Thermal inertia modeling for soil surface water content estimation: A laboratory experiment
2012
We are proposing a new method for estimating soil surface water content from thermal inertia distributions retrieved from visible–near infrared (VISNIR)and thermal infrared (TIR) images. A drying experiment was conducted on three fi ne-textured soils while acquiring multispectral VIS-NIR and TIR images. Simultaneous measurements of soil water content and thermal inertia were conducted by the thermogravimetric method and the heat pulse technique, respectively. Direct measurements were used to test the thermal inertia approach proposed by Murray and Verhoef that requires only knowledge of soil porosity and can be easily inverted to derive soil water content from thermal inertia. For the three…
Educación familiar y mediación televisiva
2010
This article try to deal with the complex influence of television viewing in the process of socialization of children and adolescents, focusing our attention on the importance of the family as the mediator-educator agency of particular relevance. Once analyzed the basic theoretical assumptions, we deepened in reality under study by providing data about how the studied population lives television and what extent parental mediation influences and affects the process. The article concludes with some reflections and pedagogical suggestions which trying to help to the optimization of the educational reality.
Impact of transparent conductive oxide on the admittance of thin film solar cells
2010
Abstract The impact of transparent electrically conducting oxide (TCO) on the admittance measurements of thin film p–i–n a-Si:H solar cells was investigated. Admittance measurements on solar cell devices, with different area and geometry, in a wide range of frequencies and biases were performed. The admittance measurements of the investigated solar cells, which use the TCO as an electrical contact, showed that the high frequency admittance per area unit depends on the area. This effect increases both with the probe frequency and the size of the solar cells. Transmission line model valid for strip geometry which explains how the resistivity of the TCO layer impacts the measured admittance of…
Cerebral toxicity of penicillins in relation to their hydrophobic character
1975
The neurotoxic effects of ticarcillin, methicillin, phenthicillin, oxacillin, cloxacillin and dicloxacillin were studied in the conscious rabbit. During and after intravenous administration of 1.2 and 2.4 g/kg, resp., over 50 min the blood concentrations of the drugs were determined and the neurotoxicity assessed by continuous recording of the electroencephalogram. The hydrophobia of the penicillins was characterized by determination of their partition coefficients between isobutanol and buffer solution pH 7.4. The penicillins showed quite different neurotoxic properties. A close correlation (r = 0.928) was found between the neurotoxic potency of the penicillins and their partition coeffici…
Changes in physical activity domains during the transition out of high school: Psychosocial and environmental correlates
2015
Background:This study examined changes in multiple physical activity domains during the transition out of high school and psychosocial and environmental determinants of these changes.Methods:A 1-year prospective study was designed. The baseline sample was composed of 244 last-year high school students (58.6% female) from Valencia, Spain. Follow-up rate was 46%. Physical activity and potential determinants were measured by the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire and other evaluated scales in 2 waves.Results:Total physical activity and active commuting (AC) decreased, respectively, by 21% and 36%, only in males. At time 1, access to car/motorbike (inverse), planning/psychosocial barriers (…
A multicentre randomized controlled trial on trans-generational attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in mothers and children (AIMAC): an e…
2018
Abstract. Objective: We examined predictors and moderators of treatment outcome in mothers and children diagnosed with ADHD in a large multicentre RCT. Method: In total, 144 mother-child dyads with ADHD were randomly assigned to either a maternal ADHD treatment (group psychotherapy and open methylphenidate medication, TG) or to a control treatment (individual counselling without psycho- or pharmacotherapy, CG). After maternal ADHD treatment, parent-child training (PCT) for all mother-child dyads was added. The final analysis set was based on 123 dyads with completed primary outcome assessments (TG: n = 67, CG: n = 56). The primary outcome was the change in each child’s externalizing sympto…
Origin of SiO2-rich components in ordinary chondrites
2006
Abstract Silica-rich objects are common minor components in ordinary chondrites (OC), occurring as fragments and as chondrules. Their typical paragenesis is orthopyroxene + SiO 2 (with bulk SiO 2 >65 wt%) and occasionally with additional olivine and/or spinel. Individual silica-rich components (SRC) have previously been studied in various types of OCs, although there is only one comprehensive study of these objects by Brigham et al. [Brigham, C.A., Murrell, M.T., Yabuki, H., Ouyang, Z., El Goresy, A., 1986. Silica-bearing chondrules and clasts in ordinary chondrites. Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta 50, 1655–1666]. Several different explanations of how SRCs formed have been published. The main ques…
Tutela della salute della lavoratrice
2018
Il Capo II del d.lg. n. 151/2001 reca l’attuazione della delega contenuta nell’art. 15 della l. n. 53/2000, con riferimento alla “tutela della salute della lavoratrice” 1 . La rubrica dell’art. 6, a differenza dell’ellittica (e asfittica) intitolazione del Capo II, riferita solo alla «salute della lavoratrice», è intitolata «tutela della sicurezza e della salute». Il 1° co. esplicitamente «prescrive misure per la tutela della sicurezza e della salute delle lavoratrici durante il periodo di gravidanza e fino a sette mesi di età del figlio» 2 , fissando in modo compiuto la reale estensione della disciplina apprestata e il suo riferirsi inscindibil- mente al rapporto madre-figlio 3 . Le dispos…
Evolución de la resistencia transmitida y adquirida a fármacos antirretrovirales en pacientes infectados con VIH-1
2018
Introducción: La adquisición y transmisión de resistencia amenaza el éxito del tratamiento antirretroviral. En este estudio evaluamos el comportamiento epidemiológico de las mutaciones de resistencia (MR) a fármacos antirretrovirales del VIH-1 según factores de riesgo y clínicos específicos. Metodología: Este es un estudio retrospectivo observacional de series transversales acumuladas, realizado en la Unidad de Enfermedades Infecciosas de un hospital universitario en España (CHGUV) entre los años 2003 y 2014. Nuestro objetivo fue estimar la evolución de la frecuencia anual de MR a fármacos antirretrovirales en el genoma de la proteasa y transcriptasa inversa del VIH-1 durante el periodo de …
Marital conflict, parental support, and school adjustment in adolescents
2006
En el presente estudio se analiza la influencia del conflicto marital (ruptura de la relación y violencia como estrategias de resolución de conflictos) y del apoyo parental en el ajuste escolar a través de sus relaciones con la auto-estima social y la violencia escolar en adolescentes. Los participantes en el estudio fueron 733 adolescentes de cuatro centros educativos de la Comunidad Valenciana, con edades comprendidas entre los 11 y 16 años. Para los análisis se llevó a cabo un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales. Los resultados mostraron que el conflicto marital y el apoyo parental se relacionan indirectamente con el ajuste escolar a través de la auto-estima social y la violencia escolar.…
