Global data on earthworm abundance, biomass, diversity and corresponding environmental properties
2021
Earthworms are an important soil taxon as ecosystem engineers, providing a variety of crucial ecosystem functions and services. Little is known about their diversity and distribution at large spatial scales, despite the availability of considerable amounts of local-scale data. Earthworm diversity data, obtained from the primary literature or provided directly by authors, were collated with information on site locations, including coordinates, habitat cover, and soil properties. Datasets were required, at a minimum, to include abundance or biomass of earthworms at a site. Where possible, site-level species lists were included, as well as the abundance and biomass of individual species and ec…
BioTIME: A database of biodiversity time series for the Anthropocene
2018
Abstract Motivation The BioTIME database contains raw data on species identities and abundances in ecological assemblages through time. These data enable users to calculate temporal trends in biodiversity within and amongst assemblages using a broad range of metrics. BioTIME is being developed as a community-led open-source database of biodiversity time series. Our goal is to accelerate and facilitate quantitative analysis of temporal patterns of biodiversity in the Anthropocene. Main types of variables included The database contains 8,777,413 species abundance records, from assemblages consistently sampled for a minimum of 2 years, which need not necessarily be consecutive. In addition, th…
Papildinātās realitātes asistētas montāžas risinājuma izstrāde
2022
Papildinātās realitātes risinājumi, līdz ar ierīču iespējām, paliek ar vien populārāki un uzlabotāki. Tādu lietotņu pielietojumi var būt dažādi, tai skaitā darba vidēm, ar mērķi apmācīt vai asistēt darbiniekus to ikdienā, ieekonomējot laiku un mentālo slodzi, kas tiek patērēti izmantojot rokasgrāmatu vai meklējot informāciju pamācību video klipos. Viens no tādiem pielietojumiem ir Papildinātās Realitātes asistēta montāža, lietotājam, ar ekrāna un sensoru palīdzību, 3D vidē parādot veicamos soļus detaļu samontēšanai kopā, nelietojot rokasgrāmatu. Maģistra darba ietvaros ir izstrādāts asistētas montāžas risinājums datora detaļu salikšanai mātesplatē. Ir arī izvirzīti pētāmie jautājumi un veik…

Una prospettiva storica e pedagogica sulle Lingue dei Segni: riflessioni psicolinguistiche
2021
Da oltre 50 anni, da quando W. Stokoe negli anni '60 individuò in USA i parametri di articolazione delle lingue dei Segni (cfr. Stokoe, 1981), si assiste ad un sempre maggiore interesse nei confronti delle lingue visivo-gestuali delle comunità di sordi, grazie anche agli sviluppi nel campo della psicolinguistica, delle neuroscienze, e delle nuove tecnologie che consentono indagini sul linguaggio e sul funzionamento cerebrale impensabili sino a qualche tempo fa. Può forse sorprendere che, in una prospettiva storica, all'interno del dibattito linguistico-filosofico si può riscontrare un analogo interesse per i sordi e le loro forme di comunicazione soltanto nella seconda metà del sec. XVIII e…
CD95 death-inducing signaling complex formation and internalization occur in lipid rafts of type I and type II cells
2004
We investigated the membrane localization of CD95 in type I and type II cells, which differ in their ability to recruit and activate caspase-8. We found that CD95 was preferentially located in lipid rafts of type I cells, while it was present both in raft and non-raft plasma membrane sub-domains of type II cells. After stimulation, CD95 located in phospholipid-rich plasma membrane was recruited to lipid rafts in both types of cells. Similarly, CD95 cross-linking resulted in caspase-independent translocation of FADD/MORT1 and caspase-8 to the lipid rafts, which was prevented by a death domain-defective receptor. CD95 internalization was then rapid in type I and delayed in type II cells and s…
Regalismo e inmunidad eclesiástica en la España del siglo XVIII: la resistencia del clero valenciano a la imposición del estanco del tabaco
2007
The charters abolition decree of the Kingdoms of Valencia and Aragon kept the traditional regulation on the jurisdiction and ecclesiastic immunity, and this exception was ratified in the Royal Order the 7th of September in 1707. As the members of this class thought that it was implying a reinforcement of their privileges, they presented an intense resistance to the imposition of the tobacco monopoly, which the monarchy considered as a «well-known royalty» inherent in its sovereignty. Initially, the opposition was assumed by the ecclesiastic hierarchy and it generated jurisdictional conflicts so serious that Philip V proceeded to the emission of dispositions in favour of his royal prerogativ…
Suppression of humoral immune response against herpes simplex virus induced by defective strains, ts- and TK- mutants.
1988
Suppression of humoral antibody formation against HSV is not only induced by replicating Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) but also by the defective strain ANG and the deletion mutant 1301 of Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1). Moreover, ts-mutants A, H, K, S, 1201 and 1208 of HSV-1 as well as some ts-mutants of HSV-2 and “defective-interfering” particles of HSV-1 after high multiplicity of infection-passages induced suppression. Treatment of infected mice with ACG reduced antibody-formation but did not result in suppression. UV-irradiation of the antibody producing strain Len of HSV-1 strongly reduces antibody formation and induces suppression. Experiments using a series of intertypic r…
Interpretación social y accesibilidad. Una propuesta de conexión disciplinar
2020
El objetivo de este estudio es ofrecer argumentos para entender la actividad propia de la interpretación social como parte del dominio genérico de la accesibilidad. Al hacerlo no ampliamos en realidad el concepto de accesibilidad, sino que reforzamos aquello que justifica el uso de este término, para diferenciar una parcela de actividad dentro de la práctica general de la traducción y la interpretación. Con el tema de la accesibilidad sucede que se ha manejado una etiqueta sin una delimitación conceptual previa de lo que se pretende designar por medio de ella. En este estudio nos ocupamos brevemente de esta tarea de aproximación conceptual, con el objetivo de incluir bajo el abanico de las …
Soil environmental conditions rather than denitrifier abundance and diversity drive potential denitrification after changes in land uses
2010
Land-use practices aiming at increasing agro-ecosystem sustainability, e.g. no-till systems and use of temporary grasslands, have been developed in cropping areas, but their environmental benefits could be counterbalanced by increased N2O emissions produced, in particular during denitrification. Modelling denitrification in this context is thus of major importance. However, to what extent can changes in denitrification be predicted by representing the denitrifying community as a black box, i.e. without an adequate representation of the biological characteristics (abundance and composition) of this community, remains unclear. We analysed the effect of changes in land uses on denitrifiers for…
