A high resolution record of the last deglaciation in the southern Tyrrhenian Sea: environmental and climatic evolution.

2002

A multidisciplinary study was carried out on core C106 collected in the Salerno Gulf (southern Tyrrhenian Sea). Two tephra layers recovered in the core, N 18 O record of Globigerinoides ruber and Globigerina bulloides and seven 14 C calibrated ages provided the stratigraphic framework. The core sediments cover the last 28 kyr BP. Seismostratigraphic analysis of a high resolution acoustic profile, integrated by the dated core samples, allowed us to reconstruct the architecture and age of sedimentary bodies on the continental shelf. An integrated study based on different taxonomic groups (nannofossils, pteropods, foraminifera, and palynomorphs) provided palaeoclimatic trends, in agreement wit…

Conoscere da “outsider within”. L’ordine femminile delle emozioni

2018

Il saggio in oggetto propone una riflessione critica sulle gerarchie del sapere che si intersecano alle «strutture di genere» (Bourdieu 2009), e che hanno legittimato dispositivi, capacità e attitudini cognitivo-valutative gerarchizzate e androcentriche. Evidenzia come il pensiero al femminile abbia privilegiato forme del conoscere – come la sensazione, la percezione e la rappresentazione – che il pensiero dominante ha relegato nella fluidità sommersa delle attività inconsapevoli o illogiche. Riprende le teorie di alcune studiose tardo moderne e contemporanee - Edith Stein, Arlie Hochschild e Martha Nussbaum fra le altre - per evidenziarne le strategie di analisi e i temi portanti all’inter…

Re-thinking Nicholas J. Spykman : from historical sociology to balance of power

2020

This article examines Nicholas J. Spykman’s scholarship beyond geopolitics and International Relations (IR). Because his works have mainly been studied through these prisms, I argue that we have overlooked the most important underlying current of his work: historical sociology. As a result, the prevailing view of him is overtly narrow. When Spykman’s scholarly output is examined from the 1920s to 1940s, an entirely different view of Spykman emerges. Essentially, his fundamental understanding of world affairs derived from the German sociologist Georg Simmel’s theories. In the 1920s and 1930s, Spykman transmuted these underpinnings into IR that later in the 1940s guided his two major works: A…

Short-term effects of potassium fertilization on the hydraulic conductance of Laurus nobilis L.

2011

This study reports experimental evidence on the effect of short term potassium fertilization on potassium uptake, tissue concentration and hydraulic conductance of pot-grown laurel plants. Potassium uptake and loading into the xylem of laurel seedlings increased within 24 h from fertilization. Potassium was not accumulated in roots and leaves, but the [K+] of xylem sap was 80% higher in fertilized plants (+K) than in potassium starved plants (-K), likely as a result of recirculation between xylem and phloem. This increase in xylem sap [K+] resulted in a 45% increase in transpiration rate, a 30% increase in plant hydraulic conductance (Kplant) and a 120% increase in leaf specific conductivit…

Lihasten voimantuoton yhteys tasapainokontrolliin dynaamisessa tasapainohäiriössä nuorilla miehillä ja naisilla

2016

Poikkimäki, Pirjo (2016). Lihasten voimantuoton yhteys tasapainokontrolliin dynaamisessa tasapainohäiriössä nuorilla miehillä ja naisilla. Liikuntabiologian laitos, Jyväskylän yliopisto. Biomekaniikan Pro gradu -tutkielma, 71s. Tasapaino on oleellinen osa ihmisen jokapäiväistä arkea. Sen säilyttäminen on joko tiedostamatonta tai tiedostettua hermo-lihasjärjestelmän avulla tapahtuvaa kokonaisvaltaista toimintaa. Tasapaino kehittyy luonnollisesti yksilön kasvamisen myötä, toisaalta sen harjoittelu on ensiarvoisen tärkeää loukkaantumisten ehkäisemiseksi erityisesti ikääntyneillä. Tässä tutkimuksessa selvitettiin tasapainokontrollin yhteyttä lihasten voimantuottoon dynaamisessa tasapainohäiriös…

Brīvi dzīvojošo amēbu konstatēšana ūdensapgādes sistēmās, izmantojot kultivēšanas metodi un to saistība ar baktērijam

2016

Galvenais darba mērķis bija izolēt brīvi dzīvojošas amēbas no paraugiem, kas tika ņemti no ūdensapgādes sistēmas un izstrādāt kultivēšanas metodi uz piemērotas barotnes. Pec vairākiem dažādu barotņu un metožu izmēģinājumiem tika konstatēts, ka piemērotākā ir amēbu pirmskultivēšana uz E.coli baktērijam ar tālāko kultivāciju šķidrā barotnē, kur arī noteikta piemērotākā uzturvielu koncentrācija. Otrais mērķis bija izvērtēt sakarību starp amēbu klātbūtni un Legionella pneumophila baktērijām pētāmajos ūdens paraugos. Tika konstatēts, ka visos ūdens paraugos, no kuriem bija izolētas L. pneumophila baktērijas, bija konstatētas arī brīvi dzīvojošas amēbas. Tomēr atsevišķos gadījumos amēbas bija kon…

WhatsApp iconology: narratives on in-app photographic practices in (transnational) family communication

2023

Sharing photographs and photo-chatting are common practices in doing family at a distance. This study looks at the processes of the production and circulation of photographs within the family network, analysing participants’ narratives about their image-based communication in WhatsApp. The data was collected as an ethnographic enquiry into the digitally mediated (transnational) family communication of five Polish women and their children living in Finland. It consists of five auto-driven visual elicitation interviews with an interactive collage, three elicitation interviews, with the participant’s smartphone used for fast reference to their in-app chats, and one semi-structured interview. T…

The carabid Pterostichus melanarius uses chemical cues for opportunistic predation and saprophagy but not for finding healthy prey

2017

The sentinel prey method can quantify predation pressure in various habitats. Real prey is assumed to more realistically mimic the predator experience but the predator can rarely be identified. Artificial prey made of plasticine may lack real chemical cues, but provides information about predator identity. However, the relationship between predation pressure registered by artificial versus real prey is not clear. We tested the relative attractiveness of artificial caterpillars, and intact, wounded, or dead larvae of the cabbage moth (Mamestra brassicae) for the carabid predator Pterostichus melanarius Illiger (Coleoptera: Carabidae). P. melanarius adults were attracted to dead caterpillars …
