We studied the distribution, abundance and size structure of three limpet species (Patella rustica, Patella candei crenata aspera) throughout rocky intertidal zone Canary Archipelago. used a stratified hierarchical sampling strategy that involved study zones (high, intermediate low intertidal) across eight islands with random locations per island randomly selected sites within locations. did not observe any specimens P. candei. For entire archipelago, least abundant was (0.02±0.05...
The aim of this study was to assess the use Osilinus atrata (Gastropoda, Mollusca) as a biomonitor heavy metals (Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn) within coastal zone Canary Islands. In general, top-shell snail showed high intraspecific variability in its tissue metal concentrations, which decreased according following sequence: Cu≥Zn>Cd≥Pb. particular, Cd Zn concentrations were higher males than females, whereas Cu increased slightly with weight, decreased. notable spatial variability; eastern islands...
The goal of this study was to determine the consistency vertical distribution patterns predatory whelk, Stramonita haemastoma, in rocky intertidal zone Canarian Archipelago (eastern Atlantic) across a hierarchy five orders magnitude horizontal spatial variability (from tens m hundreds km). In general, species showed consistent zonation pattern islands, with majority specimens (74.65%) found mid zone. This result most likely reflects whelk’s preference for habitat large amount potential prey...

A hierarchical sampling design was used to study the population structure and horizontal (differences among islands, locations within islands sites locations) vertical intertidal bands) distribution patterns of gastropod molluscs Osilinus atrata O. sauciatus along rocky zone Canary Islands. Differences in spatial abundance, size were recorded for both species. more abundant than throughout archipelago. Its abundance varied it presented a heterogeneous bands from one island another, though...
This article focuses on results obtained from two cloud-based models that examine trade-offs between security, scalability, and efficiency of data collection for Internet-of-Things sensor networks. work can provide insight systems designers in choosing security controls scalability features when working with cloud services. The were a smart home prototype system which records in-home sensors are transmitted wirelessly to an hub, forwards them web service storage analysis. We consider...

Nowadays, indigenous molluscs are being utilized more and as biomonitors.Thus, in order to assess the concentrations of Cd, Cu, Pb Zn Canarian Archipelago (Spain), we have two species limpets (Patella rustica Patella candei crenata).We also tested relationship between metal levels biometric parameters such size weight.The mean total Pb, P. were 0.37 ± 0.05, 1.77 0.09, 1.27 0.07 8.84 0.71 µg g -1 dry wt.(mean S.E.) respectively; whereas crenata follows; 0.10, 2.94 0.11, 0.09 0.01 33.74 1.15...
The rock crab Grapsus adscensionis (Osbeck, 1765) is a common intertidal species in the eastern Atlantic. Little known, however, about status of its population because relatively recent taxonomic separation from grapsus. Adult abundance G. was sampled throughout Canary Islands (24 sites total) March and October 2003 2004. Abundance varied significantly at intermediate scales (sites spaced by tens kilometers) but not larger (islands separated to hundreds kilometers). Habitat complexity...
Nowadays, gastropod molluscs are being utilized more and as bioindicator organisms.Similarly, harmful metals on human health such cadmium have been widely studied.The Canarian Archipelago (specifically the eastern islands) is constantly bathed by African coastal upwelling, provoking oceanographic biological differences between islands.This process could assume an increase in Cd concentration their waters biota.Thus, order to assess this fact, we measured concentrations soft parts of two...
