Osgillazioni eustatiche, biocronologia dei depositi continentali quaternari e neotettonica nella Sicilia nord-occidentale (penisola di San Vito lo Ca…
1999
Vengono presentati i risultati di uno studio interdisciplinare condotto nella Penisola di San Vito lo Capo, Sicilia nord - occidentale. In questa area i terreni quaternari sono rappresentati da depositi marini e di spiaggia distribuiti a varie quote e da depositi continentali contenenti resti di vertebrati. Questi terreni si rinvengono all'interno di solchi e grotte marine, dove sono state riconosciute anche fasce a fori di litodomi, o costituiscono corpi sedimentari che giacciono sopra superfici di abrasione marina. Le associazioni a mammiferi presenti in tali terreni appartengono al complesso faunistico a Elephas falconeri del primo Pleistocene medio, al complesso a Elephas mnaidriensis d…
Rapid shifting of a deep magmatic source at Fagradalsfjall volcano, Iceland
2022
AbstractRecent Icelandic rifting events have illuminated the roles of centralized crustal magma reservoirs and lateral magma transport1–4, important characteristics of mid-ocean ridge magmatism1,5. A consequence of such shallow crustal processing of magmas4,5 is the overprinting of signatures that trace the origin, evolution and transport of melts in the uppermost mantle and lowermost crust6,7. Here we present unique insights into processes occurring in this zone from integrated petrologic and geochemical studies of the 2021 Fagradalsfjall eruption on the Reykjanes Peninsula in Iceland. Geochemical analyses of basalts erupted during the first 50 days of the eruption, combined with associate…
The reinterpretation of Cova Negra archaeological and stratigraphical sequence and its implications in the knowledge of the Middle Palaeolithic Iberi…
2020
This paper presents new data from the reinterpretation of the Cova Negra sequence from a chronological and stratigraphic perspective. The primary aim is to reorder the lithic industry from the excavations of the 1950s in light of the stratigraphic sequence, paying particular attention to raw materials, knapping methods and tools. The reconstruction, carried out from a taphonomic perspective, is specified in sectors B, C and F, and the archaeological levels and the included material are adjusted to the stratigraphic levels. Although the number of remains involved in the proposed chronology is reduced in relation to previous work, it is an arrangement that relies on a more precise chronostrat…
Desalination. From a questioned resource to a necessary and strategic resource during drought situations for the water supply in the Segura River Bas…
2018
En España, la desalinización ha cobrado un gran impulso en las dos últimas décadas gracias a la aprobación en 2001 del Plan Hidrológico Nacional y en 2004 del Programa A.G.U.A. Ello ha sido motivado por dos factores principales: 1) Las recurrentes e intensas sequías en las últimas décadas, en especial, la de los años noventa en la que se puso de manifiesto la necesidad de la búsqueda de nuevas fuentes y la apuesta por los recursos hídricos no convencionales (desalinización y aguas regeneradas depuradas); y 2) Cambio del antiguo paradigma hidráulico basado en el incremento de la oferta mediante las transferencias de aguas. El objetivo de esta investigación es analizar el rol que ha desempeña…
Revisión taxonómica de Helix zapateri Hidalgo, 1870 (Pulmonata: Trissexodontidae) y su nuevo estatus en la malacofauna ibérica
2008
Alberto Martínez Ortí: alberto.martinez@uv.es Revisión taxonómica de Helix zapateri Hidalgo, 1870 (Pulmonata, Trissexodontidae) y su nuevo estatus en la malacofauna ibérica.— Se realiza la revisión taxonómica y se discute la nueva asignación genérica del taxon ibérico Helix zapateri, mediante la comparación de caracteres conquiológicos con las especies más similares, Hatumia pseudogasulli y Gasullia gasulli, ambas trissexodóntidos. Los estudios conquiológicos nos permiten concluir que Helix zapateri debe ser considerada como una especie válida y designarse como Hatumia zapateri, y que Hatumia pseudogasulli corresponde a un sinónimo posterior de H. zapateri. Taxonomical revision of Helix zap…

Fossil squirrels are relatively abundant in Aragonian and Ramblian assemblages, but very scarce in the Late Turolian and Ruscinian of the Iberian Peninsula. Until now, the locality of Venta del Mor...
Novedades taxonómicas y nomenclaturales para la flora valenciana, II
2010
Continuando con la actualización taxonómica y nomenclatural de la flora valenciana, se proponen diez combinaciones nuevas y un nombre nuevo para táxones y nototáxones que crecen en el Mediterráneo occidental. Además, se designa un epitipo para Sideritis × angustifolia Lag., híbrido sobre cuya identidad ha existido gran controversia, y un lectotipo para Globularia linifolia Lam. Del mismo modo, se discute la citación correcta del lugar y fecha de publicación de cuatro táxones más. Taxonomic and nomenclatural novelties concerning the Valencian flora (eastern Spain), II: As a part of the taxonomical and nomenclatural update of vascular flora of the Valencian Community, ten new combinations and…
Fare rotta verso nuove terre: la diaspora greco-albanese della prima età moderna
2021
The contribution aims to frame the diasporic phenomenon of the 15th-16th centuries of the Balkan populations from areas roughly corresponding today to Albania and Greece, reading it according to a plurality of levels and intertwining that characterize the Mediterranean modern age history. Specifically, the paper summarizes the most recent reflections on the subject and focuses on the reasons that triggered the migration flows and on the historiographical narration over the centuries.
Interazioni tra migranti e popolazioni locali nella Sicilia centrale del IV sec. a.C.
2017
The contribution concern the hinterland of Sicily in the 4th century BC, particularly the part delimited by the rivers Halykos and Himeras, inhabited by the Sicans since prehistoric times. The few testimonies of the historical sources about this population of anellenic origin for the given period are compared to the news derived from the analysis of numismatic documents found in the territory in the contest of 4th century BC. The analysis will allow to take account of the prevailing conservatism of these communities, despite interactions with the peninsular groups established in this part of the island in the second half of the 4th century a.C.
