- The climate index-length of stay nexusPublication . Soler, Ismael P.; Gemar, German; Correia, Marisol B.This study sought to analyze the effect of the climate of tourists' region of origin on their length of stay in a specific inland destination as climate of origin has been ignored in previous analyses. The present study collected data from 674 valid surveys of visitors in the selected destination and applied a zero-truncated negative binomial regression model and a Poisson-inverse Gaussian regression model. The results for this destination suggest that climate of origin affects tourists' length of stay. This finding was obtained via the Poisson-inverse Gaussian regression model because of its greater tolerance to long tail distributions. Similarities and differences were found regarding results for other destinations found in the literature. The present findings further include the non-significant effect of reasons for traveling and tourists' satisfaction and the significant influence of tourists' mode of transport, income, and age on length of stay. Cheaper lodging categories also have an important impact on visitors who prefer extended stays.

- Evaluation of an acute osmotic stress in European Sea bass via skin mucus biomarkersPublication . Ordóñez-Grande, Borja; Guerreiro, Pedro Miguel; Sanahuja, Ignasi; Fernández-Alacid, Laura; Ibarz, AntoniEuropean sea bass is a marine teleost which can inhabit a broad range of environmental salinities. So far, no research has studied the physiological response of this fish to salinity challenges using modifications in skin mucus as a potential biological matrix. Here, we used a skin mucus sampling technique to evaluate the response of sea bass to several acute osmotic challenges (for 3 h) from seawater (35%_) to two hypoosmotic environments, diluted brackish water (3%_) and estuarine waters (12%_), and to one hyperosmotic condition (50%_). For this, we recorded the volume of mucus exuded and compared the main stress-related biomarkers and osmosis-related parameters in skin mucus and plasma. Sea bass exuded the greatest volume of skin mucus with the highest total contents of cortisol, glucose, and protein under hyper salinity. This indicates an exacerbated acute stress response with possible energy losses if the condition is sustained over time. Under hypo salinity, the response depended on the magnitude of the osmotic change: shifting to 3%_ was an extreme salinity change, which affected fish aerobic metabolism by acutely modifying lactate exudation. All these data enhance the current scarce knowledge of skin mucus as a target through which to study environmental changes and fish status.
