Le solo imprévu : l?atelier d?improvisation comme lieu d?échanges entre cultures d?audition
2021
Starting from sociologist Anne-Marie Green?s idea of ?common space?, and from Hans Robert Hauss? reception theory, the improvisation workshop is thought to be a way of transforming the practices of reception, in order to modify the nature of the culture of listening of each listener. Four research axis are, then, proposed, from the validation of the personal experience of the participants to the reception of the instant?s surprise as a factor of education, including the research of communicational tools specific to reception of music, capable of captivating the listeners with the original aspects of the unknown musical territories.
3'-Untranslated regions of oxidative phosphorylation mRNAs function in vivo, as enhancers of translation
2000
Recent findings have indicated that the 3´-untranslated region (3´-UTR) of the mRNA encoding the β-catalytic subunit of the mitochondrial H+-ATP synthase has an in vitro translation-enhancing activity (TEA) [Izquierdo and Cuezva, Mol. Cell. Biol. (1997) 17, 5255–5268; Izquierdo and Cuezva, Biochem. J. (2000) 346, 849–855]. In the present work, we have expressed chimaeric plasmids that encode mRNA variants of green fluorescent protein in normal rat kidney and liver clone 9 cells to determine whether the 3´-UTRs of nuclear-encoded mRNAs involved in the biogenesis of mitochondria have an intrinsic TEA. TEA is found in the 3´-UTR of the mRNAs encoding the α- and β-subunits of the rat H+-ATP syn…
Urban Greening management in the framework of Smart City Development
2014
Quality of green spaces is an important indicator in the smart urban evolution. Integration between green management needs and ecosystem services within environmental policies and local development plans is often very limited. Urban green infrastructures and related issues still arouse poor interest, mainly in South Mediterranean cities. Methods for full assessment of urban green areas integrating diverse features of sustainability (from biodiversity to public awareness and fruition) are still lacking. Here we aim to present an integrated tool to evaluate/monitor the state and sustainability of urban green spaces. The goal is to support the governance systems of urban green areas by focusin…
Accessibilità post-pandemia: riflessioni sullo spazio pubblico
2021
The correlation between the psycho-physical well-being of citizens and the provision of green areas has been one of the cornerstones of urban planning since its inception, as its constant commitment to adapt cities and territories to emerging challenges. The spread of SARS-Cov-2 has changed the relationship between citizens and urban space. The public space, has been limited and banned, confining citizens within their private space and the psycho-physical well-being of citizens depended only on the quality of the domestic space.The pandemic represents a moment of reflection and research for the disciplines that deal with the quality of life of citizens. The pandemic crisis may be an opportu…
A Plant Sociological Procedure for the Ecological Design and Enhancement of Urban Green Infrastructure
2021
AbstractUrban green infrastructure could represent an important mean for environmental mitigation, if designed according to the principles of restoration ecology. Moreover, if suitably executed, managed and sized, they may be assimilated to meta-populations of natural habitats, deserving to be included in the biodiversity monitoring networks. In this chapter, we combined automatised and expert opinion-based procedures in order to select the vascular plant assemblages to populate different microhabitats (differing in terms of light and moisture) co-occurring on an existing green roof in Zurich (Switzerland). Our results lead to identify three main plant species groups, which prove to be the …
Giustizia ambientale e recupero delle aree verdi: il caso di Palermo
2021
L’urban shrinkage è diventata una questione centrale tanto nel dibattito scientifico quanto nell’agenda politica di diverse città europee. Secondo i dati EUROSTAT (2019), circa il 40% delle città europee con più di 200.000 abitanti stanno perdendo popolazione; una contrazione che si esplicita maggiormente, sotto il profilo spaziale, in una progressiva sottoutilizzazione del patrimonio edificato, così come nel contestuale incremento di aree e terreni in stato di abbandono. In questo quadro controverso di mutazione strutturale della città, così come l’abbiamo conosciuta, le politiche urbane alla prova in Europa tentano di declinare la decrescita quale occasione strategica di investimento sull…

In addition I wanted to find out the importance of animals and nature. This lead to the following problem being addressed: What consequence has the participation in In the Courtyard had for the individual’s everyday life? Method: The method in this research project has been quali…
Ķīnas tiešo investīciju Latvijā ilgtspēja
2021
Ķīnas tiešo investīciju Latvijā ilgtspēja. Pētījums ir par Ķīnas tiešajām investīcijām Latvijā. Tajā tiek analizēts, vai Ķīnas investīciju uzņēmumi Latvijā ir ilgtspējīgi. Ja viņi pilda saistības attiecībā uz korporatīvo sociālo atbildību, ja tie nekaitē videi. Tā kā Latvijā palielinās Ķīnas investīcijas, jāpārliecinās, ka tie nes peļņu, kā arī drošību.
The study of climate change in Primary Education: an exploration from Social Science textbooks in the Valencian Community
2020
El cambio climático constituye uno de los principales desafíos socio-ambientales del actual siglo XXI. El objetivo de esta investigación es analizar los contenidos sobre el cambio climático que proponen los manuales escolares de Educación Primaria de Ciencias Sociales (3er ciclo) en la Comunidad Valenciana (España) atendiendo a: 1) la explicación del fenómeno (causas y consecuencias); y 2) la descripción de los principales gases de efecto invernadero. Los resultados indican que actualmente estos recursos proyectan una imagen excesivamente catastrófica sobre el cambio climático, especialmente por las consecuencias que se aluden (incremento de los fenómenos extremos atmosféricos) y citando co…
“Zaļās” un ilgtspējīgās pasaules uztveres koncepcija biznesa vides tekstos
2019
Pēdējo gadu laikā cilvēki arvien vairāk sāk pievērst uzmanību apkārtējās vides draudiem un sāk vairāk apspriest ilgtspējību un “zaļās” domāšanas tematus. Patērētāji izdara spiedienu uz industrijām, izvēloties atbalstīt ilgspējīgi domājošus uzņēmumus un pērkot “zaļās” preces, tādēļ šī pētījuma mērķis ir noskaidrot vissatbilstošāko vārdšķiru kosmētikas produktu aprakstos un saprast kurš uzņēmums atspoguļo “zaļo” domāšanu visvairāk. Literatūras apskats sniedz teorētisko pamatu empīriskās daļas veikšanai. Kosmētikas aprakstu izpētes gaitā tika secināts, ka no vārdiem, kuri ir saistīti ar ilgtspējību, visbiežāk izmantotā vārdšķira ir īpašības vārds, kā arī tika secināts, ka pastāv saikne starp E…
