POSIDONIArXiv is an EU HORIZON MSCA project that combines environmental DNA (eDNA)—DNA fragments left by organisms in water and sediments—biogeochemical analysis, and ecological network analysis
DengRIP is a community-centered project addressing dengue and other arboviral diseases in West Africa through improved mosquito surveillance, risk prediction, and vector control. It combines scientific research, citizen participation, and local capacity building to strengthen outbreak preparedness in urban areas such as Ouagadougou.
BREATHE develops a global, sensor-based system to monitor river health through dissolved oxygen and river metabolism, linking ecosystem functions to services such as climate regulation and water purification.
This project is being developed within the framework of an i-COOP grant, a CSIC Scientific Cooperation Program for Development, which aims to stimulate collaboration between CSIC research groups and international research groups in countries receiving Official Development Assistance through training, work, and specialization stays for research groups from participating entities.
Aquatic non-native species are spreading globally due to human activity, yet little is known about how these invasions occur and evolve. This pioneering project uses environmental DNA (eDNA) to study the phases of biological invasion in various aquatic ecosystems, aiming to better understand these processes and provide tools to tackle the biodiversity crisis.
The esGLEON project promotes Spain’s involvement in the global scientific network GLEON to study and mitigate the effects of climate change on lakes and reservoirs, by coordinating research teams, strengthening international leadership, and supporting sustainable water management policies.
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.
By analyzing the different stages of an invasion (from introduction to expansion), the researchers seek to identify the factors that influence the success of invasive species in various aquatic environments.
Monitoring of marine biodiversity using environmental DNA (eDNA) techniques, early detection of exotic species with invasive potential, and other genomic applications that can be used for marine biodiversity conservation.
