I funghi nella Strategia Globale per la Conservazione delle Piante
2009
I funghi, nonostante siano inseriti in un Regno a parte, sono stati riconosciuti come organismi utili per la definizione di alcune azioni nell’ambito della GSPC (Global Strategy for Plant Conservation). Con l’inserimento del termine generico di “lower plants groups” si è lasciata libera scelta ai Paesi che hanno aderito alla GSPC di valutare l’opportunità di estendere alle crittogame le azioni già in atto per le piante vascolari. Come evidenziato nel recente rapporto sullo “Stato della Biodiversità in Italia” (1) la diversità dei funghi è quantificabile in 4.296 basidiomiceti, tra cui 56 taxa con possibili caratteristiche di endemicità, 12 taxa esotici e 87 rari, minacciati e/o a rischio di…
Some extensions in space-time LGCP: application to earthquake data
2017
In this paper we aim at studying some extensions of complex space-time models, useful for the description of earthquake data. In particular we want to focus on the Log-Gaussian Cox Process (LGCP, [1]) model estimation approach, with some results on global informal diagnostics. Indeed, in our opinion the use of Cox processes that are natural models for point process phenomena that are environmentally driven could be a new approach for the description of seismic events. These models can be useful in estimating the intensity surface of a spatio-temporal point process, in constructing spatially continuous maps of earthquake risk from spatially discrete data, and in real-time seismic activity su…
Nasal IgE in subjects with allergic and non-allergic rhinitis
2020
Abstract Purpose The prevalence of "ocal allergic rhinitis" within individuals suffering from perennial rhinitis remains uncertain, and patients usually are diagnosed with non-allergic rhinitis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of a potential "local allergic rhinitis" in subjects suffering from non-allergic rhinitis in a non-selected group of young students. Methods 131 students (age 25.0 ± 5.1 years) with a possible allergic rhinitis and 25 non-allergic controls without rhinitis symptoms (age 22.0 ± 2.0 years) were recruited by public postings. 97 of 131 students with rhinitis were tested positive (≥3 mm) to prick testing with 17 frequent allergens at visit 1. Twenty-fo…
Spatio-temporal log-Gaussian Cox processes on eartquake events
