 <title>Identifying and managing areas under threat in the Iberian Peninsula: An invasion risk atlas for non-native aquatic plant species as a potential tool.</title>
 <description><![CDATA[<p>Rodr&iacute;guez-Merino A (2023) Identifying and managing areas under threat in the Iberian Peninsula: An invasion risk atlas for non-native aquatic plant species as a potential tool. <em>Plants</em> <strong>12</strong>, 3069. <a href="https://doi.org/10.3390/plants12173069">https://doi.org/10.3390/plants12173069</a></p><p><br></p><p>Predicting the likelihood that non-native species will be introduced into new areas remains one of conservation&rsquo;s greatest challenges and, consequently, it is necessary to adopt adequate management measures to mitigate the effects of future biological invasions. At present, not much information is available on the areas in which non-native aquatic plant species could establish themselves in the Iberian Peninsula. Species distribution models were used to predict the potential invasion risk of (1) non-native aquatic plant species already established in the peninsula (32 species) and (2) those with the potential to invade the peninsula (40 species). The results revealed that the Iberian Peninsula contains a number of areas capable of hosting non-native aquatic plant species. Areas under anthropogenic pressure are at the greatest risk of invasion, and the variable most related to invasion risk is temperature. The results of this work were used to create the Invasion Risk Atlas for Alien Aquatic Plants in the Iberian Peninsula, a novel online resource that provides information about the potential distribution of non-native aquatic plant species. The atlas and this article are intended to serve as reference tools for the development of public policies, management regimes, and control strategies aimed at the prevention, mitigation, and eradication of non-native aquatic plant species. </p>]]></description>
