Potential Adaptive Introgression From Dogs in Iberian Grey Wolves (Canis lupus). [PDF]

open access: yesMol Ecol
ABSTRACT Invading species along with increased anthropogenization may lead to hybridization events between wild species and closely related domesticates. As a consequence, wild species may carry introgressed alleles from domestic species, which is generally assumed to yield adverse effects in wild populations.

Policy integration of climate change adaptation in Central America: A review for development, land‐use planning, and risk management

open access: yesLatin American Policy, Volume 14, Issue 4, Page 534-567, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Central American countries have been described as highly exposed to the negative effects of climate change (CC). Policies dedicated to CC and climate policy integration—mainstreaming—into sectoral policies have been considered key strategies.

Overview of factors influencing consumer engagement with plastic recycling

open access: yesWIREs Energy and Environment, Volume 12, Issue 6, November/December 2023., 2023
Factors influencing consumer behavior in plastic waste recycling. Abstract Many semi‐durable and durable consumer goods are composed of plastic. Yet, plastic pollution is one of the most pressing environmental issues as it harms oceans and marine biodiversity. This state of affairs is worsened because plastic recycling rates remain low.

Interspecific differences in microhabitat use expose insects to contrasting thermal mortality

open access: yesEcological Monographs, Volume 93, Issue 2, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Ecotones linking open and forested habitats contain multiple microhabitats with varying vegetal structures and microclimatic regimes. Ecotones host many insect species whose development is intimately linked to the microclimatic conditions where they grow (e.g., the leaves of their host plants and the surrounding air).

Linking animal behaviour and tree recruitment: Caching decisions by a scatter‐hoarder corvid determine seed fate in a Mediterranean agroforestry system

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 111, Issue 2, Page 400-411, February 2023., 2023
The consequences of seed caching for seedling early establishment are driven by a fine decision‐making process of the disperser. Magpies seemed to ponder the characteristics of the habitat and the seed itself to determine where and how to cache each nut. By doing so, magpies reinforced the quality of seed dispersal effectiveness, as they cached walnuts

Fortress Europe 4.0? An analysis of EU data governance through the lens of the resource regime concept

open access: yesEuropean Policy Analysis, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 484-504, Fall 2022., 2022
Abstract This paper leverages the resource regime concept to systematically analyze the shape of data governance established by European Union (EU) digital policy. It highlights what gives shape and coherence to this data governance across different policies and how this governance structures relations between actors in the data economy.

Habitat loss increases seasonal interaction rewiring in plant–pollinator networks

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 36, Issue 10, Page 2673-2684, October 2022., 2022
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Understanding the flexibility of interactions and network rewiring (i.e. reassembly of interactions due to partner‐switching) is necessary to comprehend how future anthropogenic changes will affect interspecific interactions and the functioning of communities.

Assessing the effectiveness of public health interventions for Covid‐19 in Greece and Cyprus

open access: yesEuropean Policy Analysis, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 345-359, Summer 2022., 2022
Abstract In this article, we statistically examine the effectiveness of non‐pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) implemented by the national governments of Greece and Cyprus during 2020 to (a) limit the spread of the SARS‐CoV‐2 virus, and (b) mitigate the economic fallout brought about by the Covid‐19 pandemic.

Polyploidy promotes divergent evolution across the leaf economics spectrum and plant edaphic niche in the Dianthus broteri complex

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, Volume 110, Issue 3, Page 605-618, March 2022., 2022
Our results indicated shifts in ecological strategies across Dianthus broteri cytotypes and suggested a powerful role of polyploidy in overcoming constraints for the evolution of plant functional traits. Abstract The evolution of the leaf economics spectrum (LES) is known to be constrained by genetic relatedness but also promoted at small geographical ...

Looking for the earliest evidence of Ursus arctos LINNAEUS, 1758 in the Iberian Peninsula: the Middle Pleistocene site of Postes cave

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 159-184, January 2022., 2022
Brown bears (Ursus arctos) diverged from the cave bear lineage c. 1.2 million years ago and likely originated in Asia, where the oldest fossils belong to a Middle Pleistocene chronology. Brown bear fossils from the Middle Pleistocene are scarce in the Iberian Peninsula, especially when compared to the cave bear record and they are mainly located in the
