Invasive Species - What does it mean?

What exactly are invasive species? An invasive species basically describes a species (for the time being it really doesn't matter if we are talking about a plant or an animal) that appears in a geographic location where it usually did not appear. But: To qualify as "invasive" the species also has to have a negative effect on the local environment. --> IF a species is freshly appearing in a new location but does not cause any negative effects in that location it is considered an "introduced species" For a lot more detail on what exactly an invasive and/or introduced species is make sure to check back on the video below!

Getting Ready again

INDEPENDENT RESEARCH AT SEA

With Many Marine Biologists out there driven by the passion for the Ocean, dedication and Inspiration we want to try a new approach of Research at Sea. While Research Ships are hard to get a hold of and expensive to run we offer a platform on a budget! The Idea is simple: The big problem for most projects is the funding. With the simple Idea of making the Oceans a healthier place and research affordable (and possibly even sustain ones living while doing it), we run our constant Pa treon Page via which everyone can support us. Those donations should keep the boat going (at some stage) and the crew fed. This way we can offer spots for researchers on a shoestring budget or even free - depending on your funding situation - we are obviously happy to help you set up a crowdfunding campaign to raise funds for a project as well - just send us a proposal and get in touch to have a chat about it. For everyone else who wants to get involved on board and
