Jules Verne y la aventura del viatge extraordinari. 'Jules Verne y la aventura del viaje extraordinario'.

Jules Verne es uno de los autores mas prolíficos de la novela de aventuras. Hoy en día, aunque hayan pasado 100 años de su muerte, sigue siendo un referente al hablar de novela de aventuras.

Una propuesta didáctica para la clase de ciencias : los viajes de Jules Verne.

Se realiza una propuesta didáctica para la clase de Ciencias a través de la obra literaria de Julio Verne. A Julio Verne se le considera el creador de la novela científica y se le denomina el novelista de la ciencia y las exploraciones. Sus obras destacan por una trama rápida y ágil, la solidez de los datos científicos que aporta y unos personajes muy atractivos. 'La vuelta al mundo en 80 días', 'Veinte mil leguas de viaje submarino', 'Viaje al centro de la tierra' o 'De la tierra a la luna' son algunas de sus novelas más conocidas. Se ofrecen tres propuestas didácticas: la medición de distancias y superficies; la explicación de la semejanza de triángulos a través de la novela 'La isla misteriosa'; y la explicación de conceptos como paralelo, meridiano, geodesia y topografía, a través de la obra 'Aventuras de tres rusos y tres ingleses en el África Austral'.

Jules Payot y 'La educación de la voluntad' : un programa ¿laicista? de reforma educativa y social a través de la Universidad.

Se parte de un estudio crítico del contenido del libro para llegar a varias reflexiones conclusivas sobre la teoría de la educación moral de carácter psicológico y la actitud de Payot ante la religión. Finalmente se expone la escasa relación de las ideas de Payot con lo que actualmente defienden los 'laicistas'. Se plantea un importante enigma histórico 'cómo y por qué se ha trasmutado con tanta rapidez una moral y un ideal político cuyos creadores pensaban que estaba llamado a consolidarse y perdurar, en tanto que expresión de un orden democrático justo y benéfico'.

Simulating dynamic crop growth with an adapted land surface model – JULES-SUCROS: model development and validation

The increasing demand for ecosystem services, in conjunction with climate change, is expected to signif- icantly alter terrestrial ecosystems. In order to evaluate the sustainability of land and water resources, there is a need for a better understanding of the relationships between crop production, land surface characteristics and the energy and water cycles. These relationships are analysed using the Joint UK Land Environment Simulator (JULES). JULES includes the full hydrological cycle and vegetation effects on the energy, water, and carbon fluxes. However, this model currently only simulates land surface processes in natural ecosystems. An adapted version of JULES for agricultural ecosystems, called JULES-SUCROS has therefore been developed. In addition to overall model improvements, JULES-SUCROS includes a dynamic crop growth structure that fully fits within and builds upon the biogeochemical modelling framework for natural vegetation. Specific agro-ecosystem features such as the development of yield-bearing organs and the phenological cycle from sowing till harvest have been included in the model. This paper describes the structure of JULES-SUCROS and evaluates the fluxes simulated with this model against FLUXNET measurements at 6 European sites. We show that JULES-SUCROS significantly improves the correlation between simulated and observed fluxes over cropland and captures well the spatial and temporal vari- ability of the growth conditions in Europe. Simulations with JULES-SUCROS highlight the importance of vegetation structure and phenology, and the impact they have on land–atmosphere interactions.

Incorporation of water vapour transfer in the JULES Land Surface Model: implications for key soil variables and land surface fluxes

This study focuses on the mechanisms underlying water and heat transfer in upper soil layers, and their effects on soil physical prognostic variables and the individual components of the energy balance. The skill of the JULES (Joint UK Land Environment Simulator) land surface model (LSM) to simulate key soil variables, such as soil moisture content and surface temperature, and fluxes such as evaporation, is investigated. The Richards equation for soil water transfer, as used in most LSMs, was updated by incorporating isothermal and thermal water vapour transfer. The model was tested for three sites representative of semi-arid and temperate arid climates: the Jornada site (New Mexico, USA), Griffith site (Australia) and Audubon site (Arizona, USA). Water vapour flux was found to contribute significantly to the water and heat transfer in the upper soil layers. This was mainly due to isothermal vapour diffusion; thermal vapour flux also played a role at the Jornada site just after rainfall events. Inclusion of water vapour flux had an effect on the diurnal evolution of evaporation, soil moisture content and surface temperature. The incorporation of additional processes, such as water vapour flux among others, into LSMs may improve the coupling between the upper soil layers and the atmosphere, which in turn could increase the reliability of weather and climate predictions.

Adapting Jules Verne for the baby-boom generation: Hachette and the Bibliothèque Verte, c.1956-1966

How do changing notions of children’s reading practices alter or even create classic texts? This article looks at how the nineteenth-century author Jules Verne (1828-1905) was modernised by Hachette for their Bibliothèque Verte children’s collection in the 1950s and 60s. Using the methodology of adaptation studies, the article reads the abridged texts in the context of the concerns that emerged in postwar France about what children were reading. It examines how these concerns shaped editorial policy, and the transformations that Verne’s texts underwent before they were considered suitable for the children of the baby-boom generation. It asks whether these adapted versions damaged Verne’s reputation, as many literary scholars have suggested, or if the process of dividing his readership into children and adults actually helped to reinforce the new idea of his texts as complex and multilayered. In so doing, this article provides new insights into the impact of postwar reforms on children’s publishing and explores the complex interplay between abridgment, censorship, children’s literature and the adult canon.
