• Connecting Natural and Planted Forests: New Ecological Functions in an Agricultural Landscape in Northern Spain 

  Brazuelo Núñez, Javier; Rivas, Carlos A.; Palacios-Rodríguez, Guillermo; Navarro Cerrillo, Rafael M. (MDPI, 2025)

  The connectivity of forest ecosystems is increasingly recognized as a key factor in evaluating the sustainability of forest management, with significant implications for biodiversity conservation. This study examines the ...

• Long-Term Effects of No-Tillage on Arthropod Biodiversity in Rainfed and Irrigated Annual Crops 

  Moreno-García, Manuel; Repullo Ruibérriz de Torres, Miguel Ángel; Ordóñez Fernández, Rafaela; González Sánchez, Emilio Jesús; Carbonell-Bojollo, Rosa (MDPI, 2024)

  Numerous studies show that tillage has a negative impact on the future sustainability of annual crops. Possible negative effects include the loss of arthropod biodiversity on the soil surface. In this context, a comparative ...

• Resilience of Pinus pinea L. Trees to Drought in Central Chile Based on Tree Radial Growth Methods 

  Loewe Muñoz, Verónica F.; Río, Rodrigo del; Delard, Claudia; Cachinero-Vivar, Antonio M.; Camarero, J. Julio; Navarro-Cerrillo, Rafael M.; Balzarini, Mónica (MDPI, 2024)

  The increasing occurrence of dry and hot summers generates chronic water deficits that negatively affect tree radial growth. This phenomenon has been widely studied in natural stands of native species but not in commercial ...

• Less suitable climatic conditions and pests increase tree defoliation in Spanish Iberian Peninsula forests 

  Sánchez Agudo, José Ángel; Parra, Juan Luis; Cruz Román, Jhony Fernando; Hernandez Lambraño, Ricardo Enrique (Elsevier, 2024)

  Forest vulnerability to climate change is expected to differ between species and across species ranges. Therefore, it is important to develop tools that can standardize the variability in regional climate patterns and ...

• Where to start? Development of a spatial tool to prioritise retrofitting of power line poles that are dangerous to raptors 

  Hernandez Lambraño, Ricardo Enrique; Sánchez Agudo, José Ángel; Carbonell, Roberto (British Ecological Society, 2018)

  1. La electrocución de numerosas aves en la red de distribución eléctrica es una de las principales amenazas para muchas especies de aves a una escala global. Recientemente se han desarrollado modelos de riesgo de electrocución ...
