Different sets of traits explain abundance and distribution patterns of European plants at different spatial scales
(Wiley, 2021-03-18)[Abstract] Aim: Plant functional traits summarize the main variability in plant form and function across taxa and biomes. We assess whether geographic range size, climatic niche size, and local abundance of plants can be ... -
Earthworms Modulate Impacts of Soil Heterogeneity on Plant Growth at Different Spatial Scales
(Frontiers, 2021-12-23)[Abstract] Soil heterogeneity (uneven distribution of soil nutrients and/or other properties) is ubiquitous in nature and can greatly affect plant growth. As earthworm activity can influence nutrient redistribution in the ... -
Effect of Depth across a Latitudinal Gradient in the Structure of Rhodolith Seabeds and Associated Biota across the Eastern Atlantic Ocean
(MDPI, 2023-01-12)[Abstract] Rhodolith seabeds are ‘ecosystem engineers’ composed of free-living calcareous red macroalgae, which create extensive marine habitats. This study addressed how depth influenced the structure (size and morphology) ... -
Effects of Glyphosate Application on Physiologically Integrated Clones of the Invasive Plant Carpobrotus edulis
(MDPI, 2022-01-12)[Abstract] Management of invasive alien species is a high priority for biodiversity conservation. Here, we studied the effects of glyphosate application, at 0.06 g/m2 concentration, on physiologically integrated basal and ... -
Effects of Temporal Heterogeneity in Nutrient Supply on Intra- And Inter-Genet Competition of a Clonal Herb
(Elsevier, 2022-03-04)[Abstract] Nutrients are often released heterogeneously over time (e.g., in pulses) in natural habitats. Different genotypes of the same plant species may vary in their responses to temporal nutrient heterogeneity so that ... -
Especies exóticas invasoras. Cátedra Parques Nacionales, de Juan Junoy, 2019 [Reseña]
(Asociación Española de Ecología Terrestre, 2020-04) -
Foreseeing the Future of Posidonia Oceanica Meadows by Accounting for the Past Evolution of the Mediterranean Sea
(Oxford Academic, 2022-12-01)[Abstract] The current warming of the Mediterranean Sea has been forecast to lead to the shrinkage of seagrass meadows. We agree that rising sea temperatures most likely will have immediate negative effects on them because ... -
Habitat quality assessment of Atlantic wet heathlands in Serra do Xistral, NW Spain
(Universidad de La Rioja, 2019)[Abstract] The assessment of habitat quality, especially in semi-natural managed systems, provides a powerful tool for monitoring short and longterm conservation actions. The Erica mackayana Atlantic wet heathlands of the ... -
Implications of Taxonomic Misidentification for Future Invasion Predictions: Evidence From One of the Most Harmful Invasive Marine Algae
(Elsevier, 2023-05-03)[Abstract] Invasive species have been a focus of concern in recent decades, becoming more problematic due to the cumulative impacts of climate change. Understanding the interactions among stress factors is essential to ... -
Influence of pH, N, P, N: P Ratio, and Dissolved Inorganic Carbon on Ulva ohnoi Growth and Biomass Quality: Potential Implications in IMTA-RAS
(MDPI, 2022-11-03)[Abstract] Ulva ohnoi has a big potential in IMTA-RAS fish–seaweed systems. In order to design the best production strategy in these systems, the effect of the main environmental factors, such as pH, nutrient concentration ... -
Isolation and characterization of fourteen polymorphic microsatellite markers in the viperine snake Natrix maura
(2019)[Abstract] Nineteen polymorphic microsatellite loci were identified and developed for Natrix maura. Polymorphism was assessed for 120 individuals sampled across four sampling sites from the French Pyrenees Mountains. The ... -
Landscape Genetics of the Protected Spanish Moon Moth in Core, Buffer, and Peripheral Areas of the Ordesa Y Monte Perdido National Park (Central Pyrenees, Spain)
(Springer, 2023-05-31)[Abstract] Conservation managers need to know the degree of connectivity showed by the populations to be preserved, especially when protected areas and/or species are involved. One of the conservation projects carried out ... -
Major Loss of Coralline Algal Diversity in Response to Ocean Acidification
(Wiley, 2021-07-16)[Abstract] Calcified coralline algae are ecologically important in rocky habitats in the marine photic zone worldwide and there is growing concern that ocean acidification will severely impact them. Laboratory studies of ... -
Performance of Polychaete Assisted Sand Filters Under Contrasting Nutrient Loads in an Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA) System
(Springer Nature, 2020-11-30)[Abstract] Polychaete assisted sand filters (PASFs) allow to combine a highly efficient retention of particulate organic matter (POM) present in aquaculture effluent water and turn otherwise wasted nutrients into valuable ... -
Potential Roles of Soil Microorganisms in Regulating the Effect of Soil Nutrient Heterogeneity on Plant Performance [Review]
(MDPI, 2022-12-03)[Abstract] The spatially heterogeneous distribution of soil nutrients is ubiquitous in terrestrial ecosystems and has been shown to promote the performance of plant communities, influence species coexistence, and alter ... -
Recovering Wasted Nutrients From Shrimp Farming Through the Combined Culture of Polychaetes and Halophytes
(Springer Nature, 2021-03-23)[Abstract] The bioremediation and biomass production of organic extractive organisms (polychaetes Arenicola marina, Hediste diversicolor and halophyte Salicornia ramosissima) was assessed in an integrated multi-trophic ... -
Similar factors underlie tree abundance in forests in native and alien ranges
(Wiley, 2019-12-01)[Abstract] Aim: Alien plant species can cause severe ecological and economic problems, and therefore attract a lot of research interest in biogeography and related fields. To identify potential future invasive species, ... -
Simplified Marsh Response Model (SMRM): A Methodological Approach to Quantify the Evolution of Salt Marshes in a Sea-Level Rise Context
(MDPI, 2022-07-15)[Abstract] Salt marshes are highly valued coastal environments for different services: coastline protection, biodiversity, and blue carbon. They are vulnerable to climate changes, particularly to sea-level rise. For this ... -
Small but strong: Socioeconomic and ecological resilience of a small European fishing community affected by a submarine volcanic eruption
(Elsevier, 2022-03-28)[Abstract] Small-scale coastal fishing communities are facing many new challenges, such as rapid ecological changes created by anthropogenic and natural events like earthquakes or volcanic eruptions. This paper explores ...
