Dryland vegetation pattern dynamics driven by inertial effects and secondary seed dispersal
2022
This manuscript tackles the study of vegetation pattern dynamics driven by inertial effects and secondary seed dispersal. To achieve this goal, an hyperbolic extension of the classical parabolic Klausmeier model of vegetation, generally used to predict the formation of banded vegetation along the slopes of semiarid environments, has been here considered together with an additional advective term mimicking the downslope motion of seeds. Linear stability analyses have been carried out to inspect the dependence of the wave instability locus on the model parameters, with particular emphasis on the role played by inertial time and seed advection speed. Moreover, periodic travelling wave solution…
Walmoo klientu lojalitātes platformas pārvaldes paneļa izstrāde
2022
Kvalifikācijas darba ietvaros ir izstrādāts pārvaldes panelis “Walmoo” klientu lojalitātes platformai. Ar šīs lietotnes palīdzību var pārvaldīt platformā piereģistrētos kontus, to apmeklētājus, apskatīt platformas statistikas datus turpmākai analīzei, kā arī veidot, sūtīt un apskatīt rēķinus. Lietotne pieejama tikai vienam platformā piereģistrētam kontam, kurš ir identificēts kā platformas īpašnieks. Darba mērķis ir izstrādāt jaunu uzlabotu pārvaldes paneļa versiju jau esošajam nepabeigtajam risinājumam. Lietotne ir izstrādāta izmantojot ReactJS satvaru lietotāju saskarnēm ar programmēšanas valodu Typescript, NextJS satvaru, MUI lietotāju saskarnes bibliotēku. Kā arī lietotne ir savienota a…
On the occurrence of the silverstripe blaasop Lagocephalus sceleratus (Gmelin, 1789) along the Libyan coast
2012
Five individuals of Lagocephalus sceleratus were caught by trammel and gill nets off Ain Al Ghazala, Libya (approximately 32°09'N − 23°15'E) between 15 and 25 m depth in September 2010. Our findings represent the first record of this toxic species from Libya and provide further evidence of its occurrence along North African coasts.
Assessment of microplastics and other contaminants in marine vertebrates from the Western Mediterranean Sea
2023
Mediterranean marine biodiversity is under threat by pollution. For this reason, the main objective of this thesis was to analyse the presence of pollutants of concern in Mediterranean marine species. These studies are located in the Valencian Community (Spain), where we find loggerhead turtles, striped dolphins, and jewel lanternfish. Hence, we: 1. Analysed pesticides, heavy metals and phthalates in tissues of loggerhead turtles. 2. Studied microdebris present in beaches that are sporadically used as nesting grounds by loggerhead turtles. 3. Analysed striped dolphins# exposure to microplastics. 4. Quantified jewel lanternfish exposure to microplastics and tested their role as bioindicators…
Stranding patterns of the striped dolphin (Stenella coeruleoalba, Meyen 1833, Delphinidae) along the Sicilian coast (Mediterranean Sea)
2019
Along the coasts of Sicily, 73 striped dolphins strandings were recorded from 2013 to 2016. The specimens were collected at the Centro di Monitoraggio e Controllo per Tartarughe marine e Cetacei [Monitoring and Control Centre for Marine Turtles and Cetaceans] at the Istituto Zooprofilattico Sperimentale della Sicilia. Subsequent necropsies were performed to determine the cause of death. The date and stranding location were recorded for each specimen. Total body length, weight, sex, and other key biometric measurements were also recorded for fresh and moderately decomposed specimens. The individuals were divided into three life stage categories on the basis of total body length: (1) newborns…
