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 ...
Synthesis, morphology, and crystallization kinetics of polyheptalactone (PHL)
(ACS, 2023-06)
Aliphatic polyesters are widely studied due to their excellent properties and low-cost production and also because, in many cases, they are biodegradable and/or recyclable. Therefore, expanding the range of available ...
Disentangling the role of electrons and phonons in the photoinduced CO desorption and CO oxidation on (O,CO)-Ru(0001)
(Frontiers Media, 2023-07)
The role played by electronic and phononic excitations in the femtosecond laser induced desorption and oxidation of CO coadsorbed with O on Ru(0001) is investigated using ab initio molecular dynamics with electronic friction. ...
Sustainable development goals in public administrations: Enabling conditions in local governments
(Sage Publications, 2023-01-04)
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a challenge that many public administrations face in promoting sustainable growth. Local governments, as the governmental tier closest to citizens, should deliberate upon strategies ...
Metal-free initiators pave the way for chemically recyclable polymers with industrially relevant properties
(Nature, 2023)
To solve the environmental disaster that is generated by legacy plastics accumulation, researchers are looking to design plastics
with enhanced end-of-life options, but many circular plastics do not meet industrial ...
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 ...
Intensifying gasoline production in the hydrocracking of pre-hydrotreated light cycle oil by means of Pt and Pd supported on a spent FCC catalyst
(Elsevier, 2023-02)
Motivated by the necessity of intensifying the valorization of secondary refinery streams and of extending the life cycle of the catalysts, this study aims to obtain high quality gasoline in the hydrocracking of a ...
High frequency of mitochondrial haplogroups H and H2 in medieval individuals from the Cathedral of Santa María (Basque Country). Their contribution to the study of inflammatory arthropathies
(Elsevier, 2023-02)
The haplogroup H has been associated with high mitochondrial energy efficiency, which may have favoured survival and reproduction under adverse environmental conditions. On the other hand, it enhances the production of ...
Characterisation of deposited dust particles on Mars insight lander Instrument Context Camera (ICC) lens
(Elsevier, 2023-03)
The ubiquitous dust in the Martian environment plays a key role in its weather and climate: it must be taken into account in the interpretation of remote sensing data and observations, and could pose a potential risk to ...
