Testing the Universal Soil Loss Equation-MB equation in plots in Central and South Italy
2019
Planning soil conservation strategies requires predictive techniques at event scale because a large percentage of soil loss over a long-time period is due to relatively few large storms. Considering runoff is expected to improve soil loss predictions and allows relation of the process-oriented approach with the empirical one, furthermore, the effects of detachment and transport on soil erosion processes can be distinguished by a runoff component. In this paper, the empirical model USLE-MB (USLE-M based), including a rainfall-runoff erosivity factor in which the event rainfall erosivity index EI30 of the Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) multiplies the runoff coefficient QR raised to an ex…
Applying the RUSLE and ISUM in the Tierra de Barros Vineyards (Extremadura, Spain) to Estimate Soil Mobilisation Rates
2020
Spain is one of the largest wine producers in the world, with Extremadura (south-west Spain) being its second-largest producing region after Castilla La Mancha. Within Extremadura, the most traditional and productive viticulture region is the Tierra de Barros, which boasts an annual production of 3×
Solidaridad y universalidad de los derechos
2019
Esta tesis aborda el principio de indivisibilidad entre la universalidad de los derechos y los deberes del ser humano apelando a un corolario: el deber de solidaridad. Para ello se analiza el sentido de la noción de solidaridad y la doble tensión en la que se mueve el concepto a través de la dicotomía público/privado y abierto/cerrado que la caracteriza, examinándose las dos dimensiones mutuamente condicionantes que lo componen: la ético-política y la jurídica. Ello nos permite examinar la problemática que encierra la configuración de la solidaridad como un valor jurídico, fuente de deberes también jurídicos, y ponderar la correspondencia entre dignidad, deberes y derechos. Así, primero se …
Universal Restrictions in Reading: What Do French Beginning Readers (Mis)perceive?
2020
International audience; Despite the many reports that consider statistical distribution to be vitally important in visual identification tasks in children, some recent studies suggest that children do not always rely on statistical properties to help them locate syllable boundaries. Indeed, sonority-a universal phonological element-might be a reliable source for syllable segmentation. More specifically, are children sensitive to a universal phonological sonority-based markedness continuum within the syllable boundaries for segmentation (e.g., from marked, illegal intervocalic clusters, "jr," to unmarked, legal intervocalic clusters, "rj"), and how does this sensitivity progress with reading…
Private health insurance in the universal public healthcare system: The role of healthcare provision in Finland
2023
Voluntary private health insurance (VPHI) has gained popularity in universal public healthcare systems. We studied how the local provision of healthcare services correlated with VPHI take-up in Finland. Nationwide register data from a Finnish insurance company was aggregated to the local level and augmented with high-quality data on public and private primary care providers’ geographical closeness and fees. We found that the sociodemographic characteristics explained the VPHI take-up more than public or private healthcare provision. The VPHI take-up was negatively associated with distance to the nearest private clinic, while the associations with distance to public health stations were stat…
Rola i znaczenie norm regionalnych w systemie norm prawa międzynarodowego publicznego
2017
Współczesne prawo międzynarodowe składa się między innymi, z prawa powszechnie obowiązującego i prawa regionalnego. Historycznie, normy prawa regionalnego są wcześniejsze i często były podstawą dla norm powszechnych. W prawie międzynarodowym obowiązują zasady, które bezwzględnie dotyczą zarówno norm w wymiarze powszechnym, jak i w wymiarze regionalnym. W Karcie Narodów Zjednoczonych dostrzeżono rolę i znaczenie norm regionalnych, z jednoczesnym zaznaczeniem niesprzeczności tych norm z postanowieniami wynikającymiz Karty Narodów Zjednoczonych.
On identification of bilingual lexical bundles for translation purposes : the case of an English-Polish comparable corpus of patient information leaf…
2018
Grounded in phraseology and corpus linguistics, this paper aims to explore the use of bilingual lexical bundles to improve the degree of naturalness and textual fit of translated texts. More specifically, this study attempts to identify lexical bundles, that is, recurrent sequences of 3–7 words with similar discursive functions in a purpose-designed comparable corpus of English and Polish patient information leaflets, with 100 text samples in each language. Because of cross-linguistic differences, we additionally apply a number of formal criteria in order to filter out the bundles in each subcorpus. The results show that bilingual lexical bundles with overlapping discourse functions in text…
Trauksme kā mediators universālo vērtību dimensiju saistībai ar pašcieņu
2021
Šī pētījuma mērķis bija izpētīt universālo vērtību dimensiju saistību ar pašcieņu un iekļaut trauksmi kā iespējamo mediātoru starp šiem mainīgajiem. Pētījumā piedalījās 244 respondenti vecumā no 18 – 87 gadiem (M = 39,33; SD = 13,96) no tiem 61% sieviešu un 39% vīriešu. Pētījums ir korelatīvi aprakstošs. Pētījumā izmantotas Švarca Portretu vērtību aptauja 21 (Portrait Values Questionnaire PVQ, Schwartz, 1992), Rozenberga pašcieņas aptauja (Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, Rosenberg,1965) un Trauksmes stāvokļa – iezīmes pašnovērtējuma anketa (“Self – Evaluation Questionaire”/STAI/, Spielberger, 1983). Analizējot pētījuma rezultātus parādās statistiski nozīmīga korelācija starp pašcieņu un uni…
Trynitarny wymiar komunijnej struktury Kościoła w ujęciu Josepha Ratzingera - Benedykta XVI
2015
The Church is a community that has its origin in God. He himself, being the relationship of Three Persons since the beginning of the world calls people to a relationship with him. This community has its fulfillment in the community initiated by the apostles, who following in the mission of Christ are preaching salvation in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The church, besides its spiritual, divine origin also has a temporal dimension expressed in its structure of the local Churches, hierarchy or the implemented mission. Even what in Church is most external and human has its trinitarian representation. The whole Church with all its elements is immersed in the trinitarian r…
Situational factors shape moral judgements in the trolley dilemma in Eastern, Southern and Western countries in a culturally diverse sample
2022
The study of moral judgements often centres on moral dilemmas in which options consistent with deontological perspectives (that is, emphasizing rules, individual rights and duties) are in conflict with options consistent with utilitarian judgements (that is, following the greater good based on consequences). Greene et al. (2009) showed that psychological and situational factors (for example, the intent of the agent or the presence of physical contact between the agent and the victim) can play an important role in moral dilemma judgements (for example, the trolley problem). Our knowledge is limited concerning both the universality of these effects outside the United States and the impact of …
