The change in urban mobility patterns due to the restrictions imposed on the population during lockdown is a phenomenon that can be parameterized and studied from the perspective of spatial analysis. This study proposes an analysis of the guiding parameters of these changes from the perspective of spatial analysis. To do so, the case study of the city of Cartagena, a medium-sized city in Spain, has been analyzed throughout the period of mobility restrictions due to COVID-19. By means of a geostatistical analysis, changes in urban mobility patterns and the modal distribution of transport have been correlated with the evolution of environmental air quality indicators in the city. The results show that despite the positive effect of the pandemic in its beginnings on the environmental impact of urban mobility, the changes generated in the behavior patterns of current mobility users favor the most polluting modes of travel in cities.","PeriodicalId":309177,"journal":{"name":"The 4th International Electronic Conference on Environmental Research and Public Health—Climate Change and Health in a Broad Perspective","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126943282","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mourão, Ana Sampaio","doi":"10.3390/ecerph-4-13071","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3390/ecerph-4-13071","url":null,"abstract":": In general, the assessment of microbiological quality in aquatic systems focuses on the presence of some bacterial groups or species. Although Fungi is not a mandatory microbiological parameter, recently the WHO advises its detection/quantification. Its concentration and diversity varies greatly among the various types of aquatic systems. Fungi are mesophilic, dependent on organic matter to growth, and their presence can be associated with pollution. Depending on their concentration and diversity, fungi may pose a risk to human and animal health. The objective of the present work was to evaluate the presence of some bacterial indicators ( Escherichia coli , fecal enterococci, among others) and fungi (total, yeasts and molds) in freshwater reservoirs (water tanks) with different sources, sun exposures, anthropogenic and animal influences. Additionally, it was intended to assess the diversity of molds. For this, filamentous colonies were isolated, purified and morphologically identified (whenever possible to the genus). The three tanks differed in bacterial (presence of Escherichia coli , fecal enterococci, Proteus sp. and Staphylococcus aureus ) and fungal (total and mold) presence. Regarding molds, 16 different taxa were identified and, depending on the water tank, Penicillium , Aspergillus and Fusarium genera and the Chytridiomycota phylum were the most representative. Some of the taxa isolated may pose a risk to human and animal health ( Trichophyton , Aspergillus fumigatus , and some dematiaceous). The water reservoirs presented different fungal communities. Although preliminary, the results show that freshwater tanks can be a source of potentially pathogenic bacteria and fungi, to humans and animals that use them.","PeriodicalId":309177,"journal":{"name":"The 4th International Electronic Conference on Environmental Research and Public Health—Climate Change and Health in a Broad Perspective","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134153597","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
