Correcting environmental sampling bias improves transferability of species distribution models
Sampling bias is an inherent problem in widely available biodiversity data, undermining the robustness of correlative species distribution models (SDMs). To some extent, subsampling occurrence data c....

The loss of megafauna over the last 50,000 years has caused ecological theories to be based on already-degraded ecosystems.

It finally happened: my future #student #mentee asked me about my paper that I led and #published years ago (my first first-author paper), only to apologise that I forgot what I did in that #paper, nor do I have a copy of it in my computerS (it is under paywall).

🙀 How severe are #bioinvasions in protected areas? 🌱🌍
In our latest study, we used EICAT to uncover the severity and mechanisms of these impacts. Tools like EICAT are essential for understanding these challenges and driving effective conservation efforts. #InvasiveSpecies

Aquaculture is an important activity sector for many countries. Unfortunately, it can also be the source of #bioinvasions. Focusing on crustaceans, our last paper presents a very simple framework to limit these invasions:
