Structural changes in the interannual variability of extreme autumn precipitation in eastern Spain and the weakening of synoptic forcing

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Total autumn precipitation in eastern Spain remains stable between 1950 and 2024, masking a substantial internal redistribution between ordinary and extreme rainfall. While torrential precipitation (Rp95) increases and ordinary precipitation (Ro) decreases, the extreme contribution index (Cext) shows a significant positive trend and a structural shift ...

Multi‐Platform Deployments of Low‐Cost Devices for Cetacean Passive Acoustic Monitoring

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Recent advances in affordable, user‐friendly devices offer new opportunities to overcome cost constraints of underwater passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) and expand acoustic data collection. In this study, we deployed low‐cost acoustic recorders and underwater cameras across a range of platforms in the Western Mediterranean, including fishing gear ...

Root Calcretes and Uranium-Bearing Silcretes At Sedimentary Discontinuities In the Miocene of the Madrid Basin (Toledo, Spain) [PDF]

Journal of Sedimentary Research, 2013
Abstract:  This paper reports a detailed study of the calcrete and silcrete profiles in the Miocene detrital deposits in the western area of Madrid, at the boundary of two main sedimentary units. The aims of this work were to better understand the pedogenic and diagenetic environments in which these profiles formed and to determine ...

Evaluating the Role of Social Capital for the Design of Sustainable River Governance Strategies: The Case of Tagus River

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the role of social capital in designing and implementing more effective governance strategies to improve the state of the Tagus River's significantly deteriorated middle reach (Spain). We employed social network analysis (SNA) to evaluate the bonding, bridging and linking social capital and the quality of stakeholder ...

A Methodological Pathway for Supporting the Transition From Theory to Practice in Action‐Oriented Research for Transformative Change

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over recent decades, action‐oriented research has gained prominence in co‐producing actionable knowledge to drive transformative change toward sustainability. However, further methodological developments are needed to support the transition to the application phase of such knowledge.

Native habitat affinities predict fish invasions with post‐invasion habitat shifts

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Initial invasion success is gated by native pre‐adaptations, but post‐invasion establishment is characterized by habitat shifts. We demonstrate that forecasting risk based solely on native niches severely underestimates future ecological impacts, and we provide an empirically validated watchlist of future invaders.

The Edification of Manuela Xiqués: Slavery, Finance, Biography, and the Construction of Modern Barcelona

Gender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An analysis of the dual biographies, economic and domestic, of Manuela Xiqués, an enslaver from nineteenth‐century Cuba and Spain, deepens our understanding of the role of European and Creole women in the nineteenth‐century Atlantic. This essay foregrounds the role of literature, namely family biography, as a locus of the processes of ...

Hybridization With a Non‐Native Congener Threatens the Catalan Chub (Squalius laietanus): Optimization of a DNA‐Based Early Warning Tool

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Hybridization with non‐native congeners threatens endemic freshwater fishes. Using a rapid and cost‐effective nuclear DNA assay, we detected widespread hybridization between the Catalan chub (Squalius laietanus) and the non‐native European chub (Squalius cephalus) across S.

Forecasting ecological trajectories from ecological dynamic regimes to improve resilience analysis

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract The ecological dynamic regime (EDR) framework was recently proposed as an alternative to equilibrium‐based approaches for assessing ecological resilience in empirical systems, explicitly incorporating dynamic regimes as a reference for assessing the system's deviation during disturbances.
