Un projecte didàctic que ensenya a mirar: 'Ciutat, territori i paisatge' s'ha experimentat en onze instituts de Catalunya

‘Ciutat, territori i paisatge’ consta d’uns materials didàctics, formats per unes làmines de paisatges, un conjunt d’activitats didàctiques i un web interactiu, elaborats pel Departament de Política Territorial i Obres Públiques conjuntament amb el Departament d’ Educació i l’ Observatori del Paisatge i adreçat a estudiants d’educació secundària. Aquests materials poden tenir interès, també, per als educadors en el lleure i per a totes les persones preocupades pel deteriorament que estan patint alguns paisatges que considerem tradicionals i emblemàtics, especialment els dels entorns de les ciutats o els propers a les grans infraestructures

Sobre la identitat dels Matiners a les comarques del N.E. de Catalunya

This study attempts to throw some light on the identity of the Matiners of the regions of north-eastern Catalonia by analizing a notebook which was a register of rebels. This notebook gives the age, geographical origin and profession of the rebels. The War of the matiners (1846-49) was a Catalan rebellion framed within the context of popular opposition to the regime of the moderates, and in the midst of a general crisis. Themen who formed the groups of ((trabucaires)) were particulary young (the problem of recriting must not be forgotten), and came from the country, the crafts, and industry, and were militarized above all in the interior regions

Estudi de viabilitat per a l'execució d'un pla parcial urbanístic

El projecte se centra en l’estudi i valoració de les despeses i beneficis derivats del desenvolupament d’un pla parcial, per tal de poder escollir entre dues opcions, la venda de solars o bé la venda d’habitatges. S’ha elaborat eines de càlcul per fer un estudi urbanístic i de viabilitat per a la venda dels solars o habitatges. I s’han estudiat els aspectes legals i normatius que envolten l’activitat urbanística, i la seva aplicació

Imposicions estructurals en el drenatge de la conca del riu Onyar (Girona)

The Onyar River basin is situated in the depression of la Selva. His origins are related to tectonic activity during Neogen in this region. In his evolution, we note a slowly and continuous downfall which directs the morphodinamical behaviour. In this sense, the drainage network has a directional trend towards the north, as consecuence of fault systems, and specially the N-S oriented one. A fault of this system has an important influence in the basin morphology, directs the drainage towards the north and avoids a closely drainage in the basin

Contribución al estudio morfolitológico del sector costero central del macizo de Begur (Girona)

This paper makes a contribution to the knowledge of the coastal fringe morphology of the ‘Macizo de Begur’. A lithological study, macro and microscopic, has been carried out of a variety of a series of metamorphic, plutonic, phyllonianic and effusive rocks

Dos nous afloraments volcànics a l'Alt Empordà (Girona)

Two unknown volcanic outcrops in the Alt Emporda (Girona) are described in this paper . We present their exact situation and a description of their occurrence and their mineralogical and petrological characteristics. Bothhave been classified as alkali-olivine basalts and they probably extruded during the Neogen period

Aportació al coneixement de la dinàmica fluvial en la conca del riu Onyar (Girona)

Two decay rates are distinguished in the discharge hydrograph of the Onyar River, using Maillet's formula. In this way, we can know which Kina of influence is made by geomorphology and rainfall distribution on fluvial processes

Morfolitología de las terrazas del Ter en Girona

It is a contribution to the study of the terraces of the river Ter along its mid-course in the town of Girona, since that is the last speace where it is still possible to observe four of these terraces with clear characteristics of climatical deposition. Itsmorphological peculiarities are described as well as the morphometrical and lithological parameters of its pebbles. These terraces are compared with others which have been studied in other areas of the regions and conclusions are drawn concerning deposition, source àrea and chronology

Presencia del paleogeno bajo los sedimentos neogénicos de Vilablareix (Girona)

This study makes clear the existence of a paleogenical red basal level (Pontils Fm.) in the Vilablareix àrea, under the mio-pliocenical cover of the Girona plain, enlargening the surface known go far of that level

Las fuentes naturales del término municipal de Sant Feliu de Guíxols (Girona)

The behaviour of 21 natural springs in a granític massif is studied in this survey. Geomorphological features of the zone are described as well as water circulation and rising 25 parametres of each of them are analysed ans conclusions are withdrawn regarding geological conditions of rising, course, chemism and potability

Aportaciones al conocimiento de la geología de Bac Grillera (prepirineo, Girona)

The Bac Grillera nappe (Prepirenean of Girona) shows a stratigraphic section composed of two unconformi ty-bounded units. The lower unit is composed by rethian (marly limestones) and liassic (brechoid marly limestones and limestones). The upper unit (sandstones and marly limestones) belongs to the upper Cretaceous (Campanian)

Cronologia dels travertins de Llorà (Girona)

With the aim of radiocarbon dating Llora travertines, chemical and isotopic data of strearn water and present travertines have been analyzed. The purpose is to determine the radiocarbon activity of present travertines in order to assign an initial radiocarbon activity to the old ones. Applying this methodology we conclude that travertines are from Holocen age around 4.000 years BP

Aportaciones al conocimiento del Cretácico del macizo del Montgrí (Girona)

ln this paper we describe a stratigraphic column of the Cretaceous of the Montgrí. This description is based on several partial stratigraphic cross sections as well as on the lithological character of the different levels and their faunal content, specially megafossils

Dinàmica d'esporulació del fong Stemphylium vesicarium en perera i determinació de la viabilitat dels conidis en funció de paràmetres ambientals

L’objectiu del treball és per una banda determinar la dinàmica d’esporulació i emissió de conidis de Stemphylium vesicarium en finques comercials de perera, i per altra banda determinar la viabilitat de la capacitat infectiva i germinativa d’aquests conidis al llarg del temps segons diferents condicions ambientals

Las cuevas prehistóricas de Serinyà (Pla de l’Estany, Girona)

The Reclau Caves, which form part of the Serinyà Prehistoric Caves Park (Pla de l’Estany, Girona), are shelters formed by waterfall travertines which have been in turn affected by karstification phenomena. Though relatively small, these cavities were big enough to held human occupation. Its evolution has seen the falling of blocks and infilling of terrigenous materials. Thus, the caves were completely filled and had most of their original roofs fallen. The first excavations of these caves were made in the mid 1940s and they continued, albeit with some interruptions, until present times. The caves were occupied by humans since the late Middle Pleistocene until the Holocene. Hence, the main occupation periods can be attributed to the Middle Paleolithic and Upper Paleolithic cultures. Given the existence of these sites, the project of an archeological park was started and its first phase opened to the public in the summer of 1997. The creation of this park has led to the protection of the three main caves of the site (Arbreda, Mollet and Reclau Viver Caves). The caves have also been adapted and singposted to open them to the public. Other facilities of the park include a reception building and an activity area. The caves can be visited in guided tours which include the projection of a film, the visit to the permanent exhibition room, the three main caves and the participation in some prehistoric-related activities
