Ongoing Evolution in the Genus Crocus: Diversity of Flowering Strategies on the Way to Hysteranthy
2021
[EN] Species of the genus Crocus are found over a wide range of climatic areas. In natural habitats, these geophytes diverge in the flowering strategies. This variability was assessed by analyzing the flowering traits of the Spanish collection of wild crocuses, preserved in the Bank of Plant Germplasm of Cuenca. Plants of the seven Spanish species were analyzed both in their natural environments (58 native populations) and in common garden experiments (112 accessions). Differences among species observed in the native habitats were maintained under uniform environmental conditions, suggesting a genetic basis for flowering mechanisms. Two eco-morphological types, autumn- and spring-flowering …
Food healthy knowledge, attitudes and practices: Survey of the general public and food handlers
2017
AbstractModifying the energy content of foods, particularly foods eaten away from home, is important in addressing the obesity epidemic. Food handlers in the restaurant industry are uniquely placed to influence the provision of reduced-calorie foods, but little is known about their opinions on this issue. The objectives of the present study were to determine the general public and food handlers׳ knowledge and opinions, issues and barriers related to providing these items on the menu, and about the influence of the calorie content of restaurant items on customer intake. The food handlers surveyed had a significantly lower food science knowledge score than the general public. There was signif…
Towards more sustainable food systems. Addressing food waste at school canteens
2018
Food Waste is a global significant issue for ethical, environmental and economic reasons, while its management is difficult due to its frequent low visibility. Individual choices and preferences are closely related to the generation of food waste although likely to be modified through education and awareness campaigns. In particular, school canteens are big generators of food waste and, at the same time, provide a great opportunity to improve habits regarding nutrition and education on sustainability, thus impacting the future of the food system. The end purpose of this research is identifying the causes of food waste and unveiling best practices towards its reduction. To achieve this goal,…
Pasta experience: Eating with the five senses - a pilot study
2018
Dried pasta is the Italian food “par excellence”. Traditional foods have characteristics that can stimulate or evoke in the consumer sensorial stimuli and experiences, especially when these foods are consumed in a typical-traditional restaurant. Traditional restaurants can use sensory marketing as a promotional advantage, creating a unique and original atmosphere that can represent their main way of differentiation. The aims of this paper are to know consumer liking with regard to two high quality types of Sicilian pasta, common dried pasta, and whole-wheat pasta, consumed in three different venues of a typical-traditional Italian franchised restaurant, and to measure the influence of envir…

A Tool to Assess Architectural Education from the Sustainable Development Perspective and the Students' Viewpoint
2021
[EN] Architectural education plays a fundamental role in achieving sustainable development by training future professionals who can contribute to sustainability through their practice. Nevertheless, to ensure the introduction of sustainable development in the education of future architects, it is fundamental to understand what is being done and what could be improved. Despite this, a big gap has been detected in the assessment of architectural education in Spain and worldwide. Thus, a close-ended questionnaire for students has been designed based on the outcomes from a literature review, exploratory interviews with specialists, and the qualitative analysis of two schools of architecture. Ad…

In assenza di intervento. Rappresentazioni digitali di restauri virtuali
2015
La simulazione della realtà attraverso le tecniche di rappresentazione digitale viene oggi in aiuto dei restauratori poiché consente loro di verificare l’impatto di un restauro ancor prima di intervenire. Ciò può contribuire a evitare interventi troppo invasivi e a contenere errate pratiche che, a volte, irrimediabilmente cancellano le tracce originali. Il saggio analizza alcune esperienze di ricerca sull’illuminazione nei modelli virtuali che sono emblematiche di un approccio possibile. Le ricostruzioni tridimensionali digitali analizzate forniscono non solo le informazioni spaziali e dimensionali ma anche gli aspetti cromatici e le caratteristiche di illuminazione di un’architettura. Lo s…
Justicia restaurativa: su aplicación en los delitos de terrorismo cometidos por el movimiento separatista en Patani, Tailandia
2020
La situación actual de violencia en Patani, Tailandia es tanto una consecuencia de la conflagración histórica como un resultado del fracaso de la Administración pública. Se trata a la vez de un terrorismo separatista y de un conflicto armado. Sin embargo, la solución del problema por la vía política y pacífica parece ser más eficaz que por la represión e imposición estricta de las leyes penales excepcionales. La justicia restaurativa es una herramienta jurídica que puede aplicarse en los casos de terrorismo en Patani para superar el conflicto y lograr la reconciliación social. Además, puede desempeñar un papel importante en el proceso de consolidación de la paz y garantizar una transición f…
