🔥 New paper out! Led by @cristinaglima.bsky.social and published in @biolinvasions.bsky.social 🌿

We explored how fire & landscape susceptibility shape Acacia dealbata invasion in Portugal using a STELLA dynamic model.

5/ The dispersal patterns, colonization dynamics, and impacts of this global biological invasion can be explained using the same ecoevolutionary models, theories, and concepts developed for invasive species in general. #invasionscience #bioinvasions

It was a great experience to contribute to this series! 🚀

If you're working on a hypothesis in invasion science, why not add your voice? Consider submitting to the series and help shape the conversation! 🌱🔬 #InvasionScience
Last year, our #openscience journal: @riojournal.com launched #Hypothesis Description as a novel article type to facilitate the study of #scientific hypotheses, while improving their testability, and encouraging efforts towards #standardisation & #automation.

One hopes that the informed are using this advent to collect and remove highly invasive Central American black spiny-tailed iguanas from the Florida environments they have overrun.

🌍🕸️ New preprint led by the brilliant Fiona Rickowski!

We explore how social-ecological networks can transform our understanding & management of biological invasions. From pathways to impacts to action — it's time to connect the dots!

Ending my Bsky takeover a little early, as I'm attending a state outreach event on Tapinoma magnum titled 'Small Ants, Big Challenge'. #Politics is never far from #invasionscience.

Follow me at @garybugsyou.bsky.social for some of that later, plus more action from my #frontiers project. #scicomm

I think we are ready to formally establish alt-[discipline]s.

Basically any field where contrarians endlessly cite themselves, constructing a self-sustaining research bubble based on their own revisionist takes.

🌱 Do photosynthetic pathways shape invasion risk? In Hawaii, #C4 grasses show the greatest range expansion under #climatechange, especially at low elevations, while C3 groups decline or shift, highlighting pathway-based insights for #invasionscience.

Are you passionate about #invasionscience? Do you want to support early career researchers and get to meet other invasion scientists in the UK and abroad?

If so, please consider to join the SIG committee. We have a few roles to fill, including a chair, a treasurer, an events rep, and an ECR rep.
