Management of Cultural Landscapes: What Does this Mean in the Former Soviet Union? A Case Study from Latvia
2009
Concern about changing cultural landscapes has increased recently, with the advent of the European Landscape Convention placing signatory countries in a position of having to develop action for protecting and managing cultural landscapes. In countries of the former Soviet Union the landscape underwent many changes as a result of agricultural collectivisation and its aftermath. This situation has been analysed for six sample rural municipalities (pagasts) in Latvia, one of the three former Soviet countries to join the European Union (EU), using maps from the period 1901 to 1927 (to represent the ‘traditional landscape’) and 1997 orthophotographs updated to 2000 (to represent the ‘post-Soviet…
Search for relativistic magnetic monopoles with the ANTARES neutrino telescope
2012
Magnetic monopoles are predicted in various unified gauge models and could be produced at intermediate mass scales. Their detection in a neutrino telescope is facilitated by the large amount of light emitted compared to that from muons. This paper reports on a search for upgoing relativistic magnetic monopoles with the ANTARES neutrino telescope using a data set of 116 days of live time taken from December 2007 to December 2008. The one observed event is consistent with the expected atmospheric neutrino and muon background, leading to a 90% C.L. upper limit on the monopole flux between 1.3 ¿ 10¿17 and 8.9 ¿ 10¿17 cm¿2 s¿1 sr¿1 for monopoles with velocity ß ¿ 0.625.

Osservazioni sugli oneri probatori nella revocatoria delle rimesse su conto corrente bancario
2014
A partire da una recente pronuncia della Suprema Corte, il presente contributo si propone di offrire alcune osservazioni sul tema della revocatoria delle rimesse su conto corrente bancario, con specifico riguardo alla ripartizione degli oneri probatori. Il tema è affrontato alla luce delle peculiarità delle rimesse come atti di“pagamento”e dello status di creditore qualificato della banca, al fine di comprendere su chi gravi l’onere di provare la natura della rimessa e se, per il fatto stesso che il soggetto convenuto in revocatoria è una banca, l’onere di allegazione gravante sulla curatela debba intendersi alleggerito.
Microarray mRNA expression analysis of Fanconi anemia fibroblasts.
2007
Fanconi anemia (FA) cells are generally hypersensitive to DNA cross-linking agents, implying that mutations in the different <i>FANC</i> genes cause a similar DNA repair defect(s). By using a customized cDNA microarray chip for DNA repair- and cell cycle-associated genes, we identified three genes, cathepsin B (<i>CTSB</i>), glutaredoxin (<i>GLRX</i>), and polo-like kinase 2 (<i>PLK2</i>), that were misregulated in untreated primary fibroblasts from three unrelated FA-D2 patients, compared to six controls. Quantitative real-time RT PCR was used to validate these results and to study possible molecular links between FA-D2 and other FA subtypes.…
Choice between alternative investments in agriculture: The role of organic farming to avoid the abandonment of rural areas
2015
Abstract Sicily has a long tradition in citrus fruit cultivation that, with vineyard and olive tree, represents the main Mediterranean tree crops. Since many Sicilian farmers in recent years have decided to abandon conventional lemon orchards, in this paper we have evaluated the financial sustainability of organic lemon production by comparing it with the conventional one. Financial analysis has been carried out in a case study on the northwestern coast of Sicily, considering a 50-year economic life of an orchard. The results, per hectare of area, showed a clear advantage of organic lemon orchard. This was due to fewer labor requirements and to greater market appreciation for organic produc…
Sport@Future: Valoración biomecánica de un soporte plantar termoconformable durante la carrera en fatiga
2019
La carrera es una de las actividades físico-recreativas más populares, que sigue creciendo en participación año a año por el gran número de beneficios que reporta a la salud. Sin embargo, la incidencia anual de lesiones en sus practicantes también es elevada. En este sentido, los soportes plantares son una de las estrategias más utilizadas por los corredores/as como sistema de prevención y tratamiento de lesiones, pero también como mecanismo para la mejora del rendimiento. Con el auge de las nuevas tecnologías y de la industria del calzado y del equipamiento deportivo, se ha desarrollado un nuevo soporte plantar prefabricado con materiales termoconformables que permite al propio usuario ada…
The role of perspective on students’ use of multiple documents to solve an openended Task
2013
AbstractMcCrudden & Schraw (2007) show how students’ interaction with a text is mediated by the instructions they are presented with. Specifically, perspective instructions prompt readers to use background knowledge to evaluate text from an assigned point of view. Research on perspective in single texts has demonstrated that readers confer relevance on text segments that are consistent with the assigned perspective (Pichert & Anderson, 1977). This work has tested the effects of perspective when reading conflicting information from multiple documents to perform an open-ended task, as well as has studied if the trustworthiness of a source exerts any influence on students’ decision to use info…
Cold-Atom-Induced Control of an Optomechanical Device
2010
We consider a cavity with a vibrating end mirror and coupled to a Bose-Einstein condensate. The cavity field mediates the interplay between mirror and collective oscillations of the atomic density. We study the implications of this dynamics and the possibility of an indirect diagnostic. Our predictions can be observed in a realistic setup that is central to the current quest for mesoscopic quantumness.
La soluzione italiana alla crisi delle filiere agroalimentari: il decreto legge 19 marzo 2019, n. 27
2019
L’Autore affronta il tema della regolazione della filiera agroalimentare e dei tentativi di porre rimedio ai fallimenti del mercato . Analizzando i recenti interventi normativi in risposta alle gravi crisi del comparto lattiero-caseario, emergono difficoltà e incertezze del legislatore e del governo italiano nell’affrontare queste criticità, che sono legate all’assenza di un’adeguata regolazione di tipo contrattuale . Inadeguatezza che può essere affrontata e risolta puntando su di un mutamento di approccio e considerando che le relazioni contrattuali di filiera necessitano di interventi proporzionati, più efficaci ed efficienti, in grado di esaltare i momenti di autonomia contrattuale disc…
