Parametric uncertainty or hydrological changes?
2014
Abstract. The model calibration is the way of hydrologists for searching also a physical interpretation of complex interactions acting within a basin. Actually, it can be frequently noticed how model calibration performed on a given time-window may converge to a point in the parameter space that could be distant from another obtainable calibration of the model in the same basin but considering a different time window. Is that again parametric uncertainty or does the trajectory in the parametric space relate about to a slow hydrological basin change? This paper depicts a possible path for detecting changes' signatures in a streamflow time series. In particular, the paper seeks to draw a way …
Fruit Trees and Bushes as a Biodiversity Element in the “Górażdże” Quarry Reclaimed Areas
2019
The assumption of biological land reclamation in the forest direction is to introduce trees and shrubs on the reclaimed area so as to bring it as close as possible to the natural state based on the species characteristic for forest communities. While assessing the concept of biodiversity resulting from the naturalistic approach to the forest as a timeless good, it is necessary to take into account the diversity of plantings used and their multifunctionality. One of the functions is to designate crops for utility purposes, by creating a natural undergrowth, birdhouses, forest fringe plantings and enclaves of edible fruit plants. As part of the research, implementing the biodiversity of midfo…
F-Type Lectins: A highly diversified family of fucose-binding proteins with a unique sequence motif and structural fold, involved in self/non-self-re…
2017
The F-type lectin (FTL) family is one of the most recent to be identified and structurally characterized. Members of the FTL family are characterized by a fucose recognition domain [F-type lectin domain (FTLD)] that displays a novel jellyroll fold (“F-type” fold) and unique carbohydrate- and calcium-binding sequence motifs. This novel lectin family comprises widely distributed proteins exhibiting single, double, or greater multiples of the FTLD, either tandemly arrayed or combined with other structurally and functionally distinct domains, yielding lectin subunits of pleiotropic properties even within a single species. Furthermore, the extraordinary variability of FTL sequences (isoforms) th…
Molecular epidemiology of HIV-1 subtype B in the Basque Country (Spain)
2012
The goal of this work was to study the HIV-1 subtype B epidemic in the Basque Country (Spain). For this, we used HIV samples submitted for genotypic testing of anti-retroviral resistance mutations from 2005 until 2008. Consequently, 2115 HIV-1 sequences comprising protease and retrotranscriptase (PR/RT) coding regions were analyzed. HIV transmission groups were identified by phylogenetic analysis. The 10 largest such groups were subsequently subjected to Bayesian phylogenetic and coalescent reconstructions, using a relaxed molecular clock model. The results obtained show that these groups have been long-standing: most of them were originated in the late 70s or early 80s, and none after the …
Asymptotic expansions and causal representations through the loop-tree duality
2022
Large-scale particle physics experiments have provided a vast amount of high-quality data during the last decades. A leading role has been played by the Large Hadron Collider where the evaluation and analysis of its second run is currently still in progress while the third run is about to start, promising ever higher precision data of particle collisions and subsequent decays. The agreement between experimental observations and theoretical predictions using the Standard Model of Particle Physics is excellent. Indeed, this is a problem since there are currently few clues for how genuine shortcomings of the model can be overcome. New physics phenomena can appear either at higher energies, whi…
On the mathematical properties of multi-loop scattering amplitudes through the loop-tree duality
2023
El asombroso desarrollo de los experimentos de física de altas energías, como el Gran Colisionador de Hadrones del CERN, ha permitido obtener datos de gran calidad. El interés por comprender estos datos ha dado lugar a la necesidad de aumentar la precisión de las predicciones teóricas correspondientes. En esta tesis se desarrolla desde sus fundamentos matemáticos un método enfocado en cálculos de alta precisión denominado Loop-Tree Duality (dualidad lazo-árbol). Presentamos una clasificación de los diagramas de Feynman con respecto a su topología más que en el número de loops, en donde todas las clases topológicas pueden tener un número arbitrario L de loops y que se distinguen en su topolo…
From a causal representation of multiloop scattering amplitudes to quantum computing in the Loop-Tree Duality
2023
La teoría cúantica de campos con enfoque perturbativo ha logrado de manera exitosa proporcionar predicciones teóricas increíblemente precisas en física de altas energías. A pesar del desarrollo de diversas técnicas con el objetivo de incrementar la eficiencia de estos cálculos, algunos ingredientes continuan siendo un verdadero reto. Este es el caso de las amplitudes de dispersión con lazos múltiples, las cuales describen las fluctuaciones cuánticas en los procesos de dispersión a altas energías. La Dualidad Lazo-Árbol (LTD) es un método innovador, propuesto con el objetivo de afrontar estas dificultades abriendo las amplitudes de lazo a amplitudes conectadas de tipo árbol. En esta tesis pr…
Maschilità "sacrificate", maschilità "esibite" e maschilità "revansciste" nel sex work di strada
2022
Il presente articolo, approfondendo dei dati etnografici sul sex work maschile di strada raccolti dall'autore tra il 2011 e il 2018, intende evidenziare i significati attribuiti allo scambio sessuo-economico e delineare le relazioni gerarchiche che si definiscono per via della costruzione egemonica di genere e sessuale ma anche, inevitabilmente, per la corresponsione di una paga a seguito di una prestazione con l'obiettivo di identificare le modalità attraverso le quali si costruiscono modelli di maschilità situazionali e negoziate. L'analisi prova che la reputazione maschile deve essere costantemente preservata e dal momento che determina una sorta di rendita da posizionamento, essa è cost…
