Monitoring Water and Energy Cycles at Climate Scale in the Third Pole Environment (CLIMATE-TPE)

2021

A better understanding of the water and energy cycles at climate scale in the Third Pole Environment is essential for assessing and understanding the causes of changes in the cryosphere and hydrosphere in relation to changes of plateau atmosphere in the Asian monsoon system and for predicting the possible changes in water resources in South and East Asia. This paper reports the following results: (1) A platform of in situ observation stations is briefly described for quantifying the interactions in hydrosphere-pedosphere-atmosphere-cryosphere-biosphere over the Tibetan Plateau. (2) A multiyear in situ L-Band microwave radiometry of land surface processes is used to develop a new microwave r…

Data-driven Interactive Multiobjective Optimization : Challenges and a Generic Multi-agent Architecture

2020

In many decision making problems, a decision maker needs computer support in finding a good compromise between multiple conflicting objectives that need to be optimized simultaneously. Interactive multiobjective optimization methods have a lot of potential for solving such problems. However, the growth of complexity in problem formulations and the abundance of data bring new challenges to be addressed by decision makers and method developers. On the other hand, advances in the field of artificial intelligence provide opportunities in this respect. We identify challenges and propose directions of addressing them in interactive multiobjective optimization methods with the help of multiple int…

Would you fancy a premium five o’clock after the funeral? Application of Terror Management Theory in daily shopping decisions

2018

The present study has investigated how fear-of-death activation affected consumer food product choices. Undergraduate students (N = 130; Mage = 22.7; Meage = 21) differing on the conscious fear of death level participated in this study. The participants were divided into two experimental and one control groups. In first experimental group fear of death was induced by asking the participants to read an euthanasia story, in second experimental group by asking them to picture their own death. All experimental groups filled a fear of death personality measure prior to the experiment. Afterwards, participants had to indicate their usual shopping preferences, by choosing between several standard …

Educare alla democrazia cosmica per un mondo di pace. La lezione di Ernesto Balducci

2022

Nel secondo Novecento Ernesto Balducci (1922-1992) elaborava l’idea di una democrazia planetaria nell’orizzonte del suo progetto pedagogico di un nuovo umanesimo. Si trattava di rispondere alla crisi che già segnava le democrazie occidentali, dove la violenza e lo scontro con “l’altro” prevalevano sul dialogo e sul bene comune. L’educazione a una democrazia sostanziale non può realizzarsi – è questa la lezione attuale di Balducci – se non come educazione alla pace e al dialogo interreligioso, entrambi orientati verso un “ecumenismo creaturale” che non fa distinzione tra le persone ma trova sempre punti d’intesa che conducono oltre le ideologie, le credenze, le culture. Un mondo di pace può …

Tractaments eficaços i clínicament útils, en demències

2016

espanolLa poblacion envejecida esta aumentando en nuestra sociedad con el consiguiente incremento de las demencias y la inversion en la asistencia a esta poblacion. El presente estudio revisa la eficacia de las diversas intervenciones no farmacologicas sobre los sintomas cognitivos, conductuales y emocionales de la demencia. Los resultados muestran que diversas intervenciones dirigidas a los pacientes –estimulacion cognitiva, reminiscencia, validacion, estimulacion multisensorial, actividades recreativas, presencia simulada, higiene centrada en la persona y musicoterapia– tienen efectos en una o mas de las areas evaluadas. No obstante, no hay ninguna terapia que presente un efecto beneficio…

La psicoteràpia trnasforma la praxis moral?

2018

espanolEsta investigacion se inicio en el ano 2014 con el objetivo principal de conocer si los pacientes que realizan una psicoterapia cambian su praxis moral. Otros objetivos eran descubrir asociaciones significativas entre subgrupos de la muestra. La muestra se capto principalmente por internet. Los datos recogidos son: sociodemograficos; el cuestionario de personalidad MCMI y la evaluacion de unos dilemas eticos con respuestas dicotomicas y con una explicacion descriptiva. Los dilemas sedisenaron especificamente para la investigacion. El analisis se ha efectuado con herramientas cualitativas (Atlas.ti) y cuantitativas (SPSS) sobre una muestra valida de 85 sujetos, y con la hipotesis nula…

El primorriverismo valenciano: origen y funcionamiento de sus élites militares (1923-1930)

2020

El golpe de estado de Primo de Rivera en septiembre de 1923 supuso una importante división del ejército en la provincia de Valencia. Gran parte de los mandos castrenses provinciales y regionales apoyaron el pronunciamiento, pero acabaron enfrentados al capitán general de la región militar. Tras esta tensión inicial el dictador consiguió crear una red de oficiales afines que dirigieron las principales instituciones militares en Valencia. La disciplina y jerarquía del Ejército español se transmitía así a la administración valenciana mediante tácticas clientelistas.

Atención de la prensa a la situación de emergencia planetaria

2008

Este trabajo forma parte de una línea de investigación que desarrollamos en torno a la atención que la educación, tanto formal como no reglada, presta a la situación del mundo. Intentamos responder así a los llamamientos de Naciones Unidas a los educadores de todas las materias y niveles para que contribuyamos a la formación de una ciudadanía consciente de la situación de emergencia planetaria y preparada para participar en la toma de decisiones fundamentadas. Llamamientos que han culminado con el lanzamiento de una Década de la Educación por un Futuro Sostenible para el periodo 2005-2014. Centraremos aquí nuestra atención en el papel de los medios de comunicación en el logro de estos objet…

Liberal Governmentality and Urban Culture: Governing Differences and Diversity in the Policies of Helsinki and Sydney

2023

This article uses Michel Foucault’s understanding of police and liberalism to discuss the governance of diversity and differences, and how they appear as a regulatory form of power in urban cultural policy. The data consists of interviews conducted with policymakers in Helsinki and Sydney. The article asserts that the policing of cultural spaces of encounter at the city level is not limited to the regulatory practices and controls that produce a sense of safety and order for citizens in the city. This governance has great significance for representing excluded people and the socioeconomic identity of their neighborhoods. Finally, the use of language as a means of communication in cultural p…

Digital zenith camera for vertical deflection determination

2012

Recent accomplishments in advancement of accurate astrometric reference star catalogues, development of digital imaging technology, high accuracy tiltmeter technology, and geocentric coordinate availability provided by GNSS, have made possible accurate, fast and automated determination of vertical deflections using astrometric methods. Zenith cameras for this kind of measurements have been developed or are being developed by several research groups. The paper describes a research project by Institute of Geodesy and Geoinformation, intended to design a portable digital zenith camera for vertical deflection determination with 0.1” expected accuracy. Camera components are described, proposed d…
