Regional Euro-Asian Biological Invasions Centre (REABIC) information system

At present REABIC is serving as an independent virtual data centre for applied research and

management of invasive species focusing on the Euro-Asian region and providing online services

for interested stakeholders.


REABIC as an important part of the developing distributed EU information system on invasive

species
