The land–sea coastal border: a quantitative definition by considering the wind and wave conditions in a wave-dominated, micro-tidal environment [PDF]
A quantitative definition for the land–sea (coastal) transitional area is proposed here for wave-driven areas, based on the variability and isotropy of met-ocean processes.

New records of Piscicola geometra (Linnaeus 1758) (Hirudinea, Piscicolidae) in Ebro River Basin (N Spain). [PDF]
This note represents a contribution to the knowledge of the presence of the fish leech Piscicola geometra (Linnaeus 1758) (Hirudinea, Piscicolidae) in the Ebro River Basin. This species was collected in two rivers in the Ebro River Basin.

Nature-Human-River Relationships at the Ebro River and its Delta (Spain)
The Ebro is one of the largest river basins in Southern Europe, with an area of 85,000 km2, a river length of 930 km, and a population of more than three million people. Since ancient times, it has not only been a resource, but also a channel for communication, commerce and the settlement of great civilizations along its course.

Reservoir impacts downstream in highly regulated river basins: the Ebro delta and the Guadalquivir estuary in Spain [PDF]
Regulation by reservoirs affects both the freshwater regime and the sediment delivery at the area downstream, and may have a significant impact on water quality in the final transitional water bodies. Spain is one the countries with more water storage

Modeling circulation patterns induced by spatial cross-shore wind variability in a small-size coastal embayment [PDF]
This contribution shows the importance of the cross-shore spatial wind variability in the water circulation in a small-sized micro-tidal bay. The hydrodynamic wind response at Alfacs Bay (Ebro River delta, NW Mediterranean Sea) is investigated with a ...

The El Masnou Infralittoral sedimentary environment (Barcelona province, NW Mediterranean Sea): morphology and Holocene seismic stratigraphy [PDF]
A detailed analysis of the morphology and the Holocene seismic and sequence stratigraphy and architecture of the infralittoral sedimentary environment of the El Masnou coast (Catalonia, NW Mediterranean Sea) was carried out using multibeam bathymetry and

Identification, prediction and mitigation of sinkhole hazards in evaporite karst areas [PDF]
Sinkholes usually have a higher probability of occurrence and a greater genetic diversity in evaporite terrains than in carbonate karst areas. This is because evaporites have a higher solubility, and commonly a lower mechanical strength.
