Sampling effort required for fitting spatially explicit models of species distribution dynamics
Understanding and accurately predicting species distribution dynamics is essential for effective biodiversity conservation and management. Spatial dynamic occupancy models (SpDynOcc models) provide a valuable framework for ...
Hand Gestures Facilitate the Acquisition of Novel Phonemic Contrasts When They Appropriately Mimic Target Phonetic Features
Purpose: Research has shown that observing hand gestures mimicking pitch movements or rhythmic patterns can improve the learning of second language (L2) suprasegmental features. However, less is known about the effects of ...
Is Zagreb Green Enough? Influence of Urban Green Spaces on Mitigation of Urban Heat Island: A Satellite-Based Study
The urban heat island phenomenon is a climatic condition in which urbanized areas exhibit higher temperature values than their natural surroundings. This occurs due to an unbalanced energy budget caused by the extensive ...
The protection of political minorities in the European context
This paper defends the importance of guaranteeing an adequate status to the political opposition as the only possible counterweight, in current political regimes, to majority power. The starting hypothesis is to consider ...
Biodiversity monitoring in Europe: User and policy needs
To achieve the goals of the 2030 Global Biodiversity Framework, the EuropeanBiodiversity Strategy, and the EU Green Deal, biodiversity monitoring is critical.Monitoring efforts in Europe, however, suffer from gaps and ...
Using genetic algorithm based methods for optimal thermal energy storage tank design
This research introduces a novel approach to thermal energy storage (TES) tank design by integrating physics-based modelling with genetic algorithms (GAs). Traditional TES designs face inherent limitations in balancing ...
La formación de personal en la administración: propuesta de mejora del modelo de formación del PTGAS de la Universitat de València
Objetivos: se presenta una investigación cuya finalidad fue analizar el modelo de formación actual de la Universitat de València para su Personal Técnico, de Gestión y de Administración y Servicios (PTGAS) con el objeto ...
Explicit 2-power torsion of genus 2 curves over finite fields
We give an efficient explicit algorithm to find the structure and generators of the maximal 2-subgroup of the Jacobian of a genus 2 curve over a finite field of odd characteristic. We use the 2-torsion points as seeds to ...
Assessing the role of habitat, climate, and anthropization gradients on terrestrial mammal diversity in the western Mediterranean basin
Mammal species globally exhibit distribution patterns conditioned by environmental conditions and human impact. The Mediterranean basin provides an ideal system to study these effects due to its diverse climate, and habitat ...
Training with embodied musical activities has positive effects on unfamiliar language imitation skills
Research shows that musical expertise benefits second language (L2) phonological learning [1], however little is known on the potential effects of training musical melodic and rhythmic skills on language production skills. ...
SAVI 360º i tour virtual: simulació virtual interactiva segona generació
Aquest projecte és una continuació de la innovació docent SAVI (Simulació Audiovisual Interactiva), on s’introdueixen elements nous i innovadors com la gravació 360º i un tour virtual. Es recrearà un entorn hospitalari ...
Biocontrol of Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis in raw meat using bacteriophage-loaded gelatine-pullulan composite films incorporating cellulose nanofibers
This study aimed to develop a novel bioactive film based on a 1:4 gelatine and pullulan copolymer (GEL20:PUL80) reinforced with cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) and incorporating lytic bacteriophages (S16 and FO1a) for the ...
Thermal characterization of mountain rivers regulated by hydropower schemes. Examples from the Central Pyrenees
Los aprovechamientos hidroeléctricos alteran el régimen térmico del agua de los cursos fluviales en cuencas de montaña. Estos cambios de temperatura repercuten en numerosas variables fisicoquímicas, las cuales, a su vez, ...
Use of Long-Chain Synthetic Phenolic Antioxidants to Produce Chromium Tanned Leather without Risk of Hexavalent Chromium Formation
Chromium tanned leather is the widest form of leather tanning across the world, but it might involve a risk of hexavalent chromium formation, which is restricted in leather products above 3 mg/kg. Among other conditions, ...
Hand-clapping to the rhythm of newly learned words improves L2 pronunciation: Evidence from Catalan and Chinese learners of French
Previous research has shown that rhythmic training enhances phonological speech processing (e.g., [1, 2, 3, 4]). Yet little is known about whether rhythmic training can also help to improve pronunciation in a second language ...
