EICAT is an IUCN global standard for measuring the severity of environmental impacts caused by alien taxa. Find out more below! #invasionbiology #alienspecies #biodiversity #IUCN Sabrina Kumschick Helen Roy SvenBacher Papik_genovesi Kevin Smith youtu.be/7GAax3xakJs
Twelve impact mechanisms have been identified by which alien taxa may cause deleterious impacts in areas to which they have been introduced. Find out more in the IUCN EICAT categories and criteria document: doi.org/10.2305/IUCN.C… Sabrina Kumschick Kevin Smith Belinda Gallardo IUCN
