CREATING A POSITIVE WORKING ENVIRONMENT FOR TEACHERS
2018
The purpose of the research paper is to study a positive working environment importance for teachers work satisfaction and the role of principal in improving working conditions. Whereas teacher profession is subject to different changes and reforms it makes the whole profession and teacher well-being an important subject to discuss.The research paper includes analysis of the theoretical material about physical environment as well as psychological (also called microclimate). Empirical part is based on teacher’s survey – 97 teachers from different schools in Riga were involved. The statements of survey have partially adopted from Teaching and Learning International Study TALIS 2013. The main …
Bene ordinata et eleganter picta. Kościół św. Jerzego w Gliwicach-Ostropie (1667-1719-2019). Monografia wydana z okazji 350. rocznicy budowy kościoła…
2019
Wieloautorska monografia, pod naukową redakcją ks. Piotra Góreckiego, powstała z okazji 350. rocznicy budowy murowano-drewnianego kościoła pw. św. Jerzego w Gliwicach-Ostropie oraz 300. rocznicy jego poświęcenia. Pod koniec prowadzonego przez ponad 10 lat kapitalnego remontu zdecydowano się, aby pozostawić trwały ślad nie tylko w strukturze zabytkowej odrestaurowanej budowli, ale także aby opublikować monografię książkową, zbierającą w jedną całość dotychczasową wiedzę o tym zabytkowym kościele: jego przeszłości i aktualnym stanie, jego historycznej konstrukcji i przechowywanej w nim lub też w Muzeum Diecezjalnym w Opolu zabytkowej substancji. Do napisania poszczególnych rozdziałów zaproszo…
A procedure to evaluate the indoor global quality by a sub objective-objective procedure
2013
This paper proposes two complementary procedures for assessing the indoor global comfort: the first one, prevalently objective, is based on the acquisition of microclimate measured data and computed subjective values; the second one, that is purely subjective, uses a questionnaire drawn from the ISO/DP 10551 Recommendation. An application to some lecture-halls is here showed

Are wide but selectively logged buffer strips better than narrow ones?
2020
The microclimate of streamside habitats are protected from the effects of logging with buffer strips of retained trees. However, these buffer strips are often narrow due to their financial loss. Wi...
Public and Private Economic Feasibility of Green Areas as a Passive Energy Measure: A Case Study in the Mediterranean City of Trapani in Southern Ita…
2022
Green infrastructure in urban environments provides a wide range of ecological, social, aesthetic, and health co-benefits. Urban plant covers in particular contribute to improved outdoor environmental conditions that, in turn, influence the energy behavior of buildings and their indoor thermo-hygrometric comfort performance. Within this context, this study illustrates a methodology aimed at verifying the economic feasibility of alternative types of green areas for public and private stakeholders, which are analyzed as passive energy measures. Therefore, our methodology integrates approaches from different disciplines and consists of a microclimatic analysis of different vegetation scenarios…
Effects of retrofit in public building schools provided by urban green infrastructure: a case study in southern Italy
2022
Post-pandemic financial efforts have been set by the EU Commission and European governments regarding the renovation of European building heritage. Building schools will be object of interest to be transformed in more resilient buildings through improvement building energy performance which guarantee environmental sustainability; the renovation of building school heritage in Italy aims to ease new students' learning process through adaptation and implementation of new didactic methodologies. In this study is described a multi-scale methodology adopted to evaluate both at urban scale and building scale different scenarios that adopt green infrastructure as vegetation and building integrated …

Predicting species richness of wood-inhabiting fungi, epiphytic bryophytes and lichens based on stand structure and indicator species

Maailmanlaajuinen monimuotoisuuden vähentyminen on ollut suuri huolenaihe jo useiden vuosikymmenten ajan. Lauhkeat lehtimetsät ovat yksi eniten ihmisen vaikutuksesta kärsineistä biomeista ja eteenkin vanhat, luonnontilaiset metsät ovat vähentyneet huolestuttavasti. Ilmaston ja maisemallisten tekijöiden lisäksi metsän historia, häiriödynamiikka, metsätalous ja ekologinen jatkuvuus vaikuttavat metsän rakenteelliseen monimuotoisuuteen ja näin ollen myös lajirunsauteen. Monet lajiryhmät ovat kuitenkin huonosti tunnettuja ja vaikeasti havaittavissa, eikä lopullisia syitä lajin häviämiseen alueelta pystytä varmasti sanomaan. Tutkimukseni tarkoitus oli selvittää, mitkä elementit metsän rakenteessa…
