Development of a general model to estimate the instantaneous, daily, and daytime net radiation with satellite data on clear-sky days
2015
Net radiation is a key variable in computing evapotranspiration and is a driving force in many other physical and biological processes. Remote sensing techniques provide an unparalleled spatial and temporal coverage of land-surface attributes, and thus several studies have attempted to estimate net radiation by combining remote sensing observations with surface and atmospheric data. However, remote sensing provides instantaneous data, when many applications and models need information at other temporal scales. In this work, a new general methodology is proposed to estimate daily and daytime net radiation and to retrieve the diurnal cycle of net radiation. Four images were acquired on differ…

Targeted disruption of the peroxisomal thiolase B gene in mouse: a new model to study disorders related to peroxisomal lipid metabolism
2004
The peroxisomal beta-oxidation system consists of four steps catalysed by three enzymes: acyl-CoA oxidase, 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA hydratase/3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (multifunctional enzyme) and thiolase. In humans, thiolase activity is encoded by one gene, whereas in rodents, three enzymes encoded by three distinct genes (i.e. thiolase A, thiolase B and SCP2/thiolase) catalyse the thiolase activity. So far, acyl-CoA oxidase- and multifunctional enzyme-deficient patients have been identified and knock-out mice for these genes have been produced. Conversely, no isolated thiolase-deficient patient has been found, and no thiolase (A or B)-deficient mice have been generated. Hence, to better u…
Predisposición genética en el consumo de alcohol: el caso de la Alcohol Deshidrogenasa 1C
2007
Introduccion: El consumo de alcohol se presenta frecuentemente asociado a determinados delitos, siendo en unas ocasiones atenuante o eximente, y en otras una infraccion penal per se. Se han identificado numerosos factores geneticos y ambientales que predisponen al consumo de alcohol. Nuestro objetivo ha sido estudiar la prevalencia del polimorfismo Ile349Val en la alcohol deshidrogenasa 1C que da lugar a la isoforma gamma 2 (metabolizador lento), y estudiar su asociacion con el consumo de alcohol asi como reflexionar sobre la dimension de la implicacion de estas variantes geneticas en la Medicina Legal. Material y Metodos: Se ha genotipado el polimorfismo Ile 349Val en 869 individuos proced…
