Abstract Cross-border neighboring areas could be particularly vulnerable to biological invasions due short geographic distances and frequent interactions, although the invasion risk remains unevaluated worldwide. Here, based on global datasets of distributions established alien vertebrates as well vectors introduction establishment, we show that more than one-third world’s transboundary are facing high vertebrates, especially in Europe, North America, South Asia, Southeast Asia. The most important predictors establishment bilateral trade, habitat disturbance richness vertebrates. Interestingly, found border fences may have limited effects reducing risk, only 7.9% spatially overlap with hotspots even Eurasia (13.7% overlap) where physical barriers mainly located. We therefore recommend implementation immediate proactive prevention control measures cope cross-border response continued globalization.

The 2022 United Nations (UN) Biodiversity Conference of the Parties (COP) to UN Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) recognized for first-time 'inland waters' as a distinct realm in terms setting targets and process monitoring conserving them their biodiversity.It is common environmentalists environmental scholars bemoan things that they care about, but have been forgotten, ignored, or excluded when it comes decisions, development policy.Often those concerns focus specific taxonomic group species, locality, particular decision, regional national policy.However, rarely do an entire occurs around globe.By 'realm' we are referring terrestrial, freshwater, marine ecosystems.Equally important, some key messages Kunming-Montreal GBF were picked up at Water March 2023, first such meetings almost 50 years, which commits global water action agenda restore protect freshwater ecosystems component sustainable development.Here, draw attention CBD included language recognizes inland waters own merits (i.e., realm) within Global Framework (GBF) [1] was submitted by President COP 15, held Montreal, December 18, 2022.Previously, inherently-and our opinion, mistakenly-considered part terrestrial realm.Concerns existed about lack 2011-2020 Aichi Targets [2].These redressed recognizing need move beyond reference simply 'land sea,' place more biodiversity.In particular, now explicitly focused two text from Target 2 3).Target 2: Ensure 2030 least 30 percent areas degraded water, coastal under effective restoration, order enhance biodiversity ecosystem functions services, ecological integrity connectivity.

Abstract In the Anthropocene, non-native freshwater fish introductions and translocations have occurred extensively worldwide. However, their global distribution patterns factors influencing establishment remain poorly understood. We analyze a comprehensive database of 14953 species across 3119 river basins identify hotspots for exotic translocated fishes. show that both types fishes are more likely to occur when closely related native This finding is consistent measures phylogenetic relatedness, biogeographical realms, highly invaded countries, even after accounting influence diversity. contradicts Darwin’s naturalization hypothesis, suggesting presence close relatives often signifies suitable habitats than intensified competition, predicting species. Our study provides assessment correlates, laying groundwork understanding future invasions in ecosystems.

Abstract Reservoirs play a critical role in the global water cycle by regulating flow of from environment into human systems. Accurate estimation area‐storage‐depth relationships for reservoirs is essential effective hydrological modeling and reservoir storage monitoring. Bathymetry reconstruction presents promising approach to derive this information. Current bathymetry methods either rely on simple approximations or are constrained dependence altimetry data field survey data. To overcome these limitations, study pioneering involving training deep learning model reconstruct establish precise relationships. We trained with approximately 160,000 simulated derived Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) fine‐tuned based hundreds By employing SRTM, 7,250 Global Reservoir Dam Database were subsequently reconstructed. The method validated against comprehensive reference sets, including 54 test data, 118 satellite altimetry‐based reservoirs, 68 LiDAR‐based reservoirs. reconstructed achieves mean absolute error 7.87 m +2.05 validation references significantly outperforms previous geometric approximation techniques, median normalized root square (NRMSE) values 20.6% area‐storage 22.1% area‐level curves. Additionally, variations estimated precision, outperforming methods. proposed learning‐based robust solution accurate establishes more reliable worldwide.
