The reviewer crisis: data from the journal Biological Invasions:
"Reviewer acceptance rates dropped steadily over the past two decades. Early-career researchers had the highest acceptance rates, while senior scholars were least likely to accept review invitations."

A moment to remember! The #ICMBXII community gathered together in Madeira — researchers, students, and practitioners united by a shared passion for #marine #bioinvasions.
The conference isn’t over yet — more sessions, discussions, and connections are still to come!
Now it is time for Graeme Inglis (shorturl.at/YL91M) speaking about marine surveillance technologies to detect non-indigenous species. Early detection, effectiveness, limits,etc. And national delimiting surveys of Pyura doppelgangera (shorturl.at/5mBVM) happening in New Zealand since 2007! #ICMBXII

🔝 talks describing patterns of marine introduced species detected using eDNA and sedaDNA metabarcoding by the @ceabcsic.bsky.social members today at the @marinebioinvasions.bsky.social conference during the ‘Genetic surveillance’ session. Well done CEAB team! 😀🧬🦀🪼🐙🐟

High predation pressure on sessile non-indigenous species (mostly ascidians) in the tropics. Amazing video of fish predation.#ICMB2025

Comencem el 2025 apareixent a "elpuntavui" 👏💫🗞️
En Marc Rius i l'Eugènia Martí, director i vicedirectora del #CEAB, ens expliquen de primera mà la recerca que fem en ecosistemes aquàtics i com afrontem reptes com el canvi climàtic i l’impacte humà 👀👇
www.elpuntavui.cat/societat/art...
Us convidem a recòrrer la exposició “Espècies invasores marines, l’amenaça silenciosa” 🔝
La propera visita la farà en Marc Rius, director i investigador del #CEAB 👨🔬
📅 23/01, a les 17.30
📍 Museu Maritim a #Barcelona
Us hi esperem! 🐙

🔬 Un estudio liderado por #CEAB @csic.es detecta en aguas gallegas una nueva especie exótica con potencial invasor ⚠️
🌍 Se trata del tunicado de origen africano 'Pyura herdmani', una ascidia capaz de formar grandes agregados.
📰 bit.ly/3Co7nNQ
'Pyura herdmani' puede formar grandes agregados, desplazando especies nativas y alterando ecosistemas marinos 🌊
👉 Especies similares han causado problemas económicos, como la colonización de cultivos de mejillones, tan importantes en las #RíasBaixas

Tot l'equip del CEAB volem expresar el nostre més sincer condol per la pèrdua del Dr. Enric “Kike” Ballesteros.
Destacat biòleg i ecòleg, reconegut a nivell internacional per les seves aportacions a la ciència i per la ferma defensa de la conservació de la natura.
Et trobarem a faltar 🖤
Acabo de visitar una exposición muy interesante sobre especies invasoras marinas montada por @ceabcsic.bsky.social en el Museu Marítim de Barcelona. Muy recomendable.
