Learning takes time: Biotic resistance by native herbivores increases through the invasion process. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Lett, 2022
As invasions progress, so does the familiarity of native consumers towards invaders. This leads to an increase in the strength of consumer‐resource interactions and can contribute to the control of invader populations. Interestingly, high sociality within native consumers can increase the transmission of information on palatability, shortening the time

Enhancing nursing care through technology and standardized nursing language: The TEC-MED multilingual platform. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Nurs Knowl
Abstract Purpose This study describes the design, integration, and semantic interoperability process of a minimum data set using standardized nursing language in the caring module of the TEC‐MED care platform. Methods The caring module was developed in three phases (2020–2022): platform concept, functional design and construction, and testing and ...

Vulnerability of marine megafauna to global at-sea anthropogenic threats. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol
Abstract Marine megafauna species are affected by a wide range of anthropogenic threats. To evaluate the risk of such threats, species’ vulnerability to each threat must first be determined. We build on the existing threats classification scheme and ranking system of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened ...

Life in the fast lane: Revisiting the fast growth—High survival paradigm during the early life stages of fishes

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 863-888, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Early life survival is critical to successful replenishment of fish populations, and hypotheses developed under the Growth‐Survival Paradigm (GSP) have guided investigations of controlling processes. The GSP postulates that recruitment depends on growth and mortality rates during early life stages, as well as their duration, after which the ...

Global warming facilitates the nesting of the loggerhead turtle on the Mediterranean coast of Spain

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, Volume 26, Issue 3, Page 365-380, June 2023., 2023
Average summer sand temperature (July 20th–August 10th) at 40 cm deep in Spanish Mediterranean beaches, as reconstructed from air temperature at El Prat beach, has increased from 1950 to 2019 (top figure). As a result, the duration of the viable nesting window for loggerhead turtles (bottom figure) has also increased and the thermal environment has ...

Assessing place‐based identities in the early Middle Ages: a proposal for post‐Roman Iberia

open access: yesEarly Medieval Europe, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 23-50, February 2023., 2023
Sociological models of place‐based identity can be used to better understand the social dynamics of local communities and how they interact with their surroundings. This paper explores how these theoretical models of belonging to a place, in tandem with communal cognitive maps, can be applied to post‐Roman contexts, taking the Iberian Peninsula in the ...

Functional diversity of macroinvertebrates as a tool to evaluate wetland restoration

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 58, Issue 12, Page 2999-3011, December 2021., 2021
Considering different aspects of functional diversity of invertebrate communities can help elucidate the processes and mechanisms through which ecosystems recover following restoration. We encourage the use of trait‐based approaches to identify trends in processes and patterns that can guide future wetland restoration projects.

The role of competition and herbivory in biotic resistance against invaders: a synergistic effect

open access: yesEcology, Volume 102, Issue 9, September 2021., 2021
Abstract Invasive species pose a major threat to global diversity, and once they are well established their eradication typically becomes unfeasible. However, certain natural mechanisms can increase the resistance of native communities to invaders and can be used to guide effective management policies.

Temporal evolution of temperatures in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden based on in situ observations (1958–2017) [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Science, 2020
The Red Sea holds one of the most diverse marine ecosystems in the world, although fragile and vulnerable to ocean warming. Several studies have analysed the spatio-temporal evolution of temperature in the Red Sea using satellite data, thus focusing only
