Climat et viticulture au Vietnam : évaluation et perspectives

2009

International audience; Parmi les activités humaines, la culture de la vigne pour la production de vin est fortement dépendante des conditions climatiques. Le potentiel d'une zone viticole est sous l'étroite influence du climat, en particulier des conditions radiatives, thermiques et hydriques, de telle sorte que la plupart des vignobles à caractère œnologique sont localisés aux latitudes moyennes. Pourtant, l'expansion de la viti-viniculture aux basses latitudes s'est accélérée ces dernières années. Ici, les conditions climatiques et la faible variation de longueur des jours permettent dans la plupart des cas deux à trois récoltes par an, alors qu'une seule n'est envisageable dans les régi…

Project DyAdd: Non-linguistic Theories of Dyslexia Predict Intelligence

2020

Two themes have puzzled the research on developmental and learning disorders for decades. First, some of the risk and protective factors behind developmental challenges are suggested to be shared and some are suggested to be specific for a given condition. Second, language-based learning difficulties like dyslexia are suggested to result from or correlate with non-linguistic aspects of information processing as well. In the current study, we investigated how adults with developmental dyslexia or ADHD as well as healthy controls cluster across various dimensions designed to tap the prominent non-linguistic theories of dyslexia. Participants were 18–55-year-old adults with dyslexia (n = 36), …

Short-period volcanic gas precursors to phreatic eruptions: Insights from Poás Volcano, Costa Rica

2016

Texto completo del documento Volcanic eruptions involving interaction with water are amongst the most violent and unpredictable geologic phenomena on Earth. Phreatic eruptions are exceptionally difficult to forecast by traditional geophysical techniques. Here we report on short-term precursory variations in gas emissions related to phreatic blasts at Poás volcano, Costa Rica, as measured with an in situ multiple gas analyzer that was deployed at the edge of the erupting lake. Gas emitted from this hyper-acid crater lake approaches magmatic values of SO2/CO21–6 days prior to eruption. The SO2flux derived from magmatic degassing through the lake is measureable by differential optical absorpti…

The study of climate change in Primary Education: an exploration from Social Science textbooks in the Valencian Community

2020

El cambio climático constituye uno de los principales desafíos socio-ambientales del actual siglo XXI. El objetivo de esta investigación es analizar los contenidos sobre el cambio climático que proponen los manuales escolares de Educación Primaria de Ciencias Sociales (3er ciclo) en la Comunidad Valenciana (España) atendiendo a: 1) la explicación del fenómeno (causas y consecuencias); y 2) la descripción de los principales gases de efecto invernadero. Los resultados indican que actualmente estos recursos proyectan una imagen excesivamente catastrófica sobre el cambio climático, especialmente por las consecuencias que se aluden (incremento de los fenómenos extremos atmosféricos) y citando co…

Climatic change and thermal comfort. Effects on the tourism industry in the region of Valencia

2020

El cambio climático comienza a manifestar efectos en las actividades económicas de la Comunidad Valenciana. El turismo es una parte fundamental de su economía, puesto que representa el 15% de su PIB regional. La modalidad de “sol y playa” es la principal actividad turística en el territorio valenciano, de ahí la importancia del análisis de las alteraciones que están experimentando los elementos climáticos debido a su efecto en el recurso turístico y en las preferencias de la demanda. La pérdida del “confort climático”, el aumento de las noches “tropicales” (Tª > 20ºC), el incremento de la temperatura del agua de mar Mediterráneo y la adaptación a los extremos atmosféricos (olas de calor, ll…

Comparing indoor performances of a building equipped with four different roof configurations in 65 Italian sites

2020

Abstract—Despite the increasing concern of institutions and technical organizations toward the improvement of the building energy (and, therefore, environmental) efficiency, the main goal of technicians should be also devoted toward the levels of internal thermal comfort that buildings are able to realize. As that, the relationships between energy performances and comfort conditions provided by the enclosures are of paramount importance in guiding designers in their work. In this paper, the influence of diverse roof construction typologies on energy and indoor performance of buildings has been investigated, in different Italian sites during heating and cooling seasons. In addition, it must …

The impact of foreign trade on the Netherlands' real CO2 emissions

2019

Aim: CO2 emissions and the related climate change are a global problem, where the direct impact of actions of individual countries depends on their total share in CO2 emissions. In order to assess the potential for policy measures, the openness of an economy, and the related import and export and their impacts on emissions should be considered. The aim of this paper is the attempt to show the real CO2 emissions of the Netherlands as well as the impact of its trade on CO2 emissions in other countries in the world and in the EU in 2015.Design / Research methods: This study was conducted on the group of countries that are the major emitters of CO2 in the world including most of the EU members.…

Are Future School Teachers Qualified to Teach Flood Risk? An Approach from the Geography Discipline in the Context of Climate Change

2021

The aims of this research, based on a case study (trainee teachers of Primary degree and Secondary Education–MAES of the University of Valencia, Spain), are to analyse the students’ memories and perceptions of their training about floods
