Border Maps. (Counter-)cartographies of the Mediterranean
2020
Negli ultimi decenni il Mediterraneo è stato progressivamente tra- sformato in una frontiera liquida, uno spazio in cui le tecnologie di governo della mobilità si imprimono violentemente sui corpi di coloro i quali cercano di raggiungere l’Europa. Nonostante la rap- presentazione di flussi ed eventi migratori rappresenti una sfida per la cartografia e la sua geometria statica di confine, numerosi sono i tentativi recenti di utilizzo del linguaggio cartografico per rappre- sentare quel che accade alle frontiere meridionali d’Europa, specie nell’ambito della cartografia critica e radicale. Questo intervento si propone di esplorare la relazione fra eventi migratori e pratiche di (counter-)mapp…
Modélisation de l’évolution d’un finage, du rural au périurbain (Montagne bourguignonne)
2007
La transformation accélérée des rapports entre les sociétés villageoises et leur territoire a des conséquences de nature à la fois organisationnelle, biophysique et agronomique: les opérations d'aménagement rural y trouvent leur justification. Une démarche de diagnostic de territoire a été élaborée et mise en oeuvre à l'occasion de ces opérations. Un itinéraire méthodologique permet de construire un «modèle morpho-historique» qui rend des interrelations entre milieu physique et histoire d'un lieu, à travers un système de relations territorialisé. Le modèle «MH» permet, dans le cadre de procédures d'aménagement, de repérer des portions de territoire «sensibles».
"¿Non sapete que los siervos han de ser muy puntuales?": La lengua italiana en una mojiganga española del Siglo de Oro
2013
Este trabajo pretende estudiar el papel de la lengua italiana en la mojiganga "Los niños de la rollona y lo que pasa en las calles". Primero, se fija su fecha de composición y su autoría, ya que hasta hoy se ha atribuido la pieza a un Simón Aguado homónimo del verdadero autor, fechando por tanto erróneamente la mojiganga. En segundo lugar, se rastrean los orígenes, las funciones y los objetivos del italiano propuesto por el dramaturgo desde el punto de vista fonético, morfológico, léxico y sintáctico para ver hasta qué punto Aguado traduce, imita, reelabora o parodia este idioma.

La dictadura del cuerpo: el cuerpo como objeto de propaganda
2014
ABSTRACT Body of athletes has been settled as a modern icon in the same movement that has settled the sport man into hero. But we can find the strategies to transform it into a deity or a product of marketing in such an old film as Olympia (1938), audiovisual discourse about Olympic Games of Berlin. It is also considered as one of the main examples of propaganda in modern cinema. We suggest a comparative analysis that confronts Olympia with First (2012), last official olimpic film distributed, where we can discover the propagandistic possibilities and the consequences of this visual strategies. Analysis proposes to study if the common places and strategies are not only form coincidences bet…
Familiaridad e Interés en los Procesos de la Ciencia de los Estudiantes de Educación Secundaria
2016
Abstract Introduction. Skills for science processes are a part of scientific literacy and also are a very important component of science teaching. There are, nevertheless, not enough studies in Iberoamerica about these skills in secondary education. Objective. This is an exploratory study that aims to determine the familiarity and interest degrees of secondary education students on these skills. Materials and methods. A questionnaire was given to 144 Spanish secondary students, from five different education levels. In that questionnaire, their familiarity and interest degrees on the skills of the basic and integrated sciences are demanded. Results. The familiarity degree with the sciences p…
Assessing and mapping multi-hazard risk susceptibility using a machine learning technique
2020
AbstractThe aim of the current study was to suggest a multi-hazard probability assessment in Fars Province, Shiraz City, and its four strategic watersheds. At first, we construct maps depicting the most effective factors on floods (12 factors), forest fires (10 factors), and landslides (10 factors), and used the Boruta algorithm to prioritize the impact of each respective factor on the occurrence of each hazard. Subsequently, flood, landslides, and forest fire susceptibility maps prepared using a Random Forest (RF) model in the R statistical software. Results indicate that 42.83% of the study area are not susceptible to any hazards, while 2.67% of the area is at risk of all three hazards. T…
Exploring the effect of absence selection on landslide susceptibility models: A case study in Sicily, Italy
2016
Abstract A statistical approach was employed to model the spatial distribution of rainfall-triggered landslides in two areas in Sicily (Italy) that occurred during the winter of 2004–2005. The investigated areas are located within the Belice River basin and extend for 38.5 and 10.3 km 2 , respectively. A landslide inventory was established for both areas using two Google Earth images taken on October 25th 2004 and on March 18th 2005, to map slope failures activated or reactivated during this interval. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) were used to prepare 5 m grids of the dependent variables (absence/presence of landslide) and independent variables (lithology and 13 DEM-derivatives). Mul…
Prediction of debris-avalanches and -flows triggered by a tropical storm by using a stochastic approach: An application to the events occurred in Moc…
2019
Abstract Landslides are among the most dangerous natural processes. Debris avalanches and debris flows in particular have often caused casualties and severe damage to infrastructures in a wide range of environments. The assessment of susceptibility to these phenomena may help policy makers in mitigating the associated risk and thus it has attracted special attention in the last decades. In this experiment, we assessed susceptibility to debris-avalanche and -flow landslides by using a stochastic approach. Two different modeling techniques were employed: i) Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines (MARS) and ii) Logistic Regression (LR). Both MARS and LR allow for calculating the probability …
Assessment of susceptibility to earth-flow landslide using logistic regression and multivariate adaptive regression splines: A case of the Belice Riv…
2015
Abstract In this paper, terrain susceptibility to earth-flow occurrence was evaluated by using geographic information systems (GIS) and two statistical methods: Logistic regression (LR) and multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS). LR has been already demonstrated to provide reliable predictions of earth-flow occurrence, whereas MARS, as far as we know, has never been used to generate earth-flow susceptibility models. The experiment was carried out in a basin of western Sicily (Italy), which extends for 51 km 2 and is severely affected by earth-flows. In total, we mapped 1376 earth-flows, covering an area of 4.59 km 2 . To explore the effect of pre-failure topography on earth-flow sp…
