This is a guide to the most usual species of birds to be found in the Spanish national park ‘Parque Nacional de Doñana’, which includes index, cards, pictures, descriptions, and scientific and vernacular designations. Amongst everglades, reserves, sand dunes and beaches, River Guadalquivir creates a paradise inhabited by birds originating from Europe and Africa. It is a 543 square kilometres area holding survival for part of the fauna and flora in the whole world. This is a guidebook to help you learn about the species that inhabit in the Doñana National Park and its surroundings, in the southeast of the Iberian Peninsula. It contains 150 cards including exclusive pictures made by the authors themselves. These cards hold the data and characteristics of the species, with the scientific and vernacular names. It is a basic, fundamental booklet in order to watch the bird life in this privileged territory, considered to be the major biodiversity space in the south of Europe, involving marshlands, woods, beaches and everglades.
Fountains of Granada is a graphic documentary, a work created in order to provide information about the public fountains around the historic and most beautiful spots in the city. It is divided in four itineraries designed to reveal the small fountains of the Alhambra, the Albaicín, the Realejo and the historic centre of Granada. These artistic structures were erected in order to fill the jugs and pitchers which quenched the thirst of the inhabitants of palaces and that of the citizens in streets and squares. Works of art, commemorative monuments and modest hydraulic structures which still today fulfil their main purpose: provide drinking water. The book includes about one hundred exclusive photos arranged four itineraries which traverse the water network

This edited volume is based on the best papers accepted for presentation during the 1st Springer Conference of the Arabian Journal of Geosciences (CAJG-1), Tunisia 2018. The book is of interest to all researchers in the fields of Mineralogy, Geochemistry, Petrology and Volcanology. The Earth's interior is a source of heat, which makes our planet unique. This source regulates the formation and evolution of rocks at larger scales, and of minerals and sediments toward smaller scales. In such context, the exploration of georesources (products) has to be related to petrogenesis (processes). This volume offers an overview of the state-of-the-art petrogenesis and exploration in, but not limited to, the Middle East and Mediterranean regions. It gives new insights into processes and products related to the Earth's interior, and associated georesources by international researchers. Main topics include: 1. Petrogenetic processes: geochemistry, geochronology and geophysical approaches 2. Surficial processes: sedimentation and facies analysis 3. Applied mineralogy and tectonics 4. Geological research applied to mineral deposits
