Rejoinder on: Natural Induction: An Objective Bayesian Approach

2009

Giron and Moreno. We certainly agree with Professors Giron and Moreno on the interest in sensitivity of any Bayesian result to changes in the prior. That said, we also consider of considerable pragmatic importance to be able to single out a unique, particular prior which may reasonably be proposed as the reference prior for the problem under study, in the sense that the corresponding posterior of the quantity of interest could be routinely used in practice when no useful prior information is available or acceptable. This is precisely what we have tried to do for the twin problems of the rule of succession and the law of natural induction. The discussants consider the limiting binomial versi…

Investigating the influence of climate changes on rodent communities at a regional-scale (MIS 1-3, southwestern France).

2016

25 pages; International audience; Terrestrial ecosystems have continuously evolved throughout the Late Pleistocene and theHolocene, deeply affected by both progressive environmental and climatic modifications, aswell as by abrupt and large climatic changes such as the Heinrich or Dansgaard-Oeschgerevents. Yet, the impacts of these different events on terrestrial mammalian communities arepoorly known, as is the role played by potential refugia on geographical species distributions.This study examines community changes in rodents of southwestern France between50 and 10 ky BP by integrating 94 dated faunal assemblages coming from 37 archaeologicalsites. This work reveals that faunal distributi…

Large Blooms of

2018

ABSTRACT Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) account for a substantial portion of primary production in dryland ecosystems. They successionally mature to deliver a suite of ecosystem services, such as carbon sequestration, water retention and nutrient cycling, and climate regulation. Biocrust assemblages are extremely well adapted to survive desiccation and to rapidly take advantage of the periodic precipitation events typical of arid ecosystems. Here we focus on the wetting response of incipient cyanobacterial crusts as they mature from “light” to “dark.” We sampled a cyanobacterial biocrust chronosequence before (dry) and temporally following a controlled wetting event and used high-throug…

Beierwaltes nella corrente dell'eriugenismo: la duplex theoria e lo statuto trascendentale della manifestazione

2007

L'articolo ricostruisce e discute il nucleo tematico dell'interpretazione del platonismo medievale elaborata da Beierwaltes e segnatamente della funzione centrale in esso del pensiero dell'Eriugena, mostrandone l'operatività nei successivi sviluppi della dialettica della contrazione.

Early plant succession in two abandoned cut-over peatland areas

1990

Initial stages of plant succession (from 0 to 8 or 9 yr) were studied on abandoned peat harvest sites of two adjacent areas in Finland. At the Mustasuo area only 13 field layer species, all perennials, and 3 ground layer species became established during that period and species composition stayed relatively constant. All species occurred sparsely with low biomass. The Riitasuo area was colonized by 43 field layer and 19 ground layer species during the first 8 yr of succession. In that area the originally plantless sites were totally covered by plants within a few years. Many of the first species to arrive were annuals, most of which were soon replaced by perennial species. The great differe…

2018

Il volume di Roberto Quiros ha quale oggetto la politica, intesa come pratica di governo, di Carlo d’Asburgo nella penisola italiana, uno dei teatri principali della guerra. L’Autore, attraverso un ampio uso di fonti archivistiche, articola il suo lavoro attorno a tre punti principali: l’organizzazione della macchina amministrativa all’indomani della conquista del ducato di Milano e del regno di Napoli (1707); l’integrazione dell’élite italiana all’interno della monarchia carolina; il “potere esecutivo”, tra cambi e continuità.
