<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Anche quest’anno, il progetto <strong>LIFE RESQUE ALPYR</strong> ha partecipato alla <strong>Nit del CEAB</strong>, una giornata dedicata ad avvicinare la scienza al grande pubblico e a far conoscere da vicino la ricerca condotta per comprendere, proteggere e ripristinare l’ambiente naturale.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">L’evento si è svolto il <strong>25 settembre presso il Centro di Studi Avanzati di Blanes (CEAB-CSIC)</strong> e quest’anno è stato dedicato alla <strong>conservazione e al ripristino degli ecosistemi</strong>, con il motto <strong>«La conoscenza al servizio della natura»</strong>.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">La serata è iniziata presso l’Auditorium Enric “Kike” Ballesteros con un’introduzione ai principali concetti, interrogativi e sfide legati alla conservazione e al ripristino dell’ambiente naturale. Successivamente, le attività si sono spostate sulla terrazza del Centro, dove i partecipanti hanno potuto conoscere diversi progetti di ricerca, prendere parte ad attività di divulgazione scientifica e dialogare direttamente con i gruppi di ricerca.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Tra i progetti partecipanti figurava <strong>LIFE RESQUE ALPYR</strong>, che opera per conservare e ripristinare gli ecosistemi acquatici di alta montagna dei Pirenei e delle Alpi e proteggere la biodiversità che ospitano. Attraverso diverse azioni sul territorio, il progetto mira a contrastare alcuni degli impatti che minacciano questi ecosistemi e a favorirne il recupero.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">L’attività proposta da <strong>LIFE RESQUE ALPYR</strong> ha avvicinato il pubblico alla realtà degli ecosistemi acquatici di alta montagna e alle sfide che devono affrontare. Attraverso il contatto diretto con il team del progetto, i partecipanti hanno potuto scoprire perché è necessario ripristinare questi habitat, quali azioni sono attualmente in corso e in che modo la ricerca scientifica contribuisce a orientarne il recupero e la conservazione.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">La partecipazione alla <strong>Nit del CEAB</strong> è stata quindi un’opportunità per avvicinare questo lavoro al grande pubblico e mostrare come le conoscenze scientifiche possano tradursi in azioni concrete di conservazione e ripristino sul territorio, esemplificando il motto che ha guidato l’edizione di quest’anno: <strong>«La conoscenza al servizio della natura»</strong>.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In un’atmosfera coinvolgente e partecipativa, i presenti hanno potuto porre domande, condividere dubbi e riflettere insieme sulle sfide ambientali attuali e future, nonché sul ruolo che la scienza può svolgere nel dare loro una risposta.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Rimuovere i pesci da un lago d&#8217;alta montagna, installare recinzioni in una torbiera o ripristinare lo sfalcio tradizionale di un prato umido sono interventi che possono suscitare domande tra le persone che visitano o vivono vicino alle aree naturali. Perché vengono realizzati? Qual è il loro impatto sulla biodiversità? E come sappiamo che siano le azioni più appropriate?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Un articolo recentemente pubblicato sulla rivista scientifica <em><a href="https://doi.org/10.1553/eco.mont-18-2s44" data-type="link" data-id="https://doi.org/10.1553/eco.mont-18-2s44">Eco.Mont – Journal on Protected Mountain Areas Research and Management</a></em> aiuta a rispondere a queste domande. Il lavoro riassume il contesto ecologico del progetto, le principali sfide per la conservazione degli ecosistemi acquatici d&#8217;alta montagna e le azioni che <strong>LIFE RESQUE ALPYR</strong> sta sviluppando per ripristinarli.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Ecosistemi unici ma vulnerabili</strong></h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Laghi, torbiere e prati umidi d&#8217;alta quota sono tra gli ecosistemi più singolari d&#8217;Europa. Pur occupando superfici limitate, ospitano una biodiversità altamente specializzata, adattata a condizioni ambientali difficili e spesso estreme.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Negli ultimi decenni questi habitat hanno subito numerose pressioni. Una delle più importanti è stata l&#8217;introduzione di pesci in laghi che storicamente ne erano privi. La presenza di trote e vaironi ha alterato le reti trofiche naturali e ha provocato effetti significativi su anfibi e invertebrati acquatici.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Allo stesso tempo, il sovrapascolo, l&#8217;abbandono dello sfalcio tradizionale e l&#8217;espansione del bosco nelle zone umide hanno contribuito al progressivo degrado di torbiere e prati umidi di elevato valore ecologico.</p>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Più che ripristinare gli habitat</strong></h3>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">L&#8217;articolo evidenzia un concetto fondamentale: restaurare un ecosistema non significa soltanto proteggere le specie che vi abitano. Significa ricostruire le relazioni ecologiche che lo mantengono vivo.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Diversi studi precedenti dimostrano che il recupero delle comunità acquatiche può produrre effetti positivi che vanno oltre i laghi stessi, favorendo specie che dipendono dagli insetti associati a questi ecosistemi, come alcuni pipistrelli insettivori o il desmano dei Pirenei.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Sebbene i risultati finali del progetto saranno presentati nei prossimi mesi, questa pubblicazione consente di comprendere meglio le domande che hanno dato origine a <strong>LIFE RESQUE ALPYR </strong>e le basi scientifiche che sostengono ciascuna delle sue azioni.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Il progetto <strong>LIFE RESQUE APYR</strong> ha partecipato alla seconda conferenza di Biologia della Conservazione per Early Career Researchers tenutasi tra il 6 e il 10 maggio 2025 presso L’Aquila con due delle nostre dottorande.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Giorgia Mattioli</strong>, dell’Università di Pavia, ha presentato un poster illustrando le dinamiche di eradicazione dei pesci alieni da 15 laghi delle Alpi italiane, 4 già eradicati dal progetto LIFE BIOAQUAE e i restanti 11 trattati dell’attuale progetto LIFE RESQUE ALPYR. Grazie alla combinazione di diversi metodi meccanici (nasse, transetti di reti, pesca ed elettropesca), che preservano la fauna nativa dei laghi, si può ottenere la diminuzione della densità di popolazione dei pesci introdotti nei laghi fino alla loro completa eradicazione. Tenendo conto della complessità ed unicità dei singoli laghi, questi dati possono servire come guida per future azioni di restauro ecologico di laghi d’alta quota che si trovano in condizioni simili.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Lucia Bello</strong>, dell&#8217;Università della Calabria, ha invece contribuito con una presentazione orale sugli effetti cross-ecosistema indotti dai pesci alieni su diversi gruppi di insettivori legati ai laghi di alta quota. I laghi d’alta quota possono rappresentare importanti fonti di prede per gli svariati predatori insettivori semi-acquatici e terrestri presenti in questi ecosistemi, che vanno dagli invertebrati camminatori del suolo (come ragni e coleotteri), ad uccelli (merlo acquaiolo e altri passeriformi) e mammiferi (toporagni e pipistrelli). Siccome insettivori e pesci introdotti entrano in competizione poiché entrambi si nutrono di macroinvertebrati acquatici (in forma larvale e/o adulta), la nostra ricerca tenta di scoprire se la presenza dei pesci nei laghi possa influenzare negativamente la comunità di insettivori.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">On 6 May, the <strong>Pyrenean Institute of Ecology</strong> (IPE-CSIC) in Jaca (Aragón) hosted a new session of the <strong>Itinerarios Cicerón</strong>, an initiative launched by the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) to bridge scientific knowledge with society and to promote evidence-based decision-making. This edition focused on biodiversity recovery and science-based actions for nature restoration.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Teresa Buchaca</strong>, researcher at the Centre for Advanced Studies of Blanes (CEAB-CSIC), contributed as an expert in high mountain aquatic ecosystems, which are central to the LIFE RESQUE ALPYR project. In her talk, she explained that high mountain lakes function as true natural laboratories, as they allow researchers to track human impacts over time through palaeoecological analysis. This historical perspective is key to understanding ecosystem changes and planning more effective restoration measures.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As a successful example, <strong>Buchaca</strong> presented LIFE RESQUE ALPYR, a project aimed at restoring the ecological functionality of mountain lakes in the Pyrenees. She outlined actions such as removal of invasive species and the restoration of natural cycles, which have shown proven effectiveness and are based on the scientific knowledge generated at CEAB-CSIC and by the project’s partner institutions.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The event also featured CEAB researchers <strong>Jordi Pagès</strong> and <strong>Daniel Oro,</strong> who shared their insights on the restoration of coastal and delta ecosystems. In addition, pre-recorded videos were shown, offering a glimpse into the researchers’ work in the lab and in the field.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The session brought together scientists from various CSIC centres, nature reserve managers, public authorities, civil society organisations, businesses, and journalists. Coordinated by <strong>Graciela Gil-Romera</strong> (IPE-CSIC) and <strong>Óscar Godoy</strong> (EBD-CSIC), the organisers <strong>emphasised that nature restoration is an ecological imperative, and can only be successful if grounded in robust and applicable scientific knowledge.</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>The Itinerarios Cicerón initiative aims to connect research teams working on similar topics and to translate their findings into practical knowledge for society, helping to effectively address today’s environmental challenges.</strong></p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We are pleased to announce that the third newsletter of the <strong>LIFE RESQUE ALPYR</strong> project is now available! In this edition, we share the most significant progress made in recent months.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This year, we conducted our first pilot test with rotenone to eliminate invasive fish species from high-mountain lakes. This action is part of a broader strategy to restore high-altitude aquatic habitats, aiming to transform the restored lakes into biodiversity reservoirs and ecological corridors.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We have also focused on protecting mires, vital habitats for biodiversity and water regulation. Through strategic selective deforestation operations, we have reduced shading and created better conditions for their regeneration. In addition, we have continued the mire protection actions initiated in previous years, such as mowing wet hay meadows and livestock management through the installation of temporary and permanent fences.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Beyond our fieldwork, we remain committed to public engagement. Our participation in events like Science Week and European Researchers&#8217; Night has allowed us to raise awareness about the importance of conserving high-mountain aquatic ecosystems and to connect with the community. Furthermore, our team has participated in numerous scientific and technical conferences and events this year, aiming to share the results and knowledge generated at both national and international levels.</p>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Today, May 21, is the Natura 2000 Day</h4>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We are also taking advantage of this launch day to celebrate the <a href="https://environment.ec.europa.eu/topics/nature-and-biodiversity/natura-2000/natura-2000-day_en" data-type="link" data-id="https://environment.ec.europa.eu/topics/nature-and-biodiversity/natura-2000/natura-2000-day_en">European Natura 2000 Day</a>, of which we are a part. The Natura 2000 Network is a collection of protected areas designated to conserve certain species and habitats that live there. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In total, there are more than 27,000 of these areas across Europe.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The protection of these spaces aims to ensure the long-term survival of Europe&#8217;s most valuable and threatened species and habitats. Natura 2000 sites reflect Europe’s rich variety of wildlife and habitats. They cover&nbsp;almost one fifth of land and one tenth of surrounding seas &#8211; which is about the size of Spain and Italy combined.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">But what makes it special?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In addition to the numerous species of animals, plants, and habitats it protects, the Natura 2000 Network is the result of the cultural and historical interaction between humans and nature.</p>
