The Marine Crustacean Collection (CRUST-IEOCD), in turn made up of two sub-collections: 1) Collection of Decapod and Stomatopod Crustaceans (CCDE-IEOCD) and 2) Collection of Other Crustaceans (OCRUST-IEOCD). The CCDE-IEOCD sub-collection arose from the need to identify specimens of crustaceans from campaigns carried out by the IEO in African waters. Since 2005 specimens began to be collected, with 2011 being the year in which an exhaustive taxonomic review was carried out, from which the collection was officially created. It currently has 5,570 specimens cataloged and made available to Gbif. These are mostly specimens from trawling surveys carried out by the IEO in African waters off Morocco, Mauritania, Senegal, Gambia, Guinea-Bissau, Guinea, Equatorial Guinea, Namibia and Mozambique, other surveys carried out in Spanish waters of the Gulf of Cadiz or Cantabrian Sea, or in the Bank of Porcupine (Ireland). It also houses specimens from the 1950s, donated by the Andalusian Institute of Marine Sciences (ICMAN-CSIC). The OCRUST-IEOCD sub-collection is a recently created collection, with the aim of expanding the COCAD collection to other crustaceans, such as Amphipods, Isopods, Tanaidaceans, etc. Data from this collection has not yet been made available in Gbif. In addition, it is intended to have a molecular database (DNA barcode) of all the species deposited in the CRUST-IEOCD, as well as the storage of all the voucher specimens used for the codifications.

Professor of interns at the Universities of Málaga and Alcalá.
She is a reviewer for the journals Polar Biology, Journal of Natural History, Zootaxa, JMBA and Zoologische Mededelingen, and editor of WoRMS (World Porifera Database).
Currently Senior Scientist in the Oceanographic Centre of Gijon (IEO-CSIC)
In the last five years, her lines of research have been directed to studies related to biodiversity, and to the characterization and conservation of benthic communities in Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems (VMEs), both in the Cantabrian Sea and in the Arctic, Canada, Indian Ocean or Patagonia. A very special section of this line of work has been occupied by the structuring species associated with VMEs that present a fragile structure of biological origin, such as coral reefs and sponge grounds. They are the bioconstructor species that, due to their morphology and development, they create environments that can be used to host other species. The research effort carried out and in the coming years also aims to know and conserve the benthic communities that make up the VMEs, which is essential even to guarantee the sustainability of fishery resources.

The group conducts research projects related to the factors and mechanisms that determine the resilience of marine benthic ecosystems face to the global change impacts. To this end the group adopted a multidisciplinary ranging from taxonomy and systematics, to species biology, structure and dynamics of populations and communities, both benthic and planktonic, and the relationship of biological processes with environmental factors. The multidisciplinary approach implies that the studies contemplate a wide range of analytical, experimental (in the field and in the laboratory), statistical and modeling techniques. The team works mainly in the littoral and platform benthic ecosystems in which it has a long experience (campaigns in oceanographic and coastal areas with SCUBA-diving). The research activities is complemented by a long experience in educational and scientific outreach activities.,

Since its creation in 1990, the research group has been studying continent-ocean interactions within the coastal ecosystem, including continental flows and their implications for the marine environment, mainly the nutritional enrichment of coastal waters and its consequences: harmful algal blooms and eutrophication. These studies include researching the mechanisms relevant to the associated biological processes and the relationships between continental inputs, spatial structure, and land use. The group is mainly devoted to basic science but it also addresses the growing demands arising from management criteria and legislation enacted by society and, in particular, by the European Union on environmental quality, human health and wellbeing. Currently, funding of the PBL’s research has been secured until 2024 mainly from European public sources. The group also has a strong commitment to science dissemination and outreach.,

The scientific collection of vertebrates includes specimens - naturalized or conserved in alcohol – of fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals. Very recently an invertebrate collections is being set up (insects and mites). These items are available to scientists worldwide for use in the study of systematics, zoogeography, ecology, genetics, etc. and are from different geographical areas: the Iberian Peninsula, Africa, South America and Asia. The collection of fishes is the smallest, with some 9,000 specimens (300 species); the herpetological collection contains 22,000 specimens of reptiles (450 species) and 15,000 amphibians (150 species); the ornithological collection has around 33,000 specimens (2,300 species); and the mammal collection some 34,000 specimens (1,300 species). Currently the main aim is the use of the collection by the scientific community, completing and updating the stock catalogue and facilitating access to it. Due to the considerable number of requests for tissue samples for molecular genetics research, a tissue bank has been set up with mammal dermal specimens. Since 2017, the Scientific Collections are part of our Large Scale Facility ICTS-RBD,

Our goal is to improve the conceptual integration of the different levels of complexity in explaining trait evolution and species diversification. We are pushing the boundaries of current evolutionary theory by examining the possible role of both genetic and non-genetic inheritance, the role of the environment as a phenotypic inductor via epigenetic regulation, and the possibility that such epigenetic changes may evolve under selection into accommodated genetic variation. One important characteristic of this research line is its interdisciplinary component, based on the integration of several approaches, mainly evolutionary ecology, population genetics, and theoretical ecology. This results in an eminently collaborative research. We dig into the histories of species, populations and communities using both traditional genetics and new omics tools. By incorporating and consolidating novel molecular techniques we seek to test ecological hypotheses, study host-parasite interactions, and identify functional polymorphisms in candidate genes to account for ecologically and evolutionarily divergent life history traits.,

We perform multidisciplinary research aiming at providing the scientific knowledge needed for the conservation of biodiversity in all its forms. Our research is oriented towards threatened ecosystems, communities, species and populations. We have no a priori taxonomic or regional bias. Nevertheless due to historical and practical reasons most of our work deals with vertebrates. We use long-term data series to evaluate changes in composition, processes and dynamics in ecosystems, communities, populations and individuals as well as the impact of specific human activities at local, regional and global levels and the role of global change drivers. We make use techniques from many disciplines (physiology, epidemiology, complex systems modeling, etc) in order to determine causes, evaluate effects and make projections. We work in cooperation with other researchers both from CSIC and national and international Universities and research institutions.,

Our group applies many different approaches within inland and estuarine wetlands, with much research carried out in Andalusia (notably Doñana), as well as other parts of the Mediterranean. Our key difference with other research groups is our focus on aquatic systems. Group members have been researching into aquatic birds, amphibians and reptiles for several decades. During the last 15 years we have broadened our research lines and now conduct quality research into aquatic invertebrates and plants, parasites and emergent diseases, and remote sensing of wetlands. We have strength in population dynamics, community and metacommunity ecology, restoration ecology, population genetics, biological invasions and ecotoxicology. Much of our research is focused on the diverse interactions between waterbirds, amphibians or aquatic reptiles and other organisms, and novel research for over a decade has made us world leaders on the passive dispersal of seeds and invertebrates by waterbirds.,

Islands have been considered as the best natural laboratories for the study of plant and animal evolution. Their evolutionary uniqueness and isolation make island dwellers prone to extinction in a scenario of climatic change and biodiversity crisis. Insular taxa form simplified communities, where ecological relationships and evolutionary processes can be studied more easily than on the continent. The Balearic Islands are particularly vulnerable to global change and human perturbations. Because of their reduced territory, their rich biodiversity (555 animal and 130 plant endemic taxa) is threatened by loss of habitats and introduction of alien species. The research group covers a broad expertise in taxonomic, biogeographic, evolutionary and ecological issues of insular biotas. The methodological approach is multidisciplinary, combining morphological, distributional, population and molecular data to improve our understanding and promote the conservation of insular unique biotas.,

The group pursues to advance the knowledge of the marine pelagic ecosystem, promote novel research and foster social awareness of the significance of protecting ocean health. Our main research focuses on studying the structure and dynamics of plankton, its response to environmental disturbances, and its role in the cycling of key chemical elements in the ocean. We investigate the response of plankton ecosystems to ocean warming, stratification, acidification, turbulence, atmospheric deposition, continental runoff and pollution, and explore solutions to abate anthropogenic impacts. In order to tackle these objectives, we use a wide array of laboratory techniques, innovative experimental and field approaches, time series monitoring, remote sensing data analysis, and computer model simulations. By integrating these approaches, methodologies and analytical tools, we aim to achieve a comprehensive understanding of the ocean plankton ecosystem.,

Our goal is to improve the conceptual integration of the different levels of complexity in explaining trait evolution and species diversification. We are pushing the boundaries of current evolutionary theory by examining the possible role of both genetic and non-genetic inheritance, the role of the environment as a phenotypic inductor via epigenetic regulation, and the possibility that such epigenetic changes may evolve under selection into accommodated genetic variation. One important characteristic of this research line is its interdisciplinary component, based on the integration of several approaches, mainly evolutionary ecology, population genetics, and theoretical ecology. This results in an eminently collaborative research. We dig into the histories of species, populations and communities using both traditional genetics and new omics tools. By incorporating and consolidating novel molecular techniques we seek to test ecological hypotheses, study host-parasite interactions, and identify functional polymorphisms in candidate genes to account for ecologically and evolutionarily divergent life history traits.,

The scientific collection of vertebrates includes specimens - naturalized or conserved in alcohol – of fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals. Very recently an invertebrate collections is being set up (insects and mites). These items are available to scientists worldwide for use in the study of systematics, zoogeography, ecology, genetics, etc. and are from different geographical areas: the Iberian Peninsula, Africa, South America and Asia. The collection of fishes is the smallest, with some 9,000 specimens (300 species); the herpetological collection contains 22,000 specimens of reptiles (450 species) and 15,000 amphibians (150 species); the ornithological collection has around 33,000 specimens (2,300 species); and the mammal collection some 34,000 specimens (1,300 species). Currently the main aim is the use of the collection by the scientific community, completing and updating the stock catalogue and facilitating access to it. Due to the considerable number of requests for tissue samples for molecular genetics research, a tissue bank has been set up with mammal dermal specimens. Since 2017, the Scientific Collections are part of our Large Scale Facility ICTS-RBD,

His research focuses on the study of the effects of Global Change in high Pyrenean and Mediterranean mountain fluvial ecosystems, considering the possible actions of restoration and bioremediation for their mitigation, including also the impacts of the introduction of species invasive species (fish) towards the diversity and functioning of aquatic macroinvertebrate communities in Pyrenean rivers and ponds. Part of this research is recorded in the changes associated with climate change and the possible evolution of habitat availability and the future distributions of both endemic species and communities and their functionality. My research has necessitated the long-term monitoring of some aquatic ecosystems in order to be able to differentiate the interannual variability of change trends over time in these ecosystems, as well as some emblematic or vulnerable species.

We perform multidisciplinary research aiming at providing the scientific knowledge needed for the conservation of biodiversity in all its forms. Our research is oriented towards threatened ecosystems, communities, species and populations. We have no a priori taxonomic or regional bias. Nevertheless due to historical and practical reasons most of our work deals with vertebrates. We use long-term data series to evaluate changes in composition, processes and dynamics in ecosystems, communities, populations and individuals as well as the impact of specific human activities at local, regional and global levels and the role of global change drivers. We make use techniques from many disciplines (physiology, epidemiology, complex systems modeling, etc) in order to determine causes, evaluate effects and make projections. We work in cooperation with other researchers both from CSIC and national and international Universities and research institutions.,

Our group applies many different approaches within inland and estuarine wetlands, with much research carried out in Andalusia (notably Doñana), as well as other parts of the Mediterranean. Our key difference with other research groups is our focus on aquatic systems. Group members have been researching into aquatic birds, amphibians and reptiles for several decades. During the last 15 years we have broadened our research lines and now conduct quality research into aquatic invertebrates and plants, parasites and emergent diseases, and remote sensing of wetlands. We have strength in population dynamics, community and metacommunity ecology, restoration ecology, population genetics, biological invasions and ecotoxicology. Much of our research is focused on the diverse interactions between waterbirds, amphibians or aquatic reptiles and other organisms, and novel research for over a decade has made us world leaders on the passive dispersal of seeds and invertebrates by waterbirds.,

The Global Change Research (GCR) group aims at understanding, forecasting and ultimately managing the risks posed by Global Change. The group emphasizes the interactions between all components of the Earth system, addressing impacts on biodiversity and biogeochemistry, as well as assessing the role ecosystems play in mitigation and adaptation to global change, both in marine and terrestrial systems. These objectives are addressed through multidisciplinary long-term monitoring, experiments, field observations, data mining and modelling. The marine research lines of the GCR group include (1) metabolism in seagrass meadows, modification of the carbon system by marine vegetation, ocean acidification and warming; (2) function of and services provided by marine ecosystems dominated by macrophyte; (3) coastal ecosystem responses to pressures and to the release of pressures, with particular interest in no linear responses; and (4) scientific support to marine ecosystem conservation polices. The terrestrial systems are studied mostly under the framework of network theory, assessing how different drivers of Global Change (specifically habitat loss, invasive species, agricultural intensification, and climate change) alter the ecological interactions between species, as well as their resilience. The main ongoing research lines encompass (1) the ecological complexity of small islands; (2) pollination ecology; (3) conservation of insect pollinators.,

with future changes. Current research focuses on (1) the coupling between ocean processes
and marine plankton dynamics (micro to mesoscale), (2) fine-scale microalgal dynamics (e.g. effects of turbulence, physical-biological interactions, Harmful Algal Blooms), (3) the ecology of communities dominated by marine macrophytes, their response to natural and
anthropogenic disturbances and their restoration, (4) the connectivity of marine populations,
(5) the factors influencing fish population dynamics and life history traits, (6) the protection
of marine living resources from the impact of fisheries, and (7) the translation of scientific
knowledge into management and awareness.,

The Global Change Research (GCR) group aims at understanding, forecasting and ultimately managing the risks posed by Global Change. The group emphasizes the interactions between all components of the Earth system, addressing impacts on biodiversity and biogeochemistry, as well as assessing the role ecosystems play in mitigation and adaptation to global change, both in marine and terrestrial systems. These objectives are addressed through multidisciplinary long-term monitoring, experiments, field observations, data mining and modelling. The marine research lines of the GCR group include (1) metabolism in seagrass meadows, modification of the carbon system by marine vegetation, ocean acidification and warming; (2) function of and services provided by marine ecosystems dominated by macrophyte; (3) coastal ecosystem responses to pressures and to the release of pressures, with particular interest in no linear responses; and (4) scientific support to marine ecosystem conservation polices. The terrestrial systems are studied mostly under the framework of network theory, assessing how different drivers of Global Change (specifically habitat loss, invasive species, agricultural intensification, and climate change) alter the ecological interactions between species, as well as their resilience. The main ongoing research lines encompass (1) the ecological complexity of small islands; (2) pollination ecology; (3) conservation of insect pollinators.,

The highly multidisciplinary Marine Ecosystem Dynamics (MED) group (theoretical and experimental physicists, biologists, engineers, statisticians and social scientists) aims to understand the mechanisms that govern the interactions between the different constituents of marine ecosystems, determine how natural processes and human activities influence the structure and function of these ecosystems, and assess their stability and resilience to cope with future changes. Current research focuses on (1) the coupling between ocean processes and marine plankton dynamics (micro to mesoscale), (2) fine-scale microalgal dynamics (e.g. effects of turbulence, physical-biological interactions, Harmful Algal Blooms), (3) the ecology of communities dominated by marine macrophytes, their response to natural and anthropogenic disturbances and their restoration, (4) the connectivity of marine populations, (5) the factors influencing fish population dynamics and life history traits, (6) the protection of marine living resources from the impact of fisheries, and (7) the translation of scientific knowledge into management and awareness.,

Islands have been considered as the best natural laboratories for the study of plant and animal evolution. Their evolutionary uniqueness and isolation make island dwellers prone to extinction in a scenario of climatic change and biodiversity crisis. Insular taxa form simplified communities, where ecological relationships and evolutionary processes can be studied more easily than on the continent. The Balearic Islands are particularly vulnerable to global change and human perturbations. Because of their reduced territory, their rich biodiversity (555 animal and 130 plant endemic taxa) is threatened by loss of habitats and introduction of alien species. The research group covers a broad expertise in taxonomic, biogeographic, evolutionary and ecological issues of insular biotas. The methodological approach is multidisciplinary, combining morphological, distributional, population and molecular data to improve our understanding and promote the conservation of insular unique biotas.,

Since 1996 I have been focused in the study of lichenized fungi under different approaches: until 2003 I worked on ecophysiology. Since then and until now I have concentrated on species delimitation and cryptic species by the use of phylogenetic tools, intraspecific and interspecific molecular divergence, DNA sequences as "barcoding", and coalescence analysis.
