Pristine vs. human-altered Ebro Delta habitats display contrasting resilience to RSLR
(Elsevier, 2018-11-23)
River deltas are ecologically and economically valuable coastal ecosystems but low elevations make them extremely sensitive to relative sea level rise (RSLR), i.e. the combined effects of sea level rise ...
Spatial and temporal dynamics of suspended load at-a-cross-section: The lowermost Ebro River (Catalonia, Spain)
(Elsevier, 2012-07)
Suspended load dynamics were analyzed for the period 2007e2009 in a semi-meandering
cross-section under different hydrological conditions. Samples were collected at four
different points of the ...
Effect of post-harvest practices on greenhouse gas emissions in rice paddies: flooding regime and straw management
(Springer, 2022-03-22)
Aims
To assess 1) the effect of the combination of flooding (winter flooding vs. non-winter flooding; WFL vs NWF) and timing of straw incorporation (early vs late straw incorporation; ESI vs LSI) in ...
Evaluating adaptation options to sea level rise and benefits to agriculture: The Ebro Delta showcase
(Elsevier, 2021-09-28)
Sea level rise (SLR) is threatening low-lying coastal areas such as river deltas. The Ebro river Delta (Spain) is representative of coastal systems particularly vulnerable to SLR due to significant ...
The main drivers of methane emissions differ in the growing and flooded fallow seasons in Mediterranean rice fields
(Springer, 2021-01-09)
Purpose
To assess 1) the cumulative greenhouse gas emissions –GHG- and global warming potential (methane – CH4- and nitrous oxide) from rice fields in the growing and fallow seasons, and 2) the ...
Effects of enhanced hydrological connectivity on Mediterranean salt marsh fish assemblages with emphasis on the endangered Spanish toothcarp (Aphanius iberus)
(PeerJ, 2017-02-28)
The hydrological connectivity between the salt marsh and the sea was partially restored in a Mediterranean wetland containing isolated ponds resulting from former salt extraction and aquaculture activities. ...
Neglecting the fallow season can significantly underestimate annual methane emissions in Mediterranean rice fields
(Public Library of Science, 2018-05-31)
Paddy rice fields are one of the most important sources of anthropogenic methane. Improving the accuracy in the CH4 budget is fundamental to identify strategies to mitigate climate change. Such improvement ...
Assessing methane emissions and soil carbon stocks in the Camargue coastal wetlands: Management implications for climate change regulation
(Elsevier, 2024-08-03)
Coastal wetlands are crucial in climate change regulation due to their capacity to act as either sinks or sources of carbon, resulting from the balance between greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, mainly ...
