Given the recent detection of Perkinsus infecting mussels cultivated in the aquaculture area of the Ebro Delta and the lack of knowledge regarding its diversity, distribution, and ecology, this project aims to assess the epidemiological status of the disease Perkinsosis in the mussel aquaculture sector in Catalonia, in order to understand its potential impact.
A project that applies genetics to study biodiversity in marine ecosystems and detect invasive species.
InventWater will form a new generation of professionals capable of uniting fields with data science, climate, hydrology and water ecology, and who develop the necessary capabilities to translate the knowledge and technical innovations into useful products for the managers.
The main objective is to combine artificial reefs based on the innovative Biorock technology with filter-feeding or suspension-feeding benthic organisms (e.g., sponges, ascidians, annelids, scleractinians, hydroidolines, bryozoans) to bioremediate coastal seabeds.
The great heterogeneity in individual behavior as well as between different groups translates into a variability in human-mosquito interaction, and therefore in a variability in the risk of disease transmission. This relationship not only depends on the density of mosquitoes and people in an area but on many other factors.
INTERACTOMA proposes computational approaches that exploit the co-occurrence of genes with known and unknown function and the environmental co-occurrence of different microbial species to generate hypotheses and prioritize future research objectives with ecological or biotechnological interest, using saline lakes and lakes as model systems. alpines, as well as the microbiome of animal and plant host species along climatic and geographic gradients.
Per dotar els robots submarins de més autonomia i capacitats, aquest projecte busca millorar i potenciar les seves capacitats cognitives i intel·ligents durant l’exploració del fons marí. SIREC treballarà en primer lloc el mapeig de praderies marines de Posidonia oceànica, un component important dels ecosistemes vinculats al segrest de carboni i, per tant, de gran impacte ambiental i social.
Determining whether ecosystems act as sources or sinks of carbon (C) is essential to mitigate the consequences of climate change and to carry out restoration actions and environmental policies that help us confront the climate crisis.
