La Edad Media en el arte postal franquista : De la Guerra Civil a la "Transición"

A lo largo de la vasta historia de España, los símbolos pertenecientes a la "Edad Heroica Castellana" (desde el nombramiento de los Jueces hasta la gesta del Cid) han sido utilizados políticamente con signos diversos. En el arte postal del período franquista a dichas imágenes se agregan otras, pertenecientes a un imaginario medieval más amplio, con el cual el régimen se define dentro de los límites de un rígido nacionalismo católico, cuya beligerancia deberá ser matizada y reformulada ulteriormente

Species list of the flora on Banks Island

While engaged in palaeo-botanical and plantgeographical field work on Banks Island, N. W. T. during the summer of 1973, 225 new plants could be recorded for the vicinities of Sachs Harbour, Shoran Lake and Johnson Point; 21 of them were new for Banks Island, 7 for the western Canadian archipelago.

Multi-temporal mapping of seagrass cover, species and biomass of the Eastern Banks, Moreton Bay, Australia, with links to shapefiles

The spatial and temporal dynamics of seagrasses have been studied from the leaf to patch (100 m**2) scales. However, landscape scale (> 100 km**2) seagrass population dynamics are unresolved in seagrass ecology. Previous remote sensing approaches have lacked the temporal or spatial resolution, or ecologically appropriate mapping, to fully address this issue. This paper presents a robust, semi-automated object-based image analysis approach for mapping dominant seagrass species, percentage cover and above ground biomass using a time series of field data and coincident high spatial resolution satellite imagery. The study area was a 142 km**2 shallow, clear water seagrass habitat (the Eastern Banks, Moreton Bay, Australia). Nine data sets acquired between 2004 and 2013 were used to create seagrass species and percentage cover maps through the integration of seagrass photo transect field data, and atmospherically and geometrically corrected high spatial resolution satellite image data (WorldView-2, IKONOS and Quickbird-2) using an object based image analysis approach. Biomass maps were derived using empirical models trained with in-situ above ground biomass data per seagrass species. Maps and summary plots identified inter- and intra-annual variation of seagrass species composition, percentage cover level and above ground biomass. The methods provide a rigorous approach for field and image data collection and pre-processing, a semi-automated approach to extract seagrass species and cover maps and assess accuracy, and the subsequent empirical modelling of seagrass biomass. The resultant maps provide a fundamental data set for understanding landscape scale seagrass dynamics in a shallow water environment. Our findings provide proof of concept for the use of time-series analysis of remotely sensed seagrass products for use in seagrass ecology and management.
