Integrated multitrophic aquaculture (IMTA) emerges as a sustainable strategy to control the excess of solids and inorganic nutrients that tend to increase in the biofloc system (BFT) cycle, since the model integrates organisms from different trophic levels sharing the same system and nutrients. Thus, this study compared a Penaeus vannamei monoculture system with an integrated biofloc system including Mugil liza, Holothuria gri...

Salt marshes are considered among the ecosystems with the highest capacity for carbon sequestration. However, studies have mainly focused on tidal salt marshes, while knowledge about non-tidal salt marshes, which prevail in the Mediterranean Basin, is currently scarce. Consequently, we aimed to (1) estimate the carbon stocks of the vegetation, litter, and soil of three natural Habitats of Community Interest of a Mediterranean...

We used a nonintrusive field experiment carried out at six sites – Wales (UK), Denmark (DK), the Netherlands (NL), Hungary (HU), Sardinia (Italy – IT), and Catalonia (Spain – SP) – along a climatic and latitudinal gradient to examine the response of plant species richness and primary productivity to warming and drought in shrubland ecosystems. The warming treatment raised the plot daily temperature by ca. 1 °C, while the droug...
