María Zambrano: recuerdo y vigencia (1904-2004)
El 18 de noviembre de 2004 se realizó en la Universidad Autónoma un seminario sobre María Zambrano, organizado por el Departamento de Filosofía con la coordinación de José Luis Mora quien hizo la introducción a la vida de Zambrano. Bajo el título Notas para una biografía. Los años de aprendizaje nos habló de los tres aspectos más importantes que se deben tener en cuenta: su propia tradición familiar, desde sus abuelos ya maestros de escuela, hasta sus padres, igualmente maestros en el mundo rural andaluz; los años que pasó en Segovia donde coincidió con relevantes intelectuales entre los que destacó Antonio Machado y donde tuvo oportunidad de escuchar a los intelectuales más notables y de la época; y su compromiso político propiciado por su propio padre y desarrollado al �calor� de los acontecimientos que tuvo ocasión de vivir en la universidad de los años 20

Synthesis and Structural Analysis of Push-Pull Imidazole-Triazole Based Fluorescent Bifunctional Chemosensor for CU2+ and FE2+ Detection
[Abstract] Fluorescent imidazole-triazole based ligands L1 and L2 have been designed as chemical push-pull chemosensors for divalent metal ions and synthesized through palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions using indium organometallics and click chemistry. The novel ligands exhibit intense absorption in the ultraviolet region with high molar extinction coefficients, and strong fluorescence emission with large Stokes displacements. On the basis of UV–Vis absorption spectroscopy and fluorescence emission data in acetonitrile, L1 is shown as a bifuncional chemosensor with differential response for Fe2+ and Cu2+ over a range of selected 3d divalent and other metal ions. The binding site of the ligand was established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and 1H NMR spectroscopy studies. The association constants, determined by spectrofluorimetric titrations, show a steady binding affinity of L1 for Cu2+ and Fe2+ in comparison with other previously reported fluorescent bidentate chemosensors, offering the lowest limit of detection (LOD) with Cu2+. DFT calculations provide a rationale properly understanding and interpreting the experimentally observed results. Indeed, a mechanism of the different optical responses of L1 towards 3d divalent metal ions is proposed.We thank the Spanish Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades (PGC2018-097792-B-I00), Xunta de Galicia (GRC2018/039 and ED431B 2020/52) and EDRF funds for financial and human support.

Wide-Geographic and Long-Term Analysis of the Role of Pathogens in the Decline of Pinna nobilis to Critically Endangered Species
A mass mortality event (MME) affecting the fan mussel Pinna nobilis was first detected in Spain in autumn 2016 and spread north- and eastward through the Mediterranean Sea. Various pathogens have been blamed for contributing to the MME, with emphasis in Haplosporidium pinnae, Mycobacterium sp. and Vibrio spp. In this study, samples from 762 fan mussels (necropsies from 263 individuals, mantle biopsies from 499) of various health conditions, with wide geographic and age range, taken before and during the MME spread from various environments along Mediterranean Sea, were used to assess the role of pathogens in the MME. The number of samples processed by both histological and molecular methods was 83. The most important factor playing a main role on the onset of the mass mortality of P. nobilis throughout the Mediterranean Sea was the infection by H. pinnae. It was the only non-detected pathogen before the MME while, during MME spreading, its prevalence was higher in sick and dead individuals than in asymptomatic ones, in MME-affected areas than in non-affected sites, and it was not associated with host size, infecting both juveniles and adults. Conversely, infection with mycobacteria was independent from the period (before or during MME), from the affection of the area by MME and from the host health condition, and it was associated with host size. Gram (-) bacteria neither appeared associated with MME.En prens
Recruitment Disruption and the Role of Unaffected Populations for Potential Recovery After the Pinna nobilis Mass Mortality Event
A devastating mass mortality event (MME) very likely caused by the protozoan Haplosporidium pinnae first detected in 2016 in the Western Mediterranean Sea, is pushing the endemic bivalve Pinna nobilis to near extinction. Populations recovery, if possible, will rely on larval dispersal from unaffected sites and potential recolonization through recruitment of resistant juveniles. To assess the impact of the MME on the
species’ larval recruitment, an unprecedented network of larval collector stations was implemented over several thousands of kilometers along the Western Mediterranean coasts during the 3 years after the onset of the MME. The findings of this network showed a generalized disruption in recruitment with dramatic consequences for the recovery of the species. However, there were exceptions to this pattern and recruits were recorded in a few sites where the resident population had been decimated. This hints to the importance of unaffected populations as larval exporting sources and the role of oceanographic currents in larval transport in the area, representing a beacon of hope in the current extremely worrying scenario for this emblematic species.En prens
Seafloor Morphology and Processes in the Alboran Sea
The seafloor of the Alboran Sea reflects its complex tectonic, sedimentary, and oceanography dynamics as a consequence of the geological context, involving interaction between the Eurasian and African plates, and oceanographic context, as it is where the Atlantic and Mediterranean waters meet. Their physiography has a semi-enclosed configuration characterized by two margins (the Spanish Iberian and North Africa—mostly Moroccan margins) enclosing deep basins. Tectonic activity is mainly attested by folds and faults that predominantly affect the central and eastern seafloor sectors, as well as numerous seamounts and fluid-flow features (pockmarks, mud volcanoes, and diapirs) that dot the seafloor. The sedimentary and oceanographic processes allow us to distinctly define two principal environments in the Alboran Sea: the shallow proximal margin (continental shelf); and the deep distal margin (continental slope and base of the slope) with the adjacent sub-basins. The shelf mostly comprises prodeltaic and infralittoral prograding wedges, with local bedform fields, submarine valleys, and wave-cut terraces. Coastal and fluvio-marine sedimentary processes, acting since the last glacial period, are responsible for these features. The deep marine environment is characterised by the ubiquity of contourites, whose continuity is interrupted by turbidite systems, canyons, and landslides. The alongslope action of the Mediterranean waters and their interfaces with the Atlantic water has been the main process governing transport, seafloor reworking, and sedimentation of contourites. Mass-movement processes are responsible for the formation of: (1) turbidite systems—turbidity flows and mass flows were dominant during the last glacial sea-level lowstand, evolving to dilute gravity flows during present interglacial high stand; and (2) landslides—the main triggering factors comprising over-steepening, seismicity, under consolidation due to overpressure by interstitial fluids, stratigraphy, and high sedimentation rates. Locally, still-undetermined biological activity in the Spanish and coral activity in the Moroccan margin generated fields of mounded bioconstructions. The seafloor morphology of the Alboran Sea offers interesting clues for assessing the main potential geological hazards, with tectonic seismicity and landslides (as well as their related tsunamis) being some of the most important potential hazards affecting coastal populations. In addition, the seafloor morphology in combination with assemblages of habitat-forming species enables habitat identification and mapping.En prens
