Composición química de las aguas envasadas (minerales naturales y minero-medicinales) de la España peninsular

[ES] El trabajo presenta una recopilación de 189 análisis qUlmlcos (sólo especies mayoritarias) de aguas envasadas distribuidas por todo el territorio de la España peninsular, la mayoría de las cuales tienen la calificación de minero-medicinales y/o minerales naturales. Seleccionando 76 análisis, cada uno de una marca distinta, se compara la distribución de iones con los valores para aguas continentales potables dados por Davis y De Wiest (1966, pp.142). El resultado es que las aguas envasadas no difieren sustancialmente de la composición química de las aguas continentales: resultan ser un poco más salinas, predomina la facies bicarbonatada cálcica y parece que los procesos geoquímicos que controlan la salinidad son los misp10s que para las aguas continentales, salvo para un pequeño porcentaje (menor del 15 %) de agu~s de alta salinidad.

Grain size, morphometry and mineralogy of airborne input in the Canary basin: evidence of iron particle retention in the mixed layer

[EN]Aeolian dust plays an important role in climate and ocean processes. Particularly, Saharan dust deposition is of importance in the Canary Current due to its content of iron minerals, which are fertilizers of the ocean. In this work, dust particles are characterized mainly by granulometry, morphometry and mineralogy, using image processing and scanning northern Mauritania and the Western Sahara. The concentration of terrigenous material was measured in three environments: the atmosphere (300 m above sea level), the mixed layer at 10 m depth, and 150 m depth. Samples were collected before and during the dust events, thus allowing the effect of Saharan dust inputs in the water column to be assessed. The dominant grain size was coarse silt
