Size mediated climate–growth relationships in Pinus halepensis and Pinus pinea

open access: yesTrees, 2009
Functional processes in trees undergo changes as the tree size increases, which may affect the response of trees to environmental factors. We tested tree-ring response to climate in four groups of trees, including large and small Pinus halepensis and Pinus pinea trees using cluster, principal component (PC) and dendroclimatological analysis.

Fluctuación estacional y dinámica microbiana en una catena afectada por el abandono del cultivo en la cuenca del Guadalentin (Murcia)

open access: yesPirineos: Revista de Ecología de Montaña, 1995
La distribución espacial de la actividad biológica muestra una clara influencia del uso del suelo. Las zonas con vegetación potencial, Pinus halepensis, tienen altos niveles de carbono microbiano (1.200 μg C g-1), mientras que los suelos situados entre ...

Effect of Fire Frequency on the Flammability of Two Mediterranean Pines: Link with Needle Terpene Content

open access: yesPlants, 2021
Flammability is a major factor involved in Mediterranean plant evolution that has led to the diversity of fire-related traits according to fire regimes and fire-adaptive strategies.

Nests in trees are as good as or better than cliffs for two formerly persecuted, primarily cliff nesting eagles in Spain: a cautionary tale in defining the habitat of range‐restricted or threatened species

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
In the late‐20th century, golden and Bonelli's eagles suffered population declines on the Iberian Peninsula, partly due to human persecution. Habitat assessments – especially for Bonelli's eagles – always found or assumed strong associations with cliffs that provided nesting sites.

Herbivore and mesocarnivore carcasses trigger divergent short‐term changes in soil properties

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Scavengers reshape nutrient cycles in soils under carrion. Compared to herbivore carcasses, smaller but longer‐lasting carnivore remains boost nutrient levels and microbial activity in dry soils. Abstract Animal corpses act as pulses of organic matter (OM) and serve a key zoogeochemical role by providing localized nutrient inputs to soils and thereby ...

History matters: previous land use changes determine post-fire vegetation recovery in forested Mediterranean landscapes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Land use changes and shifts in disturbance regimes (e.g. wildfires) are recognized worldwide as two of the major drivers of the current global change in terrestrial ecosystems.

Relationships Between European Wildcats and Domestic Cats in an Area of Sympatry: Exploring Key Conservation Questions on Hybridization and Disease Transmission

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
We have found evidence of behavioural barriers for both hybridization and disease transmission between European wildcats and domestic cats. This includes hierarchical interspecies exclusion enforced by wildcats, as well as sexual selection exerted by wildcat females.

A taxonomic tool for identifying needle remains of south-western European Pinus species of the Late Quaternary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This work provides a tool whereby the needle remains of native, south-western European Pinus spp. can be easily identified from species-specific epidermal features. To construct this tool, the needles of P. uncinata, P. sylvestris, P.
