Understanding the Geographic Patterns of Closely-Related Species of Paspalum (Poaceae) Using Distribution Modelling and Seed Germination Traits
(MDPI, 2023-03-16)The sexual species of the Dilatata complex (Paspalum dasypleurum, P. flavescens, P. plurinerve, P. vacarianum, and P. urvillei) are closely related phylogenetically and show allopatric distributions, except P. urvillei. ... -
Unravelling the historical biogeography of the European rabbit subspecies in the Iberian Peninsula
(Wiley, 2022-11-10)Understanding the biogeography of species in space and time is essential for the development of evidence-based conservation and management plans. In this paper we propose a biogeographical spatial modelling approach based ... -
Unrelenting spread of the alien monk parakeet Myiopsitta monachus in Israel. Is it time to sound the alarm?
(Wiley, Society of Chemical Industry, 2017)Monk parakeets, Myiopsitta monachus Boddaert, are native to South America but have established populations in North America, Europe, Africa and Asia. They are claimed to act as agricultural pests in their native range, and ... -
Updating known distribution models for forecasting climate change impact on endangered species
(San Francisco, CA : Public Library of Science, 2013-06-28)To plan endangered species conservation and to design adequate management programmes, it is necessary to predict their distributional response to climate change, especially under the current situation of rapid change. ... -
Updating the national baseline of non-indigenous species in Spanish marine waters
(MDPI, 2023-05-05)The introduction of new non-indigenous species (NIS) in Spanish marine waters is addressed under Descriptor 2 of the European Union’s Marine Strategy Framework Directive. National baseline inventories of NIS have been ... -
Using fuzzy logic to compare species distribution models developed on the basis of expert knowledge and sampling records
(BioMed Central (BMC, Part of Springer Nature) - Frontiers in Zoology, 2023-12-07)Los registros puntuales de fauna, afectados por el dinamismo en el tiempo que configura la naturaleza, son incapaces de representar la distribución real y completa de una especie. Los expertos infieren las distribuciones ... -
Weak relationship between risk assessment studies and recorded mortality in wind farms
(Wiley. British Ecological Society, 2012)Wind farms generate little or no pollution. However, one of their main adverse impacts is bird mortality through collisions with turbine rotors. Environmental impact assessment (EIA) studies have been based on observations ... -

Wind farms and griffon vultures: evidence that under certain conditions history is not-always turbulent
(Elsevier, 2023-11-11)Since the early stages of wind energy development, there has been concern about the potential impact of wind farms on wildlife, particularly birds and bats. However, the lack of long-term studies has hindered the assessment ... -
Wind turbines cause functional habitat loss for migratory soaring birds.
(2019-02-14)Wind energy production has expanded to meet climate change mitigation goals, but negative impacts of wind turbines have been reported on wildlife. Soaring birds are among the most affected groups with alarming fatality ... -
Worldwide dynamic biogeography of zoonotic and anthroponotic dengue
(PLOS, 2021)Dengue is a viral disease transmitted by mosquitoes. The rapid spread of dengue could lead to a global pandemic, and so the geographical extent of this spread needs to be assessed and predicted. There are also reasons to ... -
Yellow fever surveillance suggests zoonotic and anthroponotic emergent potential
(2022)Yellow fever is transmitted by mosquitoes among human and non-human primates. In the last decades, infections are occurring in areas that had been free from yellow fever for decades, probably as a consequence of the rapid ...
