Committing, engaging and negotiating : Teachers’ stories about creating shared spaces for co-teaching
2019
The study examined teachers’ stories on developing co-teaching partnerships. The narratives of three two-teacher teams were used to illustrate joint professional landscapes. The teams narrated the development process as one in which commitment, engagement and negotiation were the key elements in shaping their professional landscapes. The findings indicate wide variation in the role of shared understanding and related engagement in co-constructing co-teaching practices. peerReviewed
Effect of oil lamination between plasticized starch layers on film properties
2016
International audience; To reduce the hygroscopic character of biodegradable starch-based films, rapeseed oil was incorporated by lamination (starch-oil-starch 3-layers technique). The lipid lamination followed by starch solution casting step induced an emulsion type structure of dried films. Composite films are more opalescent and glossier than fatty free starch films. For all the films, structure is heterogeneous in the cross-section only. Adding fat induced a twice decrease of the tensile strength. Thermal gravimetry analysis did not show differences between films with and without oil. Lipid reduced the moisture absorption particularly at higher RH as well as the surface swelling index, …
Vegetation dynamics on abandoned terraces of Sicily: the course and driving forces of succession
2007
In Mediterranean Europe, terrace landscapes can be found where 1) the orography is characterized by hills or mountains, 2) there is a high amount of stone outcrops and 3) the human need for agricultural production was quite high till the recent past. During the last century, many of these landscapes have been abandoned, due to their unsuitability for mechanized, intensive agriculture and due to the general land abandonment trend which arised in large parts of Europe. Since with land abandonment start secondary succession processes, the plant and animal communities linked to agroecosystems are replaced by other species which find their habitat in the developing succession stages. This proces…

Skeleton-Based Multiview Reconstruction
2016
International audience; The advantage of skeleton-based 3D reconstruction is to completely generate a single 3D object from well chosen views. Having numerous views is necessary for a reliable reconstruction but projections of skeletons lead to different topologies. We reconstruct 3D objects with curved medial axis (whose topology is a tree) from the perspective skeletons on an arbitrary number of calibrated acquisitions. The main contribution is to estimate the 3D skeleton, from multiple images: its topology is chosen as the closest to those of the perspective skeletons on the set of images, which means that the number of topology changes to map the 3D skeleton topology to topologies on im…
Apes vietvārdi
2018
Bakalaura darba nosaukums ir „Apes vietvārdi”. Darba mērķis – iespējami vispusīga Apes pagasta un pilsētas vietvārdu analīze, izmantojot tam piemērotākos klasifikācijas veidus. Darba uzdevumos ietilpst apdzīvoto un neapdzīvoto vietu nosaukumu savākšana un to analīze. Bakalaura darbā analizēti aptuveni 265 autores savāktie Apes pagasta vietvārdi, no kuriem 87 analizēti jau agrāk. Apkopotais materiāls ir salīdzināts ar Jāņa Endzelīna ,,Latvijas PSR vietvārdu’’ I–II (1956, 1961), J. Endzelīna ,,Latvijas vietu vārdu’’ I (1922), kā arī ,,Latvijas vietvārdu vārdnīcasˮ visām līdz šim pieejamām četrām daļām.
IDENTIFICATION AND QUANTIFICATION OF PHENOLIC COMPOUNDS FROM RED GRAPE POMACE
2018
The wine industry generates a great amount of waste every year, thus its valorization is of most importance. This study uses red, fermented pomace from Cabernet Sauvignon and Feteasca Neagra cultivars. The phenolic compounds were extracted using four different extractions and the content of total polyphenols was determined using a spectrophotometrical method. Several phenolic compounds were analyzed using an HPLC method. The Cabernet Sauvignon pomace had the highest content of total polyphenols and total phenolic compounds analyzed and of quercetin, rutin, ferulic acid and resveratrol, while the Feteasca Neagra pomace had the highest content of gallic acid, syringic acid, cinamic acid and (…
Semi-natural habitats in boreal Europe: a rise of a social-ecological research agenda
2021
The European continent contains substantial areas of semi-natural habitats, mostly grasslands, which are among the most endangered habitats in Europe. Their continued existence depends on some form of human activity, for either production or conservation purposes, or both. We examined the share of semi-natural grasslands within the general grassland areas in boreal Europe. We reviewed research literature across the region to compile evidence on semi-natural grasslands and other semi-natural habitats, such as wooded pastures, in respect to a range of topics such as ecology, land-use change, socioeconomics, and production. We also explored drivers of the research agenda and outlined future re…
Nonlinearities in plant RNA virus fitness
2012
Una de las mayores amenazas tanto para la salud humana y animal, como para la agronomía es la emergencia de nuevas enfermedades infecciosas, la mayoría de las cuales están causadas por los virus de RNA. La emergencia viral es un problema complejo que consista en la adquisición de la variación genética, por mutación o recombinación, dentro de la población viral en el huésped reservorio la cual podría facilitar la capacidad de infectar de manera eficiente nuevos huéspedes. Los virus de RNA presentan a una evolucionabilidad extraordinaria por sus grandes tamaños poblacionales, cortos tiempos de generación y altas tasas de mutación y recombinación. Comprender los mecanismos evolutivos que podrí…
Reconstructed Landscapes of Northern Youth : Reading the Autobiographies of Finnish Youth, 1945–1960
2021
This chapter explores how growing up environments and landscapes are remembered, described and depicted in autobiographies written by people who experienced the reconstruction era in northern Finland in their childhood and youth. The article is based on a collection of submissions to the essay called “Generations of Youth” in 2010 and archived in the Finnish Folklore Archives. The texts provide an interesting opportunity to investigate the cultural meanings attached to growing up environments, mindscapes, and places of childhood and youth in post-war Finland. The chapter combines approaches from the fields of history as well as humanistic geography. It addresses the question of how children…
