Ecological gradients and landscape structure affecting seasonal woodpigeon Columba palumbus densities in a coastal region (South-East Spain)

The aim of the present study is to identify and evaluate the relationship between Woodpigeon (Columba palumbus, Linnaeus, 1758) density and different environmental gradients (thermotype, ombrotype, continentality and latitudinal), land use and landscape structure, using geographic information systems and multivariate modelling. Transects (n = 396) were developed to estimate the density of Woodpigeon in the Marina Baja (Alicante, Spain) from 2006 to 2008. The highestdensity for Woodpigeon was in September-October (1.28birds/10ha) and the lowest inFebruary-March (0.34birds/10ha). Moreover, there were more Woodpigeons in areas with a mesomediterranean thermotypethan in thermomediterranean or supramediterranean ones. There was greater densityinthe intermediate zones compared to thecoast and interior. The natural or cultural landscape had the highest Woodpigeon density (1.53birds/10ha), with both denseand clear pine forest values standing out. Therefore, it is very important to conserve these traditional landscapes with adequate management strategies in order to maintain, resident and transient Woodpigeon populations. These natural areas are open places where the Woodpigeons find food and detect the presence ofpredators. Thus, this study will enable more precise knowledge of the ecological factors (habitat variables) that intervene in the distribution of Woodpigeon populations and their density.

The European Resonance of Napoleon’s Defeat in Spain

The military event that sealed the defeat of Napoleon in Spain was the Battle of Vitoria on 21st June 1813, which saw the allied British, Spanish and Portuguese troops led by Wellington gain victory over Joseph Bonaparte's forces. It was the last great battle of what is known in Spain as the Guerra de la Independencia, in the United Kingdom as the Peninsular War and in France as the Guerre d'Espagne. While a sliver of Spanish territory remained under French control and the war itself went on for a few more months, it was the Battle of Vitoria that marked the end of Napoleon's rule on the Iberian Peninsula, as symbolised by the departure from Spain of Joseph Bonaparte, the monarch who had been imposed five years earlier to remove the Bourbons from the Spanish throne.

Terminología económico-financiera: propuesta de actividades para la enseñanza de lenguas con fines específicos

En este trabajo tratamos de presentar, en esencia, una serie de actividades encaminadas a la adquisición del léxico especializado en economía y finanzas. Tras repasar brevemente algunos de los supuestos y postulados de la teoría comunicativa de la terminología (TCT), ejemplificar algunos fenómenos terminológicos en el ámbito de los planes de refinanciación de la crisis en España y reseñar algunos de los puntos que conviene tener en cuenta en la enseñanza de lenguas para fines específicos, presentamos diferentes actividades basadas en las etapas en las que es posible dividir el proceso de adquisición de vocabulario especializado. Se trata de diferentes tipos de actividades, enfocadas no sólo para especialistas no castellanoparlantes, sino también para mediadores lingüísticos (traductores en formación, por ejemplo), que inciden fundamentalmente en los aspectos terminológicos del lenguaje, como, entre otras cosas, en el tipo de relaciones conceptuales que se estable entre el léxico o el tipo de variación terminológica.
