The effects of recreational Paracentrotus lividus fishing on distribution patterns of sea urchins at Ustica Island MPA (Western Mediterranean, Italy)
2006
This study evaluated the effects of recreational Paracentrotus lividus fishing on average density and size of this edible sea urchin, and its indirect effects on Arbacia lixula on barren substrates of Ustica Island MPA (SW Italy, Mediterranean Sea). Size, single and pooled species densities, density of large individuals (>40 mm long) and small individuals (<20 mm long) of the two species were estimated by scuba diving in autumn 2003, spring and summer 2004 at two sites impacted by P. lividus fishing (Punta Cavazzi and Pagliaro, take zone C) and one control (Cala Sidoti, no take zone). Two samplings were performed in each season. We found that reduced densities of P. lividus and A. lixula oc…
Secretaries of educational centers’ satisfaction
2003
The primary target to study in this article is the level of satisfaction of the secretaries who exercise their professional activities in the Region of Andalusia. The article is structured in two very defined parts. The first part is a review of the written material relevant to the level of satisfaction in the labor and educative atmosphere, as well as the current situations the administration of the public school are going through and the consequences derived from the application of the different laws, specifically the LODE, LOPEGCD and LOCE. The second part presents the research in itself. The experimental design is described, in which different methodologic options are combined: descr…
The essential oil composition of Centaurea immanuelis-loewii Degen growing wild in Bulgaria and chemotaxonomy of section Acrocentron
2021
In the present study, the chemical composition of the essential oil from aerial parts of the Balkan endemic, Centaurea immanuelis-loewii Degen (sect. Acrocentron, Asteraceae), collected in Bulgaria was evaluated by GC-MS. The main components of the oil were β-caryophyllene (23.2%), germacrene D (13.7%) and caryophyllene oxide (12.4%). Furthermore, a complete literature review on the composition of the essential oils of all the other taxa of Centaurea, belonging to section Acrocentron, studied so far, was performed and the chemotaxonomical variations in the composition of the essential oils is discussed.

Time-Frequency Filtering for Seismic Waves Clustering
2014
This paper introduces a new technique for clustering seismic events based on processing, in time-frequency domain, the waveforms recorded by seismographs. The detection of clusters of waveforms is performed by a k-means like algorithm which analyzes, at each iteration, the time-frequency content of the signals in order to optimally remove the non discriminant components which should compromise the grouping of waveforms. This step is followed by the allocation and by the computation of the cluster centroids on the basis of the filtered signals. The effectiveness of the method is shown on a real dataset of seismic waveforms.

Sequence analysis of the rDNA spacer of Paracentrotus lividus and observations about pre-rRNA processing. NTS sequence of Paracentrotus lividus rDNA.
1993
We have isolated and sequenced one intergenic region and a small part of the flanking regions (18S and 26S rRNA coding regions) of the rRNA-encoding genes (rDNA) from the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus. This region is about 3.8 Kb long. Northern blot hybridizations and S1 mapping experiments demonstrated the presence of a partially processed 21S rRNA precursor while has the same 5' terminus as the 32S primary precursor, also in developmental stages characterized by a low rate of rRNA synthesis.
Serveis de la Dependencia
2020
El present document descriu els serveis del sistema para la autonomía y atenció a la dependència a Espanya, detallant les característiques i prestacions que es desenvolupen des dels serveis de prevenció i promoció de l'autonomia personal així com els d'atenció a les situacions de dependèncika segons el grau de la mateixa. This paper describes the services of the system for autonomy and care for dependence in Spain, detailing the features and benefits that are developed from the services of prevention and promotion of personal autonomy as well as care for situations of dependence, according to the degree of the dependency.
Detection and Isolation of Switches in Point Clouds of the German Railway Network
2015
In order to obtain an automated system of railway management, it is necessary to automatically detect, isolate and identify all switches in a point cloud which represents the railway. To realize this automated system of detection, a set of pre-processing steps is applied. The system begins by detecting and isolating tracks through application of a mask on each section of the point cloud. Then, it does a denoising through mathematical morphology and a compression in replacing a group of points by their centroid. Finally, it closes tracks holes through extrapolation. After that, the system does a low-level processing to search for all intersections between tracks, and records information on t…
