Population‐specific bycatch risks in two vulnerable anadromous clupeids: Insights from otolith microchemistryNARA Subscribed
Otolith microchemistry analysis revealed that bycatch of European shads, allis shad Alosa alosa and twaite shad Alosa fallax , in western Iberian commercial fisheries removes individuals from a wide array of natal origins, with the most abundant source rivers suffering the heaviest losses. Spatial variation in bycatch risk was evident: Specific marine areas exhibited high natal origin diversity, reflecting complex dispersal. A...
Conventional and Environmental Life Cycle Costing of Water Resource Recovery FacilitiesNARA Subscribed
This study assessed the economic implications of extending conventional life cycle costing (cLCC) to environmental LCC (eLCC) in circular water resource recovery facilities (WRRFs) in Portugal, Cyprus, and Spain. By integrating monetized environmental impacts from life cycle assessment, internal costs, and external environmental costs, normalized per m 3 of wastewater inflow, are compared. Operational costs were dominated by e...
Key factors of the deranged antiviral response in elderly patients with COVID-19: a machine-learning analysisNARA Subscribed
Age is a well-known risk factor to develop severe viral respiratory infections, including severe COVID-19. This study aimed to identify the biological alterations linked to severe disease in elderly patients with COVID-19. For this purpose, we employed a derivation cohort with 450 SARS-CoV-2 infected and unvaccinated patients admitted to hospital wards and a validation cohort with 244 SARS-CoV-2 infected and unvaccinated patie...
Changes in lithic raw material and technological management during the Mesolithic: a view from El Mazo (Northern Iberia)NARA Subscribed
This study investigates the lithic industry at the Mesolithic shell midden site of El Mazo (Andrín, Asturias), on the Asturian coastline in Northern Iberia, focusing on resource management, production strategies, and mobility patterns of the last hunter-gatherer-fishers. El Mazo provides a unique opportunity to examine lithic resource use across the Early-Middle Holocene transition, with a particular emphasis on the dynamic of...
Cloud Forest Tree Growth Responses to Climate and Drought Vary by Island and Species in the Macaronesian RegionNARA Subscribed
Aim Macaronesian cloud forests are insular ecosystems subjected to local environmental variability, but the responses of their tree species to climate variations have never been studied. Our aim was to assess how the variation in environmental conditions associated with the geographical location of several islands in three Macaronesian archipelagos affects the growth patterns and drought‐resistance of the dominant cloud forest...
Key conservation actions for European steppes in the context of the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity FrameworkNARA Subscribed
The Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (KM–GBF) envisions a world living in harmony with nature by 2050, with 23 intermediate targets to be achieved by 2030. However, aligning international policy and national and local implementation of effective actions can be challenging. Using steppe birds, one of the most threatened vertebrate groups in Europe, as a model system, we identified 36 conservation actions for the a...
Purposes Enterococcal BSI is associated with significant morbidity and mortality, with fatality rates of approximately 20–30%. There are microbiological and clinical differences between E. faecalis and E. faecium infections. The aim of this study was to investigate differences in predisposing factors for E. faecalis and E. faecium BSI and to explore prognostic factors. Methods This study was a post-hoc analysis of PROBAC, a Sp...
Graphene-based versus alumina supports on CO2 methanation using lanthanum-promoted nickel catalystsNARA Subscribed
The valorization of CO 2 as a biofuel, transforming it through methanation as part of the power-to-gas (P2G) process, will allow the reduction of the net emissions of this gas to the atmosphere. Catalysts with 13 wt.% of nickel (Ni) loading incorporated into alumina and graphene derivatives were used, and the effect of the support on the activity was examined at temperatures between 498 and 773 K and 10 bar of pressure. Among...
