A possible tsunami deposit around the Jurassic–Cretaceous boundary in the Boulonnais area (northern France)
2005
Abstract An unusual succession of facies locally deposited around the Jurassic–Cretaceous boundary in the Boulonnais (northern France) is attributed to a tsunami event by comparison with recent tsunami deposits. This sedimentary succession includes basal erosion with reworked lithified blocks, soft-sediment deformations, an erosional conglomerate overlain by wood fragments and clays containing continental and marine fossils in one setting and conglomerate with mixed fauna in an other setting. The tsunami probably affected the coast of the Boulonnais area of the London–Brabant Massif. The origin of the event is unknown. It was most probably triggered by an earthquake, but other origins such …
Alternative energy scenarios for small islands: A case study from Salina Island (Aeolian Islands, Southern Italy)
2012
Abstract The Aeolian archipelago is made up of seven main islands situated in the Tyrrhenian sea (Sicily Italy). They represent a suitable scenario for the development of a sustainable energy production system, that could easily be reproduced on other Mediterranean Islands. The fact that these islands depend on the mainland for energy supplies and the high cost of bringing fuel in tanker boats are factors that should strongly encourage the use of renewable energy source technologies. Taking into account the European Commission guidelines, this paper sets out to evaluate potential energy production using photovoltaic and small scale wind power, in order to verify their contribution to overal…
Análisis clínico y valoración de las alteraciones fonéticas, musculares y deglución atípica en pacientes infantiles
2017
El avance de la odontología y su vinculación con otras disciplinas, como es el caso de la logopedia, ha originado un área de investigación en la infancia que tiene como resultado la prevención de patologías y el adecuado desarrollo del niño/a. Las ciencias odontológicas se encargan del estudio, diagnóstico, tratamiento y prevención de las enfermedades del aparato estomatognático. La logopedia es una ciencia que se dedica al estudio de la comunicación. Como disciplina se ocupa de la prevención, evaluación e intervención de los trastornos de la voz, el habla, el lenguaje, la audición y la deglución. REVISIÓN DE LA LITERATURA Desde mediados del siglo XX numerosos autores estudiaron la importan…
Effetti del portinnesto sulla produttività e sulla qualità dell'anguria.
2010
The research aims to investigate the effects of different rootstocks on productive and qualitative aspects of two watermelon cultivars: Dumara, that produces big fruits and Minirossa that produces smaller fruits. For each cultivar, a randomized complete-block design was used with 3 replications to compare the following six grafting combinations: grafted plants into five rootstocks (Elsi, RS 841, Shintosa, Lagenaria corta, Anguria selvatica) and ungrafted plants. The highest yield of both cultivars was obtained with RS 841 while the lowest was observed with not grafted plants and grafted on elsi. However, using Elsi as rootstock, the plants gave fruits of greatest size. the best quality para…

Concreções calcárias da formação Santana, bacia do Araripe: uma proposta de classificação.
2007
18 pages; The calcareous concretions of the Santana Formation have been known since 1800 thanks to the work of João da Silva Feijó (1800). Their study was promoted internationally by the report of von Spix and von Martius (1823-1831), and their richness in fossil fishes led Silva Santos to name them “ichthyoliths” in 1950. Here we propose a classification for the various types of calcareous concretions that occurred in the Santana Formation (Late Cretaceous, Araripe Basin). We consider their geographic distribution and we propose a terminological uniformization for the descriptions of that material. This will serve future statistical, geographical, geochemical and taphonomical studies that,…
Preliminary study on the unusual properties in the habitat of Ranunculetum baudotii in Central Europe
2011
Abstract The study examines the patches of the saltwater association Ranunculetum baudotii in a new, atypical site; i.e., located more than 400 km away from the Baltic coastal line. They were found in a karst spring, and were the first locality of the community identified in Poland. The water and sediments within the patches were analyzed chemically in the laboratory, but, conductivity, water temperature and O2 content were measured in the field. The spring was determined to be a relatively stable aquatic habitat, with a typical chemical composition of subterranean water (a prevalence of hydro-carbonate, calcium and magnesium ions), and rich, e.g., in nitrogen and phosphorus, and disturbed …
Dal liceo all’università: una ricerca-intervento per la costruzione del progetto di vita professionale degli studenti
2019
Si è conclusa nel mese di maggio del 2019 la prima parte di una ricerca-intervento ispirata alla teoria del pensiero narrativo, ai principi dell’educational counseling e della didattica orientativa. Durante l’anno scolastico 2018-2019, 93 studenti (50 femmine e 43 maschi) del quarto anno di cinque licei di Palermo hanno partecipato a un’iniziativa sperimentale in cui scuola e università hanno collaborato con un duplice scopo: ridurre negli studenti il gap rilevato tra le conoscenze in uscita dal liceo e quelle richieste all’inizio dei corsi universitari e potenziare in loro la capacità di formulare il proprio progetto di vita professionale. È stata sperimentata l’azione congiunta di tre tip…
El papel de la reputación del Consejero Delegado en la reputación de la empresa española
2010
La reputación corporativa se conceptúa como la estimación global de las percepciones que tienen de la empresa sus principales stakeholders. La literatura ha visto en la reputación corporativa uno de los activos intangibles más valioso desde el punto de vista de la creación y sostenimiento de ventajas competitivas, por lo que diversos estudios han tratado de identificiar los antecedentes de la reputación de la empresa. Uno de estos antecedentes destacado son sus directivos, y entre ellos los Consejeros Delegados. En España, los trabajos sobre los antecedentes de la reputación corporativa son muy escasos, e inexistentes los que han abordado el estudio de la influencia de la reputación del Con…
Dieta del delfín de Risso (Grampus griseus) en el Mediterráneo occidental
2006
DIETA DEL DELFÍN DE RISSO (GRAMPUS GRISEUS) EN EL MEDITERRÁNEO OCCIDENTAL. – Se ha analizado el contenido gastrointestinal de quince ejemplares de Grampus griseus varados en el Mediterráneo occidental entre 40º25’N 00º32’W y 37º35’N 00º45’E durante el período 1987 a 2003. Los resultados indican una dieta teutófaga, basada principalmente en cefalópodos oceánicos destacando los octópodos pelágicos, especialmente Argonauta argo, como la presa más abundante (media = 41,28%; SD±34,32). Algunas especies pertenecientes a las familias mmastrephidae, Histioteuthidae y Onychoteuthidae son también componentes frecuentes de la misma. La distribución batimétrica de los cefalópodos indica que el área de …
