Using geolocation data, a
study with IFISC participation analyzes how fishing pressure in international
waters is concentrated around areas under the jurisdiction of nations.
IFISC (UIB-CSIC) researcher Ingo Fischer, together
with Daniel J. Gauthier (Department of Physics, Ohio State
University), has published an article in the Perspectives section of
the journal Science. The authors analyze and put into context
different cutting-edge optical devices for ...
IFISC (UIB-CSIC)
and the Institutional Representation of CSIC in the Balearic Islands join
forces and create "Voces, CSIC Balears", a bimonthly podcast for the
dissemination of science. Through interviews with scientists working at CSIC's
centres in the Balearic Islands ...
An
international team of researchers, including IFISC (UIB-CSIC)
researcher Víctor Eguíluz, has documented the impact of
human-caused noise on marine animals (from invertebrates to whales)
and their ecosystems. The scientists have found evidence of its
negative effect, altering the behavior ...
Identifying
the contacts with whom an infected person has been is key in any
pandemic to stop the spread of the pathogen. This can be done
manually, by asking the sick person, however it is an extremely slow
and complex ...
It is estimated that 'modern' human
language has been with us for at least 100,000 years. Unfortunately, the
historical evolution of languages is often poorly documented, and evidence does
not go further back in time than the moment when ...
Quantum
dots are nanoscale systems where electrons are confined in the three spatial
dimensions. This unique feature allows us to control the current that passes
through a quantum dot, which thus shows properties similar to a transistor. A
remarkable transport ...
Ecosystems are one of the paradigmatic examples in
complex systems science. A large number of species interact with each other in
various ways, either by feeding upon each other, competing for the same
resource, or even collaborating. But within an ...
Pandemics caused
by infectious diseases hit hardest the big cities with the highest population
density. This density implies a greater number of citizens per area and
therefore a greater number of contacts between citizens. On the other hand,
rural areas ...
IFISC (UIB-CSIC) and the Institutional Representation of CSIC in the Balearic Islands join forces and create "Voces, CSIC Illes Balears", a monthly podcast for the dissemination of science. Through interviews with scientists working at CSIC's centres in the Balearic ...
