Experiences from a wearable-mobile acquisition system for ambulatory assessment of diet and activity
2017
Public health trends are currently monitored and diagnosed based on large studies that often rely on pen-and-paper data methods that tend to require a large collection campaign. With the pervasiveness of smart-phones and -watches throughout the general population, we argue in this paper that such devices and their built-in sensors can be used to capture such data more accurately with less of an effort. We present a system that targets a pan-European and harmonised architecture, using smartphones and wrist-worn activity loggers to enable the collection of data to estimate sedentary behavior and physical activity, plus the consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages. We report on a unified pilot…

The genus Lygaeus Fabricius, 1794 includes more than fifty species, mainly distributed in the Old World regions, with 17 species known from the Palearctic (Pericart 2001; Wachmann et al. 2007), and only two from Central Europe, i.e., L . equestris (Linnaeus, 1758) and L . simulans Deckert, 1985 (Pericart 2001).

Aplicación de técnicas morfológicas y moleculares en la identificación de la megalopa de decápodos braquiuros de la península ibérica
2015
Entre los crustáceos decápodos, el Infraorden Brachyura Linnaeus, 1758 es el grupo más diverso y de mayor éxito evolutivo, con aproximadamente 7.000 especies pertenecientes a 98 familias (Tsang et al. 2014). Los braquiuros, comúnmente llamados cangrejos, han conquistado casi todos los hábitats y numerosos nichos ecológicos (De Grave et al. 2009; Ahyong et al. 2011). La mayoría de las especies son marinas, aunque también existen especies de agua dulce o incluso especies terrestres. El desarrollo larvario de los braquiuros suele constar de dos fases de vida libre y planctónicas (con las escasas excepciones de aquellos con desarrollo directo, principalmente de agua dulce): zoea (con varios est…
