Amphibian loss alters periphyton structure and invertebrate growth in montane streams
(Wiley, 2022-11)
Amphibians are declining worldwide due to a combination of stressors such as climate change, invasive species, habitat loss, pollution and emergent diseases. Although their losses are likely to have important ecological ...
A common fungicide impairs stream ecosystem functioning through effects on aquatic hyphomycetes and detritivorous caddisflies
(Academic Press-Elsevier, 2020-06-01)
Fungicides can reach streams through runoff or adhered to leaf litter, and have the potential to adversely affect processes such as litter decomposition and associated communities. This study investigated the effects of ...

(Asociación Española de Ecología Terrestre, 2020-04)
El tipo de desarrollo sostenible al que aspiramos necesita, entre otras cosas, una base de conocimiento científico, acuerdos sociales y decisiones políticas que encaminen la gestión hacia una ruta de sostenibilidad. Por ...
Key Elements of the White-Backed Woodpecker’s (Dendrocopos leucotos lilfordi) Habitat in Its European South-Western Limits
(MDPI, 2020-07-30)
In the last decade, the population of the white-backed woodpecker (Dendrocopos leucotos lilfordi) (WBW) in Navarre has been reduced mainly due to the loss of suitable habitat for this species from intensive forest management, ...
Elemental imaging approach to assess the ability of subaerial biofilms growing on constructions located in tropical climates as potential biomonitors of atmospheric heavy metals pollution
(Elsevier, 2022-10-06)
Over the last decades, the concern about air pollution has increased significantly, especially in urban areas. Active sampling of air pollutants requires specific instrumentation not always available in all the laboratories. ...
Decades of biomass loss in the shallow rocky subtidal vegetation of the south-eastern Bay of Biscay
(Springer, 2022)
[EN] This study seeks to assess changes over time in the structure of subtidal macroalgal assemblages across depth in the south-eastern Bay of Biscay. The results reveal a large-scale decline in total macroalgal biomass ...
Environmental justice and outdoor recreation opportunities: A spatially explicit assessment in Oslo metropolitan area, Norway
(Elsevier, 2020-06-20)
Abstract
Urban and peri-urban green space provides multiple recreation opportunities with important benefits for physical and psychological well-being, but access to these benefits is often unequally distributed. Various ...
Species-specific song responses emerge as a by-product of tuning to the local dialect.
(Elsevier, 2022-12)
Oscine birds preferentially respond to certain sounds over others from an early age, which focuses subsequent learning onto sexually relevant songs.1-3 Songs vary both across species and, due to cultural evolution, among ...
Co-Creation of Knowledge for Ecosystem Services Approach to Spatial Planning in the Basque Country
(MDPI, 2020-06-30)
Sustainable development has to be based on scientific knowledge, social agreements, and political decisions. This study aimed to analyse the implementation of the ecosystem services approach (ESA) in the spatial planning ...
Floristic Composition Mediates Change in Forage Nutritive Quality of Atlantic Mountain Grasslands after Experimental Grazing Exclusion
(MDPI, 2020-12-24)
Simultaneous reduction of biodiversity and forage nutritive value after grazing abandonment represents a critical agroecological problem observed in temperate mountain grasslands. However, how both processes affect each ...
