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 ...
Assessing environmental exposure to viruses in wastewater treatment plant and swine farm scenarios with next-generation sequencing and occupational risk approaches
Occupational exposure to pathogens can pose health risks. This study investigates the viral exposure of workers in a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) and a swine farm by analyzing aerosol and surfaces samples. Viral ...
Photosynthesis, resource acquisition and growth responses of two biomass crops subjected to water stress
This study compares photosynthesis, growth, 13C and 15N labelling patterns of two biomass crops (Arundo donax L. and Panicum virgatum L.) grown under water stress in greenhouse conditions. Plants were exposed to three water ...
Impact of food waste composition on acidogenic co-fermentation with waste activated sludge
The impact of food waste (FW) composition on co-fermentation performance was studied to elucidate if adjusting FW composition can be used to drive the fermentation yield and profile, which is relevant for biorefinery ...
Significado científico y valor patrimonial del glaciar histórico del Corral del Veleta (Sierra Nevada). Scientific value and natural heritage of the historical glacier of the Veleta cirque (Sierra Nevada)
Resumen. El reducto glaciar del Corral del Veleta fue el más importante de los desarrollados en Sierra Nevada durante la Pequeña Edad del Hielo (PEH) permaneciendo visible hasta mediados del siglo xx. En la actualidad, ...
The relationship between precipitation and insurance data for floods in a Mediterranean region (northeast Spain)
Floods in the Mediterranean region are often surface water floods, in which intense precipitation is usually the main driver. Determining the link between the causes and impacts of floods can make it easier to calculate ...
The Podonominae pupae (Diptera: Chironomidae) of the tropical high Andean rivers.
The Podonominae is a subfamily of Chironomidae which immature stages inhabit cold streams and brooks. In South America, most of the species have been reported only from the Andean/Patagonian subregion. However, the knowledge ...
Changes in summer pressure patterns across the late 1960s and their influence on temperature trends on the Eastern coast of the Iberian Peninsula
During the second half of the 20th century, in the littoral and pre-littoral areas of the Valencia region, the diurnal temperature range (DTR) registered a significant drop in summer (July and August). Meanwhile, in the ...
Are there so many congeneric species of chironomid larvae in a small stream?
The co-occurrence of larvae of congeneric chironomid species is common in natural stream assemblages, and raises the problem of finding mechanisms to explain the co-existence of species with similar ecological requirements. ...
La Transformación del mundo agrario en un territorio turístico de montaña. Las comarcas de Alta Ribagorça, Aran y Pallars Sobirà.
[spa] En el Pirineo catalán, partiendo de una economía tradicional de base ganadera y forestal, el territorio se ha especializado desde la perspectiva económica en el sector terciario; hecho que también ha supuesto importantes ...
1st Water, Landscape & Society in the Past Conference (WaLS Conference)
El presente libro electrónico actúa como compendio general de las aportaciones científicas al 1st Water, Landscape & Society in the Past Conference (WaLS Conference), llevado a cabo los días 9 y 10 de octubre de 2025 en ...
Modified distribution in the polyphenolic profile of rosemary leaves induced by plant inoculation with an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus
BACKGROUND: Rosemary forms an arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis with a group of soilborne fungi belonging to the phylum Glomeromycota, which can modify the plant metabolome responsible for the antioxidant capacity and ...
Evaluation of a virus concentration method based on ultrafiltration and wet foam elution for studying viruses from large-volume water samples
Assessing the presence of viruses in large-volume samples involves cumbersome methods that require specialized training and laboratory equipment. In this study, a large volume concentration (LVC) method, based on dead-end ...
Enhanced terahertz sensitivity for glucose detection with a hydrogel platform embedded with Au nanoparticles
We presented a strategy for enhancing the sensitivity of terahertz glucose sensing with a hydrogel platform pre-embedded with Au nanoparticles. Physiological-level glucose solutions ranging from 0 to 0.8 mg/mL were measured ...
Considerations on the use of spectroelectrochemistry in reflection mode for quantitative analysis: Study of the Fe(III)/Fe(II) - orthophenanthroline system
Theoretical and experimental considerations are made about possible analytical applications of spectroelectrochemistry (SEC) in reflection mode using screen-printed electrodes. The system Fe(III)/Fe(II) - orthophenanthroline ...
Multivariate standard addition for the analysis of overlapping voltammetric signals in the presence of matrix effects: Application to the simultaneous determination of hydroquinone and catechol
A multivariate version of the classical univariate standard addition method is tested as a proof of concept for the voltammetric analysis of complex samples generating overlapped signals in the presence of significant ...
Evaluation of synthesis conditions for plastic scintillation foils used to measure alpha- and beta-emitting radionuclides
Plastic scintillation foils of polystyrene and polycarbonate with a thickness between 45 and 200 μm, have been produced using the solvent evaporation method. PSfoils presented a reproducible thickness (10-20%). PSfoils ...
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 ...
