It is virtually impossible to reliably assess water quality with target chemical analyses only. Therefore, a complementary effect-based risk assessment by bioanalyses on mixtures of bioavailable micropollutants proposed: the Smart Integrated Monitoring (SIMONI) strategy. The goal this strategy obtain more reliable information select optimum measures for improvement. SIMONI 2-tiered. Tier 1 bioanalytical hazard identification sites. A tier 2 ecological carried out only at limited number sites...
Global stores of important resources such as phosphorus (P) are being rapidly depleted, while the excessive use nutrients has led to enrichment surface waters worldwide. Ideally, would be recovered from wastewater, which will not only prevent eutrophication but also provide access alternative nutrient stores. Current state-of-the-art wastewater treatment technologies effective in removing these yet they can recover P and often an insufficient way. Microalgae, however, effectively assimilate...
Abstract Human-driven changes affect nutrient inputs, oxygen solubility, and the hydrodynamics of lakes, which biogeochemical cycles mediated by microbial communities. However, information on succession microbes involved in nitrogen cycling seasonally stratified lakes is still incomplete. Here, we investigated nitrogen-transforming microorganisms Lake Vechten over a period 19 months, combining 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing quantification functional genes. Ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA)...
Abstract Context Planted pine forests are highly abundant communities in the Mediterranean Basin. Being result of past reforestation, these show high species and structural homogeneity. Diversification to conifer-broadleaved mixed is recommended promote adaptation climate change increase their resilience perturbations. Objectives This study aims at evaluating how planted will develop future as a combined impacts management climate. Methods We applied forest landscape model (LANDIS-II)...
This dataset provides information about infestation caused by the pine processionary moth (Thaumetopoeapityocampa ([Denis & Schiffermüller], 1775)) in pure or mixed woodlands and plantations Andalusia. It represents a long-term series (1993-2015) containing 81,908 records that describe occurrence incidence of this species. Data were collected within monitoring programme known as COPLAS, developed Regional Ministry Environment Territorial Planning Andalusian Government frame Plan de Lucha...
The use of spatially interactive forest landscape models has increased in recent years. These are valuable tools to assess our knowledge about the functioning and provisioning ecosystems as well essential allies when predicting future changes. However, developing necessary inputs preparing them for research studies require substantial initial investments terms time. Although model initialization calibration often take largest amount modelers’ efforts, such processes rarely reported...
Pine plantations, very common in the Mediterranean basin, are recurrently affected by forest pests due to intrinsic characteristics (high density, low spatial heterogeneity) and external factors (consistent trend towards a warmer drier climate). INSTAR is an Agent-Based Model aiming simulate population dynamics of Thaumetopoea pityocampa pest. The model has been designed using modular approach: several interconnected modules (submodels) facilitate incorporation new knowledge about pest...
Abstract Research infrastructures (RIs) are tools intended to be a fundamental pillar in producing knowledge regarding the functioning of Earth’s vital systems. However, it is unclear what extent these instruments can help deal with global biodiversity challenges. This paper presents first assessment alignment between services provided by environmental RIs, and requested address three specific Global Challenges concerning loss at level: threatened species, alien species ecosystem...
