Modeling of wind gap formation and development of sedimentary basins during fold growth: application to the Zagros Fold Belt, Iran
2016
Mountain building and landscape evolution are controlled by interactions between river dynamics and tectonic forces. Such interactions have been extensively studied, however a quantitative evaluation of tectonic/geomorphic feedbacks, which is imperative for understanding sediments routing within orogens and fold-and-thrust belts, remains to be undertaken. Here, we employ numerical simulations to assess the conditions of uplift and river incision necessary to deflect an antecedent drainage network during the growth of one, or several, folds. We propose that a partitioning of the river network into internal (endorheic) and longitudinal drainage arises as a result of lithological differences w…
Fluid geochemistry of the San Vicente geothermal field (El Salvador)
1997
The volcano Chichontepeque (San Vicente) is one of the nine recent volcanoes making up the El Salvador sector of the WNW-ESE-trending active Central American volcanic belt. Thermal activity is at present reduced to a few thermal springs and fumaroles. The most important manifestations (Agua Agria and Los Infernillos Ciegos) are boiling springs and fumaroles located on the northern slope of the volcano (850 m a.s.l.) along two radial faults. The chloride acid waters of the Los Infernillos area are partly fed by a deep hydrothermal aquifer (crossed at 1100–1300 m by a geothermal exploration well), which finds a preferential path to the surface through the radial fault system. C02 is the most …
Subsurface geometries in central sicily FTB as a premise for hydrocarbon exploration
2008
The study concerns a sector of the Maghrebian Sicilian Fold and Thrust Belt (FTB), located in central Sicily between the southern edge of the Madonie Mts. and the Caltanissetta trough. Interpretation of recently acquired seismic profiles, constrained by joint detailed stratigraphy and field investigation, revealed the structure of the study area as formed by a thick pile of deep water carbonate (Imerese and Sicanian) thrusts lying on carbonate platform imbricates. In the forward migration of the FTB, two main tectonic events were envisaged; shallow and deep seated thrusts occurred during the Miocene-early Pleistocene time interval that deformed the former sedimentary cover of the continenta…
<i>Acacia cyclops</i> A. Cunn. ex G. Don (Leguminosae) in Italy: first cases of naturalization
2012
The first two cases of naturalization of <i>Acacia cyclops</i> are reported for Italy. Young trees were observed growing in the wild some 15 years ago on Linosa (Pelagie Islands, Strait of Sicily). A decade later, this alien plant should no longer be considered as a casual, since a very intensive process of self-sown regeneration has been observed in some plantations on Lampedusa, the major island of the same Archipelago. The available literature suggests the need for careful monitoring of the ongoing invasion process, as <i>A. cyclops</i> has already shown a very invasive behaviour elsewhere within Mediterranean-type biomes due to its ability to withstand high envir…
El género <i>Lysaphidus</i> (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) en la Península Ibérica
1995
The genus Lysaphidus Smith, 1944 (Hymenoptera, Braconidae, Aphidiinae) is recorded for the first time from the Iberian Peninsula represented by two species: L. arvensis Stary, 1960, first record for the Iberian Peninsula, and L. santolinae n. sp., both of them parasitoids of Coloradoa Wilson,1910 genus (Homoptera, Aphididae). The mummies were collected on Santolina chamaecyparissus L. and Santolina rosmarinifolia L. (Asteraceae).
Ar LoRaWAN raidītājiem aprīkotu objektu monitoringa sistēma

Putnu migrācijas pētījumi palīdz uzzināt daudz jauna par putnu dzīvesveidu. Šiem pētījumiem bieži tiek izmantoti nelieli putni, jo tie ir vieglāk pieejami. Nelielu putnu migrācijas pētījumos šobrīd īsti nav iespēju noteikt putnu lokāciju migrācijas laikā. Izmantojot šā brīža modernākās ierīces, putnu migrācijā dati tiek iegūti, uzliekot vides uztveršanas ierīci putnam, noņemot to nākamajā ligzdošanas periodā (pēc gada). Migrācijas ceļi pēc šādas metodes tiek rēķināti no sensoru datiem pēc tam, kad putns ir atgriezies ligzdošanas vietā. Tā kā putna ķermenis ir viegls, tad arī ierīcei, kas lokācijas datus pārraidītu, ir jābūt nelielai, vieglai un ar zemu enerģijas patēriņu. Darbā apskatītais …
On Augmented Reality for the Learning of 3D-Geometric Contents: A Preliminary Exploratory Study with 6-Grade Primary Students
2019
Nowadays, Augmented Reality (AR) is one of the emerging technologies with a greater impact in the Education field. Research has proved that AR-based activities improve the teaching and learning processes. Also, the use of this type of technology in classroom facilitates the understanding of contents from different areas as Arts, Mathematics or Science. In this work we propose an AR-based instruction in order to explore the benefits in a 6th-grade Primary course related to 3D-geometry shapes. This first experiment, designed from an exploratory approach, will shed light on new study variables to perform new implementations whose conclusions become more consistent. The results obtained allow u…
G-CLASS: geosynchronous radar for water cycle science – orbit selection and system design
2019
The mission geosynchronous – continental land atmosphere sensing system (G-CLASS) is designed to study thediurnal water cycle, using geosynchronous radar. Although the water cycle is vital to human society, processes on timescalesless than a day are very poorly observed from space. G-CLASS, using C-band geosynchronous radar, could transform this. Itsscience objectives address intense storms and high resolution weather prediction, and significant diurnal processes such assnow melt and soil moisture change, with societal impacts including agriculture, water resource management, flooding, andlandslides. Secondary objectives relate to ground motion observations for earthquake, volcano, and subs…
Morphological characterization, germination ecology and conservation of narrow endemic plant species of the Aeolian Islands (Sicily)
2016
This stusy is focused on four narrow endemic species of the Aeolian fora: Anthemis aeolica, Erysimum brulloi, Cytisus aeolicus and Silene hicesiae. Morphological characterization of seeds, seed germination and dormancy regulation have been investigated for these species.
Integración de la gestión de la calidad y la supply chain. Análisis del proceso desde un enfoque cualitativo de investigación
2019
El desarrollo de la competitividad en las empresas es determinante para el crecimiento de las organizaciones y el país. La gestión de la calidad (QM) brinda a las empresas las capacidades para el desarrollo de productos y servicios que cumplan con estándares de calidad que son reconocidos por los mercados locales y globales. De otra parte, la gestión de la supply chain management (SCM) permite a las empresas el desarrollo de la competitividad a través de la estructura de cadenas de valor, integrando a los clientes y a los proveedores para entregar los bienes y servicios en las condiciones de tiempo, cantidad y lugar pactados. Tanto la QM como la SCM, presentan condiciones e intereses que so…
