Daily average Alnus pollen counts (1996-2005) from Worcester (UK) and Pozna (Poland) were examined with the aim of assessing the regional importance of Alnus pollen as an aeroallergen. The average number of Alnus pollen grains recorded annually at Pozna was more than 2.5 times that of Worcester. Furthermore, daily average Alnus pollen counts exceeded the thresholds of 100, 500 and 1,000 grains/m3 more times at Pozna than Worcester. Skin prick test results (1996-2005) and allergen-specific IgE(asIgE) measurements using the CAP (Pharmacia) system (2002-2005), were supplied by the Allergic Diseases Diagnostic Centre in Pozna. The annual number of positive skin prick tests to Alnus pollen allergens was significantly related (p<0.05) to seasonal variations in the magnitude of the Alnus pollen catch recorded at Pozna (r=0.70). The symptoms of patients with positive skin prick tests to Alnus pollen allergens were: 51% pollinosis, 43% atopic dermatitis, 4% asthma, 1% chronic urticaria and 1% eczema. On a scale of 0-6, 20.5% of patients examined for serum asIgE in relation to Alnus pollen allergens had asIgE measurements in classes 5 and 6. Alnus pollen is generally considered to be mildly allergenic. However, the amount of Alnus pollen released into the atmosphere in places such as Pozna may increase its impact on the population and make it one of the more important aeroallergens present.

O trabalho aqui proposto tem como objectivo central, a realizao de anlises ao conjunto dos recipientes cermicos pertencentes ao povoado da Sala n1. Repertrio esse, que se baseou no acervo retirado do stio arqueolgico Sala n1, intervencionado pelo Professor Victor S. Gonalves (1988, 1989 e 1995). As anlises e descries efectuadas foram sempre norteadas para a tentativa de estabelecer uma sequncia de formas que se pudesse verificar quanto sua normalizao e frequncia nos contextos presentes ao povoado da Sala n1. Traduzindo nessa realidade, a diacronia transversal entre os estratos arqueolgicos pertencentes ao Neoltico final e os estratos pertencentes ao Calcoltico. Tendo sempre como parmetros de anlise, as metodologias e critrios descritivos dos recipientes cermicos, presentes nos trabalhos publicados sobre as realidades cronolgicas semelhantes no Sul de Portugal. O prprio conjunto de recipientes cermicos aqui analisado foi submetido a essas metodologias, com fim de obter primordialmente as formas e as tipologias a que pertencem. Nesse sentido procurei criar um quadro de referncia local e regional, e posteriormente coloca-lo num enquadramento geral do Neoltico final e incio do Calcoltico do Alentejo Mdio, tentando verificar as similitudes nos quadros tipolgicos existentes, como os estabelecidos por Carlos Tavares da Silva e Joaquina Soares. Sendo este um estudo que abrange um tempo cronolgico de praticamente 1500 anos, premiei atravs da amplitude dos contornos que moldaram esta anlise, algumas perspectivas possveis. Quer ao nvel das tipologias, quer ao nvel das estratgias de ocupao do territrio, aplicveis para o espao e o tempo em anlise. Verificando a realidade escassa nos contextos alentejanos (publicados), em que a cultura material se integra numa estratigrafia e cronologias com uma diacronia semelhante do povoado da Sala n1. Tentei integrar este povoado num estudo que no sendo comparativo, tivesse essa componente em relao s tipologias e formas cermicas identificadas. Procurou-se dar enfase realidade artefactual das taas carenadas, e sua possvel evoluo para formas mais adaptveis ao uso e consumo quotidiano das comunidades contemporneas das fases Calcolticas do povoado.

Abstract Objective: Student retention at regional universities is important in addressing regional and remote workforce shortages. Students attending regional universities are more likely to work in regional areas. First year experience at university plays a key role in student retention. This study aimed to explore factors influencing the first year experience of occupational therapy students at a regional Australian university. Design: Surveys were administered to 58 second year occupational therapy students in the first week of second year. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, inferential statistics (Pearson 2; Spearman rho) and summarising descriptive responses. Setting: An Australian regional university. Participants: Second year undergraduate occupational therapy students. Main outcome measures: Factors influencing students decisions to study and continue studying occupational therapy; factors enhancing first year experience of university. Results: Fifty-four students completed the survey (93.1%). A quarter (25.9%) of students considered leaving the course during the first year. The primary influence for continuing was the teaching and learning experience. Most valued supports were orientation week (36.7%) and the first year coordinator (36.7%). Conclusion: The importance of the first year experience in retaining occupational therapy students is highlighted. Engagement with other students and staff and academic support are important factors in facilitating student retention. It is important to understand the unique factors influencing students decisions, particularly those from regional and remote areas, to enter and continue in tertiary education to assist in implementing supports and strategies to improve student retention.

This paper presents empirical evidence on how telecommunications infrastructure is related to economic growth in a panel dataset covering 44 African countries for the period from 1990 to 2010. A dynamic panel data approach model is employed, which suggests that telecommunications contribute in a major way to the economic development of the continent, after controlling for a number of other factors. Furthermore, the findings also show that investment in telecommunications is subject to increasing returns, demonstrating that an increase in telecommunications investment produces further growth. Therefore, telecommunications investment and services should be encouraged in the region.

In this study we analyse the emerging patterns of regional collaboration for innovation projects in China, using official government statistics of 30 Chinese regions. We propose the use of Ordinal Multidimensional Scaling and Cluster analysis as a robust method to study regional innovation systems. Our results show that regional collaborations amongst organisations can be categorised by means of eight dimensions: public versus private organisational mindset; public versus private resources; innovation capacity versus available infrastructures; innovation input (allocated resources) versus innovation output; knowledge production versus knowledge dissemination; and collaborative capacity versus collaboration output. Collaborations which are aimed to generate innovation fell into 4 categories, those related to highly specialised public research institutions, public universities, private firms and governmental intervention. By comparing the representative cases of regions in terms of these four innovation actors, we propose policy measures for improving regional innovation collaboration within China.

This paper introduces the concept of dual transition in relation to the notion of smartness in city-regional governance. This consists of two intersecting dimensions, a broader change in political-economic and societal circumstances which surround city-regions, and a more detailed, local change towards smartness in policy practices. Although smart seems to have become a somewhat ubiquitous adjective in urban policy, it seeks to project policies that seek to go beyond a one-dimensional growth agenda by addressing also the multifaceted quest for social, economic and environmental sustainability. The underlying shift in discourse, rationality and suggested policy responses in both dimensions may be captured by the concept of transition in relation to policies and governance. Originally developed in conjunction with broad political-economic regime change, such as post-authoritarian democratisation, the idea of transition has also been applied to the more specific concept of sustainability as sustainability transition.

Renewable based power generation has significantly increased over the last years. However, this process has evolved separately from electricity markets, leading to an inadequacy of the present market models to cope with huge quantities of renewable energy resources, and to take full advantage of the presently existing and the increasing envisaged renewable based and distributed energy resources. This paper proposes the modelling of electricity markets at several levels (continental, regional and micro), taking into account the specific characteristics of the players and resources involved in each level and ensuring that the proposed models accommodate adequate business models able to support the contribution of all the resources in the system, from the largest to the smaller ones. The proposed market models are integrated in MASCEM (Multi- Agent Simulator of Competitive Electricity Markets), using the multi agent approach advantages for overcoming the current inadequacy and significant limitations of the presently existing electricity market simulators to deal with the complex electricity market models that must be adopted.

This paper presents the creation and development of technological schools directly linked to the business community and to higher public education. Establishing themselves as the key interface between the two sectors they make a signigicant contribution by having a greater competitive edge when faced with increasing competition in the tradional markets. The development of new business strategies supported by references of excellence, quality and competitiveness also provides a good link between the estalishment of partnerships aiming at the qualification of education boards at a medium level between the technological school and higher education with a technological foundation. We present a case study as an example depicting the success of Escola Tecnolgica de Vale de Cambra.

Em pouco mais de trs dcadas (1980-2013) registaram-se, em Portugal continental, cerca de 745 mil ignies e uma rea ardida que ronda 3,7 milhes de hectares. Todavia, quando se analisa a distribuio espacial dos incndios verifica-se que h distritos especialmente suscetveis sua deflagrao e outros mais favorveis propagao das chamas. A dicotomia Norte/Centro vs Sul de Portugal, tanto no nmero de ignies como na rea ardida, igualmente bem conhecida. Com o presente trabalho pretende-se analisar a distribuio espacial e detetar tendncias de evoluo temporal, no perodo de 1980-2013, tanto na densidade de ignies, como na percentagem de reas ardidas a nvel regional, e, ainda, definir o grau de similaridade existente entre os distritos que compem Portugal continental, no que se refere incidncia de incndios florestais. Os resultados referentes densidade de ignies so perentrios quanto ao seu acrscimo pois, em todas as unidades territoriais, a correlao baseada quer no coeficiente de Pearson quer no coeficiente de Spearman, de acordo com a anlise - revela-se estatisticamente significativa. No que se refere s percentagens de superfcie mdia incinerada, os resultados so mais dspares. Com tendncias positivas (p-value <0,05) sobressaem todos os distritos da regio Norte, enquanto os de Beja e vora manifestam a mesma tendncia, apenas se aplicado o coeficiente de Spearman. Com tendncia inversa, isto , de decrscimo, apenas se destaca Coimbra. Nos restantes distritos as tendncias observadas no revelam significado estatstico.

Relatrio EPE - Relatrio de estgio em Educao Pr-Escolar: O presente relatrio de estgio foi realizado no mbito da Unidade Curricular (UC) de Prtica Pedaggica Supervisionada na Educao Pr-Escolar, inserida no Mestrado em Educao Pr-Escolar e Ensino do 1. Ciclo do Ensino Bsico. Sendo que este perspetiva o percurso de formao da mestranda, importa conceptualizar os referenciais tericos e legais que sustentaram a sua ao e a metodologia utlizada durante todo o processo investigao-ao que inclui os seguintes processos educativos: a observao, a planificao, a ao, a avaliao e a reflexo. A Prtica Pedaggica Supervisionada realizou-se na valncia de creche, no Colgio Novo da Maia e teve como principais objetivos o desenvolvimento das competncias profissionais e disposies subjacentes ao Perfil Geral e Especfico de Desempenho do Educador de Infncia. Apoiando a sua prtica atravs da observao, recolha de dados, anlise constante da ao e reflexo crtica permanente, a formanda, regulou-se pela metodologia de investigao-ao enquanto processo em que os participantes analisam as suas prprias prticas educativas de uma forma sistemtica e aprofundada (Coutinho et al, 2009, p.360), com vista ao desenvolvimento de competncias relativas a um educador enquanto investigador da prpria ao. Importa acrescentar que o perodo de estgio foi de 210 horas e decorreu em dade de formao. A colaborao entre todos os atores intervenientes no contexto da prtica pedaggica supervisionada visa a construo de um perfil profissional que promova o desenvolvimento das competncias socioprofissionais e pessoais, de forma fundamentada, reflexiva, integrada e autonomizante, luz do princpio da aprendizagem ao longo da vida (Ribeiro, 2013, p.2).

A Primeira Exposio Colonial Portuguesa realizada no Porto em 1934 foi a consequncia visvel do impulso que Salazar quis dar poltica colonial portuguesa e a uma orientao imperial em que colonizar e civilizar as populaes indgenas eram as palavras de ordem. Como corolrio da exposio foram produzidos, entre outros, dois importantes lbuns, hoje documentos de inegvel interesse histrico, no s enquanto discurso de propaganda do regime do Estado Novo, mas tambm enquanto narrativas visuais ou vises do Imprio. So eles, o lbum Fotogrfico da autoria do fotgrafo Domingos Alvo e o lbum Comemorativo, com reprodues de pinturas e desenhos do pintor Eduardo Malta. Neste trabalho pretendemos reflectir sobre essas vises do Imprio, pois elas expressam uma visualidade e um imaginrio que se traduz em prticas sociais, em valores e em relaes de dominao que definem uma poltica do olhar, onde o corpo se torna um espao de inscrio, bem como de categorizao racial e cultural. Em suma, atravs dessas imagens que vemos as relaes de poder e as formas de dominao sobre o outro, que impregnaram a exposio.
