Water Resources Response to Changes in Temperature, Rainfall and CO2 Concentration: A First Approach in NW Spain
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2014)
[Abstract] Assessment of the diverse responses of water resources to climate change and high concentrations of CO2 is crucial for the appropriate management of natural ecosystems. Despite numerous studies on the impact of ...
Fossil Lagomorpha (Mammalia) of Italy: Systematics and Biochronology
(2020)
[Abstract] Revisions performed in the last 15 years added remarkable novelties to the taxonomy and biochronology of Italian fossil lagomorphs.
Several new taxa have been erected basing on new materials and on the revision ...
Comparing surface digitization techniques in palaeontology using visual perceptual metrics and distance computations between 3D meshes
(Wiley, 2021-01-17)
[Abstract] The use of surface digitization techniques and methods in palaeontology has increased in the last two decades, mainly due to recent improvements in devices and software. However, many digitization efforts are ...
Aluminum Geochemical Characterization in Agricultural Soils: Sequential Chemical Extraction Combined With Mineralogical Analysis of the Fine Fraction
(IOP Publishing, 2020-12-15)
[Abstract] Understanding both the concentration and distribution of aluminum (Al) in agricultural soils is essential to provide a benchmark on the productivity of such soils. In this study, a combination of sequential ...
Formation and Evolution of Back-Barrier Perched Lakes in Rocky Coasts: An Example of a Holocene System in North-West Spain
(Wiley, 2018-09-22)
[Abstract] Coastal back-barrier perched lakes are freshwater bodies that are elevated over sea-level and are not directly subjected to the inflow of seawater. This study provides a detailed reconstruction of the Doniños ...
Climatic Fluctuations in the Hyperarid Core of the Atacama Desert During the Past 215 ka
(Springer Nature, 2019-03-27)
[Abstract] Paleoclimate records from the Atacama Desert are rare and mostly discontinuous, mainly recording runoff from the Precordillera to the east, rather than local precipitation. Until now, paleoclimate records have ...
Challenging Easter Island’s Collapse: The Need for Interdisciplinary Synergies
(Frontiers, 2013-12-17)
[Abstract] The reigning paradigm holds that Easter Island suffered a socio-ecological collapse (ecocidal or not) sometime in the last millennium, prior to European contact (AD 1720). We discuss some novel paleoecological ...

[Resumen] El desarrollo y evolución de los sistemas arenosos costeros está gobernado por un frágil equilibrio dinámico entre la interacción de múltiples factores ambientales, y por ello estos sistemas naturales son altamente ...
Oceanographical Context of the First Bloom of the Silicoflagellate Octactis speculum (Ehrenberg) Recorded to Cause Salmon Mortality in a Galician Ria: Was This Bloom a Rare Event in the Iberian Coast?
(MDPI, 2023-07-02)
[Abstract] Harmful algal blooms are one of the leading causes of mortality in salmon aquaculture, with significant economic consequences. From 15 to 31 October 1996, a bloom of the skeletonized form of Octactis speculum ...
Carbonate and Organic Matter Sedimentation and Isotopic Signatures in Lake Chungará, Chilean Altiplano, During the Last 12.3 kyr
(Elsevier, 2011-05-22)
[Abstract] Sediments in lakes in the Andean volcanic setting are often made up of diatomaceous ooze together with volcaniclastics and small amounts of carbonates. Despite their scarcity, carbonates along with organic matter ...
