(MDPI, 2021-08-20)
The Selvagens Islands, which are a marine protected area located at the southernmost point of the Portuguese maritime zone, have been associated with fish harboring ciguatoxins (CTX) and linked to ...
Impacts of diffuse urban stressors on stream benthic communities and ecosystem functioning: A review
(Asociación Ibérica de Limnología, 2024)
Catchment urbanisation results in urban streams being exposed to a multitude of stressors. Notably, stressors originating from diffuse sources have received less attention than stressors originating ...
Retos y oportunidades para la evaluación del estado ecológico en ríos temporales
(Asociación Española de Ecología Terrestre, 2024-03-06)
Los ríos temporales (RTs) son ecosistemas fluviales en los que los efectos de las perturbaciones antrópicas se mezclan con los de la propia perturbación natural que impone la temporalidad del flujo. A ...
Integrating spatiotemporal hydrological connectivity into conservation planning to protect temporary rivers
(Wiley, 2024-03-25)
1. Temporary rivers (TRs) have been largely overlooked in conservation assessments. Because TRs are such dynamic ecosystems, spatial and temporal aspects of their hydrology and ecology need to be taken ...

Automated Patch Clamp for the Detection of Tetrodotoxin in Pufferfish Samples
(MDPI, 2024-04-15)
Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is a marine toxin responsible for many intoxications around the world. Its presence in some pufferfish species and, as recently reported, in shellfish, poses a serious health concern. ...
Analysing the contribution of intermittent rivers to beta diversity can improve freshwater conservation in Mediterranean rivers
(Springer, 2024-04-25)
In Mediterranean climate regions, intermittent rivers (IRs) harbor highly dynamic communities with species and trait composition changing over time and space. Simultaneously considering multiple ...
