En esta web se pretende explicar la estructura que adopta la transmisión del saber en el mundo islámico medieval a través del estudio de las formas en las que se relacionan maestros y discípulos. La transmisión del conocimiento en el mundo arabomusulmán medieval se realiza prioritariamente a través del contacto personal entre maestro y discípulo. Dicha transmisión no se realiza por un único canal, sino que los alumnos solían recurrir a varios maestros que transmitían una misma pieza de información. Estas circunstancias provocaron que la red de transmisión del conocimiento adoptase la topología de red de malla parcial, de acuerdo con la terminología actualmente empleada. Nuestro objetivo es analizar desde un punto de vista estructural y funcional esa red para hallar las pautas que regían el proceso. Este trabajo, que tomará como caso de estudio al-Andalus, es posible gracias a la base de datos Prosopografía de los ulemas de al-Andalus (PUA), que reúne y clasifica todo el material documental necesario, enfocado a los actores del sistema. Para las obras transmitidas se utilizará la Historia de los Autores y Transmisores Andalusíes (HATA), dirigida por Maribel Fierro. Dada la amplitud de ambas fuentes de información se han seleccionado unos casos de estudio., Proyecto FFI2016-75295-P.

- Oleander_reconstructions: each netcdf file in this folder corresponds to the simulation done to reconstruct sea surface salinity SMAP observations for each day having in situ observations from the M/V Oleander thermosalinograph. - Weekly_reconstructions: each netcdf file in this folder corresponds to the simulation done to reconstruct weekly sea surface salinity SMAP observations. Note that the period between 2019-06-19 and 2019-07-22, when SMAP sea surface salinity data were not produced, is excluded.-- In each netcdf file: The dimension “traj” refers to the identifier for each simulated particle. The dimension “obs” refers to each time step. To plot maps of the reconstructed salinity fields, plot the particles at their final position with their salinity value. This is: lon(all indices, last index). lat(all indices, last index), sss_adv(all indices). The date in each netcdf file name is the date of the final position, i.e., the date of the reconstructed field., Lagrangian reconstruction of gridded sea surface salinity (SSS) observations made by the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) satellite in the northwest Atlantic Ocean. Using altimetric geostrophic currents, we numerically advected SMAP SSS fields to produce a Lagrangian reconstruction that represents small scales. For more details of the Lagrangian reconstruction method, see the associated paper “Lagrangian reconstruction to extract small-scale salinity variability from SMAP observations” available at https://doi.org/10.1029/2020JC016477. In this paper we compare the reconstructed fields with in situ observations from the M/V Oleander thermosalinograph and we evaluate the small-scale SSS variability of the northwest Atlantic Ocean., This dataset has been developed in the framework of the (Sub)mesoscale Salinity Variability at Fronts project (NNX17AK04G) funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)., Peer reviewed

Mountains shelter high biological diversity and constitute important barriers for species distributions. They often contain sets of species whose populations occur at their range limit (peripheral species), which according to the “Centre-Periphery” hypothesis are expected to perform worse and be more vulnerable than in central positions. Our study investigates this hypothesis by examining the potential vulnerability (abundance and ecological characteristics) of the flora of the Pyrenees, a major biogeographical crossroad containing a large proportion of the total European plant diversity. We also assess the contribution of peripheral plants in lists of conservation. We compared regional area of occupancy, local abundance, elevation, habitat and soil type preferences, of more than 2,600 central, peripheral and endemic native vascular plants of the Pyrenees mountains. Their conservation status was also assessed at different spatial scales. A quarter of Pyrenean species are at their distributional limit. Like endemics, peripherals have lower continental and regional occupancy than central ones, but their local abundance does not differ significantly. Endemics and peripherals are also more likely to be soil specialists at high elevation, mainly in (sub)alpine grasslands and rocky areas. Although occurring in different ecological conditions, peripheral species at their rear-edge (mainly Boreoalpine and Eurosiberian) tend to be more widespread regionally but equally abundant locally than leading- edge species (mainly Mediterranean). Peripheral taxa constitute a large portion of Pyrenean species protected at different geographic or administrative scales (31-56%), of highest importance in the Pyrenean red list. Peripheral species show contrasting ecology at the leading- and rear-edge, contribute substantially to the high plant diversity of the Pyrenean biogeographical crossroad and to the lists of priority species for conservation. Integrative biogeographical assessments of the rarity and ecology of mountain floras provide a better overview than administrative ones to establish priorities for conservation., OPCC-POCTEFA EFA (235/1) and VULBIMON (CGL2017-90040-R)., Peer reviewed

No se ha usado datos de estudios preliminares.-- Datos recogidos en experimentos realizados en el Laboratorio de Investigaciones Marinas y Acuicultura (LIMIA) en Mallorca. Los individuos experimentales fueron capturados en la Bahía de Palma, Mallorca., This data set is supplementary material for the article "Types of behaviour related to aggressiveness in pearlescent fish". Animal personality has a very relevant implication in a multitude of eco-evolutionary processes. It is a topic very approached in freshwater fish, not so in marine species, because its captivity is a challenge to reproduce its natural habitat. this is the first evidence of behavioural traits in the pearly razorfish. For this, we designed experiments in the laboratory, where the experimental individuals were subjected to the mirror test—a widely used test to determine each individual's aggressiveness. By not recognizing their reflection in the mirror, fish perceive their reflection as the intrusion of another individual into their territory. Thanks to these experiments, we were able to determine each individual's aggressiveness score, finding significant differences between individuals. Differences found regardless of height, sex or individual condition. These findings suggest that this species' aggressiveness may have a genetic origin, as has been demonstrated in other species., Este trabajo ha recibido financiación del Proyecto CLOCKS I + D + i (subvención no.

(2020). Formulations of Rancid and Winey-Vinegary Artificial Olfactory Reference Materials (AORMs) for Virgin Olive Oil Sensory Evaluation. Foods, 9 (12), 1870, https://doi.org/10.3390/foods9121870. Panel test is the only sensory method included in international regulations of virgin olive oils and its application is compulsory. At present, there is no reference material (RM), in the strict sense of the term, to be used as a validated standard for sensory defects of virgin olive oil with which tasters can be trained. Usually, real samples of virgin olive oils assessed by many panels for the International Olive Council (IOC) ring tests are used as materials of reference in panel training and control. These data correspond to the work carried out to formulate RM that emulate rancid and winey-vinegary defects found in virgin olive oils with the aim of providing reproducible RMs that can be prepared on demand. Under the criteria of representativeness, verified with the advice of the IOC, aroma persistence, and simplicity in formulation, two RMs for winey-vinegary and rancid were obtained by diluting acetic acid and ethanol (winey-vinegary defect) and hexanal (rancid defect) together with other compounds that are used to modify aroma and avoid non-natural sensory notes., OLEUM (Advanced solutions for assuring the overall authenticity and quality of olive oil), funded by European Union, Horizon 2020 Programme.

There are 2 datastes corresponding to 2 different analysis: "UTM 1x1 km dataset" based on NDVI change at UTM scale (1 km2) and "MU Dataset" based on NDVI change at plant populations level., Landscape is in continuous transformation due to both anthropogenic and natural disturb-ances, which may have a large impact on the most vulnerable elements of biodiversity. Here we quantify vegetation changes over the past 35 years (1984–2018) and assess how these changes may impact threatened plants over a heterogeneous and highly diverse region in southern Europe. To achieve this goal, we first estimated the intensity and duration of gains and losses of vegetation changes based on NDVI and NBR indices from Landsat time series, using the LandTrendr algorithm on Google Earth Engine. Then, we tested if: 1) Natura 2000 (N2000) areas have experienced lower vegetation changes than non protected areas and thus are effective in protecting threatened plants, 2) vegetation changes around threatened plants differ across habitats and depending on the protection status of the area where they occur, and 3) the probability of occurrence of populations of threatened plant species increases on more stable places (i.e. lower vegetation changes). Results indicated an overall increase of vegetation, or greening trend, although N2000 areas experienced less gains and losses than non protected areas, which support their role in preserving habitats and slowing down human-induced land cover changes. Populations of threatened species tend to concentrate in places of lower changes irrespective of the spatial scale used for the analysis, the particular habitat they occur, and their inclusion within protected areas. Our approach demonstrates how monitoring vegetation changes by long-term remote sensing can help in the challenge of assessing both cryptic landscape transformation processes in protected areas, and potential external threats for priority plants in a comprehensive, fast and objective way. The conclusions drawn from this study are expected to serve as guidelines for a more effective conservation management in other environmentally heterogeneous regions., Peer reviewed
