Six Decades of Hindsight Into Yesa Reservoir (Central Spanish Pyrenees): River Flow Dwindles as Vegetation Cover Increases and Mediterranean Atmospheric Dynamics Take Control

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 59, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Abstract River discharge has experienced diverse changes in the last decades due to modification of hydrological patterns, anthropogenic intervention, re‐vegetation or annual and interannual climatic and atmospheric fluctuations. Assessing the recent changes in river discharge and understanding the main drivers of these changes is thus extremely ...

Short‐distance nocturnal migration in an island endemic bustard

open access: yesIbis, Volume 164, Issue 4, Page 1145-1159, October 2022., 2022
Migratory birds typically fly long distances in response to large‐scale seasonal climate variation. However, most migratory species are partial migrants, and some fly only short distances, for example to take advantage of suitable feeding conditions during the non‐breeding season.

Economic Sustainability of Irrigation‐Dependent Ecosystem Services Under Growing Water Scarcity. Insights From the Reno River in Italy

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 58, Issue 2, February 2022., 2022
Abstract As water scarcity grows, irrigators are adopting modern irrigation systems to increase the proportion of water use consumed by crops and mitigate impacts on production. This increased beneficial consumption is fundamentally sourced by lower return flows‐runoff and percolation‐back into the environment, which are critical to sustain wetlands ...

From Flood to Drip Irrigation Under Climate Change: Impacts on Evapotranspiration and Groundwater Recharge in the Mediterranean Region of Valencia (Spain)

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2021., 2021
Abstract Agricultural irrigation is the major water consumer in the Mediterranean region. In response to the growing pressure on freshwater resources, more efficient irrigation technologies have been widely promoted. In this study, we assess the impact of the ongoing transition from flood to drip irrigation on future hydroclimatic regimes under various
