Article
Full-text available
Tourism is an activity that generates important benefits; in the case of Costa Rica, it focuses its activity on natural areas, using the different ecosystem services (ES) and obtaining economic and social benefits. However, its ecological value can diminish, making it necessary to implement methods to estimate its sustainability. This paper propose...

Forest planning and management must be conceived in accordance with the circumstances and needs of the moment. Nowadays, the forest does not have a single and exclusive productive use but responds to multiple demands. The stand management method, with a broad approach, is has been recently well adapted to this type of multipurpose management. This...

Objective To evaluate the relationship between antipseudomonal antibiotic consumption and each individual drug resistance rate in Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains causing ICU acquired invasive device-related infections (IDRI). Design A post hoc analysis was made of the data collected prospectively from the ENVIN-HELICS registry. Setting Intensive C...

Article
Objective To analyze epidemiological data of catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) in critically ill patients admitted to Spanish ICUs in order to assess the need of implementing a nationwide intervention program to reduce these infections. Design Non-intervention retrospective annual period prevalence analysis. Setting Participatin...
Article
We assessed invasive device-associated infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa over 10 years (2007-2016) based on data from the ENVIN-HELICS registry (200 Spanish ICUs). P. aeruginosa was the leading pathogen except in the last two years in which there was a slight decrease, with Escherichia coli as the leading etiology. The rate of infections...

Article
Forest stand structure is an important concept for ecology and planning in sustainable forest management. In this article, we consider that the incorporation of complementary multispectral information from optical sensors to Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) may be advantageous, especially through data fusion by back-projecting the LiDAR points o...
Article
Objective To describe the case-mix of patients admitted to intensive care units (ICUs) in Spain during the period 2006–2011 and to assess changes in ICU mortality according to severity level. Design Secondary analysis of data obtained from the ENVN-HELICS registry. Observational prospective study. Setting Spanish ICU. Patients Patients admitted...

Natura 2000 is a European network of protected areas established under the Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC). According to the Habitats Directive, habitat maps must be periodically updated, which requires the development of cost- and time-efficient mapping practices. In this study, we propose a methodology for habitat mapping using very high spatial r...

Article
Conservation and enhancement of ecological connectivity is widely recognized as one of the key objec-tives of forest landscape management. However, practical difficulties still exist due to the lack of pragmatic and operational methodologies that can be efficiently applied for these purposes within the scope of a forest management plan. Here we pre...

The main goal of Natura 2000 network is to guarantee the favourable conservation status of habitats and species ensuring European biodiversity. As a result, certain forest areas have been included in this network listed as 9230-Quercus pyrenaica habitat and 9340-Quercus ilex subsp. rotundifolia forest habitat. These areas were previously used for f...

Spanish open oak woodlands have had multiple land uses such as firewood extraction and grazing through centuries. Consequently, 20% of the Spanish forest is coppice forest. This particular agrosilvopastoral system is well widespread in the southern and western part of the Iberian Peninsula. As a result of the implementation of Natura 2000 in Spain,...
Conference Paper
Conservation, protection and improvement of the environmental quality, including the conservation of habitats, as well as natural flora and wild fauna are one of the main objectives of the European Union environmental policy. The conservation of biodiversity in Europe is defined by Directive 92/43/EEC –commonly known as Habitats Directive– relating...

Because of it, it is necessary to ensure the...
Article
A model to estimate tolerable soil loss is presented as a fundamental criterion on watershed management. The model is based upon the axiom that the maximum tolerable soil loss is lower than the soil quantity made up of the ecological system, which is described by its mathematical function. Taking this function as a starting point, maximum tolerable...
Article
This article presents a watershed management methodology based on a land-use planning model whereby sustainability criteria are introduced according to the capacity of the environment to support interventions in the watershed. The model has been applied to the middle course of the Jarama river (Guadalajara, Spain), taking into account the likely co...
