Atmospheric circulation modulates the spatial variability of temperature in the Atlantic-Arctic region

2019

International audience; The Arctic region has experienced significant warming during the past two decades with major implications on the cryosphere. The causes of Arctic amplification are still an open question within the scientific community, attracting recent interest. The goal of this study is to quantify the contribution of atmospheric circulation on temperature variability in the Atlantic–Arctic region at decadal to intra‐annual timescales from 1951 to 2014. Daily 20th Century reanalyses geopotential height anomalies at 500 hPa were clustered into different weather regimes to assess their contribution to observed temperature variability. The results show that in winter, 25% of the warm…

AMMORTIZZATORI SOCIALI E NUOVE PROSPETTIVE DI WELFARE

In linea con la costruzione di un Modello sociale europeo e con i principi di flexicurity e lotta all’esclusione sociale elaborati nel quadro della Strategia Europa 2020, lo studio ripercorre le tappe dell’auspicato processo di razionalizzazione/universalizzazione del sistema degli ammortizzatori sociali in Italia, al fine di conciliare le istanze di flessibilità del mercato del lavoro con un incremento della sicurezza sociale e dell’occupabilità. In particolare, si analizzano le rilevanti modifiche introdotte dalla legge n. 92 del 2012 (cd. Riforma Fornero), nonché quelle proposte, a distanza di neanche due anni, nell’ennesimo percorso di riforma prefigurato all’interno del cd. Jobs Act , …

Inspiratory Muscle Strength and Cardiorespiratory Fitness Association With Health-Related Quality of Life in Healthy Older Adults

2021

The main purpose of this study was to explore similarities and differences in the association between two capabilities affecting the cardiorespiratory system (overall and multifactorial cardiorespiratory fitness and inspiratory muscle strength) and the health-related quality of life (HRQoL), in a group of active healthy seniors. Sixty-five individuals (age, 73.01 ± 5.27 years; 53 women) who participated regularly in a multicomponent training program completed the EuroQol 5D-5L questionnaire, the 6-min walking test (6MWT), and the maximum inspiratory pressure test (MIP). Non-parametric correlations (Spearman's rho) were conducted to analyze the association between HRQoL indices (EQindex and …

The role of the agreement as a tool for management of property relations in cases of cross border marriages and civil unions/partnerships registered …

2021

The essay examines the role of the agreement as a tool for managing property relationships in crossborder marriages and registered partnerships, in light of EU Regulations 1103 and 1104 of 2016, on the property regimes of international married or registered couples. The main prerogative of such acts is the recognition of the parties? freedom to choose the court and the applicable law. The law governing the matrimonial property regimes, or the property consequences of registered partnerships, has universal scope. This agreement in the form envisaged, which is backed by the need for legal certainty and predictability of the applicable rules, means that the spouses, in family problems which ha…

Effects of a Job Crafting Intervention Program on Work Engagement Among Japanese Employees: A Randomized Controlled Trial

2020

Objective The current randomized controlled trial investigated the effectiveness of a job crafting intervention program on work engagement as the primary outcome and job crafting as the secondary outcome among Japanese employees. Methods Participants who met the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned to an intervention group (n = 138) or a control group (n = 143). The job crafting intervention program provided only to the intervention group consisted of two 120-minute group sessions with e-mail or letter follow-up. Outcomes were assessed at baseline and at 3-month and 6-month follow-up in both groups. Results In the total sample, the job crafting intervention program showed a non-signifi…

La organización del trabajo por proyectos: La fábrica de la precariedad laboral

2019

The project-based organization, considered as a radical reorganization of work around one or more simultaneous projects, is nowadays widespread in large companies and public administrations. According to the managerial way of thinking, this system would be virtuous: by giving more autonomy to the employees in the act of production and by developing their skills through mobility and interdisciplinarity of work teams, it would be able to arouse their full commitment. This study confirms in some way how this opinion has been imposed, but at the expense of precarious working conditions, increasing the dedication of employees and silencing any form of criticism. The research is based on a review…

Wyodrębnione jednostki organizacyjne kościoła katolickiego. Stan de lege lata i postulaty de lege ferenda

2021

W artykule zostanie przeprowadzona analiza statusu prawnego wyodrębnionych kościelnych jednostek organizacyjnych, o których mowa w art. 12 Ustawy z dnia 17 maja 1989 r. o stosunku państwa do Kościoła katolickiego w Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej, uznanych przez właściwego miejscowo dyrektora izby administracji skarbowej za odrębne podmioty podatkowe. Zostanie wykazane, że ustalona w wymienionym przepisie reguła, iż jednostki te są wyłącznie organizacyjnym wyodrębnieniem w ramach kościelnych osób prawnych, z których osobowości prawnej korzystają w obrocie prawnym w stosunkach z podmiotami trzecimi, doznaje wyjątków na gruncie prawa pracy i prawa podatkowego. Ponadto zostaną wskazane mankamenty ob…

The mitogen-activated protein kinase p38 pathway is conserved in metazoans: Cloning and activation of p38 of the SAPK2 subfamily from the sponge Sube…

2000

Our recent data suggest that during auto- and allograft recognition in sponges (Porifera), cytokines are differentially expressed. Since the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signal transduction modulates the synthesis and release of cytokines, we intended to identify one key molecule of this pathway. Therefore, a cDNA from the marine sponge Suberites domuncula encoding the MAPK was isolated and analyzed. Its encoded protein is 366 amino acids long (calculated Mr 42 209), has a TGY dual phosphorylation motif in protein kinase subdomain VIII and displays highest overall similarity to the mammalian p38 stress activated protein kinase (SAPK2), one subfamily of MAPKs. The sponge protein w…
