Purpose Systematic collection and analysis of antimicrobial resistance data from key bacterial pathogens is essential to contribute to control antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The aim of this work was to survey the drug resistance on clinically relevant organisms stratified according to age, gender, clinical specimens and facilities. Methods Microbiological data were collected from 55 centers across 24 states in Mexico between...

Freshwater ecosystems are among the most threatened globally, yet remain under‐monitored in many regions, particularly in South America. Traditional monitoring approaches, while scientifically rigorous, are often limited by logistical, financial, and institutional constraints. While several citizen science initiatives have advanced freshwater habitat assessment in Europe (e.g., FreshWater Watch) and North America (e.g., EPA's...

Recent studies have compiled all records of new fish species discovered between 2017 and 2025 in two regions of Spanish Mediterranean waters: the Strait of Gibraltar–Alboran Sea (ESAL) and the Levantine–Balearic Sea (LEBA). These studies compared the mean temperatures and thermal ranges (minimum and maximum temperatures) at which these newly recorded species lived in their original distribution zones with the preferred tempera...

Scheduling between mates in species with long-term pair bonds can be essential for positive fitness. The annual cycle in photoperiod is the primary environmental cue used by many animals to synchronize behavior and physiology among members of a population, and animals that migrate must have similar annual schedules to ensure successful breeding. However, we know little about whether members of mated pairs in migratory species...

Introduction Offshore wind energy development (OWED) has been identified as a major contributor to the aspired growth in Norwegian renewable energy production. Spatially explicit vulnerability assessments are necessary to select sites that minimize the harm to biodiversity, including seabird populations. Distributional data of seabirds in remote areas are scarce, and to identify vulnerable areas, species, and seasons it is nec...

The Instituto Español de Oceanografía (IEO, Spanish Institute of Oceanography) has maintained different monitoring programs in the Spanish Mediterranean waters (Western Mediterranean) since 1992. All these monitoring programs were unified in 2007 under the current program RADMED (series temporales de datos oceanográficos en el Mediterráneo), which is devoted to the in situ multidisciplinary sampling of the water column of coas...

Objective Demographic changes encompass societies to maintain the work ability (WA) of aging workforces. The present study explored the relationship between modifiable lifestyle factors, cognitive functions, and their influence on WA, using a multi-group structural equation approach. Method Cross-sectional data from 247 middle-aged and 236 older employees from the Dortmund Vital Study were included in this analysis. We propose...

Specimens of Aplysia punctata inhabiting the Catalonian coast (NE Spain, Western Mediterranean Sea) display two different color patterns, which have been thought to represent two distinct species. However, molecular analyses conducted by other authors and confirmed herein show that there are no genetic differences between individuals of the two color morphs. At the same time, these color morphs display distinct life history tr...
