Spatio-temporal patterns of meteorological droughts in the Balearic Islands (Spain)

Cuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2016
The Balearic Islands is a region highly prone to suffer meteorological and hydrological droughts, mainly due to the high intra- and inter-annual variability of precipitation, and the high water consumption associated to summer touristic pressure. In this work we aim to characterize the spatial and temporal characteristics of meteorological droughts in ...

Genetic and oceanographic tools reveal high population connectivity and diversity in the endangered pen shell Pinna nobilis [PDF]

, 2018
For marine meta-populations with source-sink dynamics knowledge about genetic connectivity is important to conserve biodiversity and design marine protected areas (MPAs). We evaluate connectivity of a Mediterranean sessile species, Pinna nobilis.

Contribution of mean climate to hot temperature extremes for present and future climates

Weather and Climate Extremes, 2020
The occurrence of very high temperatures (hot extremes) is often linked with negative impacts in human health, natural ecosystems and the economy (e.g., energy, water supply and agriculture). Studies have invariably shown that the intensity and frequency
