Embryonic development of corkwing wrasse, Symphodus melops
2016
Master's thesis Aquatic Ecology BIO500 - University of Agder 2016 Eggs from corkwing wrasse, Symphodus melops were described, photographed and illustrated to characterise the embryonic development of this species. Egg development was divided into 8 stages from fertilisation until hatching with descriptions of key features for each stage. The rate of development in corkwing wrasse eggs at temperatures commonly found along the Norwegian coast (12, 15 and 18 C) was also investigated. The rate of development was faster at higher temperatures. Keywords: labridae, cleaner fish, embryonic development, corkwing wrasse
Conducting sensory analysis tests among the elderly

Presentazione
2016
Il volume raccoglie l’intero corpus dei disegni delle Collezione Basile, custoditi, conservati e catalogati presso il Dipartimento di Architettura. Contiene la presentazione di tutti i documenti riferibili alla stessa collezione e due saggi dedicati, rispettivamente, a Giovan Battista Filippo e a Ernesto Basile; un’ampia documentazione, con schedatura completa, degli archivi dei disegni, delle fotografie e dei libri; un’appendice che riguarda aspetti particolari delle varie attività dei progettisti (soprattutto di Ernesto), predisposta dai giovani ricercatori che hanno coadiuvato - per anni con entusiasmo e con abnegazione - all’ordinamento dell’archivio. Al di là del valore documentario e …
Predator mimicry, not conspicuousness, explains the efficacy of butterfly eyespots
2015
Large conspicuous eyespots on butterfly wings have been shown to deter predators. This has been traditionally explained by mimicry of vertebrate eyes, but recently the classic eye-mimicry hypothesis has been challenged. It is proposed that the conspicuousness of the eyespot, not mimicry, is what causes aversion due to sensory biases, neophobia or sensory overloads. We conducted an experiment to directly test whether the eye-mimicry or the conspicuousness hypothesis better explain eyespot efficacy. We used great tits ( Parus major ) as model predator, and tested their reaction towards animated images on a computer display. Birds were tested against images of butterflies without eyespots, wi…
"But sometimes it is fun and sometimes boring" : pupils who have learning disorders and their feelings towards English
2013
Vaikka oppimisvaikeuksia on tutkittu hyvinkin runsaasti erityisesti erityispedagogiikan alalla, on tutkimus jättänyt oppilaiden omat tunteet huomiotta, ja keskittynyt lähinnä oppimisvaikeuksien tunnistamiseen ja interventioon. Oppimisvaikeudet saattavat vaikuttaa merkittävästi oppilaiden tunteisiin tiettyjä oppiaineita kohtaan, mutta myös opettajilla, oppimateriaaleilla ja luokkatovereilla voi olla vaikutusta. Tunteiden tutkiminen on siis hyvin tärkeää, sillä opettajat voivat hyödyntää tuloksia opetuksen ja luokkatilanteiden kehittämisessä niin, että oppiminen olisi jokaiselle oppilaalle mahdollisimman mieluisa kokemus. Tutkielman tarkoituksena on selvittää, millaisia tunteita oppilailla, j…
Interplay between spin transition and gas sorption in compartmentalized coordination polymers
2019
El trabajo descrito en esta tesis se enmarca dentro de los polímeros de coordinación compartimentalizados. Los polímeros de coordinación son materiales híbridos orgánicos-inorgánicos formados por un metal rodeado por unos ligandos orgánicos unidos mediante enlace de coordinación y se pueden obtener estructuras que se extienden en una, dos o tres direcciones del espacio. Las infinitas posibilidades que existen debido a la gran variedad de metales disponibles y especialmente, a la posibilidad de sintetizar múltiples ligandos orgánicos permite diseñar químicamente materiales con propiedades “a la carta”, además de la posibilidad de presentar multifuncionalidad, esto es, la combinación de diver…
Dettagli d’autore. Dal disegno manuale dei grandi maestri a quello digitale delle Archistar
2019
Il presente saggio offre un momento di riflessione critica sul dettaglio architettonico indagandone le potenzialità espressive e comunicative quando restituisce la prima idea del progettista o quando, come elemento o componente, concorre alla struttura-zione e alla caratterizzazione dell’opera. Attraverso la letteratura di riferimento, l’uso diffuso delle tecnologie digitali e le più recenti ricerche sul tema, si approfondiranno i ruoli e le criticità che il dettaglio ha come interfaccia per la comprensione dell’intero sistema costruttivo e per la caratterizzazione delle architetture nel prossimo futuro This essay offers a moment of critical reflection on architectural detail by investigati…
Les plaques-boucles mérovingiennes ornées d'une croix encadrée par deux griffons : à propos d'une découverte faite à Fleurey-sur-Ouche (Côte-d'Or)
2010
The presentation of this copper alloy belt buckle decorated with a cross flanked by two griffons from Fleurey-sur- Ouche (Côte-d'Or), gives us the opportunity to review our knowledge of this type of buckle, the corpus of which has been recently enriched by new examples. Even though the fifteen known pieces can be categorized in the group D defined by the characteristic finds of the Burgundian kingdom, the iconographical theme remains quite diverse. Also, discoveries have been made all over this vast area, underlining the existence of several workshops, not only in the Jura put also in the Lauragais area.
