Lantamal XII Pontianak strategy in empowering maritime potential in the region to strengthen the total people's defense system
Authors: Subur Mokhamad , Midhio I Wayan , Sulistyadi Edy
Published: September 2022

In the regional dimension, West Kalimantan is divided into three dimensions of the territory, namely coastal and island areas, inland areas and border areas between countries. It has a long coastline to the north bordering Malaysia. Based on its geographical location, one-third of West Kalimantan is along the coast and islands facing The Indonesian Archipelago Sea Lane (ALKI I). In accordance with the policy of the President of the Republic of Indonesia regarding the transfer of the New National Capital (IKN) to Kutai Kertanegara Regency precisely in Penajam Pasir Utara. This will have implications for the change of the Indonesian Center of Gravity (CoG) which is also moving from Jakarta to the new IKN. With such conditions in the geographical constellation of national resources, the West Kalimantan region has the potential for security disturbances that can occur in and or by sea. The Main Base of the Indonesian Navy XII Pontianak as one of the defense instruments, has the task to secure and maintain all forms of threats that arise. For this reason, by looking at the current situation of strategic environmental development, the right strategy is needed by empowering all maritime potential in the West Kalimantan region as a national resource to project power from sea to land in order to strengthen the Total People's Defense System (Sishanrata).

The dynamics of the development of the strategic environment is very rapid by experiencing VUCA conditions which are heavily influenced by Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity that occur in almost every country, therefore the need for tactics from a country through understanding in order to create interests that will be achieved by a country, understanding Democracy is an understanding that is highly appreciated by the world, because with democracy humans prioritize their rights, like a double-edged knife that has benefits for human life, the development of democracy can also be used for crimes, such as the development of radicalism, proxy wars and crime using high technology, including the current global problem of the Covid-19 outbreak that can change the pattern of a country's strategic environmental system, the research method used is descriptive qualitative method, using data sources from reports, print media, and online media. The results of research on Democracy in achieving national interests in the midst of the dynamics of the VUCA strategic environment are very wary of because they can change the stability of a country's defense and security.
TRANSNATIONAL EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT IN CHINA: A REVIEW
Authors: TANG MIN , TANG NING
Published: September 2022

The emergence of China as one of the biggest host countries of TNE in the past decades has been indispensable to the progressive TNE policies in China. This paper systematically reviews Chinese TNE policy changes and conceptually analyses six distinctive phases of TNE policy development. It suggests a changing pattern of cautious TNE relationship with western countries to the enthusiastic establishment of TNE institutions and programs across China, followed by tightened TNE review and targeted development of TNE disciplines and models, leading to a guided TNE promotion with the Belt and Road countries in recent years and temporary expansion of TNE recruitments in the current pandemic China. The paper argues that TNE policy changes always keep pace with the strategic development of China as evidenced in the current focus of a dual-way TNE of ‘draw-in’ and ‘going-out’.
Karol Mikuli, uczeń Fryderyka Chopina i dyrektor konserwatorium we Lwowie. W 200. rocznicę urodzin pianisty i kompozytora (1821–2021)
Authors: Piekarski Michał
Published: September 2022

Karol Mikuli (1821–1897) pochodził z rodziny Ormian zamieszkałych w Austro-Węgrzech. Podobnie jak nauczyciel Chopina Józef Elsner, także Mikuli należał do bliskich Chopinowi osób, które medycynę porzuciły dla muzyki. W obydwu przypadkach miało to miejsce w Wiedniu. Wkrótce w Paryżu Mikuli znalazł się w najbliższym kręgu Fryderyka Chopina, pod którego kierunkiem kształcił się przez co najmniej trzy lata: 1844–1847, ale doświadczenia te wywarły wpływ na całe jego dalsze życie. Dzięki Mikulemu i jego uczniom właśnie we Lwowie tradycje chopinowskie były kontynuowane na ziemiach polskich. W latach 1858–1887 Mikuli kierował Konserwatorium Galicyjskiego Towarzystwa Muzycznego we Lwowie, gdzie w 1859 roku stworzył klasę fortepianu. Zgodnie z wolą uczniów wprowadził też do Konserwatorium język polski jako wykładowy na miejsce dotychczasowego niemieckiego. W konserwatorium, jak i w ramach lekcji prywatnych, wykształcił w sumie ponad 100 uczniów. Poza działalnością pedagogiczną organizował koncerty GTM. Był też kompozytorem, tworzącym zarówno gatunki uprawiane przez Chopina (np. mazurki i polonezy fortepianowe), jak i muzykę kameralną oraz pieśni, które wskazują na wpływ ogólnoeuropejskiego romantyzmu (kręgu niemieckojęzycznego). Dzięki działalności Mikulego to właśnie we Lwowie w 1910 roku jego dawni uczniowie zorganizowali ogólnopolskie obchody w stulecie urodzin Chopina.

Authors: Morales Bayona María
Published: September 2022

Introducción: La enfermedad de hígado graso no alcohólico (EHGNA) afecta a un 25% de la población mundial; además de generar daño hepático, está asociada a un mayor riesgo de diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (DM2) y enfermedad cardiovascular. El objetivo del estudio fue determinar la asociación de disglicemia y EHGNA en pacientes sin antecedente de alteraciones de la glicemia.

Material y Métodos: Estudio observacional, descriptivo-correlacional de 79 pacientes con adiposidad (EHGNA=70), sin antecedentes de disglicemia. Se registró sexo, edad, presión arterial, IMC, circunferencia abdominal, glicemia en ayunas (GA) y a los 120 minutos en la prueba de tolerancia oral a la glucosa (PTOG), hemoglobina glicada (A1C), índice HOMA-IR, transaminasas, colesterol HDL, LDL, triglicéridos, y el NAFLD-Fibrosis Score (NFS).

Resultados: Ingresaron 79 pacientes (F=52, M=27), edad 48.48 ± 13.8 años. El 96.3% de varones y el 84.3% de mujeres tuvieron EHGNA por ecografía; de ellos, el 65.2% tuvo GA alterada y el 4.4%, valores de DM2. El 20% presentó PTOG alterada (ninguno en rango de DM2). Según la A1C, el 25.7% tenía prediabetes, y el 7.2% DM2. El 85.7% tuvo valores de HOMA-IR > 2.

Conclusiones: En los pacientes estudiados con adiposidad y EHGNA sin diagnóstico conocido de disglicemia fue frecuente la insulinorresistencia con glicemia normal, la GA alterada, y PTOG alterada. Los hallazgos justifican la vigilancia de aparición de disglicemia en los pacientes con EHGNA  perteneciente a grupos de riesgo (adiposidad, síndrome metabólico o DM2) a través del HOMA-IR, la PTGO, y el dosaje de A1C para un manejo multidisciplinario precoz.

Published: September 2022

Objective: The conservation of Bali bulls, the Indonesian native breed of cattle, is crucial for cattle breeding in Indonesia. To guarantee the spread of Bali bulls through artificial insemination the quality of the frozen semen must be high. To this end, adding an extender material to semen that increases spermatozoa’s survival during cryopreservation is important. Green tea extract (GTE) can be used as cryoprotectant because its high antioxidant activity can help avoid reactive oxygen species formation.Methods: Semen of five Bali bulls from the National Artificial Insemination Center at Singosari, Indonesia was collected routinely twice a week. First, fresh semen inspection was performed to determine the feasibility of using Bali bulls as animal samples. The extender used in this study was Tris-based egg yolk. The samples were divided into four treatments: T0, no GTE added to the extender; T1, 0.05 mg GTE plus 100 mL extender; T2, 0.10 mg GTE plus 100 mL extender; and T3, 0.15 mg GTE plus 100 mL extender. The semen freezing process was conducted according to standard procedures and sperm quality parameters, i.e., sperm motility, viability, abnormalities, and membrane integrity observed pre-freezing and post-thawing.Results: There were significant differences in total motility, progressive motility, viability, and integrity membrane of Bali bull sperm at both pre-freezing and post-thawing after adding GTE into the extender. In contrast, there were no differences in abnormalities among treatments.Conclusion: Adding GTE at a 0.15 mg into 100 mL Tris-based egg yolk extender can improve the quality of cryopreserved Bali bull sperm.

The beef cattle industry in China has advanced remarkably since its reform and opening up; consequently, China has become the world’s third-largest beef cattle producer. China is also one of the countries with the most substantial research input and output in the field of beef cattle feed and nutrition. The progress and innovation by China in the research field of beef cattle feed and nutrition have undoubtedly promoted the development of the domestic beef cattle industry. This review summarizes recent advances in feed resource development, nutrient requirements, and nutritional regulation of beef cattle in China. Limitations in current research and perspectives on future work are also discussed.
Design recommendations under the Self-determination theory: Analyzing some systems and their implication to self-esteem
Authors: Muriana Luã Marcelo , Baranauskas Maria Cecília Calani
Published: September 2022

Self-esteem is a concept that refers to a person's self-evaluation that can be related to the person’s success in interacting with other people and the world around them. The self-esteem of a person is built over a lifetime, influenced by experiences, social interactions, and sense-making about the world based on self-perception of life. As people, technology and society are increasingly connected, technology may also influence its user’s self-esteem. In this paper, we investigate the subject through the lens of the Self-determination Theory, by analyzing literature work addressing the relation between technology design and self-esteem impact. Based on a meta-analysis of 21 papers previously selected from literature, we present, as result, 18 design recommendations to digital and physical artefact solutions; these recommendations are classified according to their main content, purpose, and aspect (personal, social, and technical). We could verify the recommendations completeness and analyze how they encompass the capacity of influencing self-esteem in four systems raised from literature and in one system developed considering these recommendations. With results of this work, we aim at providing technical support to guide designers in improving their system towards users’ motivation and self-esteem, favoring a designer’s reflection about how the systems they develop may affect the user’s life.
Mobbing am Arbeitsplatz
Authors: Beck Sandra
Published: September 2022

The volume focuses on a practical compilation of sustainable anti-bullying strategies. Until now, there has been no criminologically oriented interdisciplinary analysis of the social phenomenon of bullying in Germany, which is why the work creates real added value for practice. After explaining the (criminal) legal responsibilities, practical measures for prevention and intervention in cases of mobbing are explained in detail against the background of causes and consequences.

Die Einwilligung im Direktmarketing durch Fernkommunikation
Authors: Boos Nikolaus
Published: September 2022

A central requirement for the admissibility of direct marketing is the prior given consent of the recipient to the transmission of the advertising. The admissibility of direct marketing with means of remote communication often fails because it can't obtain effective consent. The author addresses the requirements for such consent. The work deals, among other things, with the question of the legal nature of consent. Since the GDPR came into effect, there is reason to address the question of the admissibility of implied consent in the area of consumer law. Presumed consent is also discussed. The intensity of harassment of communication media in the weighing of interests as well as the ability to give consent are discussed.

Published: September 2022

Background: Difficult life experiences in adulthood, such as caregiving of an individual with traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI), constitute a challenge to the self and identity. Objectives: This study aimed to explore self-perception from the viewpoints of informal caregivers of individuals with TSCI. Methods: Twelve informal caregivers of individuals with TSCI participated in this qualitative study. The researchers purposively selected the participants and conducted in-depth semi-structured interviews for data collection. They recorded the interviews and transcribed them verbatim. The researchers analyzed the data according to the qualitative content analysis method. Results: The findings included “the self-being” as the main category and “self-essence” and “self-possession” as higher-level subcategories and their 25 related lower-level subcategories. Conclusions: The participants might perceive themselves as an eternal and granted “self-essence” or may perceive it as perishable and unstable “self-possessions.” Depending on self-perception, self-confidence and self-worth were maintained under any circumstances or fluctuated according to defects or lack of self-possessions.
Impact of the selected boundary layer schemes and enhanced horizontal resolution on the Weather Research and Forecasting model performance on James Ross Island, Antarctic Peninsula
Authors: Matějka Michael , Láska Kamil
Published: September 2022

The output of the various Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model configurations was compared with ground-based observations in the northern part of James Ross Island, Antarctic Peninsula. In this region, a network of automatic weather stations deployed at ice-free sites (as well as small glaciers) is operated by the Czech Antarctic Research Programme. Data from these stations provide a unique opportunity to evaluate the WRF model in a complex terrain of James Ross Island. The model was forced by the ERA5 reanalysis data and the University of Bremen sea ice data. The model configurations include a novel Three-Dimensional Scale-Adaptive Turbulent Kinetic Energy (3D TKE) planetary boundary layer scheme and a more traditional Quasi-Normal Scale Elimination (QNSE) scheme. Impact of model horizontal resolution was evaluated by running simulations in both 700 m and 300 m. The validation period, 25 May 2019 to 12 June 2019, was selected to cover different stratification regimes of air temperature and a significant snowfall event. Air temperature was simulated well except for strong low-level inversions. These inversions occurred in 44% of all cases and contributed to a higher mean bias (2.0–2.9°C) at low-elevation sites than at high altitude sites (0.2–0.6°C). The selection of the 3D TKE scheme led to improvement at low-elevation sites; at high altitude sites, the differences between model configurations were rather small. The best performance in wind speed simulation was achieved with the combination of the 3D TKE scheme and 300 m model resolution. The most important improvement was decrease of bias at a coastal Mendel Station from 3.5 m·s‑1 with the QNSE scheme on the 700 m grid to 1.2 m·s‑1 with the 3D TKE scheme on the 300 m grid. The WRF model was also proven to simulate a large snowfall event with a good correspondence with the observed snow height.
Moss inhabiting diatoms of Galindez Island, Argentine Islands (the maritime Antarctica) exhibit low diversity and pronounced differentiation
Authors: Chattová Barbora , Zotov Andrii , Parnikoza Ivan
Published: September 2022

The moss-inhabiting diatom flora has been surveyed for the first time on the Galindez Island, Argentine Islands, the maritime Antarctica. Altogether, 23 diatom taxa belonging to 9 genera were identified. Diatom taxa distribution exhibited considerable variability across the samples and lower species richness compared to the communities surveyed in other Antarctic regions studied earlier - South Shetland Islands and James Ross Island. A pronounced single-species dominance was revealed by the analysis of moss-inhabiting diatom communities’ structure at the majority of moss substrates. The allocation of certain diatom species to the particular moss substrates was detected alongside their complete absence in some samples. The reasons for such moss-inhabiting diatom communities’ variability should be further investigated in follow-up studies.
ModiYacht: Intelligent CAD Tool for Parametric, Generative, Attributive and Interactive Modelling of Yacht Hull Forms
Authors: Khan Shahroz , Gunpinar Erkan , Mert Dogan Kemal , Sener Bekir , Kaklis Panagiotis
Published: September 2022

This work proposes a new design tool called ModiYacht generation of optimal and user-centred yacht hull forms. The proposed system is based on different design modules, namely, parametric, generative, attribute-based, and interactive design. Parametric modelling is performed based on high-level operators, called Shape Modifiers, which uses different quality criteria for generating smooth and feasible designs. Because innovative and creative design is essential to a successful product; therefore, we also bring the benefits of generative design to ModiYacht by introducing a technique called N-TLBO. Instead of a single solution, NTLBO generates a variety of optimal design solutions for users to select a design satisfying their design and performance requirements. Afterwards, design attributes are also developed using machine learning to shorten the communication gap between customers and designers. Designs generated from generative design can also be used to perform interactive design modelling for users to explore a given design space not only based on the performance but also based on their form appearance. For this purpose, ModiYacht uses a space-shrinking technique, which shrinks the design space during optimisation and guides the exploration process to focus the computational efforts on user-preferred regions.
Introduction: One world, one health
Authors: Thompson Teresa L.
Published: September 2022

Although a One Health perspective has, in one way or another, been around at least since the time of Hippocrates, the term itself was coined by William Karesh in a 2003 The Washington Post article. Since that time, the concept has been discussed, applied, and elaborated in numerous ways. Little, however, has done more to make the concept relevant to global concerns than the Covid-19 pandemic (the third major coronavirus to emerge in this millennium, including SARS and MERS). As is evident in the label, One Health essentially «is an intersectoral and interdisciplinary approach that focuses on where the health of humans, animals and environments or ecosystems converge» (Soares, 2020, p. 652). Although some who write on One Health have argued about definitional issues, such argumentation is not particularly helpful to our discussion at present.

Amb més de sis milions de morts associades fins a l’actualitat, la pandèmia de COVID-19 és una de les pitjors malalties d’origen animal. Altres malalties zoonòtiques han causat brots importants durant les últimes dècades com la SARS (en 2002-2004, sobretot a la Xina), la MERS (en 2012, principalment a l’Orient Mitjà), l’ebola (de 2013 a 2016, a l’Àfrica occidental) i la febre de la vall del Rift (de 2016 al present, a l’Àfrica). A més, i especialment als països de renda baixa, algunes malalties zoonòtiques, com la tuberculosi i la ràbia, són endèmiques i causen milers de morts. El 60 % de les malalties infeccioses conegudes i el 75 % de les malalties infeccioses emergents tenen un origen animal i són responsables de problemes de salut pública i pèrdues econòmiques.
L’évolution paléogéographique pré-Varisque de la Zone Cantabrique septentrionale (Espagne).
Authors: García-Alcalde Fernández Jenaro Luis
Published: September 2022

Cette communication propose une mise a jour des données géologiques récentes concernant la Zone Cantabrique (ZC) au regard de l'analyse paléogéographique. La ZC est l'avant-pays du Massif lbérique déformé au Carbonifere. Les structures hercyniennes de la Zone dessinent une bande arquée: I' Are Asturien (AA) qui est, en fait, la charniere interne de l'Arc Ibéro-armoricain. Les renseignements sédimentologiques signalent l'existence, au cours du Paléozo"ique pré-Carboni.fere, d'une aire émergée, a relief variable, vers le noyau de l'AA. L'onde orogénique hercynienne venant de l'Ouest a remplacé de ce cóté-la la région d'origine des sédiments des le Dévonien supérieur. Plusieurs discontinuités jalonnent la série stratigraphique. Pourtant la concordance entre les formations est conservée ce qui indiquerait que l'activité tectonique pré-varisque s'est bornée a des mouvements épirogéniques verticaux, parfois accompagnés de faibles basculements. Du Cambrien a l'Ordovicien supérieur, les faunes ont un cachet "méditerranéen" nord-gondwanien mais offrent certains rapports avec les régions nord-européennes. Les données paléomagnétiques indiquant la dérive du Gondwana vers des latitudes froides ne collent pas avec l'instal.lation d'une plate-forme carbonatée dans des conditions d'aridité a la limite Cambrien inférieur-moyen.

Published: September 2022

En América del Sur tuvieron lugar, desde el Mioceno superior hasta la actualidad, algunos acontecimientos físicos y biológicos transcendentales, como: glaciaciones; diastrofismo y transgresiones y regresiones marinas; marcados cambios en la distribución de las amplias y variadas planicies australes; conexión geográfica con América del Norte y el consecuente intercambio biótico interamericano; la extinción de los grandes mamíferos en el Pleistoceno superior y una nueva dispersión de los mamíferos inmigrantes de América del Norte, en América del Sur. Estos acontecimientos trajeron consigo una modificación del paisaje en el continente austral e influyeron fuertemente en su estatus actual. En este trabajo, nosotros analizamos la diversidad de los mamíferos terrestres en América del Sur desde el Mioceno superior hasta la actualidad usando el registro conocido actualmente. Hemos restringido este análisis al registro de mamíferos de la provincia de Buenos Aires (Argentina), por ser éste el más completo y desde un punto de vista geológico y paleontológico el mejor conocido de la región austral.

Authors: Martinell Jordi , Domènech Arnal Rosa
Published: September 2022

Bioerosive structures relating to rocky shores active during the Pliocene and associated pebbles in three basins at Baix Ebre Baix Llobregat and Alt Emporda areas (Catalonia, Spain) are reviewed. A high degree of uniformity exists behveen the basins from the ichnological point of view, although each one presents certain particular characteristics. The main bioerosive structures observed are the following: Entobia ichnospp.; borings of cheilostomata bryozoans of Spatipora and Terebripora types; Gastrochaenolites lapidicus and G. torpedo; Meandropolydora ichnosp.; Centrichnus eccentricus; Caulostrepsis taeniola and Caulostrepsis ichnosp.; Trypanites ichnosp.; Genatichnus pentax and bowl-shaped pits attibuted to regular echinoid activity. Apart from these bioerosive structures, the etching scars caused by cirripedes and epilithic bivalves are also common. The extensive presence of the Gastrochaenolites-Entobia ichnocenosis in Neogene rocky shores is emphasized.

En este trabajo se aborda el estudio sistemático de un rico nivel de braquiópodos fósiles procedentes de la parte media de la Serie de los Cabos en el Dominio del Navia y Alto Sil (Zona Asturoccidental-leonesa, NO de España). El material recogido en los alrededores de La Caridad (Asturias) está constituido exclusivamente por moldes de valvas desarticuladas de Protambonites primigenius Havlícek, 1972. La extensa muestra asturiana permite ampliar el conocimiento sobre esta especie, de la que sólo se conocen unos pocos ejemplares en los niveles de transición Cámbrico-Ordovícico de las Cadenas lbéricas. Las conchas estudiadas también aportan nuevos datos sobre el género Protambonites, que, aunque endémico de la Provincia Mediterránea, presenta un amplio interés al ser considerado la forma ancestral del suborden Clitambonitidina. Protambonites procedería del ortidino Billingsella, del que se diferencia, casi exclusivamente, por su sistema de canales del manto, pinado en ambas valvas; este rasgo es característico de los clitambonitidinos y está muy bien desarrollado en los ejemplares asturianos. El material estudiado refuerza la asignación de Protambonites a la familia Polytoechiidae.

Published: September 2022

El estudio paleoicnológico de los sedimentos limo-arenosos de edad Tortoniense superior-Messiniense en el sector SO de la Cuenca del Guadalquivir en Lepe (provincia de Huelva), ha revelado la existencia de una icnoespecie nueva de Gyrolithes, designada como G. variabilis isp. nov. Esta icnoespecie, de la que se han reconocido a su vez cuatro morfotipos, denominados como A, B, C y D, se caracteriza por mostrar una amplia variabilidad en cuanto al diámetro espiral y al espaciado intervuelta de las cámaras. Estos parámetros pueden mantenerse o disminuir independientemente conforme la estructura espiral penetra en el sedimento. Otros caracteres sistemáticos, aunque secundarios, son la presencia de paredes reforzadas de textura irregularmente pelletizada, la uniformidad de las secciones y el gran tamaño medio de las madrigueras en comparación con los otros icnogéneros miocenos existentes.

Middle Pleistocene mortality pattern and fertility: the case of the Atapuerca hominids (Sima de los Huesos site, Burgos, Spain).
Authors: Bermúdez de Castro José María , Díez Fernández-Lomana Juan Carlos
Published: September 2022

The Sima de los Huesos cave site in the Sierra de Atapuerca, northern Spain, has yielded up to the 1994 season a large sample of more than one thousand human fossil remains belonging to at least 32 individuals, which represent a same European Middle Pleistocene biological population. The elaboration of the survivorship curve of this hominid group has emphasized a high mortality among adolescents and young adults, a low older adult mortality and a longevity probably non greater than 40 years. This pattern of mortality resembles to that of other European Middle and early Upper Pleistocene hominids, and is quite different from that observed in recent foraging human groups. Consideration of the main determinants of human fertility suggests that the average interval between successful births in Atapuerca, and probably in ali European Middle Pleistocene populations, was shorter than that of living hunting and gathering peoples, and that the age at menarche and nubility was earlier than those of living girls. lmplications of these findings for the yet unresolved question of body sexual dimorphism in the Middle Pleistocene populations are discussed as well.

La localidad de "Cerrito del Olmo", situada cerca de la aldea de la Almeza (Valencia, España) ha proporcionado diversos restos de estegosaurios: vértebras cervicales, dorsales y caudales, costillas y un fragmento de isquion. Las características morfológicas de las vértebras cervicales, con las costillas cervicales fusionadas, y la morfología de la cara anterior de las vértebras dorsales, nos han permitido asignarlo a Dacentrurus armatus. Los materiales que aparecen en "Cerrito del Olmo" son un conjunto de paleocanales de areniscas intercaladas con margas grises y arcillas rojas que se incluyen en la base del tramo B de los materiales de facies Weald del, sector denominado "Cubeta de Aras de Alpuente" (Hauteriviense superior-Barremiense inferior).
Comentario al artículo Atapuerca (Burgos, España): su contribución a las ciencias del Cuaternario, de E. Aguirre (1995)
Authors: Fernandez de Villalta José
Published: September 2022

En el último número de la Revista Española de Paleontología, vol. 10, n. 01 de enero de 1995, se publica un artículo de E. Aguirre titulado "Atapuerca (Burgos, España): su contribución a las ciencias del Cuaternario". En este artículo, en el pie de la pagina 58 hay el comentario siguiente: "No por la Universidad Complutense, como se ha dicho (Arsuaga, 1993b-1994). La direccion del Proyecto paso a la Complutense en 1982, al encargarse E. Aguirre del Departamento de Paleontología. En alguna publicación (Bermudez de Castro et al., 1992) y algun otro documento se atribuye a la autoría del proyecto a J. F. de Villalta y E. Aguirre, por error. El Dr. Villalta visito las excavaciones. Posiblemente fue consultado por las instituciones; pero no participo en la concepcion, en la elaboracion, o en la direccion del proyecto." Mi participacion en la codireccion de los proyectos fue algo mas que una simple "visita" como se demuestra tambien en la carta fechada el 5 de junio de 1979, en la que E. Aguirre responde a mi propuesta de realizacion de un muestreo sistemático de microfauna.
Palaeoecology and taphonomy of bivalves, mainly Glycymeris insubrica (Brocchi), and bryozoans from the Huelva Sands Fm. (Lower Pliocene, SW Spain).
Authors: Mayoral Alfaro Eduardo , Reguant Salvador
Published: September 2022

The fossiliferous Huelva Sands Formation belonging to the Upper Neogene complex (Lower Pliocene), that is located at the outfall of Tinto and Odiel rivers, southwestern end of Guadalquivir Basin (SW Spain), consists of fine silty and sandy beds with abundant molluscan faunas. These suffered predation and successive colonisation events during their life span and also after death. Eight bivalve communities are distinguished on the basis of their taxonomic contents and trophic classification. Focussing on the abundant species Glycymeris insubrica (Brocchi), we analysed the borings produced as result of predator-prey interaction, and also the commensalism relationships, and colonisation sequences, both when G. insubrica was still alive and post-mortem. The abundant evidence of encrusting on bivalve shells and also free-living bryozoans, gives a detailed view of the scenario after death of most bivalve faunas. The final skeletal concentrations are described using the nomenclature of Kidwell et al. (1986).
A revision of the dasycladale alga Uraloporella (Chlorophycophyta, upper Paleozoic, Asturias, Spain
Authors: Mamet Bernard , Villa Elisa
Published: September 2022

A well-preserved Uraloporella boundstone has been discovered in the Cuera Limestones lithostratigraphic unit of the Carboniferous of Asturias (Spain), in a level of Moscovian age (Podolsky time equivalent). The accompanying microfauna allows us to assign this level to the foraminiferal Zone 25 of Mamet, and to the B subzone of the Fusulinella Zone of van Ginkel. Biometric study of the thalli indicates that ali previously-proposed specles (massíeuxae, radiata, rara, setosa, síeswerdaí) are variants of one single taxon, Uraloporella varíabilis Korde, 1950.
Miocene deep-sea benthic foraminifera from the Atlantic and Indian oceans: diversity patterns and palaeoceanography
Authors: Smart Christopher W. , Murray John W.
Published: September 2022

During the early to middle Miocene of the Atlantic and Indian Oceans there were variations in species diversity of the lower bathyal to abyssal plain (3-4.4 km) benthic foraminifcral assemblages allhough, overall, diversity remained high and comparable with that of the modern environment. The early Miocene was a period of palaeoceanographic change and this has previously been documented both through studies of stable isotopes and the rate of appearances or disappearances of taxa (whether evolutionary or ecological). The diversity oscillations appear to represent shorter period change. The lowest diversities are associated with the peak abundance of bolivinids. Other variations cannot be correlated from one site to another and are thought to represent local environmental changes. During the early-middle Miocene, the diversity of the Atlantic abyssal plain was lower than that of the Indian and Pacific Oceans possibly indicating significant diversity differences between ocean basins. On the basis of limited data, it is possible to speculate that the species diversity of the Miocene was perhaps higher than that of today.

Published: September 2022

Como complemento a la valiosa obra de Guillermo Colom Casanovas, se han estudiado las asociaciones de tintinnoides registradas en cinco perfiles muestreados sistemáticamente en la Sierra Norte de Mallorca. Se han reconocido los géneros Chitinoidella, Praetintinnopsella, Crassicollaria, Calpionella, Tintinnopsella y Remaniella. En general las formas son de pequeña talla, evidenciando poblaciones oceánicas en condiciones ambientales estables, aunque muestran cambios estratigráficamente significativos, correlacionables con los detectados en otras áreas. Siete eventos bioestratigráficos han permitido diferenciar nueve asociaciones para caracterizar la Zona Chitinoidella (Subzonas Dobeni y Boneti), Zona Crassicollaria (Subzonas Remanei e Intermedia) y Zona Calpionella (Subzonas Alpina, Remaniella y Elliptica p.p.). Es posible la correlación con las divisiones bioestratigráficas A1, A2, A , B y C p.p. admitidas para la Fosa Vocontiana. Por primera vez se identifica un intervalo caracterizado por Tintinnopsella doliphormis (Coiom) en la parte inferior de la Zubzona Remaniella de la Zona Calpionella, correlacionable con la parte media de la Zona B de la Fosa Vocontiana. Se ha comprobado la existencia de escasas formas microgranulares y con doble pared (microgranular e hialina) por encima de la base de la Zona Crassicollaria, así como la de pequeñas formas hialinas en la Zona Chitinoidella.
Análisis multivariante de las asociaciones de foraminíferos planctónicos de los sedimentos tortonienses de la Cuenca de la Atalaya (Cordillera Bética, España).
Authors: Serrano Lozano Francisco , Palmquist Barrena Paul , Guerra Merchán Antonio , Romero Alex
Published: September 2022

El estudio bioestraligráfico de los foraminíferos planctónicos de la cuenca de la Atalaya pone de manifiesto la existencia de una secuencia torloniense muy potente y relativamente completa. Se pueden reconocer los intervalos de Neogloboquadrina acostaensis y Neogtoboquadrina humerosa, correspondientes al Tortoniense inferior y superior, respectivamente. Se han realizado análisis de componentes principales y de grupos sobre las asociaciones de foraminíferos planctónicos. Los análisis en modo R muestran, en general, asociaciones de especies con baja correlación, mientras los análisis en modo Q ordenan las muestras en siete grupos, con valores de correlación interna altos y estrecha relación temporal. También se analiza la diversidad y equitabilidad de las muestras. Los resultados obtenidos parecen reflejar un lento y débil, pero progresivo, enfriamiento de las aguas a lo largo del Tortoniense. El brusco cambio de enrollamiento predominante de dextrorso a sinistrorso en Neogloboquadrina se interpreta debido a la entrada de las aguas atlánticas templadas al Mediterráneo. Finalmente, se comparan las variaciones de los porcentajes de planctónicos respecto al total de foraminiferos y de los aglutinantes respecto del conjunto de foraminíferos bentónicos, y se concluye que parecen estar más relacionadas con la evolución de la cuenca y los fenómenos acontecidos en el sector oriental de la Cordillera Bética que con cambios eustáticos importantes.
Latest Albian-earliest Turonian deep-water agglutinated foraminifera in the Bottaccione section (Gubbio, Italy) - Biostratigraphic and palaeoecologic implications.
Authors: Coccioni Rodolfo , Galeotti Simone , Gravili Marco
Published: September 2022

Using semi-quantitative methods, the distribution of deep-water agglutinated foraminifera (DW AF) was analyzed within the Latest Albian-earliest Turonian pelagic limestones of the famous Bottaccione standard section. The characteristic bathyal communities include forms of purely agglutinated "flysch-lype" assemblages and elements which are typical of Upper Cretaceous abyssal environments of the North Atlantic. Well-established planktonic foraminiferal and calcareous nannofossil zonations allowed to directly gauge the stratigraphic ranges of DW AF, contributing to a better chronostratigraphic calibration of a deep-water agglutinated foraminiferal zonation. Differences in ranges of sorne biostratigraphic marker species were observed. The distribution of morphogroups enabled us to interpret levels of oxygenation and organic input. The effects of the Cenomanian-Turonian boundary event (here represented by the ichtyolithic-bituminous-radiolaritic Livello Bonarelli) on the DW AF were explored in detail. A major faunal change in agglutinated foraminiferal communities consisting of a marked decrease in faunal density and species richness was recognized in the middle of the Rotalipora cushmani Zone coinciding with a marked change in sedimentary regimes and related to extensive oxygen depletion on the sea bottom.
Suoidea from the lower Miocene of Cetina de Aragón (Spain).
Authors: Made Jan van der
Published: September 2022

The Suoidea (Mammalia) of the Lower Miocene (Agenian, MN 2a) locality Cetina de Aragón (Spain) are Hyotherium meisneri, Hyotherium major (Suidae) and Propalaeochoerus sp. A (Tayassuidae). Most of the fossils belong to Hyotherium meisneri; all permanent teeth are represented. Up to now this species was known by few material. Currently, H. meisneri and H. major were considered to be either regional subspecies or synonyms. H. meisneri from Cetina is compared to H. major from its type locality St.-Gérand-le-Puy. The morphology does not differ much, but there is an average size difference of 15 %. Size differences of 15 % are common in sympatric species of suoids and tragulids. As the ranges of H. major and H. meisneri overlap in time and space the two taxa are different species, in stead of subspecies. Hyotherium meisneri is one of the oldest known suids, but shows already the outward fiare in the upper canines of the males, which is typical for the Suidae. Within the Hyotheriinae the genus Hyotherium is characterized by elongated premolars. Propalaeochoerus sp. A from Cetina and Montaigu is similar in size to Propalaeochoerus sp. B from Tomerdingen, but differs in having larger posterior molars and smaller premolars, it might be a direct descendant. These tayassuids and Propalaeochoeruss elaverensis differ from all other Palaeochoerus-like tayassuids, including Palaeochoerus? pusillus, in the elongated last upper molar.
Remarks on the late Visean crinoids from the Cantabrian Mountains and Menorca (NW Spain and Balearic Island).
Authors: Herbig Hans-Georg
Published: September 2022

Crinoids known from the griotte facies of the Genicera Formation (Late Tournaisian - Early Namurian), Cantabrian Mountains, are listed. The Poteriocrinitid Balearocrinus cantabricus Herbig (Late Visean - ?Early Namurian) is the most common species. Like its close relative Balearocrinus breimeri Bourrouilh & Termier from Late Visean strata of Menorca, it is typically adapted to pelagic realms. Discrimination of the morphological similar shallow-shelf dweller Rhabdocrinus, which is not present in Spain, is discussed, as well as relations to Culmicrinus.
Construcciones arrecifales del Devónico de la Cordillera Cantábrica (NO de España).
Authors: Soto Fernández Francisco , Méndez Bedia Isabel , Fernández Martínez Esperanza
Published: September 2022

En la región astur-leonesa de la Cordillera Cantábrica existió un desarrollo arrecifal importante durante el Devónico. Las construcciones arrecifales más ampliamente representadas se originaron a fines del Devónico Inferior (Emsiense Superior) y durante el Devónico Medio (Givetiense), coincidiendo con el depósito de las formaciones carbonatadas Moniello-Santa Lucía y Candás-Portilla, respectivamente. Episodios arrecifales de menor importancia se produjeron, además, en niveles estratigráficos más bajos (Grupo Rañeces-La Vid, Emsiense Superior) y más altos (Formación Piñeres-Nocedo, Frasniense). Las bioconstrucciones más frecuentes corresponden a biostromos, aunque existe también un desarrollo de biohermos. En líneas generales, en la Formación Moniello-Santa Lucía, los estromatopóridos son los principales responsables de las estructuras arrecifales, mientras que en las restantes formaciones, las bioconstrucciones más comunes están edificadas por corales rugosos y tabulados. La integración de los datos obtenidos a partir del análisis paleontológico y de estudios sedimentológicos previos, permite realizar una serie de consideraciones paleoecológicas sobre las condiciones ambientales más favorables para el desarrollo de las bioconstrucciones referidas, así como sobre el papel jugado por los diferentes organismos bioconstructores.
