Groundwater vulnerability to pollution in karst aquifers, considering key challenges and considerations: application to the Ubrique springs in southern Spain
(Springer, 2021-01-21)Groundwater vulnerability mapping is one of the tools most often applied to analyse the sensitivity of karst aquifers to pollution. These maps aim to support stakeholders in decision-making and to promote land-use management ... -
Global karst springs hydrograph dataset for research and management of the world’s fastest-flowing groundwater.
(Nature, 2020-02-20)Tunde et al. (2020) presentan los resultados de un laborioso trabajo de recopilación de series temporales de datos de caudal de más de 400 manantiales de naturaleza kárstica de todo el mundo. Los hidrogramas se han obtenido ... -
Modelling the effects of climate change and population growth in four intensively exploited Mediterranean aquifers. The Mijas range, Southern Spain.
(Elsevier, 2020-03)Groundwater is key to economic growth in the Mediterranean region. This is particularly true of areas such as southern Spain, where aquifers underpin social development by supplying water to a booming tourist industry. ... -
Comparison of artificial neural networks and reservoir models for simulating karst spring discharge on five test sites in the Alpine and Mediterranean regions.
(Copernicus Publications (European Geosciences Union), 2023-05-23)Hydrological models are widely used to characterize, understand and manage hydrosystems. Lumped parameter models are of particular interest in karst environments given the complexity and heterogeneity of these systems. ... -
Hydro-environmental changes assessment after Guadalhorce River mouth channelization. An example of hydromodification in southern Spain
(Elsevier, 2020-02-01)The Guadalhorce River mouth (Málaga, Southern Spain) was channelized between 1997 and 2003 to reduce flooding potential in adjacent densely populated sections of Málaga. The channel was bifurcated near the Mediterranean ... -

Risk of groundwater contamination widely underestimated because of fast flow into aquifers.
(2021-05-10)Hartmann et al. presentan los resultados científicos de una investigación de alto nivel en la que se evalúa el riesgo de contaminación de aguas subterráneas en acuíferos kársticos a escala continental, como consecuencia ... -
Regional scale analysis of karst underground flow properties from tracing experiments. Examples from carbonate aquifers from Malaga province (S Spain).
(Springer, 2018-02)En esta investigación se analizan en profundidad y se aplican modelos numéricos a los datos de ensayos de trazadores artificiales (curvas de paso) obtenidos durante los últimos 15 años por miembros del Centro de Hidrogeología ... -
Combining Experimental Methods and Modeling to Quantify the Complex Recharge Behavior of Karst Aquifers.
(American Geophysical Union, 2019-01-17)Integration of the abundant information derived from different sources, characterizing techniques and modeling methodologies, is crucial for extending our knowledge of karst aquifers and their available water resources. ... -
Combining hydrodynamics, hydrochemistry, and environmental isotopes to understand the hydrogeological functioning of evaporite-karst springs. An example from southern Spain
(Elsevier, 2019-06-21)This work adopts a multicriteria approach to investigate the functioning of evaporite-karst systems, rarely studied. The natural responses of the main discharge point of the system of study (Lower Anzur spring) were ... -
Phenotypic integration and modularity drives skull shape divergence in the Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus) from the Commander Islands
(Royal Society, 2019-09-25)Phenotypic integration and modularity influence morphological disparity and evolvability. However, studies addressing how morphological integration and modularity change for long periods of genetic isolation are scarce. ... -
An eye for a tooth: Thylacosmilus was not a marsupial ‘‘saber-tooth predator’’
(PeerJ, 2020-06)Background. Saber-toothed mammals, now all extinct, were cats or ‘‘cat-like’’ forms with enlarged, blade-like upper canines, proposed as specialists in taking large prey. During the last 66 Ma, the saber-tooth ecomorph has ... -
Phenotypic integration in the carnivoran backbone and the evolution of functional differentiation in metameric structures
(2021)Explaining the origin and evolution of a vertebral column with anatomically distinct regions that characterizes the tetrapod bodyplan provides understanding of how metameric structures become repeated and how they acquire ... -
Spatial and temporal variability of biomass and composition of green tides in Ireland
(Elsevier, 2019)The identification of relevant scales of variation is a necessary prerequisite before explanatory models can be proposed and tested. In this study spatial and temporal patterns of biomass distribution were assessed for two ... -
Regional Genetic Structure in the Aquatic Macrophyte Ruppia cirrhosa Suggests Dispersal by Waterbirds
(Springer, 2017)The evolutionary history of the genus Ruppia has been shaped by hybridization, polyploidisation and vicariance that have resulted in a problematic taxonomy. Recent studies provided insight into species circumscription, ... -
Distinct Predatory Behaviors in Scimitar- and Dirk-Toothed Sabertooth Cats.
(Cell Press, 2018-10-22)Over the Cenozoic, large cat-like forms have convergently evolved into specialized killers of “megaherbivores” that relied on their large, and laterally compressed (saber-like) canines to rapidly subdue their prey. Scimitar- ... -
