The conservation potential of brook-side key habitats in managed boreal forests
2011
Today, maintaining biodiversity is included in the targets of boreal forest management. A widespread approach in northern Europe is to identify and preserve woodland key habitats within managed forests. Woodland key habitats are expected to be patches that host populations of threatened and declining species, and the preservation of these patches is assumed to enable the persistence of the focal species in the landscape. In Finland, the criteria for selecting woodland key habitats are defined in the Finnish Forest Act, and the selection has been done by forest practitioners. Our objective was to determine whether the surroundings of boreal brooks and rivulets qualified as key habitats are t…
Ecology, environmental requirements and conservation of corticioid fungi occupying small diameter dead wood
2016
The increasing human impact upon the biosphere of earth is causing profound changes across all spatial scales. The ability to cope with human-induced disturbance varies among organisms; specialist species are more negatively affected than generalist species. Forests are among the most heavily affected ecosystems; especially the dead wood associated organisms are in peril. The earlier research has strongly focused on large diameter dead wood and associated species. The aim of this thesis was to investigate small diameter dead wood and collect systematic information about species richness and abundance as well as habitat and substrate preferences of associated corticioid fungi. Fungal data wa…
Crustacea Decapoda from Ustica (Southern Tyrrhenian Sea): species distribution and sampling approach.
2011
The decapod crustacean fauna of Ustica Island (Sicily, southern Tyrrhenian Sea) has been investigated in summer 2002 with the aid of many different sampling methods: suction device, pushnet, skid trawl, trammel net, traps, underwater observation, interviews. All the substrata occurring around the island from 0 to about -30 m were surveyed: midlittoral rock, infralittoral rock, pebbles, seagrass (Posidonia oceanica) bed, sand, detritic bottom, submerged cave. Fiftyseven species were collected in the investigated localities. Abundance and frequency of all species in the samples and in each surveyed biotope are given. The performance of each sampling method has been evaluated, in terms of numb…
Habitat Determinants and Density of the Endemic Sicilian Rock Partridge Alectoris graeca whitakeri on Mt. Etna, Sicily, Italy
2022
The assessment of the conservation status of a species is the first step to prevent local extinction and to plan appropriate, effective and scientifically sound conservation actions, hence knowledge of the distribution, population trends and characteristics of preferred habitat is crucial for the conservation of a species. Galliformes are facing increasing threats related to overhunting, habitat loss and fragmentation, and human disturbance. The Sicilian Rock Partridge (hereafter Rock Partridge) Alectoris graeca whitakeri is a significant conservation unit endemic to Sicily (Italy) classified as Near Threatened by the IUCN due to a decreasing population. Few studies have been conducted on t…
Visages des quartiers d'habitat social
1997
La Franche-Comté est l'une des plus petites régions de France. la 17e par la superficie, et la 20e par la population. Ses 1 097 276 habitants représentent 2% de la population française et sa densité n'est que de 68 h/km2. Pourtant. elle connaît. elle aussi. des problèmes de logement qui doivent être mis en relation avec de très grandes disparités de peuplement.
Enseñanza de las ciencias : revista de investigación y experiencias didácticas
2021
Este trabajo pretende identificar los problemas más relevantes para la educación obligatoria en el campo de la alimentación y la actividad física desde el punto de vista de la educación para la salud. Para ello, se realizó una revisión bibliográfica y una consulta a expertos a través de un estudio Delphi y de un encuentro presencial. Esta combinación ha permitido consensuar entre diferentes sectores profesionales no solamente una lista de problemas y contenidos competenciales necesarios sino también aquéllos considerados como prescindibles. Los resultados de este estudio permitirán actualizar la educación alimentaria en la escuela y replantearse el curriculum desde una perspectiva que integ…
PAROLE MIGRANTI TRA ORIENTE E OCCIDENTE
2015
L’immagine che oggi il Mediterraneo offre è lungi dall’essere rassicurante. Ai nostri giorni si può dire che le sue opposte rive non abbiano in comune che le loro insoddisfazioni. E sempre più si percepisce questo mare come spazio di attraversamenti intollerati. Percepire il Mediterraneo partendo dal suo passato rimane tuttavia un’abitudine tenace, e a volte viene da pensare che la retrospettiva prevalga sulla prospettiva. La retrospettiva è però irrinunciabile, oggi più che mai. E lo è nel momento in cui la realizzazione di una convivenza in seno ai territori multietnici, là dove si incrociano e si mescolano culture, religioni, lingue diverse, conosce sotto i nostri occhi uno smacco crudel…
Arabismi di ambito agricolo e alimentare in Sicilia e nel Mediterraneo
2017
L’immagine del Mediterraneo come luogo di migrazioni, incontri e attraversamenti culturali pluridirezionali è nelle parole di Ferdinand Braudel quando lo definisce «non un mare, ma un susseguirsi di mari. Non una civiltà, ma una serie di civiltà accatastate le une sulle altre». Ma la complessità “disegnata” da Braudel si mostra ancora più intricata quando si guarda alla lingua con le sue forti dinamiche variabili. Come ha più volte osservato Giovanni Ruffino, per il linguista può essere utile adottare la formula «lingue circolari/lingue marginali» o, ancora meglio, la formula «correnti marginali e correnti circolari di lingua e cultura», per riferirsi a una molteplicità di condizioni lingui…
L'habitat et la nécropole celtes de Cagny Carrefour Philippe
2015
The site of Cagny on the "Plaine de Caen" was excavated from February to July 2008 and was the first site in Lower Normandy to reap the benefits of large sacle mechanical earth moving, the entire site being revealed over 13.6 acres. Beyond the two enclosures identified during a prior archaeological evaluation, this strategy, prescribed by the Ministry of Culture and Communication's archeological service in Lower-Normandy, resulted in the detection of unexpected remains and occupations. Indeed, we were able to study a settlement dating back to the Middle Neolithic II and a large necropolis with monuments dating to the Early to Middle Bronze Ages. For the Iron Age, features revealing domestic…
