Accurate estimation of chlorophyll-a concentration in the coastal areas of the Ebro Delta (NW Mediterranean) using sentinel-2 and Its application in the selection of areas for mussel aquaculture
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2022-10-19)
Article
Open AccessMultispectral satellite remote sensing imagery, together with appropriate modeling, have been proven to provide chlorophyll-a maps that are useful to evaluate the suitability of coastal areas for carrying out shellfish ... -
Assessing nature based solutions for managing coastal bays
(2020-05)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThis work investigates the hydrodynamic response of two small and shallow bays located in the Ebro Delta, in order to solve the problems affecting mussel farms, such as the high temperatures reached in the summer period ... -
Assessment of aquaculture rafts exposure at river-borne substances using numerical modelling
(2022)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyCoastal bays and estuaries with aquaculture activity may show spatial variability on the exposure at river-borne substances such as nutrients, pesticides or pollutants. In function of the relative geographical position of ... -
Challenges for shellfish aquaculture in Mediterranean coastal areas
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2023-12-18)
Doctoral thesis
Open Access(English) The increase in the production of marine bivalves targets the sustainable development of aquaculture to improve global food and nutrition security. Bivalve aquaculture is currently facing challenges and threats ... -
Combined flooding and water quality monitoring during short extreme events using Sentinel 2: the case study of Gloria storm in Ebro delta
(2022-05-17)
Article
Open AccessShort extreme events have significant impact on landscape and ecosystems in low-lying and exposed areas such as deltaic systems. In this context, this paper proposes a combined methodology for the mapping and monitoring ... -
First results of phytoplankton spatial dynamics in two NW-Mediterranean bays from chlorophyll-a estimates using sentinel 2: potential implications for aquaculture
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2019-07-25)
Article
Open AccessShellfish aquaculture has a major socioeconomic impact on coastal areas, thus it is necessary to develop support tools for its management. In this sense, phytoplankton monitoring is crucial, as it is the main source of ... -
Short-term response of chlorophyll a concentration due to intense wind and freshwater peak episodes in estuaries: The case of fangar Bay (Ebro Delta)
(2021-03-05)
Article
Open AccessEstuaries and coastal bays are areas of large spatio-temporal variability in physical and biological variables due to environmental factors such as local wind, light availability, freshwater inputs or tides. This study ... -
The endoparasite perkinsus olseni affecting the mediterranean mussels (mytilus galloprovincialis) in the italian and spanish waters: A new possible threat for mussel aquaculture and wild animal population
(Frontiers Media, 2023-02-24)
Article
Open AccessDinoflagellates belonging to the Perkinsus genus are OIE (World Organization for animal Health)-listed pathogens extremely virulent for clams and oysters in many marine ecosystems throughout the world. During the monitoring ... -
Use of a hydrodynamic model for the management of water renovation in a coastal system
(2019-03)
Article
Open AccessIn this contribution we investigate the hydrodynamic response in Alfacs Bay (Ebro Delta, NW Mediterranean Sea) to different anthropogenic modifications in freshwater flows and inner bay–open sea connections. The fresh water ...
