🚨NEW PAPER ALERT🚨

In this @globalchangebio.bsky.social study we used 1327 time series of freshwater macroinvertebrate communities across Europe to investigate whether dispersal capacity changes with the ecological quality of rivers. @sgn.one

Feeling so grateful for an unforgettable week in Girona, surrounded by brilliant and inspiring scientists. Can’t wait to continue collaborating on our projects! 😄
InvaPact III workshop is now over: WHAT A WEEK! ~60 experts from 30 countries putting their brainpower together for an unique collaborative project.
Work hard, play hard: they really followed my motto!
Powerful publications on the way!

Painful to see how our comprehensive, interdisciplinary review on the dangers of comparing biological #invasions to human migration was misinterpreted and decontextualized. We share the same vision, and urge for discussion rather than villainization.

Below our response.

Check out our new paper on potentially #invasive loaches led by @canobarbacil.bsky.social. Loaches are cool creatures - especially the native weatherfish Misgurnus fossilis, a 'farting' #fish. Great work Carlos!
