Utility of the two-source energy balance (TSEB) model in vine and interrow flux partitioning over the growing season
(Springer Verlag, 2018-09-14)
For monitoring water use in vineyards, it becomes important to evaluate the evapotranspiration (ET) contributions from the two distinct management zones: the vines and the interrow. Often the interrow ...
Influence of surfactants and proteins on the properties of wet edible calcium alginate meat coatings
(Elsevier, 2018-04-03)
Calcium alginate structures are of interest as replacers for natural casings due to their high availability, biodegradability and low price. The aim of this paper is to study the effect of oil, surfactants ...

(Elsevier, 2018-05-29)
The effectiveness of a water-assisted UV-C (WUV) technology for the decontamination of fresh-cut broccoli fromconventional and organic agricultural practices was evaluated as an alternative to chlorine ...
Price transmission dynamics for quality‐certified food products: A comparison between conventional and organic fluid milk in Italy
(Wiley, 2018-06-25)
Despite the vast number of works investigating price transmission (PT) processes in diverse agrifood markets, very little has been said about quality‐differentiated products. In this paper, we compare ...
Skin mucus metabolites in response to physiological challenges: A valuable non-invasive method to study teleost marine species
(Elsevier, 2018-07-13)
Knowledge concerning the health and welfare of fish is important to conserve species diversity. Fish mucosal surfaces, and particularly the skin, are of utmost importance to protect the integrity and ...
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 ...
Multi-isotopic assessments of spatio-temporal diet variability: the case of two sympatric gulls in the western Mediterranean
(Wiley, 2018-11-15)
In predator populations, changes in foraging behaviour in response to spatio-temporal variability of prey are expected. Prey depletion might cause trophic niche widening in generalist species, but not ...
Global guidance on environmental life cycle impact assessment indicators: impacts of climate change, fine particulate matter formation, water consumption and land use
(Springer Verlag, 2018-03-16)
Purpose
Guidance is needed on best-suited indicators to quantify and monitor the man-made impacts on human health, biodiversity and resources. Therefore, the UNEP-SETAC Life Cycle Initiative initiated ...
Effects of steaming on contaminants of emerging concern levels in seafood
(Elsevier, 2018-05-19)
Seafood consumption is a major route for human exposure to environmental contaminants of emerging concern (CeCs). However, toxicological information about the presence of CeCs in seafood is still ...
