The InvasiBES team investigated the consistency of invasive species' risk assessments
We used data from 1,742 impact assessments 😯of 60 terrestrial, freshwater and marine IAS
We found:
1⃣ High consistency across assessments (67%!!)👍
2⃣ Variability across individual species 👍

🗨️"The results are encouraging [...] in the face of the worrying forecasts of increasing #BiologicalInvasions & their damages."
New paper in our journal confirms the reliability of #IAS impact assessments tools.

What does this mean?
@RBernardoMadrid "These results are encouraging as they suggest that IAS risk assessment protocols are valid to support decision making in the face of worrying forecasts of increasing biological invasions and their damages" 🤓

We're reaching the end of this fantastic IAS project, and excited to share some of the outcomes with you all....
As well as threatening wildlife, invasive alien species are estimated to cost economic damage of at least €12.5 billion a year in Europe.

Native #biodiversity can be negatively or positively affected by alien species; however the existing EICAT scheme only assesses negative impacts. The proposed new EICAT scheme enables positive impacts to be categorized @InvasiBES #PLOSBiology plos.io/3A5vfAK
