Existing open-access river barrier databases fall far short for fisheries and biodiversity management needs in south Asian transboundary rivers - Hydrobiologia
Anthropogenic river barriers modify flow, degrade river habitat and disrupt the movement of fish and other aquatic animals. Several global river barrier databases (e.g. Global Dam Watch) have been dev...

The global species extinction rate is 10 to 100 times higher than the historical average, accelerating due to human actions, as noted in the @‌ipbes.net #GlobalAssessment. 🏭 Since 1500, at least 680 vertebrate species, like the Pinta Giant Tortoise, have been lost.🐢

I’m excited to share my research article, published in People and Nature!! 🌿We found that water hyacinth reduces crop yields and drives destructive fishing practices—yet after 100+ years, locals see it as “natural.” #InvasionEcology #Wetlands besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Our latest research on the conservation challenges of vulnerable freshwater turtles has just been published in AQC!
We explored how agriculture and aquaculture expansion are destroying turtle breeding habitats, posing a major threat to their survival.

Caspian Sea level decline is a rapidly developing crisis for biodiversity and people, with global implications. This satellite image timeline 2001-24 is encapsulated by the media headlines. A recent publication from our international team gives the full story 🌍🧪🦑

‘Biodiversity is not declining’ is a claim you may have heard. But science says otherwise. 📉

The @ipbes.net #GlobalAssessment reveals 1 million plant & animal species are at risk of extinction. Misinformation clouds the crisis.

Rely on trusted research to understand our shared challenges. 🌍🧪
