Climatological Hydrographic Properties and Water Mass Transports in the Balearic Channels From Repeated Observations Over 1996–2019

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
The longest time series of CTD transects available in the Mallorca and Ibiza Channels (1996–2019) are presented. These hydrographic sections have a three-monthly periodicity and allow to resolve the seasonal cycle of water mass properties.

Regionalization and Multidecadal Change in the Southern Canary Current Large Marine Ecosystem

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The current delineation of the southern Canary Current Large Marine Ecosystem fisheries management zones responds only to political divisions rather than ecological features or a combination of both. In this paper, we implemented three time series analysis techniques on spatially explicit daily and monthly resolved data sets from satellite and

Evidence of Genetic Continuity in the Shortfin Mako Shark (Isurus oxyrinchus) Between the Eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Genomic analyses of shortfin mako sharks from the Eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea reveal a single genetically mixed population, indicating high connectivity across basins. Demographic reconstruction suggests historical stability, though recent declines may be beyond the resolution of our markers. These results underscore the need for coordinated
