Notes de l'éditeur
- All this political momentus is also causing that the general public is also more and more aware of the problem, that generates even more interest by the politicians. Photo by Marcin Wysmulek (Poland), obtained through stock.xchng (www.sxc.hu)
- Some predictions on how the richness in biodiversity is forecasted to decline in all the usable and less usuable biomes for human sustainance. MSA: Mean species abundance, an indicator of naturalness or biodiversity intactness. It is defined as the mean abundance of original species relative to their abundance in undisturbed ecosystems. An area with an MSA of 100% means a biodiversity that is similar to the natural situation. An MSA of 0% means a completely destructed ecosystem, with no original species remaining.
- We all know about the biodiversity crisis that we are suffering, although the real scope of it is still to be known. There ’ s great international momentum regarding biodiversity conservation and use, and there is great potential to further the work that we are all doing in the scope of GBIF.
- So what ’ s the role of GBIF in this context? In the new Strategic Plan of GBIF, its mission is thefined as “ to be the foremost global resource for biodiversity information, and engender smart solutions for environmental and human well-being ” . To achieve this objective (in other cases phrased as the sustainable management and use of the world ’ s biodiversity), the most common pathway is that primary biodiversity data is managed by publishers that produce content that flows through the GBIF Network, that is processed by scientists and technicians to produce scientific articles and reports, that are used later on to define policies that will (hopefully) take us to a better future. Data being useful in this chain are the ones that garantees that we can continue mobilising more data and producing more science. Counting with limited resources, we have to make sure that we invest them wisely so we accomplhish these objectives and ensure the sustainability of the process.
- Currently majority of our Participants lack data discovery and mobilisation strategies. It is essential that countries have strategies in alignment with their overall NBSAP (National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan). It is only then BIFs will become integral part of social, and political progress of biodiversity science at national, regional and global scale. However, as stated by Penny Berents and colleagues, currently we lack best practice guidelines to develop demand-driven action plans.
- How are we going to estimate the effects of climate change on agriculture unless we’re going to wait for it to happen? Past changes are not really a good estimator. The little ice age starting in 1450 or thereabouts was a major event, completely changing the life styles and agriculture in Europe. It is piddling compared with what we are likely to see in the next 20 to 50 years. We must therefore rely on modeling situations that we have never before seen.

- Actual progress of invasion of this species … red = new counties, blue = keeping the tally Click and you see the comparison … NOTE THAT THE SPECIES invaded in NA ONLY out to the limits of its SE Asian ecological potential
