The paper assesses whether women and men were equally represented, participative and visible at the 1st Congress of the Iberian Society of Ecology (SIBECOL), held in Barcelona in 2019.

A study led by researchers from the ICM-CSIC and the EBD-CSIC has estimated the seeds dispersed both inside and outside Barcelona based on the movement of gulls monitored by GPS telemetry and seeds detected in their diet.

Researchers at the Barcelona Expert Center (BEC) have contributed to obtaining the first results of the MOSAiC campaign, which have been published today and offer a global picture of climate processes in the central Arctic, an area particularly vulnerable.

Researchers from the IEO and the ICM have contributed to the first unified vision of the world ocean biodiversity.

According to a new IEO study in which the ICM has participated, predation of eggs and larvae by these animals that are part of the gelatinous plankton is contributing to reduce the abundance of small pelagic fish.
