Megabenthos Underwater Video (MUV): a new device to evaluate species distribution in hard-to-reach marine areas
2021
A device, called Megabenthos Underwater Video (MUV), was designed and built for the counting and the size estimate of benthic organisms in hard-to-reach areas. Since 2014 Cassiopea andromeda, an invasive alien jellyfish in the Mediterranean Sea with benthic behavior, colonized a recreational harbor (Cala) of Palermo with a stable population. Studying the species distribution in this area with classical methods (such as visual census, ROV, etc.) was not applicable due to the large presence of obstacles (ropes, anchor cables, boats) and to dive difficulties in these types of area. The MUV was tested from 2017 to 2018 for the study of the spatial-temporal distribution of C. andromeda in the Ca…
Andrómeda en el conjunto de las tragedias de Eurípides
2008
Jose.V.Banuls@uv.es Carmen.Morenilla@uv.es Andrómeda de Eurípides, de la que se conservan algunos fragmentos significativos y en la que se han visto elementos dramatúrgicos innovadores, pertenece a un conjunto de tragedias con rasgos comunes, que a su vez ayudan a la comprensión de esta tragedia fragmentaria. La estudiamos en comparación con Helena, que se representó junto con ella, y Antígona, también conservada en estado muy fragmentario. Euripides‚ Andromeda –of which only few relevant fragments survive, and which shows innovative theatrical elements– belongs to a group of tragedies which share common features, and help to the understanding of the this fragmentary tragedy. Here, we seek …

Can QCD Axion Stars explain Subaru HSC microlensing?
2021
A non-negligible fraction of the QCD axion dark matter may form gravitationally bound Bose Einstein condensates, which are commonly known as axion stars or axion clumps. Such astrophysical objects have been recently proposed as the cause for the single candidate event reported by Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) microlensing search in the Andromeda galaxy. Depending on the breaking scale of the Peccei-Quinn symmetry and the details of the dark matter scenario, QCD axion clumps may form via gravitational condensation during radiation domination, in the dense core of axion miniclusters, or within axion minihalos around primordial black holes. We analyze all these scenarios and conclude that the…

Biochemical characterization of cassiopea andromeda (Forsskål, 1775), another red sea jellyfish in the western mediterranean sea
2021
Increasing frequency of native jellyfish proliferations and massive appearance of non-indigenous jellyfish species recently concur to impact Mediterranean coastal ecosystems and human activities at sea. Nonetheless, jellyfish biomass may represent an exploitable novel resource to coastal communities, with reference to its potential use in the pharmaceutical, nutritional, and nutraceutical Blue Growth sectors. The zooxanthellate jellyfish Cassiopea andromeda, Forsskål, 1775 (Cnidaria, Rhizostomeae) entered the Levant Sea through the Suez Canal and spread towards the Western Mediterranean to reach Malta, Tunisia, and recently also the Italian coasts. Here we report on the biochemical characte…
Perseo en la Comedia tardobarroca: Ignacio Ferrera y Pasqual
2015
Entre los géneros que recrearon el mito de Perseo en la literatura española sobresale la comedia barroca. Lope y Calderón compusieron dos conocidas obras sobre este asunto mitológico, que llegaría a su máxima expresión dramática con el auto sacramental Perseo y Andrómeda del propio Calderón. Sin embargo, ya casi mediado el siglo xviii, es decir, en el tardobarroco, encontramos una curiosa obra debida a un cierto Ignacio Ferrera y Pasqual, que constituye una de las versiones más sui generis de la historia de Perseo. Presentamos en este artículo un análisis de esta sorprendente pieza. Perseus in the late baroque comedy: Ignacio Ferrera y PasqualAbstract: Among the genres that recreated the m…
