Yliopistojen kielikeskukset - monikielisyys ja muuttuvat toimintaympäristöt
2017
Koulutuksellisen tasavertaisuuden idean mukaisesti kielikeskusjärjestelmä on 1970-luvun lopulta mahdollistanut kaikille yliopisto-opiskelijoille opinnoissa tarvittavan ja työelämän kannalta oleellisen kielitaidon hankkimisen. Tarkastelemme tässä artikkelissamme, miltä tämä tasavertaisuus tänään näyttää ja miltä kielikeskusten tulevaisuus vaikuttaa suomalaisessa korkeakoulukentässä. Artikkelia varten keräsimme kirjoittamisen taustaksi ajatuksia eri yliopistojen kielikeskuksista. nonPeerReviewed
YK:n tulevaisuus Venäjän hyökättyä Ukrainaan
2022
Jo ennen Venäjän hyökkäystä Ukrainaan monenkeskisen yhteistyön ja YK:n katsottiin olevan kriisissä. Miten Ukrainan tilanne vaikuttaa YK:n rauhaa ja turvallisuutta ylläpitävään arkkitehtuuriin? nonPeerReviewed
Società in house e crisi d’impresa alla luce dell’art. 14 TUSP
2021
The article analyzes the content of Article 14 TUSP (i.e. the Italian Law on Publicly Owned Companies), affirming its applicability also to in-house companies. Particular attention is paid to the regulation of the recovery / restructuring plans mentioned therein and to the interrelationships existing between the latter and the similar (but different) institution of the “certified recovery plans” mentioned by the current Article 67, paragraph 3, lett. d), Bankruptcy Law. Further considerations are addressed to the possibility that theabovementioned recovery plan contemplates the sale of the public shareholdings held by the parent company in the in-house company. Finally, a concise concluding…
Measurement of Low Concentration of Nanosized Objects Suspended in a Liquid Medium
2018
The new optical scheme of refractometer with temperature stabilisation 10-2 °C is developed, which allows measuring a refractive index of the sample with accuracy not worse than 10-5; dependence of refraction index on concentration of SiO2 nanoparticles in liquid suspension is obtained within the framework of the research.
Assessment of Sentinel-2-MSI Atmospheric Correction Processors and In Situ Spectrometry Waters Quality Algorithms
2022
The validation of algorithms developed from in situ reflectance to estimate water quality variables has the challenge of atmospheric correction (AC) when applied to satellite images. Estimating water quality variables from satellite images requires an accurate estimation of remote sensing reflectances (Rrs) which vary according to the AC applied. Validation processes for both Rrs and water quality algorithms were carried out, relating the in situ Rrs (convoluted to Sentinel-2-MSI spectral response function) with the satellite Rrs coming from different ACs (C2RCC, C2X, C2XC, and Polymer), and also relating the in situ water quality variable data with estimated water quality variable values, …
Conservation of traditional rural biotopes in Finland : a social-ecological approach
2018
This research focuses on conservation of traditional rural biotopes, which are biodiverse meadows and wood-pastures that are dependent on management through grazing or mowing. These low-intensity management actions have become rare as a result of agricultural modernisation. I have utilised a social-ecological approach in order to seek for the most critical factors hindering conservation of traditional rural biotopes in Finland. I also explore practical solutions that have the potential to improve their conservation status. The coverage of traditional rural biotopes has faced severe habitat loss during the last 150 years. This has led to endangerment of several habitat types and species that…
Current agri-environmental policies dismiss varied perceptions and discourses on management of traditional rural biotopes
2017
Traditional rural biotopes (TRBs) are threatened habitats that host significant biodiversity and several ecosystem services, and depend on active management such as low-intensity grazing. The current study explores private landowners’ decision-making on TRB management and abandonment within a social-ecological system framework. We provide insight into supporting resilience of TRB systems in the face of agricultural modernization. Using a mixed methods approach with content analysis and Q analysis, we demonstrate that TRB management fosters cultural, biological, aesthetic, and utilitarian values. These are reflected in different ways through conservationist's, profit-oriented farmer's, lands…
Farming on the margins : Just transition and the resilience of peripheral farms
2022
Sustainability transition demands fundamental changes taking place at the farm system level. At the same time, many farms are operating on the verge of financial profitability, especially in geographically disadvantaged peripheral regions with a limited range of production opportunities. These observations raise concerns about the transition's justice aspects. Using the concept of resilience, we analysed farmers’ capacities for transformation in a peripheral context in Finland. The results from our farmer survey (n = 577) indicated that the regime exerts a strong cost-price squeeze on farmers, escaping of which is difficult also for farmers deliberately seeking new pathways beyond it. Due t…
Rakennusten koristemaalausten restaurointi
2017
Maisterin tutkielmassani tarkastelen koristemaalattujen rakennuspintojen restauroinnin ilmiötä ja sen kehittymistä nykyiseen muotoonsa. Rakennuspintojen restaurointi sisältää erilaisia toimia konservoinnista uusien osien toteuttamiseen sisältäen myös rekonstruoinnin. Tutkimuksen tavoitteena on selvittää, miten rakennussuojelun arvotaustan muodostuminen liittyy näihin restaurointitoimenpiteisiin ja miten rakennuspitojen restaurointi on muuttunut 1960-luvulta alkaen. Arvotaustan muodostumisen selvittämiseksi tutkin kulttuuriperinnön suojelua koskevia kansainvälisiä peruskirjoja, rakennussuojelun normeja ja niihin liittyvää kirjallisuutta. Empiirisen osan aineistona on pääkaupunkiseudulla toim…
Milieux professionnels et FASP médicale : de l’autre côté du miroir
2004
Le but de cette étude, est de mettre en lumière et d’analyser les relations entre les milieux professionnels de la médecine et la fiction à substrat professionnel (FASP). Il est convenu de dire que les medical thrillers, dont les caractéristiques principales en tant que sous-groupe générique de la FASP sont présentées ici, offrent un reflet plutôt fidèle du monde de la médecine. L’auteur montre l’intégration en profondeur du discours et des pratiques de la communauté médicale dans la trame paratextuelle, narrative et linguistique des romans à suspense à dominante médicale. Afin de mieux comprendre les relations entre l’environnement professionnel et l’œuvre de fiction, l’auteur présente les…
