(Asociación Española para el Estudio del Cuaternario, 2021)El estudio del registro sedimentario holoceno del estuario de los ríos Tinto y Odiel (Huelva) se ha realizado históricamente por medio de sondeos y de afloramientos superficiales. Nuevos perfiles naturales en la Isla de ... -
Estimating textural fractions of the USDA using those of the International System: A quantile approach
(Elsevier, 2022-06-15)In soil science, the two most frequently used classification systems for the soil particle size distribution are the schemes by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the so-called International System (IS), ... -
Fish abundance estimation with imaging sonar in semi-intensive aquaculture ponds
(Elsevier, 2022-01-29)To know the abundance of fishes and their size distribution in the semi-intensive rearing systems in traditional ponds is an aspect key to plan and manage efficiently the sales lots. Usually this information is obtained ... -
Freshwater Fish Biodiversity in a Large Mediterranean Basin (Guadalquivir River, S Spain): Patterns, Threats, Status and Conservation
(MDPI, 2022-10)The Guadalquivir River Basin is one of the largest in the Iberian Peninsula and has a remarkable freshwater biodiversity. Although many studies on hydrological regimes or water quality have been conducted in this basin ... -
Geochemical and Volcanological Criteria in Assessing the Links between Volcanism and VMS Deposits: A Case on the Iberian Pyrite Belt, Spain
(MDPI, 2021)VMS deposits in the Iberian Pyrite Belt (IPB), Spain and Portugal, constitute the largest accumulation of these deposits on Earth. Although several factors account for their genetic interpretation, a link between volcanism ... -
Hydrogeochemical and mineralogical study of the ecological treatment of phosphogypsum leachates
(Universidad de Huelva, 2022)The production of phosphoric acid in the phosphate fertilizer industry, via the wet chemical attack of phosphate rock with sulfuric acid, generates an unwanted by-product known as phosphogypsum. This waste is mainly composed ... -
InSAR-based mapping of ground deformation caused by industrial waste disposals: the case study of the Huelva phosphogypsum stack, SW Spain
(Springer, 2022)Close to the city of Huelva, SW Spain, and near the Atlantic Ocean, there is a phosphogypsum (PG) stack that accumulates 100 Mt of wastes and extends over 1000 ha. The stack lies directly over estuarine unconsolidated ... -
Modelos de funcionamiento hidrogeoquímico de embalses afectados por AMD en base a indicadores biológicos. Interés y relevancia de las diatomeas en el caso de la Faja Pirítica Ibérica
(Universidad de Huelva, 2022)La construcción de embalses en regiones sometidas a climas áridos es una técnica habitualmente empleada para almacenar aguas para posterior uso urbano, agrícola e industrial. En el escenario que nos ocupa, suroeste de ... -
Patterns of Alcohol Consumption and Use of Health Services in Spanish University Students: UniHcos Project
(MDPI, 2022-05)The aim of the study was to examine the association of alcohol consumption patterns (hazardous alcohol use and binge drinking) and the use of emergency services and primary care consultations in university students. An ... -
Phosphogypsum weathering and implications for pollutant discharge into an estuary
(Elsevier, 2023)Approximately 100 million tons of phosphogypsum were stockpiled onto marsh soils of the Tinto River estuary (Huelva, SW Spain). This study focuses on the hydraulic response of the phosphogypsum stack to the different ... -
Population Dynamic of the Annual Halophyte Salicornia ramosissima in Salt Pans: Towards a Sustainable Exploitation of Its Wild Populations
(MDPI, 2022-06)Halophyte species growing under stressful conditions, such as the annual species of the Salicornia genus, have been recognized as a source of metabolites of pharmacological and nutraceutical interest. Therefore, planning ... -
Scientific Merits and Analytical Challenges of Tree‐Ring Densitometry
(2019)X‐ray microdensitometry on annually resolved tree‐ring samples has gained an exceptional position in last‐millennium paleoclimatology through the maximum latewood density (MXD) parameter, but also increasingly through other ... -
Sensitivity Analysis in Mean Annual Sediment Yield Modeling with Respect to Rainfall Probability Distribution Functions
(MDPI, 2023-01)An accurate estimation of the mean annual sediment yield from basins contributes to optimizing water resources planning and management. More specifically, both reservoir sedimentation and the damage caused to infrastructures ... -
