Summary: The study estimated that there are at least 572 species and subspecies with elaiosome-bearing diaspores in the Ibero-Balearic territory, with almost one-third of them being endemic. The myrmecochorous species richness in this area is positively correlated with ruggedness, latitude, and longitude. Most of the species are perennial herbs that prefer basic substrates and are found in forests, scrubs, and anthropized sites.

Summary: The study examines the synoptic patterns associated with tornadic events on the Iberian Peninsula and the Balearic Islands. By analyzing data from 1950 to 2021, the researchers classified the tornadic events into 12 synoptic patterns based on geopotential height and mean sea level pressure. They also analyzed various variables related to weather conditions and found that tornadoes are typically associated with warm, moist low-level advection and specific humidity relative maxima. Additionally, different teleconnection patterns were found to influence the occurrence of tornadoes.

Summary: Heat waves have become a major concern in the current climate change scenario due to their impact on human health, the economy, and their increasing intensity and frequency. This study presents a climatological analysis of heat waves in the Iberian Peninsula and Balearic Archipelago using the Excess Heat Factor index. The results show a significant increase in the intensity, duration, frequency, and spatial extension of heat waves in the region, indicating a higher risk of human exposure, droughts, fires, and energy demand.

Summary: This study reviews the natural communities of Pinus halepensis in Spain. Analysis of 400 plant communities resulted in the proposal of new associations and alliances. The study also suggests a new ombroedaphoxeric index for diagnosing the communities. The findings provide valuable information for reforestation efforts in accordance with the natural environment.

Summary: Rare studies on Li isotope systematics of ore-forming fluids in mesothermal deposits, especially orogenic gold deposits, were carried out on samples from the Canzhuang gold deposit in East China. Results showed significant variations in Li isotopic compositions of altered-rock and quartz-vein type gold deposits, indicating distinct ore-forming processes and fluid evolutions. This work highlights the potential for Li isotopes in quartz and pyrite to provide insights into mesothermal hydrothermal system evolution.

Summary: This paper aims to analyze the origin of a thirteenth century lead ingot from Wroclaw, Poland through various archaeometric methods. The research shows that both the studied ingot and a similar one from Krakow originated from lead-zinc ore deposits in Poland, providing valuable data for future comparative studies.

Summary: This study examined the impact of geography and habitat on phycobiont diversity in populations of Buellia zoharyi from the Iberian Peninsula and Balearic Islands. The results showed that this lichen can associate with distinct phycobiont strains in different habitats and geographic regions. Additionally, the selection of thallus parts for DNA extraction in metabarcoding analyses is crucial to avoid bias in total phycobiont diversity detected.

Summary: The study reveals distinct characteristics of iron isotopes in magmatic and magmatic-hydrothermal origin iron deposits, indicating fractionation processes in magma immiscibility and hydrothermal fluid exsolution. This suggests that iron isotopes can effectively discriminate between mineral deposits of different origins.

Summary: This study revises the entomological material and nomenclatural types of the Ibero-Balearic species of the Tentyria genus. It proposes a new classification and reordering of species groups, establishing thirteen groups of species including 31 species and six subspecies. Additionally, it describes and illustrates seven new species from Portugal and five from Spain, as well as three new subspecies. The study also clarifies the true identity of historically confused species, modifies certain taxonomic statuses and names, designates lectotypes, establishes synonymies, indicates species distribution, and provides a key for species identification.

Summary: This study presents a new database of copper ores from Mallorca and Menorca, aiming to characterize copper resources and contribute to studies on the origins of archaeological materials in the Western Mediterranean. Analyses of archaeological metals from Mallorca's Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Age periods suggest that copper was mainly sourced from the east coast of the Iberian Peninsula, Languedoc, and Menorca. Despite overlapping isotopic fields, the results demonstrate the usefulness of such a database for provenance studies in the Western Mediterranean.

Summary: The Liaoshang gold deposit in the Jiaodong Peninsula is influenced by fluid from the crust and mantle, as evidenced by the composition of fluid inclusions in pyrite and dolomite. The ore-forming fluids and materials have multiple and complex sources, and the tectono-magmatic activities during the Mesozoic period control the formation and distribution of the gold orebodies. This study provides important insights for the exploration and exploitation of gold resources in the region.

Summary: This study presents new geochemical data and radiometric ages of metamafic and felsic rocks from the Cabo Ortegal Complex, providing insights into the formation of the Cadomian magmatic arc and the initiation of continental rifting. The study suggests that the Cadomian arc experienced a vanishing active subduction in the interval of 510-460Ma, leading to forearc sedimentation, extension, and back-arc basin formation. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the geologic evolution and continental tectonics in the region.
