Nueva etapa, nuevas propuestas

¡Buenas a todos!

 

Tras el último congreso de la AIL en Santander este verano, empezamos una nueva etapa con energías renovadas, y caras nuevas entre los colaboradores del blog (¡Hola!).

 

Para ello, vamos a empezar a lo grande, con una nueva propuesta: que nuestro blog sirva como plataforma para cualquier joven AIL de nosotros pueda presentar o explicar en lo que estamos trabajando, nuestros proyectos, nuestras tesis, nuestros artículos... ¿qué os parece? ¿Nos animamos? ¡Claro que sí!

Esperamos vuestros abstracts en el correo oficial jovenesail@gmail.com

 

Esta idea nos ha surgido tras conocer el interesantísimo blog de la Asociación de Jóvenes Investigadores de la universidad de Murcia, AJIUM, donde nuestro compañero Tano ha escrito un gran artículo, que os transcribimos en este mismo post, un par de párrafos más abajo (¡Gracias, Tano, por darnos permiso!).

DOMIPEX field sampling

Hi all,

We've finished the first sampling of DOMIPEX project, which has been doing during summer. Finally, we are fourteen groups in this project. Thanks to all for your great efforts to conduct the samplings and your involment in the project!

 

 

Now, the fall sampling is starting and will last until 30th October.

Happy sampling to all!

Núria and Ada.

DOMIPEX Team 15

Hello DOMIPEX colleagues!

We are the TEAM 15, from the Institute of Aquatic Ecology (University of Girona). We are Irene, Juanita, Anna, Núria, Elena and Mireia, a very diverse team, with researchers from different departments and lines of research. 

Irene is working in wetland systems, particularly in the study of macroinvertebrate communities and their relation to the environmental characteristics of the ecosystem surrounding them. Juanita, Anna and Núria are working in biofilms and leaf litter decomposition in Mediterranean rivers. We are focused on the ecosystem functioning regarding to the interaction with drought effect, water quality, and anthropogenic impacts.

Elena and Mireia are from molecular microbial ecology group (gEMM). Elena studies the nitrogen cycle, mainly the different fates of nitrite and nitrate in aquatic systems, as denitrification and dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium. Mireia is developing her thesis around the role of the uncultured Archaea in the carbon cycle in stratified karstic lakes.

Sampling calendar

Hi all!


After our exciting meeting in Santander, now we're about to start our first sampling period of DOMIPEX, which will be conducted under low-flow stream conditions (summer).

Sampling material has been distributed among participants teams, sites are chosen, field and lab methods have been tested and the sampling protocol has been elaborated (have a look here).

In brief, we'll start informing about team's field visits. At the moment, here's the sampling calendar of DOMIPEX participants.

Happy sampling!

Núria and Ada.

 

DOMIPEX TEAM 1- UPDATED) Celia, Rubén and Andrea

Hello,

We are the team 1: Celia Ruiz, Rubén Rasines and Andrea G. Bravo. We will also collaborate with Pablo Almeda and Ana Herrero. Together, we are an interdisciplinary group working from hyporheic areas in rivers  to oligotrophic and humic lakes. We study oxic and anoxic interfaces and within the context of DOMIPEX, we aim to understand the role of the organic carbon on the N cycle in lotic systems. We are happy to participate in the DOMIPEX project learning and sharing our research with many other people. We want to congrats Nuria and Ada for organizing. We expect to do the first experiment somewhere between the 1st and 15th September. We will give more details in August.

Best regards

Celia, Rubén y Andrea
