Effects of microclimate on nest site selection and breeding success of lesser kestrel Falco naumanni in the Gela Plain (Sicily)
2013
Particle chemical properties in the vertical column based on aircraft observations in the vicinity of Cape Verde Islands
2011
During the second Saharan Mineral Dust Experiment (SAMUM-2) field campaign, particles with geometric diameters (d) between ∼0.1 and 25 μm were collected on board of the Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt (German Aerospace Center, DLR) Falcon aircraft. Size, chemical composition and mixing state of aerosols sampled (spatially and vertically resolved) along the West African coastline and in the Cape Verde Islands region were determined by electron microscopy. A pronounced layer structure of biomass-burning aerosol and desert dust was present for all days during the sampling period from 23 January to 6 February. The aerosol composition of the small particles (d < 0.5 μm) was highly v…

Un parco possibile: luoghi e società tra urbanistica e paesaggio
2008
Le trasformazioni possibili del ponente palermitano tra paesaggio, urbanistica e progetto del territorio. In particolare il territorio di Boccadifalco porta con sé numerose istanze da recuperare e valorizzare, sul piano vegetale e naturalistico, sul piano architettonico e monumentale. Nell'articolo e nel volume sono tratteggiati alcuni modelli possibili ed alcune esperienze condotte nella direzione del recupero e della tutela di aree urbane non edificate, anche con vocazioni e caratteri differenti, che hanno costituito ed incrementato la dotazione di verde di alcune città italiane ed europee. Per volere citare qualche esempio di città che possano somigliare al caso di Palermo per dimensione…
Synthesis and Molecular Modeling Studies of Derivatives of a Highly Potent Peptidomimetic Vinyl Ester as Falcipain-2 Inhibitors
2012
Herein we report the synthesis of a set of constrained peptidomimetics endowed with an electrophilic vinyl ester warhead and structurally related to a previously identified lead compound, a potent and irreversible inhibitor of falcipain-2 (FP-2). FP-2 is the main hemoglobinase of the malaria parasite P. falciparum. The new compounds were evaluated for their inhibition against FP-2, and the results were rationalized on the basis of docking experiments. These studies underscore the pivotal role of both the ester function at the P1' site and the trifluoromethyl group of the P3 side chain in determining the correct orientation of the Michael acceptor warhead in the catalytic site, and as a cons…
Los Falcó : a Family of Painters in 16th-century Valencia
2021
A partir del análisis de la documentación publicada y de una aportación importante de noticias inéditas, se realiza el estudio de los Falcó, la familia de pintores valencianos del siglo xvi. Se establece la única existencia de tres pintores y su cronología clara, así como un análisis de sus obras principales, centrándose especialmente en la figura de Nicolás Falcó (activo entre 1493 y 1530) y su hijo Onofre Falcó (activo entre 1536 y 1560), insistiendo en la personalidad de éste último, que era la más confusa.

Lagrangian matches between observations from aircraft, lidar and radar in an orographic warm conveyor belt
2020
Warm conveyor belts (WCBs) are important airstreams in extratropical cyclones, often leading to the formation of intense precipitation and the amplification of upper-level ridges. This study presents a case study that involves aircraft, lidar and radar observations in a WCB ascending from western Europe towards the Baltic Sea during the Hydrological Cycle in the Mediterranean Experiment (HyMeX) and T-NAWDEX-Falcon in October 2012, a preparatory campaign for the THORPEX North Atlantic Waveguide and Downstream Impact Experiment (T-NAWDEX). Trajectories were used to link different observations along the WCB, that is, to establish so-called Lagrangian matches between observations. To this aim, …
