Our invasive species research focuses on creating biosecurity frameworks to monitor non-indigenous species (NIS) and assess their ecological impacts in marine ecosystems.
Observations and experiments (in situ as well as in the lab) to support the development of regulations and help guide management actions to minimize negative impacts stemming from anthropogenic actions such as coastal development, point-source pollution, or global stressors such as climate change.
Investigate the intricate relationships between biodiversity and ecosystem function using integrated and standardized approaches. This research advances understanding of mechanistic processes, service provision, and economic valuation, providing essential insights for effective ecosystem management.
This project aims to develop comprehensive biosecurity frameworks to monitor and manage marine invasive species in Saudi waters.
