Spatial and temporal variability of rainfall over the Republic of Djibouti from 1946 to 2017.
2021
20 pages; International audience; For the first time, the spatial and temporal variability of rainfall in the Republic of Djibouti is investigated using data from 14 weather stations over the period 1946–2017. Due to limited data availability, high-resolution long-term satellite rainfall products (CHIRPS, PERSIANN-CDR, TAMSATv3, ARC2) and ERA5 reanalysis also contribute to document time–space rainfall variability at monthly, seasonal and annual scales. Principal component analysis identifies two spatially coherent regions of rainfall variability in the east (coastal zone) and the west (inland zone) of the country. Annual rainfall amounts are everywhere very low (60–300 mm), but with contras…
Trynitarny wymiar komunijnej struktury Kościoła w ujęciu Josepha Ratzingera - Benedykta XVI
2015
The Church is a community that has its origin in God. He himself, being the relationship of Three Persons since the beginning of the world calls people to a relationship with him. This community has its fulfillment in the community initiated by the apostles, who following in the mission of Christ are preaching salvation in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The church, besides its spiritual, divine origin also has a temporal dimension expressed in its structure of the local Churches, hierarchy or the implemented mission. Even what in Church is most external and human has its trinitarian representation. The whole Church with all its elements is immersed in the trinitarian r…
Situational factors shape moral judgements in the trolley dilemma in Eastern, Southern and Western countries in a culturally diverse sample
2022
The study of moral judgements often centres on moral dilemmas in which options consistent with deontological perspectives (that is, emphasizing rules, individual rights and duties) are in conflict with options consistent with utilitarian judgements (that is, following the greater good based on consequences). Greene et al. (2009) showed that psychological and situational factors (for example, the intent of the agent or the presence of physical contact between the agent and the victim) can play an important role in moral dilemma judgements (for example, the trolley problem). Our knowledge is limited concerning both the universality of these effects outside the United States and the impact of …
An Automatic Method for Assessing Spiking of Tibial Tubercles Associated with Knee Osteoarthritis
2022
Efficient and scalable early diagnostic methods for knee osteoarthritis are desired due to the disease’s prevalence. The current automatic methods for detecting osteoarthritis using plain radiographs struggle to identify the subjects with early-stage disease. Tibial spiking has been hypothesized as a feature of early knee osteoarthritis. Previous research has demonstrated an association between knee osteoarthritis and tibial spiking, but the connection to the early-stage disease has not been investigated. We study tibial spiking as a feature of early knee osteoarthritis. Additionally, we develop a deep learning based model for detecting tibial spiking from plain radiographs. We collected an…
Farming intensity indirectly reduces crop yield through negative effects on agrobiodiversity and key ecological functions
2022
International audience; Farming intensity and landscape heterogeneity influence agrobiodiversity and associated ecological functions. The relative contributions of these agroecosystem components to agricultural production remain unclear because of inter-relations and weather-dependant variations. Using a structural equation modelling approach, we estimated direct and indirect contributions of farming intensity (soil management, pesticide use and fertilisation) and landscape heterogeneity (of semi-natural covers and crop mosaic) to cereal crop production, in 54 fields (mostly wheat), in two years (24 and 30 fields). Indirect effects were evaluated through agrobiodiversity (carabid and plant …
ll peer tutoring online a distanza per lo sviluppo delle competenze strategiche degli studenti universitari
2021
In questo contributo, dopo avere presentato il modo in cui si è sviluppato negli ultimi trent’anni il tutorato universitario nelle università italiane e descritto brevemente il Piano di Azione Tutoriale (PAT) in uso presso l’Università “Austral” di Buenos Aires, si presenta nelle linee generali il progetto di ricerca-intervento «Telemaco». Questa ricerca è volta a promuovere, nell’attuale situazione di emergenza sanitaria da COVID-19, la prospettiva temporale, il senso di autoefficacia e la percezione di competenza di un gruppo di studenti attualmente iscritti al secondo e al terzo anno del corso di studi triennale in “Scienze dell’Educazione” attivato presso l’Università degli Studi di Pal…
Revista española de orientación y psicopedagogía
2014
RESUMENEste artículo responde a la necesidad de reflexionar acerca de las tutorías universitarias para alumnos de primero y sobre cómo llevar a cabo, de la manera más eficaz y efectiva posible, el Plan de Acción Tutorial (PAT). Esta reflexión se realiza a partir de las consideraciones, aportaciones y experiencias personales que algunos profesores/tutores han manifestado a lo largo de distintas sesiones de trabajo respecto a la implementación del PAT en la Universitat de València. Todo ello, con el objetivo de mejorar e innovar en el contexto universitario basándonos en experiencias reales.ABSTRACTThis article responds to the need of reflecting about university tutoring for first year studen…
Filozofia tu i teraz. Ontologia procesu jako podstawa filozoficznego coachingu
2018
Artykuł zawiera szkic ontologicznych podstaw coachingu filozoficznego – nowej dyscypliny praktycznej, która od roku 2016 stanowi składnik oferty edukacyjnej Uniwersytetu Opolskiego. Jest rozwinięciem idei zawartych w moim tekście Filozofia jako ćwiczenie duchowe – coachingowy model uprawiania filozofii. W drugim paragrafie przedstawiono ontologię Platona z perspektywy filozofii procesu. Widziana z tej perspektywy ontologia Platona jest rodzajem metafizyki doświadczenia – byt nazywany przez Platona „prawdziwym” nie jest rzeczywistością abstraktów, lecz tym, czego doświadczamy w chwilach, gdy rozpoznajemy znaczenie konkretnych sytuacji życiowych w perspektywie Dobra. Filozofia Platona okazuje…
Ultra-High Energy Neutrinos at the Pierre Auger Observatory
2013
The observation of ultrahigh energy neutrinos (UHE nu s) has become a priority in experimental astroparticle physics. UHE nu s can be detected with a variety of techniques. In particular, neutrinos can interact in the atmosphere (downward-going nu) or in the Earth crust (Earth-skimming nu), producing air showers that can be observed with arrays of detectors at the ground. With the surface detector array of the Pierre Auger Observatory we can detect these types of cascades. The distinguishing signature for neutrino events is the presence of very inclined showers produced close to the ground (i.e., after having traversed a large amount of atmosphere). In this work we review the procedure and …
Experimental Constraints on the Deep Magma Feeding System at StromboliVolcano, Italy
2009
International audience; New experiments have been performed on a high-K basalt (PST-9) from Stromboli volcano, Italy, to constrain the physical conditions of golden pumice magmas at their storage level and discuss their petrogenesis. Fluid-present, H2O- and CO2-bearing, near-liquidus experiments were performed at 11508C between 100 and 400MPa and under oxidizing conditions. Glasses were analyzed by Fourier transform IR spectroscopy and their H2O and CO2 concentrations compared with those in glass inclusions.Most glass inclusions cluster near the 200MPa isobar, suggesting entrapment at a depth of ~8 km. Golden pumice magmas have viscosities of 7.9 Pa s and densities of 2.48-2.57 g/cm3. Compo…
