Annual Report 2016 | Research Highlights 27

CREAFâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s research portfolio is wide and multidisciplinary, including advances in basic research as well as important contributions to environmental topics of significant socioeconomic impact. Our science responds to the research needs of local and international governmental organizations. Research carried out by the center can be divided into four general areas:

Biodiversity Functional ecology and global change Forest ecology and wildfire Environmental analysis and GIS

BIODIVERSITY The Mediterranean Basin is one of the principal points of biodiversity concentration on the planet. The loss of this biodiversity is one of the greatest environmental challenges which we have been obliged to face in the past few decades. Without biodiversity, it would be impossible to obtain the multitude of ecological goods and services which we need to live. At CREAF we study the mechanisms which generate and maintain biodiversity in terrestrial ecosystems. We analyze territorial patterns of biodiversity and the factors which threaten it. We work with species and communities of plants and animals, with studies carried out from the molecular to ecosystem scale. Research lines Population dynamics and genetics Phenology and distribution of species Species interactions Biological invasions

Citizen science emerges as a significant ally to biodiversity

A new study, published in Biological Conservation and with the participation of Bernat Claramunt, UAB and CREAF researcher, underscores the great potential of citizen science for conservation.” The study identified what types of data are most common from citizen science projects and which are normally lacking. It is necessary to closely monitor different indicators across the planet, including indicators of phenology, migratory behavior, bioindicator species, population age structure, and species distributions.

Female marmots “cheat on” their male partners

A study published in Ecology and Evolutions shows that for marmots, infidelity is a way for dominant females to promote genetic diversity and increase the chances of survival of their young.”

Mariona Ferrandiz Rovira, from CREAF and UAB, when the dominant partner is genetically very similar, the female opts to reproduce with other males. This behavior could help create a more diverse genetic line and genetics that are better able to respond to parasites.

GLOBAL CHANGE REPORT Each organism, every community, and every ecosystem plays an important role in the regulation of cycles of energy and nutrients which keep the planet alive. Some of these roles have been modified due to atmospheric changes, climate change, increases in disturbances and changes in land use. At CREAF we study the effects of global change (which includes all of the aforementioned changes) with an international and multidisciplinary focus. The methods of study require working at diverse scales (from the organism to the ecosystem), combining experimentation with modeling, and conducting long-term monitoring of different ecosystems. Research lines: Chemical ecology, ecotoxicology, metabolomics Carbon and nutrient stocks and fluxes Water resources Interactions between ecosystems and the atmosphere

Volatile Organic Compounds, the language of plants

Plants communicate with chemical signals which they release into their surroundings, helping them to interact with other plants and living beings, including microorganisms.â&#x20AC;? The knowledge of microbiota living on plants and their interaction with VOCs can improve understanding of the contribution of these emissions to atmospheric composition, and even their possible effects on climate. This is what Gerard FarrĂŠ Armengol, from CREAF explains in a study published in Trends in Plant Science.

Deforestation of Easter Island was gradual and due to more factors than just human pressure Olga Margalef and Sergi Pla RabĂŠs from CREAF published a study in Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution with other ICTJA-CSIC and the University of Barcelona researchers.â&#x20AC;? They extracted a number of sedimentary samples from lake bottoms on the island. These samples allowed the reconstruction of environmental changes over the past 3,000 years including history of its climate, ecology and culture. The pollen records that had been relied upon previously for such work were not continuous and their interpretation led to the erroneous idea that deforestation of the island was sudden and caused exclusively by human over-exploitation.

FOREST ECOLOGY REPORT Forests, shrubland, and other forest formations are dynamic systems, which constantly change in function of many natural processes and disturbances they are subjected to. All of these factors affect mortality, regeneration, and growth of the different species which form a part of the ecosystem. In this area, CREAF is a widely-recognized center in the creation of forest inventories and databases, and in the development of mathematical models for the study of forests. The integration of these data into global change models helps plan new strategies of forest management to preserve the natural, social and economic value of our forest ecosystems.

When the spring is warm and dry, seed production is increased in forests across Western Europe The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), an important atmospheric phenomenon affecting the meteorology of the whole of Europe, impacts the quantity and timing of seed production in the continent’s forests.” Marcos Fernández-Martínez, from CREAF and first author of the article published in Ecography, observed when the NAO favors a dry and warm spring, most of the studied forests produced more seeds and this is also done in a more synchronized manner.

Areas of Aleppo pine that had been thinned previously are recovering better than non-thinned areas in terms of resprouting species of trees and shrubs.” The regeneration of the Aleppo itself has been more modest and sparse, but they can be found throughout the burnt area.

The treeline in Tibet increases slower than temperatures

Josep PeĂąuelas, from CREAF and CSIC, directed a study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, where highlights that the forest treeline shifts upward slower than temperature increase, and it can be hindered by densification of shrubs.â&#x20AC;? A number of factors influence upward forest expansion, including the particular plant species growing near trees, climate change, human activity, and terrain morphology. The Tibetan Plateau, practically devoid of human pressures, offers a pristine area for study.

CREAF researchers uncover how climate change-provoked substitutions of pines with holm oak affect soil respiration A study published in Oecologia by Josep Barba, as first author and with other CREAF researchers, has discovered that the quantity of CO2 emitted from the soil through respiration remains the same despite forest decline after drought.â&#x20AC;? The soil of a forest with Scots pine recovers from damages in very little time; in other words, it has a high resilience in terms of CO2 emissions. However, when the pines are substituted with holm oak the soils emit almost 36% less carbon dioxide through respiration.

ENVIRONMENTAL AND TERRITORIAL ANALYSIS AND GIS REPORT

Remote sensing and geographic information systems have permitted analysis of the territory at large scales, and which are at the same time increasingly detailed. These analyses become fundamental for making decisions about the sustainable management of natural resources, designing networks of protected areas, and facing the threats of global change. Thanks to research carried out by CREAF in this area, we have been able to provide to the public a collection of digital maps of land use of various periods of time, design new formats for storing and distributing thematic cartography, and develop computing tools such as the MiraMon GIS, all of which permit the consultation and analysis of a large quantity of information about our natural heritage.

OFFICIAL MASTER IN REMOTE SENSING AND GIS

OFFICIAL MASTER IN TERRESTRIAL ECOLOGY AND BIODIVERSITY MANAGEMENT

The aim of this Master is to provide sound scientific training in techniques for observing the Earth and for generating and analyzing information in order to be able to study a given territory and manage its resources using GIS. The program is divided into 7 modules: 4 modules of mandatory subjects and 2 modules of elective advanced subjects. In addittion, the Master course is complemented by practical sessions with a tutor and a Final Project as the last mandatory module of the program.

This master’s degree in Terrestrial Ecology and Biodiversity Management is addressed to students interested in the processes involved in the functioning of terrestrial ecosystems and the options for mitigating their future deterioration in a context of global environmental change, and also to students interested in the management and conservation of biological natural resources (flora and fauna). The master’s degree takes up one academic year and is divided into 2 specialisations: Terrestrial Ecology and Management and Diversity of Fauna and Flora (marine and terrestrial).
