Profetismo político, milenarismo y creencias mesiánicas en el último periodo del reinado de Fernando el Católico (1500-1516)
2019
This study analyzes the presence of messianic and millennial beliefs in the last period of Ferdinand the Catholic?s reign. For this and after a brief state of the art, we analyze the use of the Christian prophecy of the millennium in speeches and memorials arising from the war in Naples, the North African campaign and the Pisan schism.
Cross-hemispheric transport of central African biomass burning pollutants: implications for downwind ozone production
2010
Pollutant plumes with enhanced concentrations of trace gases and aerosols were observed over the southern coast of West Africa during August 2006 as part of the AMMA wet season field campaign. Plumes were observed both in the mid and upper troposphere. In this study we examined the origin of these pollutant plumes, and their potential to photochemically produce ozone (O<sub>3</sub>) downwind over the Atlantic Ocean. Their possible contribution to the Atlantic O<sub>3</sub> maximum is also discussed. Runs using the BOLAM mesoscale model including biomass burning carbon monoxide (CO) tracers were used to confirm an origin from central African biomass burning fires. The…
Puhekaverina botti
2020
Viestivät tekoälyt eli luonnollisella kielellä käytävään keskusteluun kykenevät algoritmit ovat yhä tyypillisempiä vuorovaikutuskumppaneita erilaisilla teknologisilla alustoilla. Yksi tyypillinen viestivän tekoälyn muoto on botti: automaattinen ohjelma, joka käyttää verkkopalvelun käyttäjätiliä tavallisen käyttäjän tavoin ja suorittaa yksinkertaisia toimintoja tai viestii. Tyypillisesti botit tavalla tai toisella pyrkivät näyttäytymään ihmiskäyttäjinä, tai ainakin niille ohjelmoidaan ja suunnitellaan ihmisenkaltaisia piirteitä.Artikkeli tarkastelee bottien roolia vuorovaikutuskumppaneina sisäisessä ja julkisessa mediatilassa kytkeytymällä tuoreeseen ihmis-koneviestinnän tutkimusalaan.

The Kleiner Feldberg Cloud Experiment 1990. An overview
1994
An overview is given of the Kleiner Feldberg cloud experiment performed from 27 October until 13 November 1990. The experiment was carried out by numerous European research groups as a joint effort within the EUROTRAC-GCE project in order to study the interaction of cloud droplets with atmospheric trace constituents. After a description of the observational site and the measurements which were performed, the general cloud formation mechanisms encountered during the experiment are discussed. Special attention is given here to the process of moist adiabatic lifting. Furthermore, an overview is given regarding the pollutant levels in the gas phase, the particulate and the liquid phase, and som…
"Travailler plus pour gagner plus". Análisis cultural de un lema de la campaña presidencial francesa del 2007
2019
“Travailler plus pour gagner plus” (“Work more to earn more”) was a slogan of right-wing candidate Nicolas Sarkozy during the 2007 French presidential election, which proposed exempting overtime working hours from taxation. In this article, I develop a cultural analysis of this political slogan. Its linguistic interest lies in its poetic and theatrical dimensions. The slogan is embedded in a rich cultural context: it refers to a doxa in right-wing discourse, according to which the “social model” should be replaced with a liberal model that also rescues the “value of work”. It responded to voter economic and social concerns, which were supported by the media. Through such strong slogans, Nic…
Welcome aboard: are birds migrating across the Mediterranean Sea using ships as stopovers during adverse weather conditions?
2022
Birds use stopovers during migration to interrupt endurance flight in order to minimize immediate and/or future fitness costs. Stopovers on ships is considered an exceptional and anecdotal event in the ornithological literature. This does not match the experience we had in the summer of 2021, during an oceanographic campaign in the Central Mediterranean, when we regularly observed on average 2.8 birds, of at least 13 species, stopping on board during the 25 days of the campaign. The median stopping time was 42 min, ranging from a few minutes to overnight stays on board. The probability of finding a bird stopping aboard increased with wind force and cloud cover. Birds also stopped more often…
Genres of participation in social networking systems: A study of the 2009 Norwegian parliamentary election
2010
Published version of a chapter in the book: Electronic Participation. Also available at http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-15158-3_9 In the Norwegian context, eParticipation in the form of online campaigning has been on the agenda since 2001. After Obama’s successful presidential campaign in 2008, expectations about the use of SNS in the Norwegian parliamentary election were high. This study explores genres of participation in the early stages of the 2009 Norwegian parliamentary election campaign. The main finding is that the political parties have seen the need for a presence in SNS’, and that a genre repertoire for political communication through SNS is beginning to evolve. However, ther…
Blogs ciudadanos en las elecciones españolas de 2008: asimilación de la agenda y reproducción de la lógica partidista
2012
El presente estudio se propone dilucidar las características de la blogosfera política española durante la campaña de 2008 mediante una muestra de tres reputados blogs ciudadanos y esclarecer si se produce una discusión ciudadana independiente de la agenda partidista y mediática. El análisis de contenido permitirá identificar el tipo de cobertura que estos blogs realizan sobre la campaña a través de las siguientes variables: enlaces, temas principales, protagonistas y valoraciones de los autores. Las conclusiones sugieren una significativa fragmentación de la blogosfera en espacios ideológicos, carentes de conexión entre sí y tendentes a la polarización del discurso. The present study inten…

Experimental Analysis of the Thermal Performance of Wood Fiber Insulating Panels
2023
During the last decades, attention to energy and environmental problems has significantly grown, along with the development of international and national policies addressing sustainability issues. In the construction sector, one of the most widespread energy efficiency strategies consists of thermal insulation of buildings thanks to external insulating panels. Among these, wood fiber is an insulating material characterized by a natural, eco-sustainable and biodegradable structure, coming from the recycling of waste wood from sawmills. The present study aimed to characterize small test building insulated with wood fiber panels from the thermal point of view, comparing the results with those …
