Villafranca Sicula
2013
Nel 1447 l’archimandrita di San Salvatore in Lingua Fari di Messina concesse in enfiteusi perpetua ad Antonio Luna Peralta, conte di Caltabellotta, il feudo Troccoli (Triocala). Nel 1481 Carlo Luna Peralta, figlio di Antonio, donò il feudo Troccoli ai cognati Pietro e Giovanni Alliata Settimo. Nel 1493 Pietro donò Troccoli al fratello Antonio, marito di Eleonora Luna Peralta. Nel 1499 il viceré concesse ad Antonio la licenza di popolare Troccoli, edificare un castello, costruire un nuovo centro urbano e chiamarlo Villafranca.
Alcamo
2013
Nel 1340 la terra di Alcamo e il castello di Bonifato furono infeudati a Raimondo Peralta, che iniziò a edificare il castello di Alcamo. Gli succede il figlio Guglielmo, che morì nel 1349 e Alcamo fu occupata dai Chiaromonte. Federico IV riconquistò la terra e il castello con l’aiuto di Guarnerio Ventimiglia, che nel 1363 diventò capitano, castellano e signore di Alcamo.
Canicattì
2013
Nel 1408 il feudo di Canicattì apparteneva ai fratelli Salvatore e Antonio de Palmerio. Morto Salvatore, nel 1448 Antonio, privo di figli, vendette per 250 onze Canicattì al nipote Andrea Crescenzio, che nel 1468 ottenne la licenza di populare et habitare il feudo e di esercitarvi il mero e misto imperio.
Mezzojuso
2013
Nel 1281 il vescovo di Agrigento cede all’abate di San Giovanni degli Eremiti il casale Menzil Yusufu Nel Quattrocento è un feudo con bosco destinato a pascolo e caccia. Il popolamento ad opera dei greco-albanesi risale alla fine del XV secolo. Nel 1501 Didimo Vaquedano stipula alcuni capitoli con i giurati e i rappresentanti degli abitanti del casale dei Greci di Mezzojuso.
Sant'Angelo Muxaro
2013
Nel 1305 Francesco di Todi, beneficiario del locum e del fortilizio Muxaro, li cede a Giovanni Chiaromonte il Vecchio. Attorno al fortilizio si sviluppa un agglomerato urbano in cui si distinguono la terra di Muxaro e il casale di Sant’Angelo. Dopo la decapitazione di Andrea Chiaromonte la terra e il castello di Muxaro vengono assegnati a Guglielmo Raimondo Moncada. In seguito alla ribellione del Moncada, nel 1398 passano a Filippo de Marinis, insignito del titolo di barone. Nel 1507 Ferdinando II d’Aragona concede a Giosuè de Marinis la licenza di ripopolare il feudo.
Urban and Transit Planning. A Culmination of Selected Research Papers from IEREK Conferences on Urban Planning, Architecture and Green Urbanism, Ital…
2020
A volume of five parts, this book is a culmination of selected research papers from the second version of the international conferences on Urban Planning & Architectural Design for sustainable Development (UPADSD) and Urban Transit and Sustainable Networks (UTSN) of 2017 in Palermo and the first of the Resilient and Responsible Architecture and Urbanism Conference (RRAU) of 2018 in the Netherlands. This book, not only discusses environmental challenges of the world today, but also informs the reader of the new technologies, tools, and approaches used today for successful planning and development as well as new and upcoming ones. Chapters of this book provide in-depth debates on fields o…
Evaluation of air temperature estimated by ERA5-Land reanalysis using surface data in Pernambuco, Brazil.
2022
This study aimed to analyze the average air temperature data estimated by ERA5-Land reanalysis over 10 years (01/01/2011 to 12/31/2020), based on data from 12 automatic weather stations located in different cities in the state of Pernambuco, northeast of Brazil. For more careful evaluation, the average air temperature data were stratified by mesoregions of the state. ERA5-Land reanalysis data were validated using statistical indices that evaluated the accuracy. The average air temperature estimated by ERA5-Land reanalysis agree well with weather stations in almost the entire state of Pernambuco. The highest accuracy of the average air temperature estimated by ERA5-Land occurred in the city …
Varieties of algebras with pseudoinvolution: Codimensions, cocharacters and colengths
2022
Abstract Let A be a finitely generated superalgebra with pseudoinvolution ⁎ over an algebraically closed field F of characteristic zero. In this paper we develop a theory of polynomial identities for this kind of algebras . In particular, we shall consider three sequences that can be attached to Id ⁎ ( A ) , the T 2 ⁎ -ideal of identities of A: the sequence of ⁎-codimensions c n ⁎ ( A ) , the sequence of ⁎-cocharacter χ 〈 n 〉 ⁎ ( A ) and the ⁎-colength sequence l n ⁎ ( A ) . Our purpose is threefold. First we shall prove that the ⁎-codimension sequence is eventually non-decreasing, i.e., c n ⁎ ( A ) ≤ c n + 1 ⁎ ( A ) , for n large enough. Secondly, we study superalgebras with pseudoinvoluti…
Social Network Analysis and Qualitative Interviews for Assessing Geographic Characteristics of Tourism Business Networks.
2015
This study integrates quantitative social network analysis (SNA) and qualitative interviews for understanding tourism business links in isolated communities through analysing spatial characteristics. Two case studies are used, the Surselva-Gotthard region in the Swiss Alps and Longyearbyen in the Arctic archipelago of Svalbard, to test the spatial characteristics of physical proximity, isolation, and smallness for understanding tourism business links. In the larger Surselva-Gotthard region, we found a strong relationship between geographic separation of the three communities on compartmentalization of the collaboration network. A small set of businesses played a central role in steering col…
Current anthropogenic pressures on agro-ecological protected coastal wetlands
2015
Coastal wetlands are areas that suffer from great pressure. Much of it is due to the rapid development of the surrounding artificial landscapes, where socio-economic factors lead to alterations in the nearby environment, affecting the quality of natural and agricultural systems. This work analyses interconnections among landscapes under the hypothesis that urban-artificial impacts could be detected on soils and waters of an agro-ecological protected area, L'Albufera de Valencia Natural Park, located in the vicinity of the City of Valencia, Spain. The methodological framework developed addresses two types of anthropogenic pressure: (1) direct, due to artificialisation of soil covers that cau…
