Estudio de métodos de limpieza sobre yeserías medievales
Authors: Vicar García Eva , Calero Castillo Ana Isabel , García Bueno Ana
Published: June 2021

El yeso ha sido empleado frecuentemente a lo largo de la historia en la elaboración de revestimientos arquitectónicos. Entre estos últimos destacan, por su belleza, las yeserías medievales. Este tipo de decoraciones suelen presentar importantes alteraciones respecto a su estado original, debido a la presencia de repolicromías y/o encalados. que ocultan la policromía original. Esta alteración puede acompañarse de pérdidas de policromía. En la actualidad, a esta problemática de conservación de las yeserías se une la escasez de estudios sobre tratamientos de limpieza específicos para estas obras con esta problemática de conservación. El trabajo que se presenta constituye una revisión de los métodos de limpieza a emplear en este tipo de obras, tanto (físicos cómo químicos). Se hace referencia al empleo de herramientas como el bisturí, o a la aplicación de empacos y geles elaborados a partir de polisacáridos complejos, ácidos acrílicos o éteres de celulosa y se describen las correspondientes pruebas de tratamientos realizadas sobre probetas. Los resultados obtenidos permiten establecer que el uso de geles, preparados a partir polisacáridos complejos y de éteres de celulosa, aplicados con disolventes como agua desionizada, acetona y alcohol, son eficaces para la limpieza de repolicromías realizadas al temple de cola animal sobre revestimientos de yeso.
Mantenimiento de las portadas de la catedral de Sevilla. Un ejemplo de intervención sostenible
Authors: Navarro Casas Jaime , García Martinez Elena , García Pérez Ángel Luis
Published: June 2021

En el período comprendido entre el año 1999 y el año 2006 el Instituto del Patrimonio Cultural de España (IPCE) dirigió la intervención de restauración de las portadas de Nacimiento, Bautismo, Palos y Campanilla de la Catedral de Sevilla, en cuyo proyecto se preveía un mantenimiento anual que debería ser asumido por el Cabildo Catedralicio. Este compromiso se ha materializado en veinte años de colaboración, fruto del trabajo conjunto de los técnicos de la catedral, la empresa Artyco y la supervisión y respaldo científico de los técnicos del IPCE. El presente artículo presenta las novedades acontecidas en el programa de mantenimiento en estos últimos cuatro años, consistentes, principalmente, en la incorporación de la portada de La Asunción, que ha supuesto un reto en cuanto a sus dimensiones, técnica de ejecución y materiales, así como la adecuación a la legislación medioambiental vigente que ha implicado la sustitución de productos utilizados hasta el momento.
Propuesta de una terminología apropiada para las impresiones digitales a partir de la identificación de sus materiales
Authors: Anthonisen-Añabeitia Iraia
Published: June 2021

La impresión digital en el ámbito artístico no se generaliza hasta finales del siglo XX, por lo que los materiales y las formas de creación pueden considerarse aún jóvenes aunque muy heterogéneas. Uno de los mayores problemas que presenta este tipo de obra es la inexistencia de una terminología precisa. Los procesos se clasifican y nombran de forma muy diversa, revelando una falta de criterios objetivos para su sistematización y generando una falta de comprensión de las técnicas empleadas. Conocer las tecnologías, tipos de tinta, soportes, tipos de acabado y sistemas de montaje ayuda a determinar con mayor precisión las técnicas empleadas, y mediante el uso de herramientas sencillas como lupas o microscopios ópticos es posible averiguar las particularidades que las distinguen. Partiendo de esta información, es posible crear definiciones más claras y concisas, ayudando a establecer las características diferenciadoras de las impresiones digitales y ponerlas en valor como procesos que reflejan la contemporaneidad.
Os desafios da conservação da arte pública no âmbito urbano: o caso da Fonte Monumental de São Paulo, Brasil
Authors: Andrade Tirello Regina , De Almeida Américo Alice
Published: June 2021

A cidade de São Paulo conforma território de múltiplos valores e vicissitudes decorrentes das alterações de uso dos espaços públicos, interferindo diretamente na conservação material de seu acervo de obras públicas. Compartilhando o espaço com outros elementos urbanos sempre renováveis, as obras artísticas, assim como a sua ambiência se atualizam para os fruidores; podem ser preservadas ou destruídas. Analisando o processo degradativo e as categorias de ação conservativa operadas na Fonte Monumental da Praça Júlio Mesquita (1927), da escultora Nicolina Vaz, esse artigo objetiva suscitar reflexões sobre a efetividade das operações de conservação física das esculturas públicas como ato desconectado da leitura das mudanças de uso dos espaços. Pesquisas arquivísticas, registros imagísticos e visitas de campo, corroboram a história conservativa da fonte, associando-a às alterações urbanas. Espera-se contribuir para a qualificação das discussões da necessidade de interação dos órgãos públicos em ações voltadas à preservação das praças e monumentos paulistas.

Incorporating Branded Academic Library Programming to Promote and Showcase Campus Research and Artistic Performances
Authors: Burris Christian , McCallum Carolyn , Keener Molly
Published: June 2021

Academic libraries play a crucial role in the scholarship cycle. In addition to serving as a traditional study space, a university's community depends on their libraries to acquire and provide access to resources to support the research and instruction interests of faculty and students. In these ways, academic libraries support the cyclical nature of scholarship by collecting resources that are themselves both the tools necessary for generating future scholarship, and the outputs of past scholarship. This article focuses on two successful library-sponsored programs at the Z. Smith Reynolds Library at Wake Forest University. Its Library Lecture Series, which promotes faculty research and scholarship, and its Senior Showcase, which celebrates senior undergraduates’ research, have become a part of the cyclical scholarship cycle. Library-hosted programming that draws attention to the broad array of scholarship created on university campuses offers and provides opportunities for strengthening academic libraries’ relationships with their faculty, staff, student, and community users.

Renaissance’s Accelerated Reader: Does It Really Work?
Authors: Bloomer Bridget Alexis
Published: June 2021

The school library is an open place for students to learn, imagine, and be free to research information of their choosing. Renaissance’s Accelerated Reader is a reading level-based program that assigns point values to books when students pass the quiz assigned to each book. Accelerated Reader unfortunately promotes censorship and invasion of privacy due to how the program is structured. This paper examines the flaws with Accelerated Reader to help examine if the program is beneficial to students. The American Association of School Librarians’ position statement will be used to help emphasize the point of the paper being that Accelerated Reader is inefficient. Collaboration between school librarians and teachers would be more beneficial instead of computerized reading level programs. Accelerated Reader’s structure unfortunately causes censorship of materials and invasion of privacy for children’s reading choices.

Recurrent implantation failure is represented by the failure to achieve a clinical pregnancy after transfer of at least 4 good-quality embryos in a minimum of 3 fresh or frozen cycles in a woman under the age of 40 years. One of the recent approaches in studying the window of implantation was building the expression profile of the genes of the endometrial cells. We performed a retrospective study which investigated if endometrial receptivity tests improved the outcomes of IVF procedures in patients with recurrent implantation failure. We enrolled 47 couples with RIF and divided them in 2 groups: the first group of 22 couples performed the ERA test and the embryo transfer according to the result of the test; the second group of 27 couples had the embryo transfer done without the ERA test. Our conclusion was that the ERA test did not improve the outcomes for patients with recurrent implantation failure.

Malnutrition continues to be a major issue concerning pediatric cystic fibrosis patients’ medical care. Supplementary diagnostic association with food allergy in a cystic fibrosis patient leads to worse nutritional status decline. This particular association determines low quality of life and life expectance impairment. Low caloric intake, recurrent pulmonary infections, maldigestion and malabsorption, low treatment adherence, genetic susceptibility and chronic infections are all risk factors and/or causes of malnutrition in cystic fibrosis patients. The aim of our study was to evaluate the prevalence of IgE mediated food allergies in cystic fibrosis patients. A secondary objective was to assess nutritional status in cystic fibrosis patients with food allergies after exclusion diet. In order to accomplish our objectives, we conducted a descriptive, retrospective study on a 68 pediatric patient cohort with cystic fibrosis (CF). All children were diagnosed and followed in the Regional center for CF of INSMC “Alessandrescu-Rusescu”, Bucharest, between 2011 and 2016. After data collection and statistic analysis we observed a prevalence of 11.7% of food allergies in our cystic fibrosis patients cohort. Also, specific exclusion diet impact on nutritional status was evaluated.

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease with life-threatening morbidity and with epidemic spread. This metabolic disorder affects an increasing number of pregnant women. General practitioners and obstetricians need to know how some occult maternal metabolic disorders could be revealed by pregnancy and how pregnancy could influence the fetal health and the long-term progression of maternal disease. Pregnancy is considered a stress test for life and diabetes mellitus is a good example to illustrate this correlation.
Red Terror in Azerbaijan: The Case of the “Reserve Rightwing Trotskyite Center of the Counterrevolutionary Nationalist Organization” (1938-1956)
Authors: ALİZADE Aydın
Published: June 2021

This article explores the history of one of the investigations of the Red Terror period into the “Reserve Rightwing Trotskyite Center of the Counterrevolutionary Nationalist Organization” (1938-56) in Azerbaijan. More than 300 people were convicted in this case, including members of the senior leadership of the Azerbaijan SSR and deputies of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR. Therefore, this case was one of the largest cases of that period. However, it was subsequently proved that the case was fabricated, and all convicts were rehabilitated. In connection with the sequential presentation of events, a narrative method of investigation was used in the article. The scientific novelty of the work is that this research is conducted for the first time. The main conclusion is that this political case was fabricated from the very beginning, and the investigation was conducted by illegal methods. In the work on the article, archival materials, as well as studies by other authors on the theme of the Red Terror in Azerbaijan were studied.
Moğol Tahakkümü Sürecinde Sultan Öyüğü Uc Bölgesi
Authors: BOZ Cem
Published: June 2021

Kösedağ yenilgisi sonrasında Moğolların haraçgüzârı haline gelen Anadolu Selçuklu Devleti, Sultan II. Keyhüsrev'in ölümü sonrasında başlayan saltanat mücadeleleriyle birlikte, hızla bağımsızlığını yitirmeye başladığı bir sürecin içerisine girmiştir. 1249 yılında Güyük Han'ın şehzade Rükneddin Kılıç Arslan'ı sultan ilan etmesiyle birlikte fitili ateşlenen bu saltanat kavgaları, kısa süre içerisinde Anadolu'yu buhran içinde bırakan bir rejim mücadelesine dönüşmüş ve Sultan II. İzzeddin Keykâvus'un Moğol baskısı nedeniyle 1262 yılında ülkeden ayrılmasının ardından uç bölgelerinde yaşayan Türkmenler Anadolu'daki Moğol hegemonyasına karşı direnmeye devam etmişlerdir. İncelememizin konusu olan Sultan Öyüğü bölgesi de bu süreç içerisinde, hem Anadolu'daki Moğol karşıtlığının en belirgin olduğu yerlerden biri olarak, hem de Anadolu Selçuklu Devleti'nin yıkılışının ardından yeni bir dönem başlatan Osmanlı Devleti'nin temellerinin atıldığı yer olarak dikkatleri çekmektedir. Bu makalede Sultan Öyüğü bölgesinin Moğol tahakkümü sürecinde içinde bulunduğu siyasi koşullar daha çok, Ertuğrul Bey ile oğlu Osman Bey'in faaliyetleriyle ilişkilendirilerek ortaya konulmuştur.
NMDB database and global survey method
Authors: Gololobov Petr Yu , Starodubtsev Sergey A. , Grigoryev Vladislav G. , Zverev Anton S.
Published: June 2021

The method of a global survey developed in the 1970s allows using a world-wide network of neutron monitor stations as a single multidirectional device. Wherein, receiving characteristics
of each device, which reflects their geometries and geographical positions, are taken into account. Such an approach makes it possible to define the first two angular moments of the
distribution function of cosmic rays in the interplanetary space at each hour of observation. With the creation in 2008/2009 and subsequent development of an international database of
neutron monitors NMDB, for the first time it appeared an opportunity to use the global survey method in real-time mode. Such a situation creates a unique possibility to use the results
not only for scienti- fic researches but also for space weather forecasting. To use the data of the world-wide network of neutron monitors it is necessary to carry preliminary preparations.
Thereby, in the current work, the main attention is attracted to a solution to some practical questions that arise when using the NMDB in real-time.

Published: June 2021

Last January 2019, a new neutron monitor was installed at Juan Carlos I Spanish Antarctic Station (62º 39’ 46’’ S, 60º23’20’’ W, 12 m asl) located in Livingston Island (South Shetland Archipelago)
close to the Antarctic Peninsula. The vertical rigidity cut-off for this new station is estimated as 3.52 GV. This new station (ORC) is composed of a BF3-based 3NM64 (ORCA) and 3 bare BF3 counters
(ORCB). The neutron monitor is complemented by a muon telescope sharing a common room in a single stack. ORCA and ORCB with the Castilla-La Mancha neutron monitor (CaLMa) are the Spanish contributions
to the Neutron Monitor Data Base. Because Juan Carlos I station is a summer station, one minute data is providing once a day during the Antarctic summer. One hour data are sent once a day during
Antarctic winter. First measurements and future plans are provided in this work.
Study of individual pulses at the Antarctic high-altitude neutron monitor DOMC
Authors: Similä Markus , Poluianov Stepan , Usoskin Ilya
Published: June 2021

A pair of neutron monitors (NMs) is installed on the high Central Antarctic plateau, at the Concordia station (3200 m altitude) and measures the nucleonic component of nucleonic-muon-electromagnetic
cascades in- duced by high-energy cosmic rays in the atmosphere. The installation includes two NMs: DOMC, a standard mini-NM, and a bare (lead-free) DOMB NM. The newly installed data acquisition (DAQ)
system records in- dividual pulses corresponding to mostly neutrons in the detector’s counting tube. Here we analyze different types of pulses and study the distribution of the waiting times between
individual pulses as well as the pulse height, recorded by the DOMC NM during a quiet period of January 2020. The distribution appears double- peaked with peaks corresponding to the frequency of
individual atmospheric cascades and the intra-cascade variability, respectively. We discuss also the nature of different components contributing to the pulses and se - paration of the signal from noise.
It is shown that the waiting-time distribution has distinguished timescales, >30 ms defined by the cosmic-ray induced atmospheric cascades, and < 10 ms reflecting the intra-cascade variability.
The new DAQ system allows one to study the development of the atmospheric cascade.
Revisión crítica y parcial al actual programa EREC
Authors: Valero Iturrieta Miguel
Published: June 2021

El objetivo del presente artículo será analizar y revisar el actual Programa de Educación Religiosa Escolar Católica (EREC). Esta nueva perspectiva plantea trasladar al Programa EREC desde una ubicación centrada en la asignatura de Religión a una postura vinculada al medio, integral y dialogante con los distintos sectores de aprendizaje. Lo anterior se concreta con la incorporación del trabajo interdisciplinario y se propone complementarlo con el uso de Trayectorias de Aprendizaje. Estas últimas permiten trazar un desarrollo gradual de los contenidos de la asignatura de Religión evitando que los estudiantes experimenten contradicciones y colisiones con otros sectores de aprendizaje. Además, se propone el esbozo de un modelo para desarrollar de forma eficaz un contenido programático. Metodológicamente, esta será una investigación bibliográfica referida especialmente a documentos ministeriales, complementados con otros autores.
Žene na rukovodećim ranim mjestima u odabranoj županiji
Authors: Štekl Rudi
Published: June 2021

Položaj žena na rukovodećim pozicijama u državnom, ali
i u privatnom sektoru dobiva sve veću važnost na tržištu rada u Republici
Hrvatskoj. Pojam „stakleni strop“ koji se koristi kada se govori o sprječavanju
napredovanja žena na više hijerarhijske razine na određenom radnom mjestu
dobiva sve veću zastupljenost kao važna tema. Glavni cilj ovoga rada je
prikazati razinu položaja žena odnosno zastupljenost istih u jedinicama lokalne
samouprave kroz istraživanje anketnog upitnika na uzorku od 60 gradskih
službenika odabrane županije. Ovakav model ili tzv. fenomen ženskog spolnog
diskriminiranja posebno dominira u jedinicama lokalne i regionalne samouprave
gdje nedovoljna inkluzija ženskih osoba u politički spektar posljedično dovodi
do lošijeg radnog statusa i nemogućnosti profesionalnog napredovanja. Iako
zakon o ravnopravnosti spolova zabranjuje spolnu diskriminaciju na radnom
mjestu, još uvijek „stakleni strop“ blokira napredovanje žena na najviše
položaje u sustavu jedinica lokalne samouprave. Ostali ciljevi rada su identifikacija
prepreka u napredovanju žena na organizacijskoj ljestvici te predložene
preporuke u poboljšanju razvoja karijere žena u navedenom sustavu. Iz dobivenih
rezultata istraživanja u radu prikazane su i spoznaje do kojih se došlo. Uloga
i značaj ovakvih problematika u društvu sve je više izražena upravo u vidu
potreba tržišta odnosno inkluzije cijelog društvenog spektra. Društvo određuje svoju
budućnost te razinu napredovanja u kojem bi svi trebali imati jednaka prava i
mogućnosti neovisno o spolu, dobi i rasi!
Budžetiranjem do sigurnijeg poslovanja i razvoja poduzeća
Authors: Tintor Željko
Published: June 2021

Najznačajnija zadaća menadžera jest donošenje poslovnih odluka. Bez obzira o kojoj se vrsti odluka radi njihov konačni cilj jest osigurati optimalno poslovanje i ostvarivanje dobiti te budući rast i razvoj poduzeća. Rizik takvih odluka ne dopušta njihovo donošenje samo na intuiciji, već traži pouzdane i vjerodostojne informacije i promišljene aktivnosti kojima će osigurati ostvarivanje navedenih ciljeva. Među inima najvažniju aktivnost menadžera čini budžetiranje koje predstavlja temelj poslovnog planiranja i menadžerske kontrole nad poslovnim procesima i rezultatima poslovanja. S obzirom na vremenski rok planiranje se dijeli na dugoročno i kratkoročno. Prvim se obično na vrijeme duže od tri ili više godina utvrđuju strateški ciljevi zajedno s
okvirnom sredstvima, širim uputama i aktivnostima njihova postizanja, dok se drugim kojeg nazivamo master budžet ili glavni poslovni plan obuhvaća razdoblje od jedne godine ili kraće razdoblje s preciznijim poslovnim ciljevima i detaljnijim sredstvima i aktivnostima kojima ih se
namjerava realizirati. Master budžet predstavlja skup pojedinačnih budžeta dijelova, odnosno procesa u poduzeću koji zajedno čine sinergiju
planiranih aktivnosti budućeg poslovanja poduzeća. Primjereno veličini poduzeća i prirodi njegova poslovanja razlikujemo master budžet proizvodnog i trgovačkog poduzeća. Međutim, u oba slučaja planiranje kao
proces primjereno obuhvaća pripreme za planiranje, definiranje ciljeva,
izradu i prihvaćanje pplan te kontrolu i analizu provedbe plana. Ovaj je rad posvećen središnjem dijelu planiranja, odnosno izradi master budžeta koji kao glavni poslovni plan obuhvaća operativni budžet i financijski budžet svih poslovnih aktivnosti proizvodnog poduzeća u razdoblju od jedne godine. Kao takav on predstavlja odgovor na tržišne izazove, neizvjesnosti i rizike poslovanja. Jednostavnošću prikaza posebno je prilagođen za potrebe malih poduzeća koja čine većinu gospodarskih subjekata u Republici Hrvatskoj. Cilj je rada ukazati na značaj master budžeta i prezentirati cjeloviti model poslovnog plana proizvodnog poduzeća i menadžerske kontrole nad svim poslovnim procesima.

Okvir za uvođenje i provjeru GDPR-a u malim i srednje velikim poduzećima
Authors: Penić Sanja , Saletović Kristian
Published: June 2021

Opća uredba o zaštiti osobnih podataka (Uredba
(EU) 2016/697 poznata kao GDPR) počela se primjenjivati u svibnju 2018. godine
te je imala znatan utjecaj na organizaciju poslovnih procesa u poduzećima.
Posebno su to osjetila mala i srednje velika poduzeća za koje GDPR predstavlja
dodatno opterećenje zbog ionako ograničenih resursa. Okvir za implementaciju i
reviziju prethodno implementiranih zahtjeva definiranih GDPR-om predstavljen u
ovom radu rezultat je informacija iz znanstvene literature i spoznaja dobivenih
revizijom već implementirane Uredbe u dva mala poduzeća. Cilj je ovog rada je
doprinijeti razumijevanju poteškoća s
kojim se suočavaju mala i srednje velika poduzeća pri implementaciji GDPR-a. U
radu je korištena studije slučaja. Dobiveni rezultati pokazali su da, iako je
prošlo već dvije godine od prve implementacije, još postoji nerazumijevanje
terminologije i obaveza u smislu svakodnevne primjene.
Mass–Radius Relationships for Irradiated Ocean Planets
Authors: Aguichine Artyom , Mousis Olivier , Deleuil Magali , Marcq Emmanuel
Published: June 2021

Massive and water-rich planets should be ubiquitous in the universe. Many of these worlds are expected to be subject to important irradiation from their host star, and display supercritical water layers surrounded by extended steam atmospheres. Irradiated ocean planets with such inflated hydrospheres have been recently shown to be good candidates for matching the mass–radius distribution of sub-Neptunes. Here we describe a model that computes a realistic structure for water-rich planets by combining an interior model with an updated equation of state (EOS) for water, and an atmospheric model that takes into account radiative transfer. We find that the use of inappropriate EOSs can lead to the overestimation of the planetary radius by up to ∼10%, depending on the planet size and composition. Our model has been applied to the GJ 9827 system as a test case and indicates Earth- or Venus-like interiors for planets b and c, respectively. Planet d could be an irradiated ocean planet with a water mass fraction (WMF) of ∼20% ± 10%. We also provide fits for the mass–radius relationships, allowing one to directly retrieve a wide range of planetary compositions, without the requirement to run the model. Our calculations finally suggest that highly irradiated planets lost their H/He content through atmospheric loss processes, and that the leftover material led to either super-Earths or sub-Neptunes, depending on the WMF.
Neoxabea mexicana sp. nov. (Gryllidae: Oecanthinae): A new species from Mexico and a key for Neoxabea in North and Central America
Authors: Collins Nancy , Velazco-Macias Carlos Gerardo
Published: June 2021

A new species of tree cricket,Neoxabea mexicanasp. nov., is described from northeast Mexico. Although it has morphological similarities to two other species found in Mexico, there are distinguishing characters, such as a well-developed tubercle on the pedicel, black markings on the maxillary palpi, one of the two pairs of spots on the female wings positioned at the base of the wings, stridulatory teeth count, and the pulse rate of the male calling song. The calling song description and pre-singing stuttering frequencies are provided. Character comparisons that rule out other species in the genus are presented. The common name given to this new species is Mexican tree cricket. Sound recordings and video are available online. We also make some clarification of the status ofNeoxabea formosa(Walker, 1869), described asOecanthus formosus, and present a key ofNeoxabeain North and Central America.

Background/Aims: The clinical characteristics of patients with masked uncontrolled hypertension (MUCH) have been poorly defined, and few studies have investigated the clinical predictors of MUCH. We investigated the demographic, clinical, and blood pressure (BP) characteristics of patients with MUCH and proposed a prediction model for MUCH in patients with hypertension.Methods: We analyzed 1,986 subjects who were enrolled in the Korean Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (Kor-ABP) Registry and taking antihypertensive drugs, and classified them into the controlled hypertension (n = 465) and MUCH (n = 389) groups. MUCH was defined as the presence of a 24-hour ambulatory mean systolic BP ≥ 130 mmHg and/or diastolic BP ≥ 80 mmHg in patients treated with antihypertensive drugs, having normal office BP.Results: Patients in the MUCH group had significantly worse metabolic profiles and higher office BP, and took significantly fewer antihypertensive drugs compared to those in the controlled hypertension group. Multivariate logistic regression analyses identified high office systolic BP and diastolic BP, prior stroke, dyslipidemia, left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH, ≥ 116 g/m2 for men, and ≥ 96 g/m2 for women), high heart rate (≥ 75 beats/min), and single antihypertensive drug use as independent predictors of MUCH. A prediction model using these predictors showed a high diagnostic accuracy (C-index of 0.839) and goodness-of-fit for the presence of MUCH.Conclusions: MUCH is associated with a high-normal increase in office BP and underuse of antihypertensive drugs, as well as dyslipidemia, prior stroke, and LVH, which could underscore achieving optimal BP control. The proposed model accurately predicts MUCH in patients with controlled office BP.
Alphonse de Madrigal, Thomas More et Suárez
Authors: Coujou Jean-Paul
Published: June 2021

La philosophie de Suárez dans sa confrontation implicite à l’héritage de Thomas More (1478−1535) et de Madrigal (1410 ?−1455), permet de dégager une double orientation au cœur de la constitution de la théorie politique : celle de la recherche du meilleur régime, du gouvernement idéal, de la meilleure des républiques qui l’emporterait dans l’ordre du bien vivre et que rien ne surpasserait en son genre, espace privilégié où s’exercerait sans contraintes l’imagination sociale ; et celle qui viserait à établir, non la meilleure forme de gouvernement mais qui, en accord avec ce que les hommes sont, créerait les conditions de leur perfectionnement. Il ne s’agirait pas tant de théoriser le meilleur système de gouvernement que de se donner les moyens de poser les fondements du gouvernement le plus adéquat eu égard à la nature humaine. C’est à partir de cette alternative que Suárez se propose de penser la question des limites propres à tout exercice du politique.
Dispersive estimates for the wave and the Klein-Gordon equations in large time inside the Friedlander domain
Authors: Ivanovici Oana
Published: June 2021

We prove global in time dispersion for the wave and the Klein-Gordon equation inside the Friedlander domain by taking full advantage of the space-time localization of caustics and a precise estimate of the number of waves that may cross at a given, large time. Moreover, we uncover a significant difference between Klein-Gordon and the wave equation in the low frequency, large time regime, where Klein-Gordon exhibits a worse decay than the wave, unlike in the flat space.
Extinction or coexistence in periodic Kolmogorov systems of competitive type
Authors: Coelho Isabel , Rebelo Carlota , Sovrano Elisa
Published: June 2021

We study a periodic Kolmogorov system describing two species nonlinear competition. We discuss coexistence and extinction of one or both species, and describe the domain of attraction of nontrivial periodic solutions in the axes, under conditions that generalise Gopalsamy conditions. Finally, we apply our results to a model of microbial growth and to a model of phytoplankton competition under the effect of toxins.

Published: June 2021

A pesar de la importancia que tienen los ecosistemas de la ecorregión Puna en la provisión de servicios ecosistémicos esenciales para el bienestar humano, al extremo sur del Perú no se implementan estrategias de conservación y restauración. Por el contrario, durante años se vienen degradando y transformando por la construcción de infraestructura gris de diversas actividades antropogénicas (viales, afianzamiento hídrico, depósitos materiales, crecimiento poblacional, etc.) generándose un evidente proceso de fragmentación cuyo nivel y efectos ecológicos se ignoran. Es por ello que utilizando los principios de la ecología del paisaje, software especializado, revisión de imágenes satelitales y viajes de campo elaboramos una base cartográfica completa de actividades antropogénicas de los años 1975, 2012 y 2050 para interceptarlos a los ecosistemas de la ecorregión Puna del Mapa Nacional y así calcular las métricas o índices de fragmentación. Los resultados indican que al año 2050 el 8,2% de la ecorregión Puna será transformada en infraestructura, triplicándose la cantidad de fragmentos, disminuyéndose gravemente su área (tamaño), complejidad, irregularidad (forma) y aumentando la distancia entre ellos (borde). A nivel de clase, los pajonales de puna serán los más fragmentados, luego la zona periglaciar, lagunas, bofedales, matorrales y bosques altoandinos, generándose efectos nocivos para la biodiversidad que no están siendo considerados en las políticas de gestión territorial. Esta información científica resulta útil para que las autoridades locales establezcan mecanismos de restauración de los ecosistemas proveedores de recurso hídrico, necesario para la agricultura, ganadería, población, minería, etc., a nivel departamental con miras al desarrollo sostenible.

A pesar de la importancia de los bosques de Polylepis para la biodiversidad y la provisión de servicios ecosistémicos en el Altiplano del extremo sur del Perú (departamento de Tacna), se cuenta con muy poca información científica actualizada que sustente acciones efectivas de conservación. Mediante técnicas de sensoramiento remoto se ha delimitado la superficie de los bosques de Polylepis tarapacana en la cuenca Maure (Altiplano del departamento de Tacna) y evaluado los principales factores ambientales que afectan su desarrollo. Se comparó la superficie obtenida con factores ambientales influyentes para su desarrollo como la altitud, el clima y una serie de índices morfométricos como la orientación y la protección topográfica. A diferencia de otros bosques de Polylepis, la orientación dominante de estos parches de Polylepis tarapacana es N-NE-E, expuesto a insolación durante las horas previas al mediodía, además se desarrolla en sectores de baja protección del relieve y poca probabilidad de intercepción con acuíferos cercanos (valores negativos para el índice de humedad). El 56,66% del área identificada intercepta al polígono de Polylepis del Mapa Nacional de Ecosistemas del Perú del año 2018, el 30,12% se encuentra bajo una modalidad de conservación y el 74,49% se encuentra dentro de terrenos de seis comunidades campesinas. Esta investigación genera un polígono de bosque más preciso que los disponibles en la actualidad, y permite evaluar las alternativas para su protección. La ampliación del Área de Conservación Regional Vilacota - Maure emerge como la mejor opción para asegurar la preservación de este bosque, puesto que asegura la protección de la casi totalidad del área identificada.
