Identifying Green Infrastructure as a Basis for an Incentive Mechanism at the Municipality Level in Biscay (Basque Country)
(MDPI, 2018-01-10)
The contributions of green infrastructure (GI) to human well-being have been widely recognised; however, pathways for its systematic implementation are missing. Local governments can play a crucial role in the conservation ...
Bee-Plant Relationship in Early Childhood: A Study through the Analysis of Children’s Drawings
(MDPI, 2018-10-30)
Bees play a key role for humans, since crops pollination relies heavily on them. However, bees’ population is diminishing dramatically. Therefore, conservation actions are needed to protect them, including educational ones. ...
Secondary Education Students’ Beliefs about Mathematics and Their Repercussions on Motivation
(MDPI, 2020-03-06)
This research analyses the role of the affective dimension in learning mathematics during secondary education. In particular, the evolution of motivation and beliefs according to the students’ academic level, as well as ...
Organic Learning Gardens in Higher Education: Do They Improve Kindergarten Pre-service Teachers’ Connectedness to and Conception of Nature?
(Frontiers Media, 2020-03-10)
Studies have shed light on the idea that people who have experiences in natural settings might be more aware of the environment. Learning gardens, as outdoor contexts, might contribute to the development of students' ...
Integrating Mathematics and Science Teaching in the Context of Education for Sustainable Development: Design and Pilot Implementation of a Teaching-Learning Sequence about Air Quality with Pre-Service Primary Teachers
(MDPI, 2021-04-18)
This article presents an interdisciplinary teaching–learning sequence (TLS) about air quality for pre-service primary teachers using an organic learning garden. The design involved a curricular integration of concepts and ...
Unprepared to Deal with Invasion: Pre-Service Teachers’ Perception, Knowledge and Attitudes toward Invasive Species
(MDPI, 2020-12-16)
The serious and growing impacts of invasive alien species (IAS) on the planet make it necessary to include this issue with greater determination in educational programs, with the aim of generating citizens capable of dealing ...
Kinetic modelling for concentration and toxicity changes during the oxidation of 4-chlorophenol by UV/H2O2
(Nature, 2021-08-03)
This work develops a kinetic model that allow to predict the water toxicity and the main degradation products concentration of aqueous solutions containing 4-chlorophenol oxidised by UV/H2O2. The kinetic model was developed ...
A Study on the Spontaneous Representation of Animals in Young Children’s Drawings of Plant Life
(MDPI, 2018-04)
Previous research indicates that complex biological concepts may be successfully introduced in preschool age, provided that suitable educational interventions are designed for the initial stages of education. In this regard, ...
Improvement of low flows simulation in the SASER hydrological modeling chain
(Elsevier, 2023-01)
The physically-based, spatially-distributed hydrometeorological model SASER, which is based on the SURFEX LSM, is used to model the hydrological cycle in several domains in Spain and southern France. In this study, the ...
Elucidation of the Chemical Role of the Pyroclastic Materials on the State of Conservation of Mural Paintings from Pompeii
(Wiley, 2020-10-16)
Pyroclastic strata have always been thought to protect the archaeological remains of the Vesuvian area (Italy), hence allowing their conservation throughout the centuries. In this work, we demonstrate that they constitute ...
