Fen peat in environmentally friendly technologies

2018

Abstract Using peat as an energy source is currently incompatible with Environmental Policy Strategy of Latvia and 2030 Climate and Energy Package of European Union. The European Commission is looking at cost-efficient ways to make European economy more climate-friendly and less energy consuming. Although, fen peat alongside raised bog peat is categorized as fossil fuel, it is not traditionally used as fuel or growth substrate or for any other significant purposes in reasonable amounts. Large areas of fens are neglected where fen peat is slowly mineralizing and emitting greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide and methane, that are ones of the main triggers for the Climate Change. Thus, to …

Large-scale drainage and breeding success in boreal forest grouse

2007

Summary 1 The breeding success of Finnish grouse has been in decline for decades. While it has been shown that fragmentation and modern forestry practices such as clear-cutting affect the viability of grouse populations, little is known about effects of large-scale drainage. The drainage network in Finland has increased dramatically during the past decades. By 1988, 6 million ha of bog ecosystems had been drained. This is likely to have had a profound direct and indirect effects on grouse productivity. Because ditches persist in time, large-scale drainage may therefore have strong potential for affecting the long-term breeding success of three forest grouse species in Finland. 2 Using a mix…

IL “DE PROFUNDIS” DEL GIUDICATO INTERNO

2017

Quel che è certo è che viene superato, attraverso il rinvio alla Corte di giustizia, il giudicato interno: infatti la Corte non è chiamata a giudicare su di esso e la sentenza che ne sortirà comporterà inevitabilmente il suo travolgimento, quale che sia la risposta al quesito posto dalla Sesta Sezione del Consiglio di Stato. È quindi cambiato, almeno nel momento in cui vi sia da applicare il diritto europeo, il ruolo dell’Adunanza plenaria, che non chiude più il processo innovativo giurisprudenziale e che non ne rappresenta così il punto di arrivo.

The endangered freshwater pearl mussel Margaritifera margaritifera shows adaptation to a local salmonid host in Finland

2022

1. The freshwater pearl mussel Margaritifera margaritifera (FPM) is an endangered unionid which has a glochidium larva that attaches to the gills of Atlantic salmon Salmo salar or brown trout S. trutta, although some FPM populations have been shown to exclusively attach to only one of these species. The origin of host fish populations may be crucial for conservation actions for this mussel species, but the relative suitability of local (sympatric) and non- local (allopatric) salmonid populations as the hosts for FPM has been studied only rarely. We hypothesised that FPM glochidia would show adaptation to local salmonid strains and, there-fore, that they would be more successful (abundant, l…

Joint Border of Ukraine and the European Union: Political and Legal Aspects of Cooperation in the Field of Integrated Border Management

2020

W artykule przeanalizowano polityczne i prawne aspekty oraz dynamikę stosunków Ukrainy z UE i jej państwami członkowskimi w zakresie zintegrowanego zarządzania granicami w celu usprawnienia współpracy międzyagencyjnej i międzynarodowej, ustanowienia wspólnej kontroli celnej i przejść granicznych, organizacji wspólnych patroli, zwiększenia bezpieczeństwa i otwartości granic państwowych oraz poprawy ich funkcji integracyjnej. Zbadano zagadnienia związane ze stworzeniem i modernizacją przejść granicznych, wprowadzaniem europejskich standardów ochrony granic, kontroli celnej i innych rodzajów kontroli na granicy państwowej Ukrainy i krajów UE. Zarysowano perspektywy przystąpienia Ukrainy do sys…

VERIFICA DELL’ATTECCHIMENTO DEGLI INNESTI-TALEA DI VITE DOPO LA FORZATURA MEDIANTE TECNICHE TERMOGRAFICHE E MECCANICHE

2016

Grafting is an important technique for getting good yields in plant multiplication. Understanding the success of the graft after the incubation room is important to the evaluation of the suitable grafting for the open field (nursery). Successful grafting in vines requires the development of a functional vascular system between the scion and the rootstock. The graft compatibility and its augmentation depend upon various natural factors like environment, weather, soil conditions and protective measures etc. The present study examines the capability of thermography, mechanical and electrical techniques to assess the graft quality and successful of Vitis vinifera after the incubation room. Afte…

The migration–tourism nexus in the EU28

2020

This study explores the nexus between tourism and migration on an intra-European scale over the period 2000–2015. Complex-network analysis and gravity models were the investigation methods preferred. For each year under study, we built two country-to-country networks to map and reveal the connections between states as shaped by migration stocks and tourism flows, respectively. Then, the main determinants of the correlation patterns between the two networks were investigated by several econometric analysis. Results point to a quite similar topological structure for the tourism and migration networks as well as to a significant and reciprocal direct influence between tourism and migration mo…

Intra-regional mobility of PhD students in the European Union : the outcomes of region-making policy?

2022

This paper examines the flow of intra-European Union (EU) students for doctoral (PhD) studies to identify reasons for differences in international student mobility and migration (ISM) among member states. Rather than conceptualising intra-EU PhD student ISM only through push–pull forces, we theorise the intra-EU PhD ISM is associated with relative levels of national resources or levels of capital. We investigate the intra-EU PhD ISM through dyadic country pairings allowing the use of Gravity models to estimate the effect of variables associated with stocks of capital ascribed to a country to the change in the number of PhD students. The findings of this study indicate while there is asymmet…
