La investigación sobre manuales escolares de Geografía españoles: Análisis bibliométrico (1980-2019)
2020
espanolEl objetivo de esta investigacion es llevar a cabo un analisis bibliometrico sobre los trabajos que analizan los libros de texto de Geografia espanoles (1980-2019) atendiendo a: 1) Tendencia de los trabajos publicados; 2) Grado de internacionalizacion; 3) Tipo de contribucion; y 4) Principales tematicas de estudio y etapas educativas. Los principales resultados indican que la tendencia de los trabajos publicados ha experimentado un interes notable en la ultima decada, especialmente los relacionados con el Paisaje y Climatologia. En cuanto al tipo de contribucion, los articulos son los principales (51%) y, respecto al grado de internacionalizacion, los resultados ponen de manifiesto u…
Sharing-collaborative economy in tourism: A bibliometric analysis and perspectives for the post-pandemic era
2021
Sharing economy research has risen exponentially during the last 4 years. Although several theoretical revisions on this topic have been developed, a conceptual analysis based on bibliometric techniques and science mapping tools is lacking. Within this framework, this article has two aims: (i) to carry on a performance analysis to identify the outstanding themes and (ii) to visually present the scientific structure by topics of research in sharing-collaborative economy as well as its evolution to identify future directions. The resources in the Web of Science Citation Index were used. Intelligent techniques and, more specifically, the SciMAT tool (based on co-word analysis and h-index anal…
Clusters and Industrial Districts: Where is the Literature Going? Identifying Emerging Sub-Fields of Research
2015
[EN] The industrial district and cluster literature has generated an extraordinary quantity of articles, debates and topics for discussion, and encompasses one of the most vibrant lines of research in the field of economics, geography, management and related disciplines. The literature, however, is fairly fragmented. In this paper, “bibliometric” methods are used to analyse the cluster literature published between 1957 and 2014 in order to explore “prospective” research priorities through the method of “bibliographic coupling”. Beyond focusing on foundational works in the past, this approach shifts the focus away from the practice of analysing co-citations and seminal contributions to one o…
SOCIAL NETWORKS, BIG DATA AND TRANSPORT PLANNING
2016
[EN] The characteristics of people who are related or tied to each individual affects her activity-travel behavior. That influence is especially associated to social and recreational activities, which are increasingly important. Collecting high quality data from those social networks is very difficult using traditional travel surveys, because respondents are asked about their general social life, which is most demanding to remember that specific facts. On the other hand, currently there are different potential sources of transport data, which is characterized by the huge amount of information available, the velocity with it is obtained and the variety of format in which is presented. This s…
A discursive analysis of oppositional interpretations of the agro-food system: A case study of Latvia
2015
Abstract This article critically reflects on the literature that addresses the complexity of food systems, which is often caught in application of simplistic binary oppositions of local vs. global, short vs. long, sustainable vs. intensive, etc. It then goes on to show, through a case study analysis of food-system discourses in Latvia how the binary oppositions surrounding with food systems, are actually mobilised in a specific national context. Agro-food systems are often explained through binary opposing knowledge systems that, depending on the theoretical affiliation of the author, might be called frames, narratives or discourses. These powerful instruments are used to explain, and often…
Non-Enzymatic Water-Soluble Antioxidants Bioanalysis in Some Teas and Juices by PCL Method
2011
Non-enzymatic water-soluble antioxidants from different teas (black, green, peppermint), coffee, natural extract of rosemary and fruit juices (apple, grape, grapefruit, kiwifruit) were quantized by measuring their chemiluminescence in order to establish their power to protect the living beings from the free radicals. Among the samples high values of antioxidative capacity presents green tea (655 mmol AU) (AU=ascorbic units) and kiwi fruit juice (31 mmol AU). The maximum measuring times are less than 3 minutes. The sensivity of the photo-induced chemiluminescence (PCL) method was very high: nanomolar concentrations of non-enzymatic watwer-soluble antioxidative substances, as ascorbic acid un…
Diagnostic Performance of 68Ga-PSMA-11 Positron-emission-tomography/Computed-tomography in a Large Cohort of Patients with Biochemical Recurrence of …
2020
Gallium-68 (Ga) prostate-specific-membrane-antigen positron-emission-tomography/computed-tomography is a highly promising method for imaging primary and recurrent prostate cancer. These dual-modality imaging technologies enable whole-body functional and anatomical evaluation in a single session. This study investigated the performance of Ga-prostate-specific-membrane-antigen-11 positron-emission-tomography/computed-tomography for detecting prostate carcinoma in patients with rising prostate-specific-antigen after primary therapy. Six hundred sixty (660) patients with biochemical recurrence referred for positron-emission-tomography/computed-tomography with Ga-prostate-specific-membrane-antig…
Sustainable Urban Requalification: Circularity of Processes for a New Metabolism
2014
Through this paper we present the first results of a research combining the management problem of Municipal Solid Waste to the requalification of built environment. The goal of this research is to mitigate the vulnerability of territory and urban heritage and to transform a problem into opportunities. Above all, we have paid attention to several exemplifying cases of Italian territory: suburbs of large towns, historical centres, small centres (and, in particular, those with a strong historical connotation). Their features are, at the same time, restrictions and challenges for designing new compatible systems that can contribute to the requalification of urban landscape recovering spaces wit…
Optimization of acetate production from citrus wastewater fermentation
2021
Abstract Citrus wastewater is a sugar-rich waste stream suitable for the recovery of energy of material from its treatment. In this study, fermentation of citrus wastewater was carried out to assess the optimal conditions to maximize the bioconversion of the organic substrate into acetate. Unbalanced nutrient (C: N: P 200:0.1:0.1) enabled the highest acetate production. The presence of the particulate organic fraction enabled to obtain a higher acetate concentration regardless the initial COD concentration. Initial pH values higher than 5 did not cause substantial differences on the maximum bioconversion of COD into acetate in Trial 3, whereas pH lower than 5 hindered the hydrolysis process…
Retrieval and assessment of CO2 uptake by mediterranean ecosystems using remote sensing and
2014
Photosynthesis is a process by which carbon and energy enter ecosystems. The knowledge of where,when, and how carbon dioxide (CO2) is exchanged between terrestrial ecosystems and atmosphere is crucial to close the Earth's carbon budget and predict feedbacks in a likely warming climate. Gross photosynthesis (uptake of CO2) by vegetation is responsible for the gross primary production (GPP) of the ecosystem. Normally GPP refers to the sum of the photosynthesis by all leaves measured at the ecosystem scale. John Monteith proposed in 1972 a simple approach that has become the paradigm for understanding GPP. It considers GPP as proportional to the incident short wave radiation (PAR), the fractio…
