We measured thermal heterogeneity in one of these ponds and discussed its relationship with development time and thermal tolerance in three observed species. Leer más.





Un equipo del CSIC consigue por primera vez tratar la quitidriomicosis, afección que diezma las poblaciones de anfibios, sin necesidad de retirar los animales del agua. Los investigadores aplicaron un fungicida agrario en el agua donde se reproducen los anfibios sin observar trazas del producto ni efectos significativos en la química y biología del agua. Leer más.
In this study, we used ecological niche models to evaluate which regions are more vulnerable to colonization by alien turtles and tortoises and which alien chelonians show substantial environmental overlap with native species. Leer más.
We conceived solutions for achieving these goals under different plausible future scenarios, and identified four interrelated recommendations around which any long-term strategy for managing invasive species can be structured: (1) a European biosecurity regime, (2) a dedicated communication strategy, (3) data standardization and management tools, and (4) a monitoring and assessment system.

Our findings show that the ground effect may critically alter frequency attenuation and, therefore, signal composition and discrimination at the listener’s location, even at low heights above the ground. Leer más.
