At the beginning of September, many researchers from our Division attended the 13th International Conference on Biological Invasions (NEOBIOTA) in Lisbon. This conference featured more than 400 participants, with three parallel sessions each day and loads of interesting research.
The researchers present from our group and their respective research were:
- Franz Essl: oral presentation “A new perspective on the biogeography and macroecology of biological invasions in the Anthropocene”
- Adrián García-Rodriguez: oral presentation “The global environmental impacts of invasive alien chytrid fungi on amphibians”
- Ali Omer: poster presentation “Invasion risk of alien flora in Southern Africa may decline under climate change”
- Fabio Mologni: poster presentation “Collating existing evidence on cumulative impacts of invasive plant species in riparian ecosystems of British Columbia, Canada”
- Lisa Tedeschi: oral presentation “A synthesis on alien mammals threatened in their native range”
- Anna Schertler: oral presentation “Biogeographically novel and co-xenic novel associations are common in alien fungal and fungus-like plant pathogens”
- Tom Vorstenbosch: oral presentation “The shrubification of the Antarctic: Increases in invasive woody plant species under climate change on islands in the Southern Ocean”
- Gilles Colling: poster presentation “Ninety years of alien plant species accumulation across regional and local scales in central European fields”
- Ekin Kaplan: poster presentation “Assessing the trajectories of local plant community change: A literature review”
The presentations from our group members.
