Tendencias en el precio de la energía eléctrica: efecto de la liberalización sectorial (1997-2010)
El presente artículo realiza un análisis de los cambios en el mercado eléctrico en España a lo largo de las dos últimas décadas; estos cambios afectan a las cuatro actividades fundamentales: Producción, transporte, distribución y comercialización. La Ley 54/1997 del Sector Eléctrico ha modernizado el sector en España con muchos cambios, de los que consideramos que el más importante es la liberalización del sector, pasando del monopolio a la libre competencia, aunque con ciertos matices. En particular nosotros hemos analizado la influencia de la liberalización en los precios de venta de la electricidad, opinando que el efecto ha sido positivo para el mercado.The next paper realizes an analysis of the structure of the changes in the electrical market in Spain for the last two decades, these changes affects the main activities: Production, transport, distribution and sale. The Law 54/1997 of the Electrical Sector has modernized the market in Spain with dozens of changes, we think the most important is the progressive liberalization, from the monopoly to the free competition. Especially we have analyzed the influence of the liberalization in the prices of sale of the electricity, proposing a positive effect on the market.peerReviewe

Viability and Performance Analysis, at a Physical Level, of a Maritime Communication Network on Medium Frequency
This paper analysed the potentialities that have not yet been exploited of the Automatic Vessel Identification System on Medium Frequency (AVISOMEF) that was previously presented to the scientific community. This system expanded the spectrum of possibilities of the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS). By the time AVISOMEF was presented, one of the unexpected benefits was that it could constitute a platform capable of supporting a Maritime Communication Network on Medium Frequency; all remotely located vessels could communicate with each other by using AVISOMEF, making use of the new established network, within the geographic area of implementation, without needing to use satellite techniques. Medium frequency propagation is stable and is not subject to coverage restrictions. To conduct this experiment, we collaborated with the Spanish Maritime Safety Agency (SASEMAR). It was thanks to them that we gathered real-time information about the nationwide maritime traffic that navigated through the Spanish Search and Rescue jurisdiction waters from 2018 to 2020
Influence of Ships Docking System in the Reduction of CO2 Emissions in Container Ports
Taking into account the increase in the emission of greenhouse gases produced by ships, during navigation and maneuvering in port, a direct consequence of the increase in maritime traffic, the international community has developed a broad set of regulations to limit such emissions. The installation in commercial ports of automatic mooring systems by means of vacuum suction cups, thus considerably reducing the time required to carry out ship mooring and unmooring maneuvers, is a factor that is considerably influencing the decrease in emissions of polluting gases in commercial ports with high traffic. The objective of the present work is to verify the influence of the use of the automatic mooring systems via vacuum suction cups on the emissions of polluting gases produced in the facilities destined to the traffic of container ships. To do this, two different calculation methods were used, Environmental Protection Agency and Environmental and Engineering Consultancy, to then compare the results of the two and thus obtain the reduction in emissions per twenty-foot equivalent unit in these terminals during mooring maneuvers. The paper concludes with a discussion on the values of the reductions in emissions obtained and the advantages of the installation of automatic mooring systems using vacuum suction cups in commercial ports located near population centers
Long-term monitoring on Percent cover of vascular plants in Doñana shrublands 2008-2022
[Description of methods used for collection/generation of data] The long-term monitoring of plant cover of Doñana shrublands is part of a harmonised protocol for the Long-term Ecological Monitoring Program of Natural Resources and Processes targeting Terrestrial Vegetation. The general aim of this protocol is
to monitor and assess the dynamics of the main dominant terrestrial and aquatic vegetation types of Doñana. For shrublands, percent cover is recorded annually starting from 2008 to the present (2022) by staff of the Monitoring Team by one sampling campaign per year during the flowering season (between March and May) in 21 permanent square plots (15x15m). Cover is measured using the line intercept method in 3 transects of 15 m length oriented from East to West and located at fixed points of 2.5, 7.5 and 12.5 metres at both sides of the plot. Using the line-intercept method, the coverage of each species is measured with a measuring tape, including the class age (adult or seedling) and the canopy status (green or dead). This method enables to
calculate the percent cover for each species across the transect and for the whole plot, including data on class age and percent of dry and green canopy, additionally to the percent of bare soil, plant density, species richness and vascular plant diversity for every plot.[Methods for processing the data] The data was recorded in CyberTracker sequence. The protocol used has been supervised by researchers and the data have been validated by the members who performed the sampling. The raw data was processed with Excel and the percent coverage was calculated and unificated by species, life stage and state.Dataset are structured following well-established data formats. Three files are provided and they are related to each other with the variable eventID.
The first file (icts-rbd-shrubPlantCover_event_202300207) contains the information of each event (time of occurrence, geographical coordinates, sampling effort, etc…); the second file (icts-rbd-shrubPlantCover_occ_20230207) contains the percentage of plant cover of shrubland species recorded in each site, numbers of individual recorded and taxonomic classification; the third file (icts-rbd-shrubPlantCover_mof_20230207) contains additional information (measurements or facts) of vegetation recorded in each transect, like average vegetation height.The long-term monitoring on plant cover of Doñana shrublands is part of a harmonised protocol for the Long-term Ecological Monitoring Program of Natural Resources and Processes targeting Terrestrial Vegetation.
