Exploring waterborne viruses in groundwater: Quantification and Virome characterization via passive sampling and targeted enrichment sequencing
Aquifers, which provide drinking water for nearly half the world's population, face significant challenges from microbial contamination, particularly from waterborne viruses such as human adenovirus (HAdV), norovirus (NoV) ...
VII Jornada de Joves Investigadors de l’IdRA
L'aigua, element fonamental de la vida, esdevé la protagonista de la recerca científica multidisciplinària. En un món on la crisi hídrica amenaça amb desafiar la sostenibilitat de la societat i el benestar humà, l'exploració ...
I Jornada de Joves Investigadors de l'IdRA
La I Jornada de Joves investigadors és una primera iniciativa per fer aflorar i donar visibilitat a la recerca dels més joves, planter de les futures generacions de l'IdRA. La pròpia tasca organitzativa i científica de na ...

VIII Jornada de Joves Investigadors de l’IdRA
L’aigua ens connecta a tots amb tot. És present en cada racó de la nostra vida i alhora és un dels recursos més fràgils que tenim. Aquest any, més que mai, hem sentit la seva absència i la seva força: la sequera persistent ...
V Jornada de Joves Investigadors de l’IdRA
La situació de pandèmia global des de principis de l’any 2020 ha afectat les nostres vides i, també, el desenvolupament de les Jornades de Joves Investigadors de l’Institut de Recerca de l’Aigua (IdRA). Aquest acte, que ...
VI Jornada de Joves Investigadors de l’IdRA
La VI Jornada de Joves Investigadors de l'Institut de Recerca de l'Aigua (IdRA) es planteja, un cop més, com una oportunitat científica per a les noves veus expertes en estudis de l'aigua que formen part de la Universitat ...
IV Jornada de Joves Investigadors de l’IdRA
La IV Jornada de Joves Investigadors suposa la consolidació de la iniciativa duta a terme entre 2016 i 2018 amb les tres primeres jornades. Com aleshores, es tracta de fer aflorar i donar visibilitat a la recerca dels més ...
Analysing the contribution of intermittent rivers to beta diversity can improve freshwater conservation in Mediterranean rivers
In Mediterranean climate regions, intermittent rivers (IRs) harbor highly dynamic communities with species and trait composition changing over time and space. Simultaneously considering multiple biodiversity facets and a ...
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 ...
High-resolution (sub-decadal) pollen analysis of varved sediments from lake Montcortès (South-central pre-Pyrenees): a fine-tuned record of landscape dynamics and human impact during the last 500 years.
A high-resolution (average 6 years/sampling interval) palaeoenvironmental reconstruction using pollen, charcoal and non-pollen palynomorphs was carried out on annually laminated sediments of Lake Montcortès (southern ...
La Apuesta por el patrimonio histórico-artístico en el turismo de montaña. El caso del Pirineo Catalán.
[spa] La escasa presión humana sobre los espacios de alta montaña, de características físicas extremas, ha permitido mantener y conservar un patrimonio natural y cultural de innegable valor y atractivo que, con el paso del ...
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 ...
Grazing activities in the southern central Pyrenees during the last millenium as deduced from the non-pollen palynomorphs (NPP) record of lake Montcortès
Human activities during the last millennium have shaped most of the present-day landscapes. During this time, in the southern central Pyrenees several climate periods and phases of variable human disturbance have driven ...
Evaluation of uncertainties in mean and extreme precipitation under climate change for northwestern Mediterranean watersheds from high-resolution Med and Euro-CORDEX ensembles
The climate change impact on mean and extreme precipitation events in the northern Mediterranean region is assessed using high-resolution EuroCORDEX and Med-CORDEX simulations. The focus is made on three regions, Lez and ...
Human management and landscape changes at Palaikastro (Eastern Crete) from the Late Neolithic to the Early Minoan period
The intense cultivation of olives, together with the diversification and specification of crops has been hypothesized as a cornerstone in the socio-economic transformations occurred during the Early bronze age in Crete, ...
Dam regulation and riverine food-web sructure in a Mediterraenan river
Flow regimes are a major driver of community composition and structure in riverine ecosystems, and flow regulation by dams often induces artificially-stable flow regimes downstream. This represents a major source of ...
Constraints on political autonomy in decentralized Spain? Analysing the impact of territorial financing and governments' ideology on regional policy-making
This article analyses the impact of state decentralization on one aspect of territorial diversity, specifically on the policy discretion of regions, as an expression of their political autonomy for self-government. Our ...
