Active biomonitoring in Greek coastal waters: Application of the integrated biomarker response index in relation to contaminant levels in caged mussels
(2011)An integrated approach using biomarkers and contaminant levels in mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis L was employed to assess chemical contamination in Greek coastal waters within the framework of the MYTIMED program. ... -
The Aegean Sea demersal fishery under four climatic and socio-political futures
(2022)The future of the Aegean Sea demersal fishery is projected under four climatic and socio-political scenarios, namely: “World Markets“, “Global Sustainability”, “National Enterprise” and “Local Stewardship”. The scenarios ... -
Antiparasitic and immunomodulatory effect of innovative treatments against Myxobolus sp. infection in Diplodus puntazzo
(2005)The potential antiparasitic and immunomodulatory effect of three treatments against myxosporean parasites on the innate immune system of sharpsnout sea bream (Diplodus puntazzo) was investigated. Fish naturally infected ... -
Biogeography and temporal progression during the evolution of striped dolphin population structure in European waters
(2017)Aim: We investigated the population genetic structure of a highly mobile marine species, the striped dolphin, Stenella coeruleoalba (Meyen, 1833), along a geographical range with habitat transitions and historical dynamics ... -
Broad-front migration leads to strong migratory connectivity in the lesser kestrel (Falco naumanni)
(2019)Aim: Migratory animals regularly move between often distant breeding and non-breeding ranges. Knowledge about how these ranges are linked by movements of individuals from different populations is crucial for unravelling ... -
Bycatch Dynamics from a Small-Scale Shrimp Trap Fishery in the Mediterranean Sea
(2022)Small-scale fisheries (SSFs) in the Mediterranean and Black seas play a significant social and economic role, representing 84% of the fishing fleet (70,000 vessels), 26% of total revenue (USD 633 million) and 60% of total ... -
Chemical composition and microstructural morphology of spines and tests of three common sea urchins species of the sublittoral zone of the mediterranean sea
(2020)In the Mediterranean Sea, the species Arbacia lixula, Paracentrotus lividus and Sphaerechinus granularis often coexist, occupying different subareas of the same habitat. The mechanical and chemical properties of their ... -
Contribution of sea cucumber Holothuria tubulosa on organic load reduction from fish farming operation
(2019)An investigation was carried out in the field and in the laboratory in order to evaluate the contribution of sea cucumber Holothuria tubulosa on organic load reduction from fish farming in the Eastern Mediterranean. Five ... -
Could bio-stimulators affect flower, essential oil yield, and its composition in organic lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) cultivation?
(2020)Soil-climatic conditions of Greece and Mediterranean basin in general are favor for the development of aromatic-medicinal plants. A great aromatic-medicinal plant that is cultivated on a large scale in Greece and in ... -
Decomposing the price of the cruise product into tourism and transport attributes: Evidence from the Mediterranean market
(2018)The price composition of the cruise product is described by a high level of complexity, since it incorporates both tourist and transport dimensions. Despite that research on cruise sector is advancing, the international ... -

Efficiency of shallow-and deep-water trawlinin the mediterranean and its implications for discard reduction [Comparación de la eficiencia de las flotas de arrastre costera y de profundidad en el mediterráneo y sus implicaciones para la reducción de los descartes]
(2018)The Mazara del Vallo fleet is one of the main fleets of large trawlers in the Mediterranean. Traditionally, the two main fishing strategies adopted by the fleet can be summarized as follows: pesca a fresco (<250 m), mainly ... -
Environmental variation and macrofauna response in a coastal area influenced by land runoff
(2013)Macrofauna community interactions with environmental variables in the water column (salinity, temperature, turbidity, transparency, suspended particulate matter, particulate organic matter, choloroplastic pigments) and in ... -
Evaluating hotel productivity growth in Balearic and Canary islands
(2017)This article examines the productivity of hotels operating in the two main sun and sand tourism markets in Spain, the Balearic, and the Canary Islands, from 2004 to 2013. In this manner, we can evaluate the impact of the ... -
Everything is not everywhere: Can marine compartments shape phytoplankton assemblages?
(2019)The idea that 'everything is everywhere, but the environment selects' has been seminal in microbial biogeography, and marine phytoplankton is one of the prototypical groups used to illustrate this. The typical argument has ... -
Financial crisis and hotels’ labour productivity growth: evidence from Spanish islands
(2018)The article examines hotels’ labour productivity growth over the period of financial crisis. We decompose hotels’ labour productivity into three components: technological change, technological catch-up (efficiency ... -
First Eastern Mediterranean Record of Xenoligophoroides cobitis, the Only Dactylogyrid Monogenean Infecting Mediterranean Gobies: Just Arrived or Missed the Boat?
(2022)Gobies and their ectoparasitic monogenean flatworms are promising models for species diversification because of their species richness. Recent decades have seen the discovery of several new species of Gyrodactylus (Monogenea: ... -
