Effect of irrigation on carbonate dynamics in a calcareous soil using isotopic determinations
Este artículo evalúa el efecto del regadío en la dinámica de los carbonatos en suelos agrícolas. Se ha estudiado la proporción y distribución de carbonatos pedogénicos en las fracciones granulométricas de un suelo en regadío ... -
Effect of slaughter age and finishing diet on sensory evaluation and consumers’ preference of foal meat
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria (INIA), 2019) Artículo / ArtikuluaAim of study: This study focused on the sensory evaluation and consumer preferences of foal meat depending on the animal slaughter age (13 and 26 months) and finishing diet (standard and linseed concentrate). Area of study: ... -
Effect of stoniness on the hydraulic properties of a soil from an evaporation experiment using the wind and inverse estimation methods
Stony soils are distributed all over the world. The study of their characteristics has gained importance lately due to their increasing use as agricultural soils. The effect that rock fragments exert on the soil hydraulic ... -
Effect of the presence of ethyl lauroyl arginate on the technological properties of edible fish gelatin films
Physical, chemical and antimicrobial properties of fish gelatin films with different 19 concentrations of ethyl lauroyl arginate (LAE) were studied. Optical properties 20 of film-forming solution did not vary with increased ... -
Effects of exercise in addition to a family-based lifestyle intervention program on hepatic fat in children with overweight
OBJECTIVE Pediatric hepatic steatosis is highly prevalent and closely related to type 2 diabetes. This study aimed to determine whether the addition of supervised exercise to a family-based lifestyle and psycho-educational ... -
Effects of leucine-enriched whey protein supplementation on physical function in post-hospitalized older adults participating in 12-weeks of resistance training program: a randomized controlled trial
Age-related strength and muscle mass loss is further increased after acute periods of inactivity. To avoid this, resistance training has been proposed as an effective countermeasure, but the additional effect of a protein ... -
Evolution and assessment of a nitrate vulnerable zone over 20 years: Gallocanta groundwater body (Spain)
(Springer, 2020) Artículo / ArtikuluaNitrate pollution from agricultural sources is one of the biggest issues facing groundwater management in the European Union (EU). During the last three decades, tens of nitrate vulnerable zones (NVZ) have been designated ... -
Expression of key myogenic, fibrogenic and adipogenic genes in Longissimus thoracis and masseter muscles in cattle
Adipogenesis, myogenesis and fibrogenesis are related processes that can contribute to meat quality. Therefore, extending the knowledge of these processes would facilitate the identification of molecular markers that predict ... -
Feasibility of using rural waste products to increase the denitrification efficiency in a surface flow constructed wetland
(Elsevier, 2019) Artículo / ArtikuluaA surface flow constructed wetland (CW) was set in the Lerma gully to decrease nitrate (NO3-) pollution from agricultural runoff water. The water flow rate and NO3 - concentration were monitored at the inlet and the outlet, ... -
Formando futuras investigadoras: introduciendo la ciencia ecológica y ambiental al mundo escolar
A pesar de su relevancia social creciente, la ciencia ecológica y ambiental está pasando por momentos muy bajos en los programas educativos de secundaria y bachillerato en nuestro país. En muchos centros escolares, la ... -
From conception to infancy: early risk factors for childhood obesity
Maternal lifestyle during pregnancy, as well as early nutrition and the environment infants are raised in, are considered relevant factors for the prevention of childhood obesity. Several models are available for the ... -
Grey water footprint as an indicator for diffuse nitrogen pollution: the case of Navarra, Spain
(Elsevier, 2019) Artículo / ArtikuluaNitrogen is an essential element for plant growth, while its application and associated pollution is a worldwide concern. Generally, diffuse source pollution and its impacts on ecosystem health are difficult to monitor and ... -
Hepatic fat content and bone mineral density in children with overweight/obesity
Objectives: To examine the influence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and hepatic fat content on bone mineral density (BMD), and to investigate whether the relationship between NAFLD and BMD is independent of ... -
Impact of cow's milk intake on exercise performance and recovery of muscle function: a systematic review
Dairy products are thought to improve recovery after both resistance and endurance exercises due to their nutritional proprieties. We systematically reviewed the effects of dairy product intake on exercise performance and ... -
Impact of incorporating greenhouse gas emission intensities in selection indexes for sow productivity traits
Genetic improvement programmes should incorporate emerging challenges about environmental concerns into breeding goals. The large volume of pig meat production implies important greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions despite its ... -
Influence of physical activity on bone mineral content and density in overweight and obese children with low adherence to the Mediterranean dietary pattern
The objective of the present cross-sectional study was to examine the associations of physical activity and the adherence to the Mediterranean dietary pattern (MDP) with bone mineral content (BMC) and density (BMD) in ... -
Influence of surface roughness measurement scale on radar backscattering in different agricultural soils
Soil surface roughness strongly affects the scattering of microwaves on the soil surface and determines the backscattering coefficient (σ 0 ) observed by radar sensors. Previous studies have shown important scale issues ... -
Influence of surface roughness sample size for C-band SAR backscatter applications on agricultural soils
Soil surface roughness determines the backscatter coefficient observed by radar sensors. The objective of this letter was to determine the surface roughness sample size required in synthetic aperture radar applications and ... -
Landscape in motion: revisiting the role of key disturbances in the preservation of mountain ecosystems
La historia del planeta es una historia dinámica, de continuo cambio. Los responsables de la gestión del medio natural se enfrentan actualmente ante un paisaje muy cambiante debido a las condiciones de cambio global (cambio ... -
