This past month, we hosted PhD student Gorgias Aikpon (Univ. of Abomey-Calavi, Benin)! His PhD explores the ecology, distribution & management of two invasive plants: Jack in the Bush and Pignut. During his stay, he developed species distribution models to predict their potential distributions. 🗺️

Out website is out!!! Hope you like it :)

Up we go! Mapping invasive species from above! 🚁🌿

🌿 Data collection in action! With technical support from FIREMAP, we now have new high-resolution data! This will contribute to a new management plan for the Paisagem Protegida Regional do Litoral de Vila do Conde and the Reserva Ornitológica de Mindelo. 🌱📡 #InvasiveSpecies #RemoteSensing #LiDAR

🌍 #WorldEnvironmentDay reminder: Floating plastic = travel platform for invasive species 🐚🌊 Land litter, fishing gear, and plastic waste all contribute to their spread. Fewer plastics in the sea = lower invasion risk. Let’s protect our oceans! #plasticpollution #invasivespecies

Today on the #InternationalDayforBiologicalDiversity we were at the Paisagem Protegida Regional do Litoral de Vila do Conde and at Reserva Ornitológica de Mindelo mapping invasive species. The data will support a new management plan to help protect local biodiversity! 🌱🌿
