Rasgos climáticos, relieve y vegetación en tierras valencianas a través de la mirada de Cavanilles

Estudios Geográficos, 2006
Se aborda una interpretación del contenido bioclimático de las Observaciones de Cavanilles (1795-1797) que permite plantear una caracterización de las tierras valencianas en diferentes temples y sus matices.

Assessing differences among elasmobranch nurseries to aid conservation based on a genomics framework

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Elasmobranch nurseries often differ in environmental conditions, demographics, and use patterns. These differences affect the distribution of genetic variation among nurseries. However, conservation and management strategies often fail to account for such differences because they are difficult to characterize.

Aleatoriedad de las series instrumentales de precipitación en España: otro caso en el que no se detecta el «cambio climático»

Estudios Geográficos, 2003
[es] Dado el carácter aleatorio tanto estadístico como geográfico de la distribución de la precipitación en España desde que existe registro instrumental, puede afirmarse que, de la aplicación de estas simples pruebas no cabe hablar de cambio climático ...

Reconsidering the role of introduced species in the climate‐affected and highly invaded eastern Mediterranean

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bioinvasions are considered mostly as a biodiversity and conservation hazard, but in specific situations, introduced species can bring ecological or socioeconomic benefits. We assessed the social–ecological role of marine introduced species in the eastern Mediterranean Sea—a global hotspot of bioinvasions and extirpations—and their potential ...

Comparative review of entanglement risk assessments for cetacean conservation and management

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cetacean entanglement in fishing gear remains a major global threat that exposes persistent gaps in how fisheries management frameworks manage risk to nontarget species. Ecological risk assessment (ERA) offers a structured way to link exposure and consequences to an explicit statement of risk, but entanglement risk assessments vary widely in ...

A global assessment of animal community responses to agricultural management

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Transitions in agricultural management through crop and noncrop diversification on intensively managed croplands or pastures have benefited biodiversity. However, the extent to which agricultural management benefits species communities present in undisturbed ecosystems remains largely unclear.

Elementos conceptuales y metodológicos para la Evaluación de Impactos Ambientales Acumulativos (EIAAc) en bosques subtropicales. El caso del este de Salta, Argentina

Ecología Austral, 2011
En el norte argentino se ha producido una fuerte expansión agropecuaria a costa del desmonte de bosques xerofíticos. En la Provincia de Salta, entre 1977 y 2008 se desmontó 26% del total de bosques existentes.

Tracking the impact of bottom trawling on benthic habitat status

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bottom trawling is the most widespread physical disturbance to marine benthic habitats, yet broadscale assessments of its impact remain limited. We developed a quantitative framework to evaluate trawling effects on benthic habitats at broad spatial scales based on the sentinels of seabed (SoS) indicator.

Changes in the transformative potential of action proposals in Finnish Red Lists from 1986 to 2019

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Red lists provide critical knowledge regarding biodiversity decline, especially in Finland, where broad assessments have been made regularly since the 1980s. They deliver information on the threat status of species and ecosystems, propose actions to guide conservation policy, and have the potential to spur transformative change.

Institutional lessons from the Nordic management model

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract To improve wildlife management outcomes, in terms of reaching management goals and increasing legitimacy, Nordic countries have developed institutional systems involving stakeholders that aim for a more inclusive and participatory model.
