Wakame (Undaria pinnatifida) is on the IUCN's list of the 100 "world's worst" invasive species! It's a major threat, known for displacing native seaweeds & clogging coastal infrastructure.
The #GuardIAS project is modelling its spread via offshore wind farms.

Horizon scanning is a successful, low-cost way to predict high risk invasive non-native species, a UKCEH-led study shows.
31 of 92 species identified in 2013 as a potential threat had reached GB by 2023, with 9 established. Regular horizon scanning can guide action & improve biosecurity.
