Dust has the potential to modify global climate by influencing the radiative balance of the atmosphere and by supplying iron and other essential limiting micronutrients to the ocean (Martin et al., 1990, doi:10.1038/345156a0; Martin, 1990, doi:10.1029/PA005i001p00001). Indeed, dust supply to the Southern Ocean increases during ice ages, and 'iron fertilization' of the subantarctic zone may have contributed up to 40 parts per million by volume (p.p.m.v.) of the decrease (80-100 p.p.m.v.) in atmospheric carbon dioxide observed during late Pleistocene glacial cycles (Watson et al., 2000, doi:10.1038/35037561; Kohfeld et al., 2005, doi:10.1126/science.1105375; Martínez-Garcia et al., 2009, doi:10.1029/2008PA001657; Sigman et al., 2010, doi:10.1038/nature09149; Hain et al., 2010, doi:10.1029/2010gb003790). So far, however, the magnitude of Southern Ocean dust deposition in earlier times and its role in the development and evolution of Pleistocene glacial cycles have remained unclear. Here we report a high-resolution record of dust and iron supply to the Southern Ocean over the past four million years, derived from the analysis of marine sediments from ODP Site 1090, located in the Atlantic sector of the subantarctic zone. The close correspondence of our dust and iron deposition records with Antarctic ice core reconstructions of dust flux covering the past 800,000 years (Lambert et al., 2008, doi:10.1038/nature06763; Wolf et al., 2006, doi:10.1038/nature04614) indicates that both of these archives record large-scale deposition changes that should apply to most of the Southern Ocean, validating previous interpretations of the ice core data. The extension of the record beyond the interval covered by the Antarctic ice cores reveals that, in contrast to the relatively gradual intensification of glacial cycles over the past three million years, Southern Ocean dust and iron flux rose sharply at the Mid-Pleistocene climatic transition around 1.25 million years ago. This finding complements previous observations over late Pleistocene glacial cycles (Martínez-Garcia et al., 2009; Lambert et al., 2008; Wolff et al., 2006), providing new evidence of a tight connection between high dust input to the Southern Ocean and the emergence of the deep glaciations that characterize the past one million years of Earth history.

Mass transport and mass flux values for the different types of glaciers in the Sør-Rondane are calculated from computer models, based upon gravity data and geodetic stake velocity measurements. The results are interpreted in the light of a general flow line analysis, glacial geological investigations and of the ablation terms of the mass balance for Dronning Maud Land and Antarctica.

La inestabilidad política regia visigoda es un fenómeno tan constante en la documentación de los siglos VI-VIII que motiva una investigación para dar cuenta de sus principios estructurales. Se propone que la evolución política de la realeza visigoda corresponde a lógicas de funcionamiento de las aristocracias en sociedades de dominación incompleta, que expresan una dinámica general de la temprana Edad Media. Las opiniones de los autores sobre este fenómeno son tan variadas que se vuelve imperioso realizar un balance del estado de la investigación, detectar los problemas existentes y, lo más importante, delinear una línea de trabajo a seguir

Los primeros trabajos de Jacques Le Goff, sobre mercaderes, banqueros e intelectuales de la Edad Media, presentan cualidades que anuncian su desarrollo posterior: débil teoría económica y mayor desarrollo sobre historia de las ideas. A partir de 1964, con la publicación de La civilización del occidente medieval, se produce un cambio. Ese cambio se inscribe en una nueva orientación general de la escuela de Annales: el estudio de las mentalidades. Le Goff pretende realizar un análisis de la mentalidad del hombre medieval. Su estudio se basa principalmente en textos eruditos eclesiásticos. Se demuestra en este artículo que ese tipo de fuentes permiten acceder a la mentalidad de la parte sacerdotal de la clase de poder. De manera secundaria, Le Goff estudió fuentes literarias que permiten acercarse a la mentalidad de los caballeros. Para el análisis de los campesinos y de distintos sectores subalternos se necesitarían otro tipo de fuentes que nunca fueron utilizadas por Le Goff. Este análisis mantiene algunas semejanzas con el materialismo histórico, pero también tiene profundas diferencias con la doctrina de Marx. En base a esto se determina el alcance del legado de Le Goff

This work belongs to one of the activities that are carried out in the Vocational and Occupational Guidance Center (V.O.G.C.) of the Faculty of Humanities and Educational Sciences at the L.P.N.U. In the year 1994 the Vocational/Occupational Guidance Programme for Municipalities was created, destined for work with adolescents who are attending their last year at secondary schools in the interior of the Province of Buenos Aires . The Programme aims at fostering the development of spaces for reflection related to the educational/working projects of the adolescents who are close to entering university. The proposal is based on the methodology of work groups, in the journeys preoccupations are sheared, the worries and fears experienced by the students are shared with their hosts, possibilities are used as ground for construction, dealing both with aspects of their current situation and their future possibilities. From the analysis of the group productions collected throughout these years, we have developed a student's profile that - although it resembles the one obtained from local adolescents- adds new questions and points of view, thus increasing the complexity of the balance of forces related to the question of having to make a choice.

Acceleration of Greenland's three largest outlet glaciers, Helheim, Kangerdlugssuaq and Jakobshavn Isbræ, accounted for a substantial portion of the ice sheet's mass loss over the past decade. Rapid changes in their discharge, however, make their cumulative mass-change uncertain. We derive monthly mass balance rates and cumulative balance from discharge and surface mass balance (SMB) rates for these glaciers from 2000 through 2010. Despite the dramatic changes observed at Helheim, the glacier gained mass over the period, due primarily to the short duration of acceleration and a likely longer-term positive balance. In contrast, Jakobshavn Isbræ lost an equivalent of over 11 times the average annual SMB and loss continues to accelerate. Kangerdlugssuaq lost over 7 times its annual average SMB, but loss has returned to the 2000 rate. These differences point to contrasts in the long-term evolution of these glaciers and the danger in basing predictions on extrapolations of recent changes.
