Conservation benefits of a large marine protected area network that spans multiple ecosystemsNARA Subscribed
Marine protected areas (MPAs) are widely implemented tools for long‐term ocean conservation and resource management. Assessments of MPA performance have largely focused on specific ecosystems individually and have rarely evaluated performance across multiple ecosystems either in an individual MPA or across an MPA network. We evaluated the conservation performance of 59 MPAs in California's large MPA network, which encompasses...
Temporal evolution of the performance evaluation of the laboratories at Spanish nuclear power plants in water samplesNARA Subscribed
This study examined the performance evaluation and analysis of the laboratories of Spanish Nuclear Power Plants over the last 9 years of the 34 editions organized by CIEMAT. The participating nuclear power plants were Almaraz, Ascó I, Ascó II, Cofrentes, Santa María de Garoña, Trillo, and Vandellós II. The radionuclides analyzed were those necessary to ensure operational radiological protection and the control of liquid efflue...
A marine protected area network does not confer community structure resilience to a marine heatwave across coastal ecosystemsNARA Subscribed
Marine protected areas (MPAs) have gained attention as a conservation tool for enhancing ecosystem resilience to climate change. However, empirical evidence explicitly linking MPAs to enhanced ecological resilience is limited and mixed. To better understand whether MPAs can buffer climate impacts, we tested the resistance and recovery of marine communities to the 2014–2016 Northeast Pacific heatwave in the largest scientifical...
Plant community impact on productivity: Trait diversity or key(stone) species effects?NARA Subscribed
Outside controlled experimental plots, the impact of community attributes on primary productivity has rarely been compared to that of individual species. Here, we identified plant species of high importance for productivity (key species) in >29,000 diverse grassland communities in the European Alps, and compared their effects with those of community‐level measures of functional composition (weighted means, variances, skewness...
In coastal marine food webs, seagrass‐grazer interactions play a fundamental role in ecological processes by regulating the structure and functioning of plant communities. Therefore, assessing the strength of these seagrass‐grazer links and identifying the mechanisms that regulate these relationships are crucial to increasing our understanding of community and ecosystem structure and dynamics. Herbivory on the temperate seagra...
Use of Polyphosphates and Soluble Pyrophosphatase Activity in the Seaweed Ulva pseudorotundataOA Marine
The hydrolytic activity of different types of polyphosphates, and the induction of soluble pyrophosphatase (sPPase; EC 3.6.1.1) activity have been assessed in cell extracts of nutrient limited green seaweed Ulva pseudorotundata Cormaci, Furnari & Alongi subjected to different phosphorus regimes. Following a long period of nutrient limitation, the addition of different types of (poly)phosphates to artificial seawater enhanced g...
