Lo que oculta el esplendor de Doñana El Parque Nacional de Doñana empieza a recuperar su avifauna gracias a las abundantes precipitaciones acumuladas que han puesto fin a más de un decenio de sequía

🌿 #Doñana es mucho más de lo que vemos.

→ una biodiversidad única
→ procesos ecológicos complejos
→ un equilibrio frágil

Proteger su “esplendor oculto” es clave para garantizar su futuro. 💧

SERVICO2 - Homepage - SERVICO2 How do climate change, atmospheric nutrient deposition and land use affect the capacity of headwaters to regulate greenhouse gases? The SERVICO2 project studies a little-known but fundamental ecosystem service: the ability of headwater catchmentsf to act as sinks or sources of greenhouse gases such as CO₂, CH₄ or N₂O. Understanding how these fluxes vary in a […]
