Gravity-derived Moho map for Latvia

2020

A precise understanding of crustal structure is essential to the fields of geodynamics, seismology and certain branches of geophysics. A boundary between the crust and the mantle is known as the MohoroviÄiÄ discontinuity, simply referred to as the âMohoâ. Moho geometry and depth have been extensively studied in Europe, but there are still regions with little information about it. One such area is the northern Baltics, Latvia in particular. So far, only one seismic refraction profile, spanning from Sovetsk (Kaliningrad) to Kohtla-Järve (Estonia), has been used to study the deep structure of the Earth in Latvia. We propose gravity inversion (ParkerâOldenburg algorithm) to gain more insight i…

Margarita Nelken. El discurso parlamentario femenino de la II República

2023

Margarita Nelken, along with Clara Campoamor and Victoria Kent, was the protagonist in some parliamentary debates during the first legislature of the Second Republic. As this is the first study on the "discursive identity" of member of parliament Margarita Nelken and on the parliamentary discourse of the Second Republic, special attention will be devoted to persuasive strategies and the image construction of the socialist MP. The corpus consists of discourses and replies to the interventions of other Members of parliament in the parliamentary sessions of 20 October 1932, 28 February 1933, and 25 January 1934. The analysis is based on Fuentes Rodríguez's pragmalinguistics model, on the theor…

Pulsed Electro-Acoustic space charge apparatus – qualifying, testing and monitoring of insulation for HVDC cables and accessories

Introduzione

2019

I cibi, i luoghi e le occasioni del loro consumo sono dunque mezzi, spazi e tempi elettivi della mediazione tra immanenza e trascendenza, tra al di qua e aldilà, e, al contempo, momenti elettivi di ricreazione e affermazione di un corpo sociale; e in verità non può esservi dialogo tra immanenza e trascendenza e le entità che le popolano senza che il cibo e il suo consumo ritualizzato non ne siano parte costitutiva. Su tali condivise consapevolezze antropologiche, che hanno trovato all’interno di ogni cultura una specifica articolazione legata: a specifiche condizioni ambientali che certo hanno condizionato i regimi alimentari; a peculiari sfide identitarie che hanno portato a scelte aliment…

Dop e Slow Food: formaggi siciliani fra politiche alimentari, strategie di mercato e retorica identitaria

2018

The aim of the present contribution is the analysis of the political and economic and socio-cultural dynamics involved in the protection, enhancement and marketing of some dairy products of Sicily, considered both as commercial goods and cultural / identity expressions of a specific place. We will focus on the field of action and repercussions of the PDO and Slow Food brands according to the experience of some farmers belonging to the Consortia and Presidia, and also on the aspects converging on and affecting the construction of these products, as well as on the rhetorical identities emphasized by commercial strategies.

In turvera. La transumanza in Sardegna tra storia e prospettive future

2010

L’articolo esamina il fenomeno della transumanza in Sardegna con una particolare attenzione alle dinamiche storiche, economiche e sociali che l’hanno caratterizzata in passato. Nell’Isola, la transumanza ha visto una battuta d’arresto negli anni Settanta del Novecento, a causa del processo di modernizzazione della locale industria zootecnica, avviatosi all’indomani del secondo conflitto mondiale. Nell’ultimo decennio, le istituzioni politiche, l’industria turistica, importanti apparati dell’Amministrazione, Pro Loco e Associazioni culturali hanno rivolto la loro attenzione agli itinerari tradizionali della transumanza al fine di promuovere l’identità isolana e creare nuove opportunità per l…

Hormesis: Decoding Two Sides of the Same Coin

2015

In the paradigm of drug administration, determining the correct dosage of a therapeutic is often a challenge. Several drugs have been noted to demonstrate contradictory effects per se at high and low doses. This duality in function of a drug at different concentrations is known as hormesis. Therefore, it becomes necessary to study these biphasic functions in order to understand the mechanistic basis of their effects. In this article, we focus on different molecules and pathways associated with diseases that possess a duality in their function and thus prove to be the seat of hormesis. In particular, we have highlighted the pathways and factors involved in the progression of cancer and how t…

Nuove frontiere nella conservazione della biodiversità: Patrimoni di comunità e assetti fondiari collettivi

2016

L’articolo analizza l’intersezione tra l’esigenza globale di conservazione della biodiversità— tradizionalmente affrontata attraverso la messa in opera di aree protette— e la realtà degli assetti fondiari collettivi nel contesto italiano. Viene presentato il percorso internazionale che ha portato al riconoscimento nell’ambito dell’IUCN e della Convenzione sulla Biodiversità dell’efficacia delle forme di gestione sostenibile delle risorse naturali praticate dalle comunità locali e dai popoli indigeni. In Italia tali realtà sono identificate come ‘patrimoni di comunità’ (PdC) ed in gran parte corrispondono agli assetti fondiari collettivi. Vengono proposte due modalità di classificazione di t…

Image classification based on 2D feature motifs

2013

The classification of raw data often involves the problem of selecting the appropriate set of features to represent the input data. In general, various features can be extracted from the input dataset, but only some of them are actually relevant for the classification process. Since relevant features are often unknown in real-world problems, many candidate features are usually introduced. This degrades both the speed and the predictive accuracy of the classifier due to the presence of redundancy in the candidate feature set. In this paper, we study the capability of a special class of motifs previously introduced in the literature, i.e. 2D irredundant motifs, when they are exploited as feat…
