Impact of invasive species and disturbance on pollinator networks in Ogasawara

合作研究的目的是评估栖息地丧失和引进外来物种对小笠原群岛授粉相互作用网络的影响。为此，需要将博士后研究员的设计和长期生态学实地研究的经验、互惠互动网络分析的技能，以及我在昆虫生物学、动物行为学（特别是夜蛾科）和日本国际研究项目协调方面的长期经验结合起来。尽管COVID-19造成延误，但详尽的实地工作已有效完成，初步结果非常有希望。虽然合作尚未发表任何论文，但玛尔塔已开始分析，并将在不久的将来编写至少三篇影响力大的文章。该研究员将继续在西班牙的新职位上从事该项目，JSPS和TMU将在所有科学成果中得到认可。除了研究成果外，玛尔塔还为台北医学大学的学生做出了非常重要的贡献。她在野外生态学研究方法方面培养了硕士生和本科生，并在野外教授了基础动物学和植物学。

The goal of the collaborative research was to asses the impacts of habitat loss and introduction of alien species on the pollination interaction networks of the Ogasawara Islands. To this end, it was needed to join forces between the postdoctoral fellow and her experience on designing and conducting long-term ecological field researches and her skills on analysis of mutualistic interaction networks and my long experience on insect biology, animal behavior, with special focus on Hymenoptera, and coordination of international research projects based in Japan.The post-doctoral fellowship has been highly fruitful. The exhaustive field work has been effectively accomplished and the first results are very promising, despite the delays that imposed by COVID-19. While no papers have yet been published from the collaboration, Marta has started the analysis and at least three high-impact articles will be prepared in the near future. The fellow will continue working on the project in her new position in Spain and JSPS and the TMU will be acknowledged in all scientific output. Additional collaborative research projects are ongoing.In addition to research outputs, Marta has made a very significant contribution to students at TMU. She has formed master and undergraduate students in the methods of field-based ecological research and taught them basic zoology and botany in the field.
