Assessing Viral Pollution in Seawater, Using Passive Samplers, Quantitative PCR and Target Enrichment Sequencing
Detecting pathogenic viruses in seawater presents significant challenges due to their typically low concentrations and the transient nature of contamination events. To address these challenges, this study evaluates passive ...
Exploring waterborne viruses in groundwater: Quantification and Virome characterization via passive sampling and targeted enrichment sequencing
Aquifers, which provide drinking water for nearly half the world's population, face significant challenges from microbial contamination, particularly from waterborne viruses such as human adenovirus (HAdV), norovirus (NoV) ...
VII Jornada de Joves Investigadors de l’IdRA
L'aigua, element fonamental de la vida, esdevé la protagonista de la recerca científica multidisciplinària. En un món on la crisi hídrica amenaça amb desafiar la sostenibilitat de la societat i el benestar humà, l'exploració ...
III Jornada de Joves Investigadors de l’IdRA
Coordinadors: Roser Marsal Aguilera i Albert Santasusagna Riu
IV Jornada de Joves Investigadors de l’IdRA
La IV Jornada de Joves Investigadors suposa la consolidació de la iniciativa duta a terme entre 2016 i 2018 amb les tres primeres jornades. Com aleshores, es tracta de fer aflorar i donar visibilitat a la recerca dels més ...
Early water management systems on the southern Transjordan plateau
[eng] The efficient management of water resources to supply the needs of societies in territories where water is a scarce and limited resource has been essential throughout time. The site of Sela on the southern Transjordan ...
Antibiotic resistance genes in phage particles isolated from human feces and induced from clinical bacterial isolates
Phage particles have emerged as elements with the potential to mobilize antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in different environments, including the intestinal habitat. The aim of this study was to determine the occurrence ...
Impact of permeate flux and gas sparging rate on membrane performance and process economics of granular anaerobic membrane bioreactors
This research investigated the impact of permeate flux and gas sparging rate on membrane permeability, dissolved and colloidal organic matter (DCOM) rejection and process economics of granular anaerobic membrane bioreactors ...
Influencia térmica antrópica local y global en el observatorio Fabra para el periodo 1924-2016
[spa] Se presenta una primera aproximación en la diferenciación de la contribución local y global en el incremento de la temperatura del aire en Barcelona. Para ello, se busca determinar la influencia local del área ...
Dam regulation and riverine food-web sructure in a Mediterraenan river
Flow regimes are a major driver of community composition and structure in riverine ecosystems, and flow regulation by dams often induces artificially-stable flow regimes downstream. This represents a major source of ...
Skilful forecasting of global fire activity using seasonal climate predictions
Societal exposure to large fires has been increasing in recent years. Estimating the expected fire activity a few months in advance would allow reducing environmental and socio-economic impacts through short-term adaptation ...
Antimony nanomaterials modified screen-printed electrodes for the voltammetric determination of metal ions
Exfoliated β-Sb or two dimensional (2D) antimonene-based modified screen-printed electrode (2D Sb-SPCE), prepared by drop-casting of an exfoliated layered β-antimony (2D Sb) suspension, was used for the simultaneous ...
Quality and quantity of leaf-litter: both are important for feeding preferences and growth of an aquatic shredder
The study of leaf litter as a resource for shredders has emerged as a key topic in trophic links in ecology. However, thus far, most studies have emphasized the leaf quality as one of the main determinants of shredder ...
A hybrid sensing system combining simultaneous optical and electrochemical measurements: application to beer discriminations
A hybrid sensing system, which combines simultaneous cyclic voltammetric (CV) and UV-vis absorbance measurements using a commercial carbon screen-printed electrode and a set of optical fibres in disposable cuvettes, is ...
Análisis económico de la Administración Tributaria
La Administración tributaria desempeña un papel fundamental en los sistemas fiscales. Lograr el cumplimiento voluntario de los contribuyentes y erradicar el fraude fiscal son los dos objetivos que toda Administración ...
Target enrichment metaviromics enables comprehensive surveillance of coronaviruses in environmental and animal samples
The COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the importance of understanding the role of animals in the transmission of coronaviruses (CoVs) and their impact on human health. A One Health approach, integrating human, animal, and ...
Effective dispersal and density-dependence in mesophotic macroalgal forests: Insights from the Mediterranean species Cystoseira zosteroides
Dispersal and recruitment are fundamental processes for population recovery following disturbances in sessile species. While both processes are well understood for many terrestrial species, they still remain poorly resolved ...
Reply to the Comment by David W. Morrow on 'Self-accelerating dolomite-for-calcite replacement: Self-organized dynamics of burial dolomitization and associated mineralization'
We welcome David W. Morrow's Comment to our article Merino and Canals (2011) (MC-2011 hereafter), in which we presented a new model of burial dolomitization. Morrow raises several questions and sees conflicts of some of ...
Moradebrichthys vilasecae gen. et sp. nov., a new perleidid (Actinopterygii: Osteichthyes) from the Middle Triassic of Catalonia (NE Iberian Peninsula)
A new actinopterygian, Moradebrichthys vilasecae gen. et sp. nov., from the Middle Triassic (Late Ladinian) of Móra d'Ebre-Camposines (Catalonia, NE Iberian Peninsula) is erected on the basis of several, almost complete, ...
