Tsagkari, Marouko (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Institut de Ciència i Tecnologia Ambientals)
Increasingly, electrochemical energy storage and conversion technologies are considered key enablers of a deep decarbonization of society. However, given the real possibility that these technologies may delay rather than advance climate action, it is crucial that policy-makers, industry, and researchers actively engage in developing principles for more responsible or 'convivial' use of these technologies.

Quantifying marine reservoir effects (MREs) across time and space is crucial for establishing accurate archaeological chronologies, including the activities of past hominines. Although the northern Iberian Peninsula shows a high density of Upper Paleolithic sites and marine shells are frequently found in these assemblages, quantification of MREs in this coastal region remains limited.

Urbanization converts natural landscapes into impervious surfaces, altering local climate and air quality. Greening strategies are adopted to mitigate these effects, yet their effectiveness depends on land use, urban form, geography, and climate interactions. [...]

Sedimentary dynamics in the Palamós Canyon are influenced by river inputs and storm resuspension, as well as by bottom trawling on the canyon flanks. In this study, we estimate recent sediment deposition patterns along the canyon axis using the excess activity concentration of the short-lived radiotracer 234Th (half-life of 24. [...]
