Conservational status and demographic characteristics of Patella ferruginea Gmelin, 1791 (Mollusca, Gastropoda) on the Alboran Island (Western Mediterranean) [PDF]
Due to the high risk of the global extinction in which Patella ferruginea Gmelin, 1791 is found, it is considered of great interest to describe and quantify its demographic characteristics in those sites where it still persists, as well as to evaluate ...

Estimation of heading gyrocompass error using a GPS 3DF system: Impact on ADCP measurements
Traditionally the horizontal orientation in a ship (heading) has been obtained from a gyrocompass. This instrument is still used on research vessels but has an estimated error of about 2-3 degrees, inducing a systematic error in the cross-track velocity ...

Comparison between Eulerian diagnostics and finite-size Lyapunov exponents computed from altimetry in the Algerian basin [PDF]
Transport and mixing properties of surface currents can be detected from altimetric data by both Eulerian and Lagrangian diagnostics. In contrast with Eulerian diagnostics, Lagrangian tools like the local Lyapunov exponents have the advantage of ...

Snapshot of macroalgae and fish assemblages in temperate reefs in the Southern European Atlantic Ecoregion [PDF]
Most of the biodiversity studies in the South European Atlantic Shelf ecoregion are limited to shallow subtidal or intertidal habitats, while deeper reef habitats, also of relevant ecological importance, are particularly understudied.

ABSTRACT The Mediterranean common dolphin (Delphinus delphis) presents an enigmatic natural history during the past centuries. Widely prevalent in the 19th and early 20th centuries, it faced a significant decline across most of the basin by the late 1960s caused by multiple anthropogenic threats, including culling, bycatch, prey depletion, and habitat ...

Fungal Species of Botryosphaeriaceae Associated With Avocado Dieback in Southern Spain
In southern Spain, water scarcity has favoured avocado diseases, causing branch dieback, mummified fruits and cankers. Between 2019 and 2022, 252 fungi were isolated; the most common were Neofusicoccum spp. and Lasiodiplodia sp. Their pathogenic role was confirmed, with Botryosphaeriaceae identified as the main cause of avocado dieback.

Rapid climatic variability in the west Mediterranean during the last 25 000 years from high resolution pollen data [PDF]
High-temporal resolution pollen record from the Alboran Sea ODP Site 976, pollen-based quantitative climate reconstruction and biomisation show that changes of Mediterranean vegetation have been clearly modulated by short and long term variability during
