Risk of threats in the Opolskie Voivodeship and the awareness of residents
2019
Województwo opolskie zostało dotknięte powodzią nazywaną również ,,powodzią tysiąclecia” w 1997 r., lecz wielu mieszkańców pamięta te dotkliwe zdarzenia. Z pewnością od tego czasu wyciągnięto wiele wniosków i dokonano zmian w procedurach, niemniej jednak nawet najlepsza organizacja wymaga współpracy ludności cywilnej w momencie wystąpienia zagrożenia. Bez wiedzy mieszkańców na temat sposobów reagowania na poszczególne zagrożenia, nie można mówić o dobrym przygotowaniu. Stąd też niniejszy artykuł jest próbą przedstawienia zagrożeń mogących pojawić się na terenie województwa opolskiego oraz jedynie wskazania odpowiedzialnych pod- miotów wiodących, jak np. Wojewoda Opolski w fazie zapobiegania…
Beyond early: Decision support for improved typhoon warning systems
2015
International audience; Warnings can help prevent damage and harm if they are issued timely and provide information that help responders and population to adequately prepare for the disaster to come. Today, there are many indicator and sensor systems that are designed to reduce disaster risks, or issue early warnings. In this paper we analyze the different systems in the light of the initial decisions that need to be made in the response to sudden onset disasters. We outline challenges of current practices and methods, and provide an agenda for future research.To illustrate our approach, we present a case study of Typhoon Haiyan. Although meteorological services had issued warnings; relief …
Retail banking in the aftermath of the financial crisis
2018
This thesis considers the effects of the global financial crisis that started in 2008 on the retail banking environment and on banks’ behavior during and in the aftermath of the crisis. The thesis consists of an introductory chapter and three empirical articles that use unique datasets on Finnish cooperative banks. The introductory chapter provides background and an overview of the thesis and considers the effects of the crisis on retail banking from an overall perspective. The empirical articles investigate the roles of a competitive environment, a low interest rate environment, and relationship banking during the crisis and in the post-crisis period. The first article looks at whether the…
Una más de la familia. Au pairs atrapadas entre el capital humano y la economía moral
2018
In contemporary societies we are witnessing an expansion of the messages of human capital. These messages have as their central dimension idea of the self-entrepreneur, which implies a deepening in the logic of activation, while blurring the wage relations. In this scenario, young people with university degrees are becoming a favourite target in the offensive of human capital. The penetration of these human capital messages can be seen in the discourses of young university students who have been forced to leave the country during the crisis. In the present text we approach the discourses of young women who came out as au pairs. The characteristics of this figure place it in a space halfway …
Testing a methodology to improve organizational learning about crisis communication
2011
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to introduce a measurement system with performance indicators to improve organizational learning about crisis communication by public organizations. The tool can be used to conduct a preparedness audit or to evaluate communication performance in a real situation or in an emergency exercise. Evaluation is part of the strategic planning and development of crisis communication. The construction of the instrument and its theoretical underpinnings are first explained, after which the series of empirical tests that were implemented to scrutinize the clarity and appropriateness of the indicators as well as the usability of the instrument are presented. Design…
Seven years of youth transition to work before and during the economic crisis in France
2017
International audience; The transition from school-to-work is a process structured by demand for labour, employer behaviour, public policy measures and structural employment changes. However youths experience also other temporalities, that are context related, and that take place in a given country at the beginning of their working careers. In general youths entering the labour market are overexposed to economic fluctuations (Fondeur and Minni, 2004). The aim of this paper is to identify the consequences of the 2008 financial crisis in France, by comparing the trajectories of two youth cohorts over seven years. We use labour market segmentation theory developed by Doeringer and Piore (1971)…
Cadmium Metal–Organic Frameworks Based on Ditopic Triazamacrocyclic Linkers: Unusual Structural Features and Selective CO 2 Capture
2017
International audience; Two three-dimensional cadmium metal organic frameworks with general formula [Cd-2(L-1)(H2O)(3)](NO3)(0.7)(HCOO)(0.2)Br-0.1 (Cd2L1, L-1 = 1,4,7-tris(4-carboxybenzy1)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane) and Cd(HL2)(H2O)(2) (CdL2, L-2 = 1,4,7-tris(3-(4-benzoate)prop-2-yn-1-yl)-1,4,7-triazacydononane) based on 1,4,7-triazacyclononane N-functionalized by different arylcarboxylic acids were prepared under solvothermal conditions and characterized by single crystal X-ray analysis and porosity measurements. The crystal structure of Cd2L1 reveals a cationic net with a bcs topology,. and nodes are constituted by dinuclear cadmium complexes, in which each cadmium atom adopts a hexacoordin…
Frontiera geografica e frontiere mentali nella «Saga di Eirik il Rosso»
2022
La «Saga di Eirik il Rosso» («Eiríks saga rauða») appartiene al gruppo delle “Family Sagas” ("Íslendinga sögur") dell’antica letteratura islandese. Essa si configura come un testo di straordinario interesse storico e antropologico perché contiene una delle più antiche narrazioni della penetrazione dei Vichinghi, prima in Groenlandia e poi nel Nuovo Continente (la cosiddetta Vinlandia), circa 500 anni prima della “scoperta” dell’America da parte di Cristoforo Colombo. Ma è anche un testo ricco di suggestioni che afferiscono alle dimensioni del magico, del meraviglioso, dell’immaginario, e insieme un’opera nella quale la “frontiera” geografica si fonde e si confonde – nella redazione scritta …

Creixement cristal·lí mitjançant la tècnica MOCVD i caracterització morfològica i estructural dels òxids de cadmi i zinc
2019
L'òxid de cadmi (CdO) i l'òxid de zinc (ZnO) han estat postulats com dos materials amb gran potencialitat en un ampli ventall d'aplicacions tecnològiques. Pel que fa a les seues propietats físiques, ambdós presenten un caràcter semiconductor de tipus “n”, sense dopatge intencionat. A més, el seu bandgap directe a 2.2 i 3.3 eV, respectivament, asseguren un bon grau de transparència òptica en la regió infraroja i visible de l'espectre electromagnètic. La projecció d'aquests compostos en camps com la plasmònica o les tecnologies basades en transicions intersubbanda fa convenient el control per a l'obtenció de capes molt primes. Malgrat això, gairebé tots els treballs publicats reporten capes p…
