KOSMOS 2017 Peru Side Experiment: nutrients, phytoplankton abundances, enzyme rates, photophysiology
2022
This data was collected during an short-term incubation experiment in March 2017 that investigated the response of a surface plankton community to upwelling. This experiment was carried in the framework of the SFB754-funded KOSMOS mesocosm study that took place in La Punta, Callao, Peru between February-April 2017. A total of six different treatments were used to disentangle chemical and biological characteristics of deep water that influence surface plankton blooms: 2 different deep water sources with different nutrient concentrations; 3 treatments to distinguish the effects of inorganic nutrients, organic nutrients and deep water microbial populations. Measured variables include inorganic…
recensione di VAVOURANAKIS, GIORGOS, KOPANIAS, KONSTANTINO S, and KANELLOPOULOS, CHRYSANTHOS (eds.) (2018). Popular Religion and Ritual in Prehistori…

Review of the volume that aims to contribute to the analysis of the experiential dimension of cults and beliefs (la religion vécue). The common thread running through the contributions collected here share the basic idea, that religion and ritual have to do with the collective ethos and the values they regulate the functioning of the company, thanks to their "performative stability" mechanism.
Modes of Religiosity in Iberian Iron Age Caves: Religious Behaviour and Sensorial Experience
2021
The Iberian Iron Age caves are defined as a specific model of sacred space. First, from a territorial perspective, they are identified as liminal spaces where the collective participation, integration and the sense of belonging is reinforced. And secondly, as multisensory contexts, where different ritual practices, highly symbolised, are performed. These spheres, cut off from the well-known and daily scenarios boost the sensory hypersensitivity, strengthened by the connection between the senses and the natural scenario. This paper is guided by the theory of religiosity modes, developed by H. Whitehouse, with the purpose of a better understanding of the ritual practices that were carried out…
Simbiosi fra passato e contemporaneità nel recupero delle architetture
2012
Oggigiorno, vi è la possibilità di ottenere il recupero della memoria e l'identità di una città, analizzando l'efficienza degli interventi e l'efficacia dei risultati. Partendo da una metodologia di ricerca sperimentale è possibile definire e migliorare l'ambiente costruito, sia antico che contemporaneo. Riconosciamo la necessità di un rinnovato impegno alle questioni poste dalla città contemporanea per immaginare e prefigurare nuovi scenari di “costruibilità” che tengano conto dell’efficienza energetica. Nowdays, there is the possibility to obtain the recovery of the memory and the identity of a city, considering to achieve efficiency and effectiveness of the results. Starting with an over…
Carbon stocks in a 50‑year‑oldEucalyptus camaldulensisstand in Sicily, Italy
2015
Eucalyptus stands in semi-arid areas may contribute to enhance carbon (C) stocks in both biomass and soil. However, the limited information available is mainly focused on short-rotation plantations. In this study, the above- and below-ground C pools in five 50-year-old Eucalyptus camaldulensis Dehnh. stands planted on Miocenic evaporitic deposits in Sicily, Italy, with a xeric and thermic pedoclimate, were measured. Above-ground biomass was determined by partitioning and weighing branches, stem and leaves. Below-ground C pools included the determination of litter, root biomass, and soil organic and inorganic C. In terms of the above-ground biomass, the E. camaldulensis stand accumulated on …
