The thermal journey of macroalgae: Four decades of temperature-induced changes in the southeastern Bay of Biscay
(Elsevier, 2024-03)
Global warming is triggering significant shifts in temperate macroalgal communities worldwide, favoring small, warm-affinity species over large canopy-forming, cold-affinity species. The Cantabrian Sea, a region acutely ...
Tertiary wastewater treatment combined with high dilution rates fails to eliminate impacts on receiving stream invertebrate assemblages
(Elsevier, 2023-02)
he amount of wastewater processed in treatment plants is increasing following more strict environmental regulations. Treatment facilities are implementing upgrades to abate the concentrations of nutrients and contaminants ...
Multitarget and suspect-screening of antimicrobials in vegetables samples: Uptake experiments and identification of transformation products
(Elsevier, 2024-06)
This work provided an accurate analytical method to perform a multitarget analysis of a variety of antimicrobials (AMs) including sulfonamides, tetracyclines, macrolides, fluoroquinolones and quinolones, one imidazole and ...
Ageing kinetics of fern chlorophyllous spores during dry storage is determined by its antioxidant potential and likely induced by photosynthetic machinery
(Elsevier, 2023-12)
Ageing in dry chlorophyllous propagules is leaded by photooxidation through the photosynthetic machinery, but why species differ in longevity and the ageing mechanisms of when light and oxygen are absent are unknown. We ...
Constrained trait variation by water availability modulates radial growth in evergreen and deciduous Mediterranean oaks
(Elsevier, 2024-03)
Spatial and temporal variation in functional traits allows trees to adjust to shifting environmental conditions such as water stress. However, the change of traits, both mean and variances, along water availability gradients ...
Joint effects of warming and salinization on instream leaf litter decomposition assessed through a microcosm experiment
(Springer, 2024)
Stream ecosystem functioning is often impaired by warming and salinization, but the joint effect of both environmental stressors on key processes such as leaf litter decomposition is virtually unknown, particularly in the ...
Using biological traits to assess diet selection: the case of the Pyrenean Desman
(Oxford University Press, 2023-12)
Traditionally, researchers have assessed diet selection by comparing consumed versus available taxa. However, taxonomic assignment is probably irrelevant for predators, who likely base their selection on characteristics ...
Treated and highly diluted, but wastewater still impacts diversity and energy fluxes of freshwater food webs
(Elsevier, 2023-11)
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) have greatly improved water quality globally. However, treated effluents still contain a complex cocktail of pollutants whose environmental effects might go unnoticed, masked by additional ...
Short-term response of macroalgal communities to ocean warming in the Southern Bay of Biscay
(Elsevier, 2023-09)
Climate change is causing significant shifts in biological communities worldwide, including the degradation of marine communities. Previous research has predicted that southern Bay of Biscay canopy-forming subtidal macroalgal ...
Assessing the efficiency of dimethylpyrazole-based nitrification inhibitors under elevated CO2 conditions
(Elsevier, 2021-10)
Nitrification inhibitors (NIs) are useful tools to reduce nitrogen (N) losses derived from fertilization in agriculture. However, it remains unclear whether a future climate scenario with elevated CO2 could affect NIs ...
