The extreme floods in the Ebro River basin since 1600 CE [PDF]
Reliable and complete knowledge of the historical floods is necessary for understanding the extreme hydrological dynamics of the rivers, their natural variability and anthropic changes. In this work we reconstruct the most important floods of the Ebro basin during the last 400 years in different areas of the basin.

River Deltas as hotspots of microplastic accumulation: The case study of the Ebro River (NW Mediterranean) [PDF]
Microplastics (MPs) are considered pollutants that are ubiquitously distributed in aquatic environments. One of the key hotspot areas to understand fluxes of MPs entering into the oceans are transitional systems, between fresh and marine waters, where river estuaries in particular play an important role.

Pesticides in the Ebro River basin: Occurrence and risk assessment
In this study, 50 pesticides were analyzed in the Ebro River basin in 2010 and 2011 to assess their impact in water, sediment and biota. A special emphasis was placed on the potential effects of both, individual pesticides and their mixtures, in three trophic levels (algae, daphnia and fish) using Risk Quotients (RQs) and Toxic Units (TUs) for water ...

Environmental flow management: An analysis applied to the Ebro River Basin [PDF]
Environmental flows (EF) define the quantity, timing and quality of river flows needed to preserve freshwater ecosystems while assuring the continuity of human use. Insofar as they reduce water availability and condition agricultural and industrial uses, EF represent a constraint, but they also hold out new opportunities for development.

Artificial Irrigation Impacts the Seasonal Occurrence of Pathogenic Leptospira in Its Wild Reservoirs in a Mediterranean Environment. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Human activities play a significant role in the emergence of infectious diseases. We aimed to test whether artificial irrigation affects the occurrence of a zoonotic bacteria sensitive to desiccation, pathogenic Leptospira species (pathoLep), in micromammals inhabiting Mediterranean ecosystems.

Increases in species richness cause decreases in phylogenetic diversity in Mediterranean and Temperate plant assemblages. [PDF]
Abstract The relationship between taxonomic and phylogenetic diversities remains underexplored. Our goal was to determine whether a causal link exists between species richness and phylogenetic diversity and to determine the direction of this relationship.
