Application of a Biological Multilevel Response Approach in the Copepod Acartia Tonsa for Toxicity Testing of Three Oil Water Accommodated Fractions
(Elsevier, 2021-06-01)Abstract Copepods play a critical role in the marine food webs, being a food source for marine organisms. In this study, we investigated the toxic effects of Water Accommodated Fractions (WAFs) from three types of oil: ... -
Assembly of viral genomes from metagenomes
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2014-12-18)Viral infections remain a serious global health issue. Metagenomic approaches are increasingly used in the detection of novel viral pathogens but also to generate complete genomes of uncultivated viruses. In silico ... -
Assessment of iron oxide nanoparticle ecotoxicity on regeneration and homeostasis in the replacement model system Schmidtea mediterranea
(Altex, 2019-04-26)Iron oxide nanoparticles (IONs) are used in a number of applications, from food to cosmetics, from medical applications to magnetic storage. In spite of the 550 tons produced each year in Europe alone, no effective dose ... -
Assessment of the effectiveness of antifouling solutions for recreational boats in the context of marine bioinvasions
(Elsevier, 2024-03)The recreational boating sector is a major vector for the introduction of non-indigenous species (NIS) via biofouling. Despite applying control measures to prevent the growth of fouling communities, most vessels are NIS ... -
At the beginnings of the funerary Megalithism in Iberia at Campo de Hockey necropolis
(Nature, 2022)[EN] The excavations undertaken at the Campo de Hockey site in 2008 led to the identification of a major Neolithic necropolis in the former Island of San Fernando (Bay of Cadiz). This work presents the results of the latest ... -

(2018-12-10)El atún blanco (Thunnus alalunga) es una especie pelágica oceánica que habita las aguas templadas y tropicales del Atlántico. El stock norte el Atlántico sustenta importantes pesquerías europeas y asiáticas y en España, ... -
Baseline tissue concentrations of metal in aquatic oligochaetes: field and laboratory approaches.
(Elsevier, 2017-02-04)Metal tissue residue evaluation in benthic macroinvertebrates is an important component of an integrated approach to ecological risk assessment of metals and metalloids in the Nalón River basin (North Spain), where historic ... -
Baseline tissue levels of trace metals and metalloids to approach ecological threshold concentrations in aquatic macroinvertebrates
(Elsevier, 2018-04-24)Within the framework of the European Environmental Quality Standards Directive, the biota was recognized as a suitable matrix for monitoring water quality. In the Nalón River basin (North Spain), a catchment subject to ... -
Bats Actively Track and Prey on Grape Pest Populations
(Elsevier, 2021-07)There is growing evidence about the role of insectivorous bats against agricultural pests in various crops. Nevertheless, little research addressed the aggregational and functional responses of bat assemblages to changes ... -
Bats from different foraging guilds prey upon the pine processionary moth
(PeerJ, 2019-03-08)Outbreaks of the processionary moth Thaumetopoea pityocampa (Denis & Schiffer-mailer, 1775), a forest pest from the Palearctic, are thought to induce a behavioral response of bats, but up to now the moth has been seldom ... -
Beyond environmental drivers: the role of biotic interactions in driving top predators' distribution and abundance
(2021-06-29)Over the past 10 years, Species Distribution Models have become commonplace in the studies of biogeography, conservation biology, ecology, and climate change. However, most studies applying SDMs mainly quantify species-environment ... -
Bioaccumulation and chronic toxicity of arsenic and zinc in the aquatic oligochaetes Branchiura sowerbyi and Tubifex tubifex (Annelida, Clitellata)
(Elsevier, 2021-08-28)Oligochaetes feed on bulk sediment and penetrate the sediment through the construction of burrows, making them especially vulnerable to sediment metal contamination. However, the few oligochaete species that have been ... -
Biodiversity and habitat preferences of the by-catch communities from the tropical tuna purse-seine fishery in the pelagic ecosystem: The case of the Indian, Pacific and Atlantic Ocean
(2016-06-17)La pesquería de cerco de atún tropical, principalmente centrada en la pesca de rabil (Thunnus albacares), listado (Katsuwonus pelamis) y patudo (Thunnus obesus), es la más importante en términos de capturas a nivel mundial ... -
Biodiversity of groundwater oligochaetes from a karst unit in northern Iberian Peninsula: ranking subterranean sites for conservation management
(Springer, 2008-03-05)El presente estudio sugiere que la unidad kárstica de Santa Eufemia-Ereñozar en el norte de la Península Ibérica es un hotspot de biodiversidad para los oligoquetos de aguas subterráneas, debido a (1) la presencia de un ... -
Biological Responses and Toxicopathic Effects Elicited in Solea Senegalensis Juveniles by Waterborne Exposure to Benzo[a]pyrene
(Elsevier, 2021-05-11)Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are priority contaminants in coastal and estuarine ecosystems under anthropogenic pressure. Although PAHs tend to accumulate in the sediment, toxicity for benthic flat fish such ... -
Biomarker responses in mussels (Mytilus trossulus) from the Baltic Sea exposed to water-accommodated fraction of crude oil and a dispersant at different salinities
(Elsevier, 2023-07)Oil spills pose significant environmental risks, particularly in cold seas. In the Baltic Sea, the low salinity (from 0 to 2 up to 18) affects the behaviour of the spilled oil as well as the efficiency and ecological impacts ... -
