ABSTRACT Climate change significantly threatens biodiversity, particularly in freshwater ecosystems, which host many endemic and threatened species. Among them, aeglids stand out as strictly endemic, ecologically important and highly threatened crustaceans, making them a relevant model for investigating the impacts of climate change on aquatic ...

Abstract Environmental and human factors shape the distribution and habitat of Mediterranean woody plants, influencing their population structure and conservation. The Iberian wild pear (Pyrus bourgaeana), a keystone fleshy‐fruited species supporting wildlife during resource‐scarce periods, is one such example.

Abstract We present a field‐data rich modelling analysis to reconstruct the climatic forcing, glacier response, and runoff generation from a high‐elevation catchment in central Chile over the period 2000–2015 to provide insights into the differing contributions of debris‐covered and debris‐free glaciers under current and future changing climatic ...

ABSTRACT Aim Genetic connectivity and local adaptation were examined across the distribution of the freshwater sponge Ephydatia muelleri. Because it occupies an exceptional breadth of freshwater environments across a broad geographic range, this species offers key insights into biogeographic processes shaping genetic structure and adaptation in inland ...

A New Fuel Design for Two Different HW Type Reactors
A new fuel element (called CARA) designed for two different heavy water reactors (HWRs) is presented. CARA could match fuel requirements of both (one CANDU and one unique Siemens′s design) Argentine HW reactors. It keeps the heavier fuel mass density and hydraulic flow restriction in both reactors together with improving both thermomechanic and ...

Modeling nature‐based restoration potential across aquatic–terrestrial boundaries
Abstract Today, few watersheds remain untouched by global change processes arising from climate warming, impoundments, channelization, water extraction, pollution, and urbanization. The need for restoration has resulted in a myriad of interventions, generally performed at small scales, which have limited measurable impact in restoring biodiversity and
