Diputación y Germanía: Nueva historia de una aportación financiera
2019
It's widely known, since long time ago, that the reign of Charles I began in the old kingdom of Valencia with the «Germanías»; a social conflict that finished by denerating into a civil war. In the following pages, we try to analyse the problems concerned with the finances of the army organized by the viceroy Diego Hurtado de Mendoza from the perspective of one of the institutions involved in the economic management of this army: the «Diputado del General».

2017
Resum: La revista Estudis Romanics 39 (2017) ha publicat el meu article: “Enyego d’Avalos, autor del Curial e Guelfa ?”, que resumeix una part de la meua tesi doctoral, La cort napolitana d’Alfons el Magnanim: el context del «Curial e Guelfa» (Universitat de Valencia, 2016).

Plants in the UK flower a month earlier under recent warming.
2022
Global temperatures are rising at an unprecedented rate, but environmental responses are often difficult to recognize and quantify. Long-term observations of plant phenology, the annually recurring sequence of plant developmental stages, can provide sensitive measures of climate change and important information for ecosystem services. Here, we present 419 354 recordings of the first flowering date from 406 plant species in the UK between 1753 and 2019 CE. Community-wide first flowering advanced by almost one month on average when comparing all observations before and after 1986 ( p < 0.0001). The mean first flowering time is 6 days earlier in southern than northern sites, 5 days earlier…
Negotiator and arbitrator: The activity of the Regent Melchor Sisternes during the Sardinian Parliament of 1677-1678
2018
Durante la Edad Moderna, el reino de Cerdeña contó con una importante institución propia de carácter representativo: el Parlamento. A diferencia de lo que ocurría en las Cortes de los reinos peninsulares de la Corona de Aragón, en Cerdeña estas nunca fueron presididas por los monarcas, quienes delegaban esa tarea en sus virreyes. Este trabajo analiza las funciones desempeñadas por el regente de la Cancillería de Cerdeña durante el transcurso de las sesiones parlamentarias. La particularidad de que el Parlamento fuera presidido por el virrey confería a los regentes de la Cancillería un papel del que no gozaron en las Cortes de los reinos peninsulares, por tanto, se convertían en una figura p…

A taxonomic revision of the Capparis spinosa group (Capparaceae) from eastern Africa to Oceania
2015
The variability, autecology and distribution of the Capparis spinosa group have been studied in eastern Africa, Madagascar, southern Asia, Australia and Oceania. In these areas the taxonomic treatment of the group, also represented in holoarctic Regions of the Old World, is still critical. The forms widespread in the study area are here referred to four subspecies of C. spinosa . The recognized subspecies mostly show geographical vicariance, except in some contact areas of the Middle East and western Himalaya. Two nomenclatural novelties, i. e. C. spinosa subsp. cordifolia comb. et stat. nov. and C. spinosa subsp. himalayensis stat. nov., are proposed. Among the recognized taxa, C. spinosa …
Study of the polysemic term of minerality in wine: Segmentation of consumers based on their textual responses to an open-ended survey
2016
International audience; Over the past 20 years, the word "minerality" has been increasingly used in the description of wines. However, a precise definition of the concept of minerality appears to be inexistent, and no consensual meaning, even among wine professionals, can be identified. Although this word usage seems to spread out from wine professionals to consumers, research on what consumers assume about minerality is scarce. This paper aims to study the various concepts about minerality held-by consumers by using an open-ended questionnaire.A total of 1697 French-speaking consumers responded to an, online survey and their free answers were analysed using statistical textual methods. The…
