Assessing groundwater residence time in a highly anthropized unconfined...
Radiocarbon decay is rarely used to assess the residence time of modern groundwater due to the low resolution of its long half-life in comparison to the expected range of ages.... -
When policy implementation failures affect public preferences for...
The Water Framework Directive (WFD) establishes that Programme of Measures (PoMs) to manage aquatic ecosystems have to be assessed to determine whether the benefits obtained... -
Calibration of structure in a distributed forecasting model for a semiarid...
Flash floods pose a significant danger for life and property. Unfortunately, in arid and semiarid environment the runoff generation shows a complex non-linear behavior with a... -
Role of rhizosphere and soil properties for the phytomanagement of a salt...
The goal of this study was to evaluate the soil properties and their modifications within the rhizosphere of spontaneous vegetation as key factors to assess the phy tomanagement... -
Cultural adaptation to Spanish and assessment of an Adolescent Peer...

Dominance of small-sized phytoplankton in a Mediterranean eutrophic coastal lagoon
The predator-prey relationship is generally size-specific in the pelagic food webs. Phytoplankton cell size structure can provide information on the successive levels of... -
Biodiversity impacts by multiple anthropogenic stressors in Mediterranean...
Mediterranean coastal wetlands are considered biodiversity hot-spots and contain a high number of endemic species. The biodiversity of these ecosystems is endangered by several... -
Assessing the nursery role for marine fish species in a hypersaline coastal...
The shallow inshore areas of coastal lagoons function as nursery grounds for the early life stages of marine fish. Multi-species approaches and the assessment of several... -
A sustainable approach by using microalgae to minimize the eutrophication...
The present study evaluates the removal capacity of microalgae photobioreactors of environmental pollutants present in wastewater from the dry riverbed El Albujon, as a way to... -
Spatiotemporal Assessment of Littoral Waterbirds for Establishing Ecological...
Waterbirds are vital indicators of anthropogenic influence on the ecological status of Mediterranean coastal lagoons. Our study relates temporal waterbird data to key... -
Liming and vegetation favor Fe-mobilization in eutrophic wetland soils...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of liming and vegetation on the dynamic of Fe in eutrophic wetland soils affected by mine wastes, under different flooding... -
Coastalization patterns in the Mediterranean: A spatiotemporal analysis of...
Under the current climate change scenery, coastalization, i.e. a linear-type of urban sprawl along the coastal zone, has become a key planning and policy concern at a global... -
Sponge coating decreases predation on the bivalve Arca noae
Mediterranean populations of the bivalve Arco none were found to be specifically fouled by the demosponge Crambe crambe. The surface of the shells forms spines which favour... -
Simple tools for assessing water quality and trophic status in transitional...
In this study we have developed an index for assessing trophic status and water quality in transitional aquatic ecosystems of Southern Europe. The index has been developed from... -
Examining the implementation of potable water reuse in sewersheds of...
Sewage management is a key issue within circular economy and climate change scenario. Ensuring water supply is a challenge on a global scale. Numerous projects for potable water... -
Fish effects on benthos and plankton in a Mediterranean salt marsh
Fish predation has an important role structuring benthic and planktonic assemblages in shallow waters. Habitat complexity may mitigate the effect of fish predation, thus... -
A novel way of being together? On the depoliticising effects of attributing...
The recent trend of attributing rights to nature arguably introduces a novel way of ordering the relationship between humans and nonhumans. But to what extent does it challenge... -
Heavy metal removal of intermittent acid mine drainage with an open limestone channel
This study is focused on the influence of a particular open limestone channel (OLC) on the quality of the surface water drained from an intermittent watercourse. The OLC was... -
