El proyecto consiste en la renovacion (rediseño y nueva construccion) del portal web de la asociacion de la tamborrada Iriyarena, que organiza la Unibertsitateko Danborrada. El actual sitio es un sitio estatico que necesita una actualizacion hacia un entorno dinamico. Dado que Iriyarena es una asociacion sin animo de lucro, todas las herramientas que se empleen deben ser de codigo abierto y gratuito que incluya los principales estandares web.

Daily scale wintertime sea surface temperature and IPC-Navidad variability in the southern Bay of Biscay from 1981 to 2010

The combination of remotely sensed gappy Sea surface temperature (SST) images with the missing data filling DINEOF (data interpolating empirical orthogonal functions) technique, followed by a principal component analysis of the reconstructed data, has been used to identify the time evolution and the daily scale variability of the wintertime surface signal of the Iberian Poleward Current (IPC), or Navidad, during the 1981-2010 period. An exhaustive comparison with the existing bibliography, and the vertical temperature and salinity profiles related to its extremes over the Bay of Biscay area, show that the obtained time series accurately reflect the IPC-Navidad variability. Once a time series for the evolution of the SST signal of the current over the last decades is well established, this time series is used to propose a physical mechanism in relation to the variability of the IPC-Navidad, involving both atmospheric and oceanic variables. According to the proposed mechanism, an atmospheric circulation anomaly observed in both the 500 hPa and the surface levels generates atmospheric surface level pressure, wind-stress and heat-flux anomalies. In turn, those surface level atmospheric anomalies induce mutually coherent SST and sea level anomalies over the North Atlantic area, and locally, in the Bay of Biscay area. These anomalies, both locally over the Bay of Biscay area and over the North Atlantic, are in agreement with several mechanisms that have separately been related to the variability of the IPC-Navidad, i.e. the south-westerly winds, the joint effect of baroclinicity and relief (JEBAR) effect, the topographic beta effect and a weakened North Atlantic gyre.

Variability in the air-sea interaction patterns and timescales within the south-eastern Bay of Biscay, as observed by HF radar data

Two high-frequency (HF) radar stations were installed on the coast of the south-eastern Bay of Biscay in 2009, providing high spatial and temporal resolution and large spatial coverage of currents in the area for the first time. This has made it possible to quantitatively assess the air-sea interaction patterns and timescales for the period 2009-2010. The analysis was conducted using the Barnett-Preisendorfer approach to canonical correlation analysis (CCA) of reanalysis surface winds and HF radar-derived surface currents. The CCA yields two canonical patterns: the first wind-current interaction pattern corresponds to the classical Ekman drift at the sea surface, whilst the second describes an anticyclonic/cyclonic surface circulation. The results obtained demonstrate that local winds play an important role in driving the upper water circulation. The wind-current interaction timescales are mainly related to diurnal breezes and synoptic variability. In particular, the breezes force diurnal currents in waters of the continental shelf and slope of the south-eastern Bay. It is concluded that the breezes may force diurnal currents over considerably wider areas than that covered by the HF radar, considering that the northern and southern continental shelves of the Bay exhibit stronger diurnal than annual wind amplitudes.

Caballos de monte y carne de potro. Análisis antropológico de un proceso contemporáneo de construcción identitaria, cultural y económica en la Montaña Alavesa

El fenómeno estudiado consiste en una estrategia de desarrollo local emprendida en algunas zonas de montaña de Álava. Se trata de la revitalización sociocultural y económica de las mismas a partir de la recuperación, mejora y refuncionalización de una raza equina autóctona: la yegua de monte alavés. Este proyecto cumple una doble función, la reafirmacion identitaria de la comunidad por un lado y la promoción económica del lugar mediante el producto local por otro. Esta estrategia queda anualmente reafirmada ante la comunidad local y la audiencia gracias al poder evocador de la fiesta. Por ello, se estudia con particular interés "El Día del Caballo en la Montaña Alavesa". A pesar de que tanto la estrategia como la fiesta estudiadas no representan prácticas aisladas dentro del marco rural europeo actual, este caso en concreto posee particularidades que proceden de la propia naturaleza del elemento patrimonializado, el caballo y más concretamente, la carne de potro. Al éxito que la construcción del animal como símbolo local ha tenido para la comunidad local se le contrapone algunos límites culturales como las aversiones alimentarias hacia esta carne en nuestra cultura. A partir del marco teórico ofrecido por la antropología de la alimentación, la antropología del desarrollo y la antropología del patrimonio, la autora investiga de una manera holística el fenómeno propuesto.
