What's wrong with alien species in Europe?
The European Environment Agency (EEA) has published two reports focusing on IAS impact and relevant indicators:
- The impacts of invasive alien species in Europe >>>
- Invasive alien species indicators in Europe - a review of Streamlining European Biodiversity (SEBI) Indicator 10 >>> Both reports have been realised by a multinational team of experts in collaboration with the IUCN/SSC Invasive Species Specialist Group (ISSG), in the context of the continued support provided to the European Commission in its efforts to develop an EU legislative instrument to deal with the problem of biological invasions.
