The performance indicators from the Barcelona study are listed in Tables 10.2 and 10.3. 

DSPP study were found to be associated with the very low recall rates. The PPV, for both the imaging techniques was considerably lower in the Barcelona study when compared with the other European studies, hut was still higher than those found in the US studies (Table 10.2).

The water temperature and thermal behaviour of the reservoirs of Mequinensa and Riba-roja have been dealt with in different studies and reports. These include water quality controls commissioned by the Ebro River Authority, the CHE [36-39], some study by the Catalan Water Authority, the ACA [42], several degree and PhD thesis at the Technical School of Civil Engineering of Barcelona [43—48] and research projects aimed to study the dispersion of the zebra mussel Dreissena polymorpha [40, 41]. However, the reservoir with the most information available regarding its thermal behaviour is the reservoir of Riba-roja as it has received an important research effort because of the invasion of zebra mussel.

The occurrence of APEO or their metabolites (AP and carboxylated derivatives) was also studied in two tributaries of the Llobregat river (northeastern Spain). The Llobregat river is one of the most important sources of drinking water for the Barcelona area with a population of 3.2 million people. Since 1960, the effluents from tannery, textile, pulp and paper industries, situated along the river basin, have discharged into the river and several comprehensive studies [15—17] have been performed in order to determine the levels of estrogenic alkylphenolic compounds (and steroid sex hormones) and to study the effects of WWTP effluents on the reproductive physiology of fish.

In Barcelona in 1323, Herve Nedelic, General of the Dominican Friars, pronounced the penalty of excommunication against all clericals who should apply themselves to the study of alchemy or should not within eight days burn all books of that character which might be in their hands. Haureau2 considers this as circumstantial evidence that the alchemical treatises attributed to St. Thomas Aquinas were not yet issued, a conclusion in harmony with all known facts, for no allusions to any of these works are known until much later. 

To assess the provenance of majolica pottery found in the Canary Islands, a sample of 55 sherds was obtained from two sites on Gran Canaria Island La Cueva Pintada (G ldar) and El Antiguo Convento de San Francisco (Las Palmas de Gran Canaria). The pottery was studied by X-ray fluorescence, instrumental neutron activation analysis, and X-ray diffraction. The results show one group that matches a reference group from Seville, an assessment that supports the historical record. However, the data also reveal samples whose provenance corresponds to other production centers on the Iberian Peninsula, such as Manises, Barcelona, and, possibly, an unknown Portuguese center. Moreover, it is possible that Italian and Dutch pottery have been identified thereby providing a complexity factor to the historical accounts. 

The present study suggests the arrival of ceramics and possibly other goods, from different places around the Mediterranean, such as Italy, Manises, Barcelona, Portugal, and possibly Holland. The extent of the participation of all these different productions centers, and their impact and the variety of products involved in this process remains to be determined. However, this study shows that the trade netwoik, the most important one at that time, was far more complex than previously assumed. The exact mechanisms by which the different pottery enters these flows, whether it is licit or illicit, is not easily understood, but the work must be extended in order to obtain a more comprehensive picture. The Canary Island s role in this network becomes, then, a central subject of research.
