Factors Contributing to the Long-Term Sea Level Trends in the Iberian Peninsula and the Balearic and Canary Islands

open access: yesGeosciences, 2023
We present an attempt to estimate the long-term changes in Relative Sea Level (RSL), in addition to the different factors contributing to such trends on a local and regional scale, using a statistical linear model.

New Fishing Strategies to Face Climate Change Effects on the Spanish Tropical Tuna Fisheries Off Indian Ocean

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, Volume 34, Issue 6, Page 17-26, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Tropical tunas, including yellowfin (Thunnus albacares), are recognized as a crucial contributor to global food security. Moreover, yellowfin tuna is the most commercially valuable tropical tuna. The Spanish purse seine freezer fleet, actively operating in the Indian Ocean, emerges as a leading contributor to the global yellowfin tuna catch ...

Environmental and human factors shape the trophic ecology of a widespread marine predator

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, Volume 94, Issue 9, Page 1784-1799, September 2025.
Our study reveals how environmental factors and fishing pressure influence swordfish diet, highlighting trophic shifts under future climate scenarios. We provide a novel framework to strengthen our ability to plan for and manage the redistribution of species under global change ensuring that the energetic needs of predators are met.

A New Varunid Subfamily (Decapoda, Brachyura, Grapsoidea, Varunidae) for Crabs From European and West African Waters, With the Description of Two New Genera and Two New Species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2025.
Morphological and DNA sequencing studies of Varunidae specimens, previously considered to belong to the genus Asthenognathus, from eastern Atlantic waters have allowed the description of two new genera and two new species. From a molecular point of view, it is shown that they belong to a new subfamily, distinct from Asthenognathinae and that there are ...

Mortality of Marine Turtles Bycaught in Industrial Fisheries Operating Off North‐Western Africa

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 35, Issue 3, Page 1-10, March 2025.
ABSTRACT We use data collected by onboard observers to assess the bycatch and immediate mortality of sea turtles in the Canary Current Large Marine Ecosystem (CCLME) and adjoining areas from 2016 to 2021. First, a dataset including 698 sets by drifting longliners, 6300 tows by trawlers and 1029 sets by purse seiners was used to calculate the catch per ...
