Declining water resources in the Anduña River Basin of Western Pyrenees: Land abandonment or climate variability?
(Journal of Hydrology: Regional Studies, 2024-06-01)
Study Region: Mountains play a crucial role in supplying water for consumption, irrigation, and hydroelectric power. However, they are highly vulnerable to climate change. The Pyrenees exemplify a mountainous region ...
Quantifying the role of saltmarsh as a vulnerable carbon sink: A case study from Northern Portugal
(Science of the Total Environment, 2024-05-01)
Saltmarshes play a crucial role in carbon sequestration and storage, although they are increasingly threatened by climate change-induced sea level rise (SLR). This study assessed the potential variation in Blue Carbon ...
Identification of suspicious behavior through anomalies in the tracking data of fishing vessels
(EPJ Data Science, 2024-12-01)
Automated positioning devices can generate large datasets with information on the movement of humans, animals and objects, revealing patterns of movement, hot spots and overlaps among others. However, in the case of Automated ...
Climate action from a gender perspective: A systematic review of the impact of climate policies on inequality
(Energy Research and Social Science, 2024-06-01)
In 1992 the United Nations committed to promoting a gender perspective in all environmental and development programs and to establishing mechanisms for assessing the impact of environmental policies on women. However, 30 ...
Securing Nature's Contributions to People requires at least 20%–25% (semi-)natural habitat in human-modified landscapes
(One Earth, 2024-01-19)
The cascading effects of biodiversity decline on human well-being present a pressing challenge for sustainable development. Conservation efforts often prioritize safeguarding specific species, habitats, or intact ecosystems ...
Climate change as a veiled driver of migration in Bangladesh and Ghana
(Science of the Total Environment, 2024-04-20)
People living in deltaic areas in developing countries are especially prone to suffer the effects from natural disasters due to their geographical and economic structure. Climate change is contributing to an increase in ...
Decoding bilingualism from resting-state oscillatory network organization
(WILEY, 2024)
Can lifelong bilingualism be robustly decoded from intrinsic brain connectivity? Can we determine, using a spectrally resolved approach, the oscillatory networks that better predict dual-language experience? We recorded ...
Does bilingual experience influence statistical language learning?
(ELSEVIER, 2024)
Statistical language learning (SL) tasks measure different aspects of foreign language learning. Studies have used SL tasks to investigate whether bilingual experience confers advantages in acquiring additional languages ...
Insights into the genetic architecture of cerebellar lobules derived from the UK Biobank
(NATURE, 2024)
In this work we endeavor to further understand the genetic architecture of the cerebellum by examining the genetic underpinnings of the different cerebellar lob(ul)es, identifying their genetic relation to cortical and ...
Sniffing out meaning: Chemosensory and semantic neural network changes in sommeliers
(WILEY, 2024)
Wine tasting is a very complex process that integrates a combination of sensa-tion, language, and memory. Taste and smell provide perceptual information that,together with the semantic narrative that converts flavor into ...
