🦟 #INNSWeek. Warmer temperatures speed up invasive mosquitoes cycle and extend their activity, creating favourable conditions for e.g. Aedes japonicus and A. koreicus. Monitoring projects like ALIEM VIGIL track their spread. 👉🔗 bit.ly/4vWhCiy 🔗bit.ly/4uHAAZa

In March, B-Cubed organised a workshop on indicators of #IAS
🌿The workshop brought together researchers from different countries and institutions to exchange and discuss hands-on experiences in applying and reporting on IAS indicators.

👉 Simulation studies mimic real-world scenarios and allow researchers to study biodiversity trends without distributing ecosystems.
💡 With #gcube you can create a simulation framework for biodiversity data yourself!
