Statistical downscaling and attribution of air temperature change patterns in the Valencia region (1948–2011)

2015

This study is based on the statistical downscaling and spatial interpolation of high-resolution temperatures (90 m) over the 1948–2011 period performed for the Valencia Region (east Iberian Peninsula) after considering local topographical factors in the fine-scale distribution of temperatures. The objective was to detect the areas that were potentially more vulnerable to air temperature change. This allowed the detection of local climate change patterns, which were analyzed and found to be consistent in spatial and temporal terms. These patterns indicate a more marked warming tendency in higher parts of reliefs and their slopes. However, this tendency is less pronounced in bottoms of valley…

Moving from North to North: how are the students’ university flows?

2021

AbstractStudent mobility has been much commented upon and much studied. Student mobility has social, economic, and political consequences. This form of mobility is relevant, in Italy, in terms of south-north flows, while the mobility of northern students toward the South and Centre of Italy is negligible. To the best of our knowledge, a proper focus on the dynamics among northern regions has not yet been carried out. This study focuses on the interregional mobility of northern first-year students. To this end, we use a longitudinal dataset with students’ individual histories from 2008 to 2017, obtained from the cohort-based datasets collected using the Italian Ministry of University’s admin…

Impacts of ambient temperature and clutch size on incubation behaviour onset in a female-only incubator songbird

2021

Ambient temperature is assumed to be the major cue used by passerines to synchronize their laying and hatching dates to the expected peak of prey availability. While laying eggs, females are still able to fine-tune their hatching date following increasing or decreasing patterns of ambient temperature, mostly via changes in incubation onse t. The onset of incubation behaviour in relation to the laying sequence could have later conse- quences for the duration of the incubation period and the extent of hatching asynchrony. Clutch size is also known to affect incubation patterns and might therefore condition potential responses to changing temperatures. In this study we assessed the association…

Usage of BODE index to estimate the results of rehabilitation of patients with chronic obstructive lung disease

2008

Abstract: BODE index is the prognostic indicator in chronic obstructive lung disease, in which beyond bronchial obstruction the body mass index, dyspnea and competence exercise are taken into consideration. The indicator consists of few elements: B – BMI, O – obturation, D – dyspnea, E – exercise, taking into consideration various constitutional aspects of disease. The purpose of the paper was usage of BODE index in estimation of results of rehabilitation of patients with Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease. 60 in- hospital patients with chronic obstructive lung disease were examined, in Specialized Hospital MSWiA (Ministry of Interior and Administration) in Glucholazy. The pa-tients, who were…

Is our brain hardwired to produce God, or is our brain hardwired to perceive God? A systematic review on the role of the brain in mediating religious…

2009

To figure out whether the main empirical question "Is our brain hardwired to believe in and produce God, or is our brain hardwired to perceive and experience God?" is answered, this paper presents systematic critical review of the positions, arguments and controversies of each side of the neuroscientific–theological debate and puts forward an integral view where the human is seen as a psycho-somatic entity consisting of the multiple levels and dimensions of human existence (physical, biological, psychological, and spiritual reality), allowing consciousness/ mind/spirit and brain/body/matter to be seen as different sides of the same phenomenon, neither reducible to each other. The emergence …
