NEW FRAMES OF ARCHAEOMETRICAL DESCRIPTION OF SPINDLE WHORLS: A CASE STUDY OF THE LATE ENEOLITHIC SPINDLE WHORLS FROM THE 1C SITE IN GRÓDEK, DISTRICT …
2010
The essential role of yarn spinning in textile production is indisputable. In this context, spindle whorls, the basic spinning accessories that can be found in the archaeological record, are commonly discussed. Even though the importance of the technical specification of spindle whorls has been already recognized by some authors, their functional characteristics are usually limited to the basic parameters affecting their usage range (i.e., weight, diameter and height). And since the mass moment of inertia of spindle whorls is considered to be a salient index when discussing their technical variability, the descriptions are deficient. With this short study, we intend to implement further res…
Accretion disks around binary black holes of unequal mass: General relativistic MHD simulations of postdecoupling and merger
2014
We report results from simulations in general relativity of magnetized disks accreting onto merging black hole binaries, starting from relaxed disk initial data. The simulations feature an effective, rapid radiative cooling scheme as a limiting case of future treatments with radiative transfer. Here we evolve the systems after binary-disk decoupling through inspiral and merger, and analyze the dependence on the binary mass ratio with $q\ensuremath{\equiv}{m}_{\text{bh}}/{M}_{\mathrm{BH}}=1,1/2$, and $1/4$. We find that the luminosity associated with local cooling is larger than the luminosity associated with matter kinetic outflows, while the electromagnetic (Poynting) luminosity associated…

La capacidad de atención y el consumo transmedia
2015
Los relatos audiovisuales se encuentran inmersos en un profundo proceso de transformación. Las fórmulas narrativas convencionales se enfrentan al desafío (oportunidad) de lo transmediático. El presente artículo explora algunas claves de esta situación desde la perspectiva de la producción de contenidos, en un contexto de saturación comunicativa. El usuario de la comunicación dispone de un recurso muy escaso: su capacidad de atención. Lo audiovisual deberá afrontar esta dificultad a la hora de reinventarse. En un momento de abundancia de contenidos y de escaso tiempo para consumirlos, captar la atención del usuario será crucial para asegurar el éxito de una producción. Audio-visual transmedi…
Biogenic and biomass burning organic aerosol in a boreal forest at Hyytiälä, Finland, during HUMPPA-COPEC 2010
2013
Abstract. Submicron aerosol particles were collected during July and August 2010 in Hyytiälä, Finland, to determine the composition and sources of aerosol at that boreal forest site. Submicron particles were collected on Teflon filters and analyzed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy for organic functional groups (OFGs). Positive matrix factorization (PMF) was applied to aerosol mass spectrometry (AMS) measurements and FTIR spectra to identify summertime sources of submicron aerosol mass at the sampling site. The two largest sources of organic mass (OM) in particles identified at Hyytiälä were (1) biogenic aerosol from surrounding local forest and (2) biomass burning aerosol, …
The AeroCom evaluation and intercomparison of organic aerosol in global models
2014
This paper evaluates the current status of global modeling of the organic aerosol (OA) in the troposphere and analyzes the differences between models as well as between models and observations. Thirty-one global chemistry transport models (CTMs) and general circulation models (GCMs) have participated in this intercomparison, in the framework of AeroCom phase II. The simulation of OA varies greatly between models in terms of the magnitude of primary emissions, secondary OA (SOA) formation, the number of OA species used (2 to 62), the complexity of OA parameterizations (gas-particle partitioning, chemical aging, multiphase chemistry, aerosol microphysics), and the OA physical, chemical and op…
Influx of African biomass burning aerosol during the Amazonian dry season through layered transatlantic transport of black carbon-rich smoke
2020
Black carbon (BC) aerosols influence the Earth's atmosphere and climate, but their microphysical properties, spatiotemporal distribution, and long-range transport are not well constrained. This study presents airborne observations of the transatlantic transport of BC-rich African biomass burning (BB) smoke into the Amazon Basin using a Single Particle Soot Photometer (SP2) as well as several complementary techniques. We base our results on observations of aerosols and trace gases off the Brazilian coast onboard the HALO (High Altitude and LOng range) research aircraft during the ACRIDICON-CHUVA campaign in September 2014. During flight AC19 over land and ocean at the northeastern coastline …
Application of aerosol optical properties to estimate aerosol type from ground-based remote sensing observation at urban area of northeastern China
2015
Abstract Aerosol optical properties were derived from ground-based sunphotometer observations between 2009-2013 at three urban sites of Shenyang, Anshan, Fushun in northeastern China. The annual means for extinction aerosol optical depths (EAOD) at 500 nm were 0.57±0.38, 0.52±0.35, and 0.41±0.31 at Shenyang, Anshan, Fushun, respectively. The corresponding annual means for the extinction Angstrom exponents (EAE) computed for the wavelengths of 440 and 870 nm were 0.86±0.32, 0.86±0.34 and 0.91±0.35, respectively, indicating that urban area of Northeast China were affected by both coarse and fine particles. Hygroscopic growth in summer and incursions of dust aerosols in spring were evidently r…
METHODS USED IN AUDIENCE MEASUREMENT OF MASS MEDIA CHANNELS TYPES, RESULTS AND IMPACT
2015
In the present research I will analyze the reactions and opinions of the interviewed persons regarding the main methods used in audience measurement of mass media channels and also it will be analyzed the types, the results and the impact. At the same time, it is aimed at bringing in a connection between the results of audience surveys and the communication strategies developed by public and private companies. Thereby, I will use the interview as a qualitative research method, to confirm or infirm the hypothesis of the present research.
Representation of ASD in mass media: analysis of a generalist newspaper
2020
Los medios de comunicación influyen notablemente en sus consumidores, por lo que no son meros informadores, sino que también son creadores de opinión. Este hecho es relevante para el ámbito de la inclusión, en tanto que las necesidades específicas de apoyo educativo son también un tema tratado por los medios de comunicación. En el presente estudio se analizan los artículos que abordan la temática relacionada con el Trastorno del Espectro Autista (TEA) en el diario El País durante el año 2017. Los resultados del análisis de contenido de los artículos indican que el TEA fue un tema de interés en el año 2017. Los contenidos más recurrentes fueron las causas del TEA, frecuentemente desmintiendo…
