How do water inputs from both tributaries and groundwater change the processes happening in the river? The research project investigates this question and aims to find the key contribution areas to define the processes of rivers in different biomes. It includes field work and controlled experimentation in the CEAB-CSIC infrastructure.

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.
