Impact of rainfall data resolution in time and space on the urban flooding evaluation
2012
ABSTRACT Climate change and the modification of urban environment increase the frequency and the impact of flooding rising the interest of researchers and practitioners on this topic. Usually flooding frequency analysis in urban areas are indirectly carried out by adopting advanced hydraulic models to simulate long historical rainfall series or design storms. However their results are affected by a grade of uncertainty which has been much investigated in recent years. One of the most critical source of uncertainty inherent to hydraulic model results is linked to the imperfect knowledge of the rainfall input data both in time and space. Several studies show that hydrological modelling in urb…
Water status modelling : impact of local rainfall variability in Burgundy (France)
2016
6 pages; International audience; Water status is a key factor in vine development and berry ripening. Water status is strongly affected byenvironmental parameters such as soil and climate. Whereas at local scale the soil variability is frequentlyaccounted for, little scientific reports are available concerning the impact of local rainfall variability ongrapevine water status. In order to accurately register the space and time variations of rainfall at local scale, adense rain-gauges network has been installed in Burgundy. It is composed of 45 rain-gauges over a 28 km² area.Rainfall data collected by each rain-gauge in 2014 and 2015 was used as input variables in the grapevine waterbalance m…
Resolvent Estimates Near the Boundary of the Range of the Symbol
2019
The purpose of this chapter is to give quite explicit bounds on the resolvent near the boundary of Σ(p) (or more generally, near certain “generic boundary-like” points.) The result is due (up to a small generalization) to Montrieux (Estimation de resolvante et construction de quasimode pres du bord du pseudospectre, 2013) and improves earlier results by Martinet (Sur les proprietes spectrales d’operateurs nonautoadjoints provenant de la mecanique des fluides, 2009) about upper and lower bounds for the norm of the resolvent of the complex Airy operator, which has empty spectrum (Almog, SIAM J Math Anal 40:824–850, 2008). There are more results about upper bounds, and some of them will be rec…
Characterization of the 3D information of Calyptogena shells
2003
We propose in this paper an application of multiresolution analysis techniques to extract information contained in the growth increments of a bivalve mollusk called: Calyptogena . The first stage consists in extracting a range image of the mollusk’s shell using a 3-D scanner. Applying a multiresolution analysis enables us to localize precisely those growth increments by preserving relevant details. Moreover, interesting spatial and frequency properties of the multiresolution analysis underline information contained on the shell. Intra-individual variation and inter-individual variations are compared to assume some conclusions as for the ontogenetic evolution of the animal such as periodicit…
Structural dynamics in F1ATPase during the first reaction cycle of ATP hydrolysis
1991
Abstract The velocity of ATP hydrolysis, catalyzed by purified F 1 ATPase from Micrococcus luteus , was decelerated on decreasing the temperature. At 13′C one reaction cycle is completed after 20 s. Hydrolysis was triggered upon rapid mixing of the enzyme with ATP. During the first reaction cycle, succeeding structural alterations of the F 1 ATPase were traced by time resolved X-ray scattering. The scattering spectra obtained from consecutive intervals of 1 s, revealed the F 1 ATPase to pass a conformational state exhibiting an expanded (6%) molecular shape. The expanded state was observed between 45% and 65% of the time required to complete the reaction cycle. This pointx out a conformatio…
Análisis de las actuaciones de los estudiantes de secundaria cuando resuelven problemas verbales en el entorno de la hoja de cálculo
2005
En este trabajo presentamos una división en pasos ideales del Método de Resolución de la Hoja Electrónica de Cálculo y analizamos las dificultades propias del método que su uso plantea al resolutor. También mostramos los resultados de un estudio exploratorio realizado con alumnos de primer curso de secundaria en el que pretendíamos observar cómo resolvían problemas en el entorno de la hoja de cálculo y cómo se enfrentaban a las dificultades propias del método.
(Table 1) Sea surface temperature reconstruction for eastern equatorial Pacific surface sediment samples
2012
Significant uncertainties persist in the reconstruction of past sea surface temperatures in the eastern equatorial Pacific, especially regarding the amplitude of the glacial cooling and the details of the post-glacial warming. Here we present the first regional calibration of alkenone unsaturation in surface sediments versus mean annual sea surface temperatures (maSST). Based on 81 new and 48 previously published data points, it is shown that open ocean samples conform to established global regressions of Uk'37 versus maSST and that there is no systematic bias from seasonality in the production or export of alkenones, or from surface ocean nutrient concentrations or salinity. The flattening…

Rutas cognitivas de futuros maestros ante una situación comparativa de razones desiguales
2019
En esta investigación se analizan las rutas cognitivas que subyacen a las resoluciones de un grupo de futuros maestros ante una tarea de comparación de razones desiguales en el contexto de las ofertas comerciales. La revisión de la literatura y el análisis en profundidad de las componentes críticas de la tarea nos han permitido definir las dimensiones de análisis de las resoluciones. A partir de ellas hemos realizado un análisis cualitativo de corte interpretativo del cual se desprende que los participantes poseen un escaso desarrollo del pensamiento relativo. Un número importante de ellos presenta dificultades con la comparación de las cantidades relativas desiguales cuando estas se les pr…
Digital orthophotos at a scale of 1:5000 from high resolution satellite images
2004
This paper describes the first results of a study, carried out within the national research program “Cofin2001”, on the potential use of high resolution satellite images for making digital orthophotos at a scale of 1:5000 and 1:10,000. Particularly, images from IKONOS II and QuickBird of four different types of areas were employed: the first area is the city of Palermo, a greatly urbanized area; the second area is the extra-urban territory near the town of Contessa Entellina in south-western Sicily; the third area is the famous tourist resort of Scopello, in the western Sicily; the last area is the Caselle Airport, a flat zone near Torino. The first three images were orthorectified by using…
