Extent and persistence of soil water repellency induced by pines in different geographic regions

2018

The extent (determined by the repellency indices RI and RIc) and persistence (determined by the water drop penetration time, WDPT) of soil water repellency (SWR) induced by pines were assessed in vastly different geographic regions. The actual SWR characteristics were estimated in situ in clay loam soil at Ciavolo, Italy (CiF), sandy soil at Culbin, United Kingdom (CuF), silty clay soil at Javea, Spain (JaF), and sandy soil at Sekule, Slovakia (SeF). For Culbin soil, the potential SWR characteristics were also determined after oven-drying at 60°C (CuD). For two of the three pine species considered, strong (Pinus pinaster at CiF) and severe (Pinus sylvestris at CuD and SeF) SWR conditions we…

The WHO-5 Well-Being Index – Validation based on item response theory and the analysis of measurement invariance across 35 countries.

2020

Abstract Background The five-item World Health Organization Well-Being Index (WHO-5) is a frequently used brief standard measure in large-scale cross-cultural clinical studies. Despite its frequent use, some psychometric questions remain that concern the choice of an adequate item response theory (IRT) model, the evaluation of reliability at important cutoff points, and most importantly the assessment of measurement invariance across countries. Methods Data from the 6th European Working Condition survey (2015) were used that collected nationally representative samples of employed and self-employed individuals (N = 43,469) via computer-aided personal interviews across 35 European countries. …

Optimized and automated estimation of vegetation properties: Opportunities for Sentinel-2

2014

La Biosfera es uno de los principales sistemas que conforman la Tierra. Su estudio permite comprender la relación entre la vegetación y el ciclo del carbono y cómo éste puede ser afectado por los cambios en los niveles de CO2 y los usos de suelo. Para el estudio de estas dinámicas a escala global y local, han sido desarrollados diversos modelos que son representaciones de la realidad en una escala y complejidad más simple. Parte de las variables de entrada de estos modelos son obtenidas mediante medidas de teledetección gracias al Global Climate Observing System (GCOS), que ha determinado un conjunto de 50 variables climáticas esenciales que contribuyen a los estudios de cambio climático qu…

Patients' and physicians' preferences for type 2 diabetes mellitus treatments in Spain and Portugal: a discrete choice experiment.

2015

Objective: To assess Spanish and Portuguese patients' and physicians' preferences regarding type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) treatments and the monthly willingness to pay (WTP) to gain benefits or avoid side effects. Methods: An observational, multicenter, exploratory study focused on routine clinical practice in Spain and Portugal. Physicians were recruited from multiple hospitals and outpatient clinics, while patients were recruited from eleven centers operating in the public health care system in different autonomous communities in Spain and Portugal. Preferences were measured via a discrete choice experiment by rating multiple T2DM medication attributes. Data were analyzed using the cond…

Effects of rapid thermal annealing on the optical properties of low-loss 1.3μm GaInNAs∕GaAs saturable Bragg reflectors

2004

We report studies of the effect of rapid thermal annealing (RTA) on the optical properties of a low-loss 1.3 mum saturable Bragg reflector (SBR), consisting of a GaInNAs/GaAs single quantum well embedded in an AlAs/GaAs Bragg reflector grown monolithically on a GaAs substrate. RTA gives rise to a blueshift of the photoluminescence (PL) peak (and therefore of the excitonic absorption peak) and an enhancement of PL intensity, while the reflectivity properties including peak reflectivity and bandwidth are not degraded. Temperature dependent photoluminescence measurements show that the RTA-induced blueshift of photoluminescence consists of two components: one originating from the increase of op…

Efficacy of an internet-based psychological intervention for problem gambling and gambling disorder: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

2021

Gambling Disorder is a prevalent non-substance use disorder, which contrasts with the low number of people requesting treatment. Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) could help to enhance the dissemination of evidence-based treatments and considerably reduce the costs. The current study seeks to assess the efficacy of an online psychological intervention for people suffering from gambling problems in Spain. The proposed study will be a two-arm, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial. A total of 134 participants (problem and pathological gamblers) will be randomly allocated to a waiting list control group (N = 67) or an intervention group (N = 67). The intervention program i…

Synthesis and characterization of chalcogenide glasses from the system Ga-Ge-Sb-S and preparation of a single-mode fiber at 1.55 μm

2008

International audience; The aim of this work is to study different compositions in the Ga-Ge-Sb-S system for the definition of two compositions compatible with the elaboration of a single-mode fiber at the 1.55 μm telecom wavelength. The variations of the glass transition temperature (Tg), the dilatation coefficient (α) and the refractive index (n) have been studied for two glasses series: GaxGe25−xSb10S65 (series 1), Ga5Ge25−xSb10S60+x (series 2). This study has lead to the choice of the Ga4Ge21Sb10S65 composition as clad glass for the preparation of the single-mode fiber and Ga5Ge20Sb10S65 composition as the core. The discrepancies for the studied parameters between the core and clad comp…

Ortodontiskās ārstēšanas nepieciešamības indeksa (IONT) izmantošana minētajiem Latvijas iedzīvotājiem

2020

Priekšvēsture: Ortodontiskos indeksus visā pasaulē izmanto, lai noteiktu pacientu ortodontisko stāvokli. Visā pasaulē netiek izmantots vienots standarts. Viens no populārākajiem ortodontiskajiem indeksiem ir ortodontiskās ārstēšanas nepieciešamības indekss (IOTN) un Engla klasifikācija (Han & Davidson, 2001).Ortodontiskie indeksi palīdz noteikt nepareizu sakodienu un nosaka pacienta ortodontisko stāvokli. Tas nozīmē, ka ārstēšanā prioritāte tiek piešķirta tiem, kam tā vispirms nepieciešama, un tas palīdz pamatoti un taisnīgi sadalīt resursus (Tang, 1993).Papildus šiem aspektiem, kas saistīti ar cilvēku nepareiza sakodiena izvērtējumu, tie palīdz arī iz…
