Recent Advances in Enteric Methane Mitigation and the Long Road to Sustainable Ruminant Production
(Annual Reviews, 2024-02)
Mitigation of methane emission, a potent greenhouse gas, is a worldwide priority to limit global warming. A substantial part of anthropogenic methane is emitted by the livestock sector, as methane is a ...
Pinna nobilis in suboptimal environments are more tolerant to disease but more vulnerable to severe weather phenomena
(Elsevier, 2020-11-30)
We examined a disease outbreak of the fan mussel, Pinna nobilis (L.), in the Alfacs Bay (South Ebro Delta, Spain) during a period of two years in three zones exposed to a summer salinity gradient resulting ...
Trophic role and predatory interactions between the blue crab, Callinectes sapidus, and native species in open waters of the Ebro Delta
(Elsevier, 2024-01-14)
The Ebro Delta has become a major blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) fishery area in the NW Mediterranean, but there is limited information on factors controlling the abundance of populations in open waters, ...
Disentangling drivers of soil organic carbon storage in deltaic rice paddies from the Ebro Delta
(Elsevier, 2023-04-17)
Paddy farming can potentially sequester carbon. However, agricultural practices may alter the stability of the soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks and thereby increase carbon mobilization in the topsoil ...
Dietary fatty acid profiling in plant protein‐rich diets affects the reproductive performance, egg fatty acid profile and haematological parameters in female rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)
(Wiley, 2019-05-03)
The influence of dietary fish oil (FO) substitution with blends of vegetal oils (VO: canola, linseed, olive, sunflower, corn and coconut oils) in plant protein‐rich diets on reproductive performance and ...
Linking stocking densities and feeding strategies with social and individual stress responses on gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata)
(Elsevier, 2019-10-24)
Intensive aquaculture and poor management practices can cause stress and compromise welfare of farmed fish. This study aimed to assess the potential links between stocking densities and feeding methods ...
Using plant, microbe, and soil fauna traits to improve the predictive power of biogeochemical models
(Wiley, 2018-09-11)
Process‐based models describing biogeochemical cycling are crucial tools to understanding long‐term nutrient dynamics, especially in the context of perturbations, such as climate and land‐use change. ...
Coinfection with Entamoeba polecki and Brachyspira hyodysenteriae in a pig with severe diarrhea
(SAGE Publications, 2019-02-09)
Enteric disease in pigs is usually of multifactorial etiology, including infectious and non-infectious factors. In many cases of endemic diarrhea in weaner-to-finisher pigs, the combination of 2 or more ...
A review of the use of convolutional neural networks in agriculture
(Cambridge University Press, 2018-06-25)
Deep learning (DL) constitutes a modern technique for image processing, with large potential. Having been successfully applied in various areas, it has recently also entered the domain of agriculture. ...
Toxic marine microalgae and noxious blooms in the Mediterranean Sea: A contribution to the Global HAB Status Report
(Elsevier, 2020-06-12)
We review the spatial distribution of toxic marine microalgal species and the impacts of all types of harmful algal events (Harmful Algal Blooms, HABs) in the Mediterranean Sea (MS), including the Black ...
