Le parole della musica nella Divina Commedia
2018
L'Autrice analizza un ampio corpus delle parole legate alla musica nella Divina Commedia, esaminando le differenze nelle occorrenze delle tre cantiche e giustificando le differenze stesse. Dei lessemi viene presentata un'analisi condotta secondo gli approcci propri della linguistica cognitiva, nello specifico quello semasiologico e quello onomasiologico. Mentre la parola 'musica ' non è attesta, molto diffuso è il termine 'canto' nel valore proprio e in quello metaforico. La rete di relazioni semantiche mostra una notevole ambiguità, come è dimostrato per quanto riguarda il canto di Casella, il secondo del Purgatorio. Il lavoro intende entrare in qualche modo nel laboratorio di scrittura de…
Distribution of Pholeter gastrophilus (Digenea) within the stomach of four odontocete species: the role of the diet and digestive physiology of hosts
2005
We compared the distribution of the digenean Pholeter gastrophilus in the stomach of 27 harbour porpoises, Phocoena phocoena, 27 striped dolphins, Stenella coeruleoalba, 18 bottlenose dolphins, Tursiops truncatus, and 100 long-finned pilot whales, Globicephala melas. The stomach of these species is composed of 4 chambers of different size, structure and function. In all species, P. gastrophilus was largely restricted to the glandular region of the stomach, but the parasite tended to favour the fundic chamber in bottlenose dolphins and harbour porpoises, the pyloric chamber in pilot whales, and none in striped dolphins. However, predictability at infrapopulation level was generally low, sugg…

Cáncer en los primeros 18 meses de vida
2020
Resumen: Introducción: La enfermedad oncohematológica continúa siendo la primera causa de mortalidad no traumática en la infancia y una importante causa de morbilidad. El paciente menor de 18 meses presenta particularidades clínicas, diagnósticas y terapéuticas que es interesante conocer por todo pediatra, con el fin de lograr una mayor supervivencia y una menor comorbilidad a lo largo de su vida. Material y métodos: Estudio descriptivo retrospectivo de variables clínicas, diagnósticas y terapéuticas en pacientes menores de 18 meses diagnosticados de enfermedad oncohematológica que reciben quimioterapia en una unidad de oncología pediátrica entre enero 2007 y agosto 2019. Resultados: Setent…
Resources, recruitment limitation and invader species identity determine pattern of spontaneous invasion in experimental grasslands
2009
Summary 1 A number of experimental studies have supported the hypothesis that diversity increases invasion resistance, but several mechanisms were proposed to explain this relationship. We studied spontaneous invasion in experimental grasslands varying in species richness (1–16 (60)) and plant functional group richness and identity (1–4; grasses, legumes, tall herbs small herbs) during the first 3 years after establishment on large-area plots of 20 × 20 m size. 2 Invader species number, biomass and density decreased with increasing community species richness. The identity of successful invaders changed through time as the relative importance of external invaders (= species not belonging to …
Explicit incorporation of spatial variability in a biomass dynamics assessment model
2021
Abstract The sustainable management of fisheries has largely relied on stock assessment models that assume stocks are homogeneous throughout their domain. However, ignoring complex underlying spatial patterns can lead to increased risk of failures in management. Utilizing geostatistical approaches in conjunction with a traditional fishery biomass dynamics model, we develop a spatially-explicit modelling framework that treats the underlying population dynamics as spatial processes. Simulation experiments demonstrate that this approach reliably estimates variance parameters and accurately captures true patterns of population change. We further demonstrate the utility of our modelling framewor…
Effects of temporal abiotic drivers on the dynamics of an allometric trophic network model
2023
Current ecological research and ecosystem management call for improved understanding of the abiotic drivers of community dynamics, including temperature effects on species interactions and biomass accumulation. Allometric trophic network (ATN) models, which simulate material (carbon) transfer in trophic networks from producers to consumers based on mass-specific metabolic rates, provide an attractive framework to study consumer–resource interactions from organisms to ecosystems. However, the developed ATN models rarely consider temporal changes in some key abiotic drivers that affect, for example, consumer metabolism and producer growth. Here, we evaluate how temporal changes in carrying ca…
‘Back to the Future’—Oak wood-pasture for wildfire prevention in the Mediterranean
2021
In the summer of 2021, enormous wildfires in the Mediterranean eliminated huge areas of mainly coniferous forest, destroyed adjacent settlements and claimed the lives of many people. The fires indicate effects of climate change and expose consequences of rural demographic changes, deficits in regional and touristic development planning and shortcomings in forest policy. This forum article highlights the dimensions of the problem, calls for a paradigm shift and shows solutions. Land abandonment, woody plant encroachment and non-reflective afforestation are leading to increasing amounts of combustible biomass. To prevent disastrous fires in future, fundamental changes in tree species composit…
Poor nutritional quality of primary producers and zooplankton driven by eutrophication is mitigated at upper trophic levels
2022
Eutrophication and rising water temperature in freshwaters may increase the total production of a lake while simultaneously reducing the nutritional quality of food web components. We evaluated how cyanobacteria blooms, driven by agricultural eutrophication (in eutrophic Lake Köyliöjärvi) or global warming (in mesotrophic Lake Pyhäjärvi), influence the biomass and structure of phytoplankton, zooplankton, and fish communities. In terms of the nutritional value of food web components, we evaluated changes in the ω-3 and ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) of phytoplankton and consumers at different trophic levels. Meanwhile, the lakes did not differ in their biomasses of phytoplankton, zoo…
Titmice are a better indicator of bird density in Northern European than in Western European forests
2022
Publisher Copyright: © 2022 The Authors. Ecology and Evolution published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd. Population sizes of many birds are declining alarmingly and methods for estimating fluctuations in species’ abundances at a large spatial scale are needed. The possibility to derive indicators from the tendency of specific species to co-occur with others has been overlooked. Here, we tested whether the abundance of resident titmice can act as a general ecological indicator of forest bird density in European forests. Titmice species are easily identifiable and have a wide distribution, which makes them potentially useful ecological indicators. Migratory birds often use information on the densit…
