Towards automated long-term acoustic monitoring of endangered river dolphins: a case study in the Brazilian Amazon floodplains
(Springer Nature, 2023-07-27)
Article
Open AccessUsing passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) and convolutional neural networks (CNN), we monitored the movements of the two endangered Amazon River dolphin species, the boto (Inia geoffrensis) and the tucuxi (Sotalia fluviatilis) ... -
Present and future flooding and erosion along the NW Spanish Mediterranean Coast
(Frontiers Media, 2023-07)
Article
Open AccessCoastal flooding and eros-ion caused by extreme events are the main factors responsible for beach hazards. This effect will be exacerbated by the sea level rise induced by climate change. The present work determines the ... -
Ship strike risk for fin whales (balaenoptera physalus) off the Garraf coast, northwest Mediterranean Sea
(Frontiers Media, 2022-04-27)
Article
Open AccessShip strikes are a widespread conservation issue for many cetacean species globally. Population level impacts depend on the occurrence and severity of collisions, which may lead to life altering injuries or fatalities. ... -
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 ... -
Study of atmospheric forcing influence on harbour water renewal
(2023-05)
Article
Open AccessIn this study, we use observations and numerical simulations to investigate the effect of meteorological parameters such as wind and atmospheric pressure on harbour water exchanges. The modelled information is obtained ... -
Automatic detection and classification of coastal Mediterranean fish from underwater images: good practices for robust training
(Frontiers Media, 2023-04-05)
Article
Open AccessFurther investigation is needed to improve the identification and classification of fish in underwater images using artificial intelligence, specifically deep learning. Questions that need to be explored include the ... -
A new coastal crawler prototype to expand the ecological monitoring radius of OBSEA cabled observatory
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023-04-18)
Article
Open AccessThe use of marine cabled video observatories with multiparametric environmental data collection capability is becoming relevant for ecological monitoring strategies. Their ecosystem surveying can be enforced in real time, ... -
Seasonal impact of grazing, viral mortality, resource availability and light on the group-specific growth rates of coastal Mediterranean bacterioplankton
(Nature, 2020)
Article
Open AccessEstimation of prokaryotic growth rates is critical to understand the ecological role and contribution of different microbes to marine biogeochemical cycles. However, there is a general lack of knowledge on what factors ... -
Near-bed sediment transport processes during onshore bar migration in large-scale experiments: comparison with offshore bar migration
(Wiley, 2023-03)
Article
Open AccessDetailed information on nearshore sediment transport processes during onshore bar migration were obtained from large-scale laboratory experiments with bichromatic wave groups on a relatively steep initial beach slope (1:15). ... -
Influence of the initial beach profile on the sediment transport processes during post-storm onshore bar migration
(2023-04)
Article
Open AccessOnshore bar migration is a characteristic bar behavior during post-storm beach recovery. The present large-scale experiments, feature bichromatic wave groups over an initially steep (1:15), fully-evolving beach. The same ... -
Impact of organic soil amendments in antibiotic levels, antibiotic resistance gene loads, and microbiome composition in corn fields and crops
(2022-11)
Article
Open AccessThe potential spreading of antibiotic resistance genes (ARG) into agricultural fields and crops represent a fundamental limitation on the use of organic fertilization in food production systems. We present here a study of ... -
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 ...
