PICO
Most people think of invasive species only as a nuisance with negative impacts on biodiversity and costs to society. However, some invasive species may also bring benefits, making it difficult to decide on the management strategy.
Restoration transformed sea urchin desert into rich forest
In Porsangerfjorden in Finnmark, large-scale sea urchin removal has restored the kelp forest on a former marine desert landscape. Almost ten years after the sea urchins were removed, the project can report that millions of kelp plants and billions of small animals are still occurring.
