Análisis y evaluación de las alternativas de protección de las aguas subterráneas durante las operaciones de extracción de los residuos (alquitranes ácidos) en una laguna de Arganda del Rey (Madrid)
(Instituto Geológico y Minero de España, 2021)[Resumen:] La Comunidad de Madrid está llevando a cabo la restauración integral de una antigua gravera contaminada con residuos peligrosos, mayoritariamente sulfonatos de petróleo (alquitranes ácidos), procedentes del ... -
Anisotropic deformability and strength of slate from NW-Spain
(Elsevier, 2021)[Abstract:] Slates are metamorphic rocks characterized by the pervasive occurrence of cleavage or foliation producing a highly anisotropic mechanical behavior characterized by fissility. Deformability and strength of these ... -
Anoxia begets anoxia: A positive feedback to the deoxygenation of temperate lakes
(Wiley, 2023)[Abstract:] Declining oxygen concentrations in the deep waters of lakes worldwide pose a pressing environmental and societal challenge. Existing theory suggests that low deep-water dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations could ... -
Application of an Analytic Methodology to Estimate the Movements of Moored Vessels Based on Forecast Data
(MDPI, 2019-09)[Abstract]: A port’s operating capacity and the economic performance of its concessions are intimately related to the quality of its operational conditions. This paper presents an analytical methodology for estimating the ... -
Assessing Different Imaging Velocimetry Techniques to Measure Shallow Runoff Velocities During Rain Events Using an Urban Drainage Physical Model
(Copernicus GmbH, 2021)[Abstract] Although surface velocities are key in the calibration of physically based urban drainage models, the shallow water depths developed during non-extreme precipitation and the potential risks during flood events ... -
Assessing the Effects of Climate Change on Compound Flooding in Coastal River Areas
(AGU Journals, 2021)[Abstract] Flood assessment in coastal river areas is subject to complex dependencies and interactions between flood drivers. In addition, coastal areas are especially vulnerable to climate change, and thus its effects ... -
Assessment of the performance of drought indices for explaining crop yield variability at the national scale: Methodological framework and application to Mozambique
(Elsevier, 2020)[Abstract:] Droughts are one of the most damaging and complex natural disasters in the world, and they frequently affect agricultural production. Drought monitoring is essential for decision-makers seeking to minimize the ... -
Benchmark of computational hydraulics models for open-channel flow with lateral cavities
(Taylor & Francis, 2024)[Abstract:] Computational models in hydro-environmental engineering are diverse in their background formulation and span from two-dimensional depth-averaged shallow water models, to complex fully three-dimensional turbulence ... -
Benchmarking of Drought and Climate Indices for Agricultural Drought Monitoring in Argentina
(Elsevier, 2021)[Abstract] Site-specific studies are required to identify suitable drought indices (DIs) for assessing and predicting drought-related impacts. This study presents a benchmark of eight DIs and 19 large-scale climate indices ... -
Characterisation of sediments during transport of solids in circular sewer pipes
(IWA Publishing, 2018)[Abstract:] This research is focused in the monitoring of sediments in circular sewer pipes with different diameters at a flume facility fed with urban wastewater. For this purpose, sediment physical and chemical ... -
Characterization and geochemical–geotechnical properties of granite sawdust produced by the dimension stone industry of O Porriño (Pontevedra, Spain)
(GeoScienceWorld, 2010)[Abstract:] The dimension stone industry is one of the leading economic activities of Galicia and it is also an important industry in many other parts in the world. During the sawing and preparation of dimension stone, a ... -
CO2-Brine Substitution Effects on Ultrasonic Wave Propagation Through Sandstone With Oblique Fractures
(American Geophysical Union AGU, 2020)[Abstract:] Seismic monitoring of injected CO2 plumes in fractured storage reservoirs relies on accurate knowledge of the physical mechanisms governing elastic wave propagation, as described by appropriate, validated rock ... -
Combining a daily temperature pattern analysis and a heat-pulse system to estimate sediment depths in sewer systems
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2024)[Abstract:] Sediments in urban drainage systems (UDS) significantly impact their operation, so effective strategies are required to reduce their negative effects. Monitoring sediment accumulation provides valuable insights ... -
Comparación de índices de sequía univariables y multivariables basados en datos satelitales para la monitorización de sequías hidrológicas en el ARA Sur, Mozambique
(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2022)[Resumen:] La sequía es un fenómeno natural que afecta a los sistemas socioeconómicos y medioambientales por lo que su monitorización es clave para minimizar sus impactos. En Mozambique, en el sur de África el 70% de la ... -
Comparative hydrochemistry of five nested catchments located in the upper part of the Barcés river watershed (A Coruña, NW Spain)
(Elsevier, 2011)[Abstract:] 259 stream water and 21 bulk precipitation samples have been studied between April 2008 and December 2010 in order to assess baseline hydrochemical conditions in a rural area of NW Spain. Stream waters are ... -
Comparison of machine learning techniques for reservoir outflow forecasting
(European Geosciences Union, 2022)[Abstract:] Reservoirs play a key role in many human societies due to their capability to manage water resources. In addition to their role in water supply and hydropower production, their ability to retain water and control ... -
Comparison of three different numerical implementations to model rainfall-runoff transformation on roofs
(Wiley, 2022)[Abstract:] Roofs represent a high percentage of the impervious surfaces in urban areas, and hence their implementation in urban drainage models is essential for accurate results to be achieved. Current modelling approaches ... -
Conservation Agriculture Increases Profits in an Andean Region of South America
(Wiley, 2019)[Abstract:] The Andean region of Ecuador is critical for the country's food security; however, cultivation of high-slope mountainous agricultural systems that experience significant precipitation is accelerating erosion ... -
Conservation Agriculture Increases Yields and Economic Returns of Potato, Forage, and Grain Systems of the Andes
(Wiley, 2019)[Abstract:] Physical and environmental vulnerability analysis conducted for the Illangama watershed located in Ecuador's Andean highlands, shows deteriorated soil quality and declining crop productivity. These problems are ...
