Tracking the long-term dynamics of plant diversity in Northeast Spain with a network of volunteers and rangers
(Springer, 2018-05-01)
Scientific projects can greatly benefit from the participation of non-professionals in identifying environmental changes at a variety of spatial and temporal scales. In 2010, we launched a long-term project in Northeast ...
Plant Responses to Extreme Climatic Events: A Field Test of Resilience Capacity at the Southern Range Edge.
(Public Library Science, 2014-01-28)
The expected and already observed increment in frequency of extreme climatic events may result in severe vegetation shifts. However, stabilizing mechanisms promoting community resilience can buffer the lasting impact of ...
Intraregional variability of exotic and native zooplankton in Basque coast estuaries (inner Bay of Biscay): effect of secondary dispersion, estuary features and regional environmental gradients
(Springer Nature, 2024)
The zooplankton of five estuaries of the Basque coast (southeast Bay of Biscay) was surveyed in summer 2019 to check the intraregional spread of exotic species and analyse the cross-estuary differences in brackish and ...
Relationship between vegetation diversity and soil functional diversity in native mixed-oak forests
(Elsevier, 2007-05-22)
Most studies on the interactions between aboveground vegetation and belowground soil diversity have been carried out in microcosms or manipulated field plots. In the current study, we investigated the relationship between ...
Varying climate sensitivity at the drought-linked distribution edge of P. sylvestris and P. nigra.
(Elsevier, 2013-08-23)
Rear edge populations, those residing at the low-latitude margins of species ranges, represent a critical genetic diversity for species conservation, management, and evolutionary potential. The present study analyses ...
Seaweed: Nutritional and gastronomic perspective. A review
(Elsevier, 2024)
Seaweed are organisms rich in many bioactive compounds such as proteins, minerals, vitamins, fibers, essential amino acids, pigments, and fatty acids, which give them extraordinary antihypertensive, antidiabetic, antioxidant, ...
The thermal journey of macroalgae: Four decades of temperature-induced changes in the southeastern Bay of Biscay
(Elsevier, 2024-03)
Global warming is triggering significant shifts in temperate macroalgal communities worldwide, favoring small, warm-affinity species over large canopy-forming, cold-affinity species. The Cantabrian Sea, a region acutely ...
Tertiary wastewater treatment combined with high dilution rates fails to eliminate impacts on receiving stream invertebrate assemblages
(Elsevier, 2023-02)
he amount of wastewater processed in treatment plants is increasing following more strict environmental regulations. Treatment facilities are implementing upgrades to abate the concentrations of nutrients and contaminants ...
Multitarget and suspect-screening of antimicrobials in vegetables samples: Uptake experiments and identification of transformation products
(Elsevier, 2024-06)
This work provided an accurate analytical method to perform a multitarget analysis of a variety of antimicrobials (AMs) including sulfonamides, tetracyclines, macrolides, fluoroquinolones and quinolones, one imidazole and ...
Food-web energy fluxes, energy transfer efficiency, and diversity respond distinctively to pollution and water diversion in rivers
(Wiley, 2024-03)
Water diversion and pollution are two pervasive stressors for river ecosystems that often co-occur. The individual effects of both stressors on river communities and energy transfer across the food webs are well described; ...
