Landslides and gully slope erosion on the banks of the Gauja River between the towns of Sigulda and Līgatne
2013
This study examines contemporary and past slope erosion processes in the Gauja River valley and adjoining area between the towns of Sigulda and Līgatne. In the field survey landslides and gullies were mapped. Spatial landslide and gully data were correlated with the landslide- and gully-related features (local relief, slope lithology, slope form, slope angle and density of gullies). A novel approach was applied to establish the relationships between slope processes and factors influencing them. This approach uses correlation between raster values of landslide-related factors in specific slope sections and the number of slope processes in these sections to determine the areas prone to slope …
Tell el-'Abd II. Pottery and Potmarks at an Early Urban Settlement of the Middle Euphrates River Valley, Syria. Final Reports of the Syrian-German ex…
2013
The monograph investigates the breakdown of the Uruk world-system towards the end of the 4th millennium BCE, and the roots of secondary state formation in the Middle Euphrates region through the analysis of continuity and change in the Early Bronze ceramic material from the site of Tell el-‘Abd (Tabqa Dam, Syria). This analysis fills a chronological gap for the early third millennium, a period poorly known in the district downstream from Carchemish. It further includes the study of over 1300 potter’s marks, thus offering new insight into the intra- and inter-site organization of pottery production and into a complex and variegated system of visual communication active at a regional level be…
Zbiorowiska roślinne doliny Czerwonej Wody w Parku Narodowym Gór Stołowych
2018
The Czerwona Woda River is the main watercourse in the Stołowe Mountains National Park and drains the major part of the Stołowe Mts. It was regulated in the past, but its channel has been spontaneously naturalized. Now, managed spruce forests grow along almost the entire length of this small mountain stream. The aims of the present study were to investigate diversity of plant communities connected with the Czerwona Woda stream and to prepare detailed vegetation maps. The results obtained can potentially be a reference for future restoration projects implemented in the Stołowe Mountains National Park. As a result of vegetation mapping, there were distinguished 20 plant communities representa…
First report on the helminthfauna of the yellow-necked mouse, Apodemus flavicollis, in the Iberian Peninsula
2016
Summary Information about the prevalence of helminth parasites of the yellow-necked mouse, Apodemus flavicollis, in the Iberian Peninsula is almost non-existent and there is no reliable data reported from Spain. Fourteen A. flavicollis from the Erro River valley (Navarre, Spain) were examined for endoparasites, between February 2001 and July 2002. Thirteen specimens (92.9 %) of the total sample were parasitized by at least one of the following six helminth species: one trematode (Corrigia vitta), one cestode (Taenia parva larvae) and four nematodes (Trichuris muris, Calodium hepaticum, Heligmosomoides polygyrus and Syphacia stroma). This is the first report about the helminthfauna of A. fla…
Salt exploitation, communication routes and territory during the Iron Age around the Cabriel river valley
2020
La sal era un recurso fundamental en la economía de las sociedades antiguas y cada vez tenemos más datos sobre su aprovechamiento y explotación durante la Edad del Hierro en ámbito peninsular. La comarca de Requena-Utiel, en el interior de la provincia de Valencia, presenta la mayor abundancia de salinas continentales históricas del territorio valenciano. Por otro lado, en La Manchuela conquense se localiza la importante mina de sal de Minglanilla-La Pesquera. El hallazgo de material arqueológico ibérico en algunas de estas explotaciones sirve como punto de partida para analizar sus características y ver cómo pudieron quedar integradas en el patrón de asentamiento, así como en una densa red…
Ultrasonic nebulization inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry method for wine analysis
2020
Abstract A methodology was developed to determine mineral elements in wines using Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry combined with ultrasonic nebulization. The concentration of 36 elements (Al, B, Ba, Bi, Ca, Cd, Ce, Co, Cr, Dy, Er, Eu, Fe, Gd, K, La, Lu, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, Nd, Ni, Pb, Pr, Sb, Sc, Sm, Sr, Tb, Ti, Tm, V, Y, Yb, and Zn) was determined in 59 wine samples and used to distinguish between Brazilian and Spanish wines. The best conditions for the plasma were selected using a two-level factorial design: radiofrequency power 1500 W; plasma gas flow rate 15 L min−1; auxiliary 0.70 L min−1; and nebulizer 0.40 L min−1. An exploratory multivariate analysis by Principal…
Human responses to Younger Dryas in the Ebro valley and Mediterranean watershed (Eastern Spain)
2011
The archaeological and chronological records of the Ebro River valley and the Mediterranean watershed (Eastern Spain) are examined to evaluate the effects of the Younger Dryas (Greenland Stadial 1) on the foragers of an area between 36

Contatti culturali, identità e popolamento nel territorio imerese
2016
Il lavoro prende in considerazione il problema dei rapporti tra coloni greci e comunità indigene nel territorio di Himera, sulla base dei risultati della prospezione archeologica condotta per tre decenni nelle valli dei fiumi Imera settentrionale, Torto e S. Leonardo. Vengono esaminati gli elementi di cultura materiale che permettono di definire i modi dell'interazione culturale tra coloni e indigeni, nonché di ricostruire i paesaggi politici, socio-economici e il paesaggio del sacro nelle diverse aree indagate e nei diversi comprensori. La ricerca infatti permette di delineare, oltre alle usuali organizzazioni insediative e agricole della chora politiké e della éremos chora, anche articola…
