Engorde de pulpo (Octopus vulgaris) alimentado exclusivamente con boga (Boops boops) de descarte de la acuicultura

[EN] The use of low value fish (Bogue, Boops boops), accidentally reared in seabream culture cages, as a sole food in octopus farming was tested in two different experiments located in Canary Islands. In a first experiment two different initial sizes were compared: 1,5 kg & 2,3 kg, both at a density of 11 kg/m3. Initial density was increased in a second experiments to 16 kg/m3 testing two lower initial weights: 1,0 kg & 0,8 kg. Bogue as a single feed was found to be good enough to sustain a good growth in octopus cage rearing. Best growth in terms of specific growth rate and average daily growth was obtained with the lowest grow size, 0,8 kg.

Growth and fatty acid composition of Octopus vulgaris fed different diets based on bogue (Boops boops) in comparison to wild individuals

[EN] Octopus vulgaris is a suitable candidate to diversify marine aquaculture (Iglesias et al., 2000; Vaz Pires et al. 2004). Actually, wild sub-adults are on-growing in floating cages showing promising results (Chapela et al., 2006; Rodríguez et al., 2006). Even though octopus industrial development is still limited, mainly associated to the dependence of wild catch individuals for ongrowing (Iglesias et al., 2007) and a lack of an appropriate formulated diet (García García and Cerezo, 2006). In addition, essential macronutrient requirements for this species are still not well known. Used of discarded bogue as single food for Octopus on-growth results in similar growth than co-fed diets with the crab (Portunus pelagic). FA content of Muscle and DG showed important ARA content, suggesting the important functions of this FA in this specie.

Engorde de pulpo común Octopus vulgaris en jaulas en la comunidad Canaria [Material gráfico] [Recurso electrónico] : efecto de la dieta y la densidad inicial

Octopus vulgaris on-growing in floating cages is a promising activity implemented in Spain at industrial level, with productions of 16-32 tons/year from 1998. Nevertheless, some aspects of the culture system need to be evaluated to warrantee its profitability. In the present work absolute growth rate (AGR, g/day) and mortality (%) under two initial rearing densities, 10 and 17 kg/m3, were compared under two feeding regimes over 15 weeks. One diet was composed by bogue, supplied as ?discarded? species from local fish farms. The other diet was based on a 40-60% discarded bogue-crab Portunus pelagicus. Half of the reared octopuses were PIT-tagged and two sampling points were established along the experimental period. Regardless of dietary treatment, up to the 11th week, growth was 19 and 13 g./day for the low and high rearing density. On the other hand, up to the 11th week mortality was higher in the control diet fed group (30%), reaching 74-84% by the end of the experiment regardless of rearing density and dietary treatment, which could suggest some nutritional imbalance of the tested diets.

Evaluación de 2 sistemas de cultivo en pulpos macho Octopus vulgaris: efecto de la talla inicial y de la dieta

[EN]Octopus vulgaris on-growing in floating cages has shown promising results. Nevertheless, some aspects of the culture system need to be evaluated to warrantee its profitability. In the present work individual and group rearing, in PVC net compartments and floating cages respectively, are compared under two dietary treatments. One diet is composed by bogue, supplied as ?discarded? species from local fish farms, and the other is based on a 40-60% discarded bogue-crab Portunus pelagicus. Besides, the effect of initial size is also evaluated. All octopuses were PIT-tagged and the experiment lasted 2 months. Absolute growth rate (AGR, g./day) and mortality (%) were calculated. Control diet generated higher growth rates and lower mortality which suggests different crab requirements at higher rearing temperatures. High mortality recorded in individual rearing could be related with high initial rearing density and temperatures.

Evaluación de 2 sistemas de cultivo en pulpo común Octopus vulgaris en jaulas en la comunidad Canaria

Octopus vulgaris on-growing in floating cages is a promising activity implemented in Spain at industrial level, with productions of 16-32 tons/year from 1998. Nevertheless, some aspects of the culture system need to be evaluated to warrantee its profitability. In the present study two rearing systems and two dietary treatments were evaluated. Individual and group rearing, in PVC net compartments and floating cages respectively, were compared under two dietary treatments. One diet was composed by bogue, supplied as ?discarded? species from local fish farms, and the other was based on a 40-60% discarded bogue-crab Portunus pelagicus. All octopuses were PIT-tagged and the experiment lasted two months. Animals were sampled once throughout the experimental period and absolute growth rate (AGR, g./day) and mortality (%) were calculated. AGR of group rearing was above 30 g./day, however individual rearing showed 100% survival so biomass increment was higher. On the other hand, males grew more than females regardless of dietary treatment.

Human muscle net K(+) release during exercise is unaffected by elevated anaerobic metabolism, but reduced after prolonged acclimatization to 4,100 m

[EN] It was investigated whether skeletal muscle K(+) release is linked to the degree of anaerobic energy production. Six subjects performed an incremental bicycle exercise test in normoxic and hypoxic conditions prior to and after 2 and 8 wk of acclimatization to 4,100 m. The highest workload completed by all subjects in all trials was 260 W. With acute hypoxic exposure prior to acclimatization, venous plasma [K(+)] was lower (P < 0.05) in normoxia (4.9 +/- 0.1 mM) than hypoxia (5.2 +/- 0.2 mM) at 260 W, but similar at exhaustion, which occurred at 400 +/- 9 W and 307 +/- 7 W (P < 0.05), respectively. At the same absolute exercise intensity, leg net K(+) release was unaffected by hypoxic exposure independent of acclimatization. After 8 wk of acclimatization, no difference existed in venous plasma [K(+)] between the normoxic and hypoxic trial, either at submaximal intensities or at exhaustion (360 +/- 14 W vs. 313 +/- 8 W; P < 0.05). At the same absolute exercise intensity, leg net K(+) release was less (P < 0.001) than prior to acclimatization and reached negative values in both hypoxic and normoxic conditions after acclimatization. Moreover, the reduction in plasma volume during exercise relative to rest was less (P < 0.01) in normoxic than hypoxic conditions, irrespective of the degree of acclimatization (at 260 W prior to acclimatization: -4.9 +/- 0.8% in normoxia and -10.0 +/- 0.4% in hypoxia). It is concluded that leg net K(+) release is unrelated to anaerobic energy production and that acclimatization reduces leg net K(+) release during exercise.

Regional differences in modelled net production and shallow remineralization in the North Atlantic subtropical gyre

[EN] We used 5-yr concomitant data of tracer distribution from the BATS (Bermuda Time-series Study) and ESTOC (European Station for Time-Series in the Ocean, Canary Islands) sites to build a 1-D tracer model conservation including horizontal advection, and then compute net production and shallow remineralization rates for both sites. Our main goal was to verify if differences in these rates are consistent with the lower export rates of particulate organic carbon observed at ESTOC. Net production rates computed below the mixed layer to 110m from April to December for oxygen, dissolved inorganic carbon and nitrate at BATS (1.34±0.79 molO2 m?2, ?1.73±0.52 molCm?2 and ?125±36 mmolNm?2) were slightly higher for oxygen and carbon compared to ESTOC (1.03±0.62 molO2 m?2, ?1.42±0.30 molCm?2 and ?213±56 mmolNm?2), although the differences were not statistically significant. Shallow remineralization rates between 110 and 250m computed at ESTOC (?3.9±1.0 molO2 m?2, 1.53±0.43 molCm?2 and 38±155 mmolNm?2) were statistically higher for oxygen compared to BATS (?1.81±0.37 molO2 m?2, 1.52± 0.30 molCm?2 and 147±43 mmolNm?2). The lateral advective flux divergence of tracers, which was more significant at ESTOC, was responsible for the differences in estimated oxygen remineralization rates between both stations. According to these results, the differences in net production and shallow remineralization cannot fully explain the differences in the flux of sinking organic matter observed between both stations, suggesting an additional consumption of nonsinking organic matter at ESTOC.

Con il presente lavoro si intende descrivere il progetto di localizzazione in tedesco del sito web http://officinadesign.net/ dell’azienda Officina Design, una piccola impresa con sede a Gambettola in provincia di Forlì-Cesena che si occupa di design per l’arredamento di interni. L’azienda si distingue per l’interesse per la lavorazione e il recupero dei materiali nella creazione dei propri prodotti realizzati a mano collocandosi all’interno di una lunga tradizione locale in questi settori. Il primo capitolo introduce il tema della localizzazione illustrandone le caratteristiche principali mettendo in luce gli aspetti tecnologici e culturali che ne fanno parte; di seguito verranno illustrate le fasi di un progetto di localizzazione e le figure professionali coinvolte in generale e nel caso specifico; infine, verranno fornite alcune informazioni su alcuni degli strumenti tecnici utilizzati. Nel secondo capitolo si affronterà un’analisi approfondita del testo di partenza e verranno presentate le tematiche relative alla teoria della traduzione rilevanti per il presente progetto. Il terzo capitolo tratterà in modo dettagliato le varie fasi del progetto; seguirà la presentazione del testo tradotto e infine il commento, in cui verranno esposti i problemi traduttivi, le difficoltà incontrate, i metodi e i procedimenti adottati.

Localizzazione di alcune pagine del sito http://www.Eataly.Net/it_it/

El objetivo de este proyecto de fin de carrera es el de proponer la traducción del italiano hacia el español de algunas páginas del sitio http://www.eataly.net/it_it/. Este trabajo se ha dividido en cinco partes: la primera presenta las características de la página web y explica por qué elegí traducir estas páginas, la segunda propone un análisis del texto en italiano, la tercera explica los instrumentos que he utilizado, es decir Catscradle y los textos paralelos, muy útiles para verificar en español las soluciones posibles. En la cuarta parte se encuentra la traducción y finalmente en la quinta mi comentario sobre la traducción, en el que se explican las dificultades traductoras que he encontrado y las estrategias que he elegido para solucionar el problema. En este último capítulo es posible comprender el papel fundamental de las barreras culturales, que constituyen un importante elemento en este tipo de texto, rico en términos culinarios italianos que un lector español no conoce. En conclusión, este proyecto ha sido muy estimulante para mí porque he tenido la oportunidad de conjugar mi pasión por la comida italiana, en particular la de Eataly, con mi pasión por la traducción. También ha sido importante porque me ha permitido utilizar algunas estrategias y conocimientos teóricos que he aprendido en los tres años de universidad y me ha permitido mejorar mi español.

Esecuzione immediata di frammenti di codice sorgente C# tramite l’utilizzo della .NET Compiler Platform

.NET Compiler Platform è un compilatore per i linguaggi C# e Visual Basic realizzato da Microsoft. L’innovazione apportata da tale strumento è l’introduzione di API che permettono di accedere al compilatore; in particolare, è possibile accedere alle strutture dati utilizzate al suo interno, quali simboli o AST, e controllare e/o modificare il processo di compilazione. Una parte di questo progetto, chiamato anche progetto Roslyn, è focalizzata sull’introduzione dello scripting per il linguaggio C#. In questa trattazione si è interessati a sperimentare le possibilità offerte da tale strumento nel campo dell’esecuzione dinamica di frammenti di codice. Gli obiettivi imposti si collocano nell’ambito della re-ingegnerizzazione e dello sviluppo di software. Tali obiettivi sono la re-implementazione dei filtri di selezione contenuti nel framework Phoenix, utilizzando le API di Roslyn per migliorarne le prestazioni, e la progettazione di un componente che realizzi una console per lo scripting C# dotata della possibilità di riferire dinamicamente librerie. Le API di compilazione si rivelano essere non propriamente adatte all’esecuzione immediata di frammenti di codice, nonostante ciò, è possibile, appoggiandosi alla reflection, utilizzarle per giungere a questo risultato. Lo scripting, invece, si rivela uno strumento dalle grandi potenzialità nel suddetto ambito.
