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. ... -
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 ... -
Real-time karst groundwater monitoring and bacterial analysis as early warning strategies for drinking water supply contamination
(Elsevier, 2023-12-22)Karst aquifers have been globally exploited as a reliable source of drinking water but their intrinsic characteristics (concentrated recharge, high groundwater flow velocities, etc.) and the increase of anthropogenic ... -
Reconstructing depositional environments through cave interior facies: The case of Galería Complex (Sierra de Atapuerca, Spain)
(Elsevier, 2023-11)This work showed that cave sediments are useful for geomorphologic studies and for reconstructing depositional environments. While the cave entrance facies have been extensively studied for their relationship with the ... -
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, ... -
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 ... -
Revision of TD1 and TD2 stratigraphic sequence of Gran Dolina cave (Sierra de Atapuerca, Spain)
(Springer Nature, 2022-10-31)Gran Dolina es una cueva rellena por al menos 25 m de sedimentos pleistocenos dividido en 12 unidades litoestratigráficas y 19 facies sedimentarias. Estas facies sedimentarias se han dividido entre facies alóctonas, ... -
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 ... -
Screening for New Cosmeceuticals from Brown Algae Fucus vesiculosus with Antioxidant and Photo-Protecting Properties
(IOAP-MPDI, 2022-10-31)Phlorotannins play a role in biological functions to protect the cells against UV and oxidative damage in brown algae. We hypothesized that these compounds can function as photo-protectors and antioxidants in skin care ... -
Selection of LED lighting systems for the reduction of the biodeterioration of speleothems induced by photosynthetic biofilms in the Nerja Cave (Malaga, Spain)
(ELSEVIER, 2021-04)Electrical lighting favours the development of photosynthetic biofilms in caves which can induce biodeterioration in the colonized substrates. The use of specific lights as a limiting factor for biofilm growth could be ... -
Sharing food with hyenas: a latrine of Pachycrocuta brevirostris in the Early Pleistocene assemblage of Fuente Nueva‑3 (Orce, Baza Basin, SE Spain)
(Springer, 2023)The Early Pleistocene archeological site of Fuente Nueva-3 (FN3) preserves some of the oldest evidence of hominin presence in Western Europe, including a huge assemblage of Oldowan tools and evidence of butchering and ... -
Sixty-six million years along the road of mammalian ecomorphological specialization.
(Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States, 2019-06-25)The fossil record of the large terrestrial mammals of the NorthAmerican Cenozoic has previously been quantitatively summarizedin six sequential episodes of faunal associations—“evolutionary faunas”—that correspond well ... -
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 ... -
Spatial variability and response to anthropogenic pressures of assemblages dominated by a habitat forming seaweed sensitive to pollution (northern coast of Alboran Sea)
(Elsevier, 2016)The Cystoseira ericaefolia group is conformed by three species: C. tamariscifolia, C. mediterranea and C. amentacea. These species are among the most important habitat forming species of the upper sublittoral rocky shores ... -
Study of the presence and environmental risk of organic contaminants policed by the European Union and other organic compounds in the water resources of a region overlapping protected areas: The Guadiaro River basin (southern Spain)
(Elsevier, 2023-11)The study presented here is a first qualitative assessment of the occurrence of organic contaminants contemplated and not yet contemplated in European Union environmental legislation in water resources in the little ... -
Studying hydrogeochemical processes to understand hydrodiversity and the related natural and cultural heritage. The case of Los Hoyos area (South Spain)
(Elsevier, 2022-09)The protection of geodiversity has been gaining interest during the last decades. However, the study of hydrodiversity has been much less developed than other aspects of the geological heritage (lithology, mineralogy, ... -
Sutural complexity and body size in Cretaceous ammonoids: Macroevolutionary decoupling of correlated features
(Elsevier, 2022-04)The relationship between sutural complexity (estimated as fractal dimension) and body size is analysed for a sample of 204 genera of Cretaceous ammonoids. Although both characteristics are significantly correlated with ... -
Towards a better understanding of flow-related processes in the vertically distributed compartments of karst aquifers by combining natural tracers and stable isotopes
(Elsevier, 2023)Understanding infiltration pathways throughout the different compartments of karst systems (soil-epikarst-unsaturated zone-saturated zone) is vital to assess recharge processes, vulnerability to pollution, and the general ... -
Two bloom-forming species of Ulva (chlorophyta) show different responses to seawater temperature and no antagonistic interaction.
