Las medidas restrictivas de la Unión Europea y su incidencia en los Derechos Humanos. Estudio del caso de Irán
2020
La presente tesis doctoral tiene por objeto el estudio de las medidas restrictivas que impone la Unión Europea (UE) contra individuos y entidades. Este instrumento es el reflejo de la evolución de la práctica internacional en materia de sanciones. Durante la década de 1990, conocida como la década de las sanciones, el recurso a medidas coercitivas unilaterales experimentó un notable incremento. Las graves consecuencias humanitarias que su adopción provocó en la población civil derivaron en una evolución hacia el concepto de sanción inteligente. Se pasó de las sanciones generales a los regímenes de medidas restrictivas de carácter selectivo en pro del respeto a los derechos humanos. No obsta…
Le nomine parlamentari: procedure ed equilibri di genere
2022
La presente ricerca mira ad analizzare, secondo una prospettiva comparata, i meccanismi gender balanced, eventualmente presenti, nelle procedure di nomina delle cariche pubbliche, di competenza parlamentare. Lo studio ha riguardato l’analisi delle modalità di nomina di Authorities, Corti costituzionali e organi di autogoverno della magistratura degli ordinamenti europei singolarmente analizzati nei precedenti capitoli della presente opera. La comparazione ha evidenziato soluzioni eterogenee, come il ricorso a meccanismi di quote percentuali o l’affermazione di misure di soft law. Fine ultimo della ricerca è stata l’individuazione di possibili interventi che potrebbero effettuarsi nell’ordin…
Genome-wide association study and mouse expression data identify a highly conserved 32 kb intergenic region between WNT3 and WNT9b as possible suscep…

Item does not contain fulltext Bladder exstrophy-epispadias complex (BEEC), the severe end of the urorectal malformation spectrum, has a profound impact on continence as well as sexual and renal functions. It is widely accepted that for the majority of cases the genetic basis appears to be multifactorial. Here, we report the first study which utilizes genome-wide association methods to analyze a cohort comprising patients presenting the most common BEEC form, classic bladder exstrophy (CBE), to identify common variation associated with risk for isolated CBE. We employed discovery and follow-up samples comprising 218 cases/865 controls and 78 trios in total, all of European descent. Our disc…
The role of eutrophication reduction of two small man-made Mediterranean lagoons in the context of a broader remediation system: Effects on water qua…
2013
In order to meet the requirements of the European Union Water Framework Directive for the Albufera de Valencia (AV) Natural Park, in 2009, several areas of free water surface constructed wetlands (FWSCWs) planted with emergent vegetation and two small shallow lagoons planted with submerged macrophytes were created over a 40-ha area formerly occupied by rice fields. This area is currently a reserve known as Tancat de la Pipa. The dual goal of this programme was to improve the quality of the hyper-eutrophicated waters of the AV lagoon, the largest littoral lagoon in the Iberian Peninsula, and to restore former lost habitats to increase the biodiversity of the area. The lagoons were mainly fed…
Joint Methodology for the Identification and Assessment of Groundwater Dependent Terrestrial Ecosystems in Estonia and Latvia
2020
Dynamic interactions between ground- and surface water are widely known, but the role of groundwater in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems is often poorly understood and documented due to the spatiotemporal complexity. Many countries have not yet completed the assessment of groundwater dependent ecosystems (GDEs). GDEs are valuable ecosystems that depend on groundwater input and can not be considered and assessed separately. Changes in the quantity and chemical composition of groundwater recharge may result in significant and permanent damage on GDE flora and fauna. Aquifers are dynamic systems which are not subject to administrative boundaries and borders, therefore should be managed in cl…
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 …
Soil geography and diversity of the European biogeographical regions
2013
For decades, soil geography has beenmainly a qualitative and descriptive discipline. There are nowtechnologies and mathematical tools available that allow formalizing soil geography in more quantitative terms. In this paper, the distribution and diversity of the soils of Europe are analyzed using GIS tools and pedodiversity algorithms. Soil data were taken from the European Soil Database (V2.0) and computed within the spatial framework of the Biogeographical Regions of Europe (BGRE) as defined by the European Environmental Agency (EEA) on the basis of climate and vegetation. The results obtained show the soil assemblages, including dominant soils and endemic and non-endemic soil minorities,…
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.
Recenti orientamenti della Corte europea dei diritti dell’uomo sui diritti dei richiedenti asilo
2021
Negli ultimi anni il numero di casi trattati dalla Corte europea dei diritti dell’uomo (d’ora in poi anche semplicemente Corte) su tematiche legate ai fenomeni migratori e, più in particolare, alla protezione dei richiedenti asilo è aumentato in modo esponenziale, così come altrettanto significativa è la crescita dell’attenzione che a tali temi dedica la dottrina. Scopo del presente contributo non è ricostruire gli sviluppi di questa giurisprudenza nei dettagli o elaborare una sorta di “guida” alla lettura di quest’ultima , ma piuttosto soffermarsi su alcuni orientamenti assunti dalla Corte in rapporto a tematiche che negli ultimi anni hanno acquisito particolare importanza. Il tratto più n…
