Chimpanzees surviving in a fragmented high‐altitude forest landscape of the Congolese Albertine Rift
2021
This paper documents a community of eastern chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii Giglioli, 1872) inhabiting three relict forest fragments situated on the Lake Albert escarpment, down the Ituri highlands, of eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). The area explored had a combined forested surface of ±18.15 km2 in 2017, shrinking by 1.2% per year between 2010 and 2015. Between 2015 and 2017, we found 160 chimpanzee nests along 37.6 km of pilot walks, some up to 2,000 m altitude. Another 123 nests logged along 6.7 km transects led to an estimate of chimpanzee density of 4.62 weaned individuals per square kilometer of forest habitat. Camera‐trap images and direct observations rev…
La viabilidad de las pensiones en una economía global en crisis
2015
La tesis pretende estudiar la situación de los sistemas de pensiones desde un punto de vista global y comparativo. Para ello hace un estudio histórico, social, económico y sobre todo jurídico de los principales países europeos y de latinoamericanos. Se analiza asimismo el papel de determinadas entidades en materia de pensiones como el FMI, el Banco Mundial o la Troika, el funcionamiento del mercado laboral en distintos países y el papel de las pensiones complementarias en sus distintos ámbitos.

Qanāts and historical irrigated landscapes in Palermo’s suburban area (Sicily)
2020
La città di Palermo e la sua valle circostante sono un importante paesaggio storico irriguo, caratterizzato da strutture idrauliche sotterranee e da una lunga tradizione di sistemi di irrigazione ereditati dalla presenza islamica in Sicilia nel medioevo (IX-XI secolo). La “rivo- luzione verde” islamica ha radicalmente innovato i sistemi di irrigazione siciliani e questo portò all’introduzione e alla diffusione di nuove specie coltivate. Nell’area suburbana di Pa- lermo sono stati indagati 63 infrastrutture idrauliche e tunnel di scolo, classificati in 4 ca- tegorie: 1) qanāts; 2) qanāts ciechi; 3) pozzi collegati; 4) gallerie di scolo emergenti. Que- ste strutture, nonostante alcuni dubbi c…
Vegetation series as a marker of interactions between rural settlements and landscape: new insights from the archaeological record in Western Sicily
2020
[EN] Plant communities are complex and dynamic elements of the landscape, intertwined with both natural factors and human activities. Vegetation series reflect the environmental characteristics of the landscape, but also the anthropic impact, one of the exogenous forces that most profoundly affects the landscape formation process. This paper aims to investigate the interactions between long-term human settlement catchment areas and vegetation series. The case study area of the Sicani Mountains (Central-Western Sicily) proved to be an ideal place to perform GIS-based spatial analysis in order to compare a data set of rural archaeological sites and land units created through the mapping of ve…
A multifaceted field sampling approach for the management of extremely narrow endemic vascular plant species
2022
Extremely narrow endemic plant species (ENEs) are generally connected with micro- refugia characterized by particular environmental conditions. In-depth knowledge of the ecological requirements of ENEs is fundamental to plan appropriate conservation measures. Using cross-cutting technology, this paper gives a multifaceted approach to collect on-site data on the ecology of ENEs, defines the protocols for a correct sampling design and describes the type of equipment, the time and expenditure needed. Our sampling approach is based on two orthogonal transects, long enough to extrapolate the whole ecological gradient across the area of occupancy of the target species. Microclimatic data are reco…
Faire face ou faire avec. Situations de vulnérabilité et situations de handicap
2020
Nous sommes tous victime lorsqu’un aléa survient au cours d’un déplacement (grève, panne, situation climatique exceptionnelle, etc.), par définition imprévisible. Mais il peut rendre vulnérables les personnes en situation de handicap cognitif et/ou mental plus particulièrement. La distinction sémantique entre situation de handicap et situation de vulnérabilité doit ici garder tout son sens. Et la tendance à employer indifféremment l’une et l’autre notion en sciences humaines et sociales, mérite d’être dénoncée. Différencier l’une et l’autre notion, c’est admettre et reconnaître les tactiques résilientes que les personnes en situation de handicap mettent en œuvre quotidiennement pour compens…
Assessing the profitability of investment projects using ordered fuzzy numbers
2019
Wstęp: U podstaw rozważań leży stwierdzenie, że większość podejść do budżetowania kapitałowego ma charakter deterministyczny. W rzeczywistości problemowi budżetowania towarzyszy niepewność i ryzyko związane z przetwarzaniem nieprecyzyjnych danych. Uwzględnienie tej niepewności nie tylko pomaga lepiej zmierzyć efektywność projektów inwestycyjnych, ale także rozszerzyć zastosowanie metod budżetowania kapitałowego w warunkach rzeczywistych lub niepewnych. Głównym celem artykułu jest opracowanie nowatorskiego podejścia do oceny opłacalności projektu inwestycyjnego w warunkach niepewności. Metody: Prezentujemy nowatorskie podejście uwzględniające niepewność w ocenie opłacalności projektów inwest…
A Feasibility Study for the Transition to Electric Mobility in the Island of Favignana
2021
The energy transition and climate neutrality are a short time scenario as climate concerns are rising fast. Small islands are natural microgrids in which the energy transition is subjected to economic and regulatory constraints and highly challenged by technical issues. As a first step, the Mediterranean island of Favignana has been considered in this study, to assess how electric mobility could impact the power system. According to the plans from the local decision makers, the island is moving towards a full public electric mobility in the near term, also due to the participation in the BloRin project. For this reason, a feasibility study about the technical and environmental impact of ele…
Il legame tra innovazione strategica, capitale intellettuale e tecnologie intelligenti
2020
Il successo delle aziende è strettamente legato alla loro capacità di innovare, cioè di proporre soluzioni nuove o migliorative rispetto alle preesistenti. L’innovazione costituisce un elemento imprescindibile per il conseguimento di risultati competitivi soddisfacenti soprattutto nei moderni contesti economici, dove la tecnologia si evolve rapidamente e cambia le “condizioni di gioco”, facendo diventare obsoleti prodotti e conoscenze pregresse, mutando i confini dei mercati e cambiando i rapporti di potere tra attori economici (ad esempio, il cliente sempre più informato e connesso con il mondo grazie ad internet acquista più potere rispetto ai fornitori di beni e servizi). In Italia, così…
