Combining Small-Vertebrate, Marine and Stable-Isotope Data to Reconstruct Past Environments
(Nature, 2015)
Three very different records are combined here to reconstruct the evolution of environments in
the Cantabrian Region during the Upper Pleistocene, covering ~35.000 years. Two of these records
come from Antoliñako Koba ...
Non-destructive Screening Methodology based on ED-XRF for the classification of Medieval and post-Medieval Archaeological Ceramics
(Elsevier, 2019-06)
Compositional analysis of ceramics plays a crucial role in Archaeology because following the proper methodology, it enables to obtain knowledge about past human behavior. In this regard, X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometry ...

Influence of catchment processes on fluvial morphology and river habitats
(AIL, 2011)
Fluvial morphology is conditioned by three basic elements: flow regime, sediment yield and valley characteristics. These
elements are controlled by factors operating at different spatial and time scales, within and outside ...
The IHG index for hydromorphological quality assessment of rivers and streams: updated version
(AIL, 2011)
[EN]An updated version of the IHG index is presented. The index is based on three appraisal parameters: 1) the functional quality of the fluvial system, including a) flow regime naturalness, b) sediment supply and mobility, ...
A life-stage approach for decomposing spatiotemporal population changes along an urban-rural gradient: implications for regional planning
(Taylor and Francis, 2021-04-14)
The study of population changes across space and time of cohorts at different life stages is relevant for regional planning, but it is often not taken into account. We focus on a case study along the urban-rural gradient ...
