Tales of a grandfather : being stories taken from Scottish history

Sir Walter Scott

Statistics of the National soil test database of France

In France, farmers commission about 250,000 soil-testing analyses per year to assist them managing soil fertility. The number and diversity of origin of the samples make these analyses an interesting and original information source regarding cultivated topsoil variability. Moreover, these analyses relate to several parameters strongly influenced by human activity (macronutrient contents, pH...), for which existing cartographic information is not very relevant. Compiling the results of these analyses into a database makes it possible to re-use these data within both a national and temporal framework. A database compilation relating to data collected over the period 1990-2009 has been recently achieved. So far, commercial soil-testing laboratories approved by the Ministry of Agriculture have provided analytical results from more than 2,000,000 samples. After the initial quality control stage, analytical results from more than 1,900,000 samples were available in the database. The anonymity of the landholders seeking soil analyses is perfectly preserved, as the only identifying information stored is the location of the nearest administrative city to the sample site. We present in this dataset a set of statistical parameters of the spatial distributions for several agronomic soil properties. These statistical parameters are calculated for 4 different nested spatial entities (administrative areas: e.g. regions, departments, counties and agricultural areas) and for 4 time periods (1990-1994, 1995-1999, 2000-2004, 2005-2009). Two kinds of agronomic soil properties are available: the firs one correspond to the quantitative variables like the organic carbon content and the second one corresponds to the qualitative variables like the texture class. For each spatial unit and temporal period, we calculated the following statistics stets: the first set is calculated for the quantitative variables and corresponds to the number of samples, the mean, the standard deviation and, the 2-,4-,10-quantiles; the second set is calculated for the qualitative variables and corresponds to the number of samples, the value of the dominant class, the number of samples of the dominant class, the second dominant class, the number of samples of the second dominant class.

Historia de un hecho regional canónico : el paso de los Andes

Desde el concepto de canon como el modelo impuesto por un grupo de poder, el presente trabajo analiza la canonización de la figura sanmartiniana en el cruce de los Andes, según relatos de autores de la clase dirigente. En los cuales se compara este personaje con Napoleón, Aníbal, Alejandro Magno y otras significativas figuras de la tradición occidental. Tres narraciones edifican la imagen de un héroe romántico, luchador a favor de la libertad y protector de los pueblos que libera. San Martín como paladín democrático frente a la tiranía despótica de los españoles, aparece en el relato de Gerónimo Espejo “El paso de los Andes". Este rico trabajo de prolijo historiador pondera la hazaña por sobre las de Napoleón y Aníbal. Bartolomé Mitre en su “Historia de San Martín", enfoca al héroe como paladín de unidad americana en la causa de la independencia, con una maestría superior a los cruces clásicos de Napoleón y Aníbal, parangonándolo con el de Bolívar en los Andes ecuatorianos. Ricardo Rojas en El santo de la espada fabrica una imagen religiosa de San Martín y lo iguala a héroes cristianos como Parsifal, Lohengrin y el Cid Campeador. El parangón con Napoleón. Aníbal y Alejandro Magno, se ve apoyado por la iconografía argentina de la época. La estatua más popular de San Martín repite la pose del retrato de Napoleón por David. Este, a su vez, está inspirado en mayólicas de Alejandro que lo representan en similar postura. Así, la imagen del héroe argentino en su cruce de los Andes se inserta con éxito en la tradición occidental.

History of professional guidance in Argentina

Professional guidance has developed in Argentina since 1940, influenced by the guidance which in that time came from Spain, France, Belgium and Switzerland. The paper analyzes the first experiences in professional guidance, developed both in the great industrial cities as Buenos Aires and Rosario, and little urban centres as Tucumán or San Luis. The institutional and political context of such experiences is also analyzed, as well as the State's full support of them.

Chemistry of low-temperature hydrothermal altered basement of ODP Site 129-801

Low-temperature hydrothermal alteration of basement from Site 801 was studied through analyses of the mineralogy, chemistry, and oxygen isotopic compositions of the rocks. The more than 100-m section of 170-Ma basement consists of 60 m of tholeiitic basalt separated from the overlying 60 m of alkalic basalts by a >3-m-thick Fe-Si hydrothermal deposit. Four alteration types were distinguished in the basalts: (1) saponite-type (Mg-smectite) rocks are generally slightly altered, exhibiting small increases in H2O, d18O, and oxidation; (2) celadonite-type rocks are also slightly altered, but exhibit uptake of alkalis in addition to hydration and oxidation, reflecting somewhat greater seawater/rock ratios than the saponite type; (3) Al-saponite-type alteration resulted in oxidation, hydration, and alkali and 18O uptake and losses of Ca and Na due to the breakdown of plagioclase and clinopyroxene; and (4) blue-green rocks exhibit the greatest chemical changes, including oxidation, hydration, alkali uptake, and loss of Ca, Na, and Mg due to the complete breakdown of plagioclase and olivine to K-feldspar and phyllosilicates. Saponite- and celadonite-type alteration of the tholeiite section occurred at a normal mid-ocean ridge basalt spreading center at temperatures <20°C. Near- or off-axis intrusion of an alkali basalt magma at depth reinitiated hydrothermal circulation, and the Fe-Si hydrothermal deposit formed from cool (<60°C) distal hydrothermal fluids. Focusing of fluid flow in the rocks immediately underlying the deposit resulted in the extensive alteration of the blue-green rocks at similar temperatures. Al-saponite alteration of the subsequent alkali basalts overlying the deposit occurred at relatively high water/rock ratios as part of the same low-temperature circulation system that formed the hydrothermal deposit. Abundant calcite formed in the rocks during progressive "aging" of the crust during its long history away from the spreading center.
