Metallic Copper (Cu[0]) Obtained from Cu2+-Rich Acidic Mine Waters by Two Different Reduction Methods: Crystallographic and Geochemical Aspects
(MDPI, 2022-03-04)
The recovery of valuable metals from different types of wastes has become of prime strategic interest given the scarcity of primary critical raw materials at international scale. Implementation of new methods or refinement ...
The Anthropocene perspective : a geological approach to climate change
(Universidad de Valencia, 2022)
The most recent division of geological time is based on climate events caused by variations in the Earth's orbit and axis of rotation on a scale of thousands of years. However, the magnitude of geological change caused by ...
Maritime-oriented foragers during the Late Pleistocene on the eastern costa del sol (Southeast Iberia): Cueva Victoria (Málaga, Spain)
(Elsevier, 2022-06)
[EN] The Mediterranean coast of Spain is marked by several clusters of Palaeolithic sites: to the south of the Pyrenees, in the area around the Ebro River, in the central part, and on the south coast, one of the southernmost ...
Mid-latitude alluvial and hydroclimatic changes during the Paleocene- Eocene Thermal Maximum as recorded in the Tremp-Graus Basin, Spain
(Elsevier, 2022-06)
A short episode (-170 kyr) of extremely high global temperatures that occurred-56 Ma, known as the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum, is widely considered an ancient analogue of the ongoing anthropogenic warming. This ancient ...
A rapid sedimentary response to the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum hydrological change: New data from alluvial units of the Tremp-Graus Basin (Spanish Pyrenees)
(Elsevier, 2022-03-01)
A massive emission of light carbon about 56 Ma, recorded in marine and terrestrial sediments by a negative carbon isotope excursion (CIE), caused a short-lived (similar to 170 kyr) global warming event known as the ...
A new Cretaceous thyreophoran from Patagonia supports a South American lineage of armoured dinosaurs
(Nature, 2022)
The early evolution of thyreophoran dinosaurs is thought to have occurred primarily in northern continents since most evidence comes from the Lower and Middle Jurassic of Europe and North America. The diversification into ...
Upper Cretaceous European theropod palaeobiodiversity, palaeobiogeography and the intra-Maastrichtian faunal turnover: new contributions from the Iberian fossil site of Lano
(Wiley, 2022-01)
[EN] A total of 227 theropod teeth have so far been recovered from the upper Campanian Lano site (northern Iberian Peninsula). The teeth were studied for their qualitative and quantitative features. From the theropod sample ...
Análisis de la enseñanza de los procesos geológicos externos en la educación secundaria obligatoria del País Vasco
(Universidad de Cádiz. Departamento de Didáctica, 2022-04)
Los expertos han constatado una pérdida de interés hacia la geología de la población en general que podría estar relacionada con su exclusión progresiva en el currículo básico en la educación obligatoria. Sin embargo, es ...
The evolutionary ecology of the endemic European Eocene Plagiolophus (Mammalia: Perissodactyla)
(Elsevier, 2022-05)
The climatic cooling that began in the late middle Eocene and culminated in the Eocene-Oligocene transition meant major changes in Palaeotheriidae (Perissodactyla, Mammalia) biodiversity in Europe and could have caused the ...
Cantera Gorria and Red Ereño: Natural and Cultural Geoheritage (Basque Country, Spain)
(Springer, 2022)
[EN] Construction and ornamental stones are important elements of cultural heritage and geoheritage. The quarries, where these materials are extracted, are a type of site that combines these two types of heritage. Both the ...
