Las mineralizaciones filonianas del sector de l'Argentera (Cadenas Costeras Catalanas): Contexto geológico, estructura, tipología y condiciones de formación

Las mineralizaciones filonianas del area de L'Argentera estan encajadas indistintamente en la srie sedimentaria pre-carbonfera y carbonfera y en las granodioritas tardihercinicas. NE-SW y presentan dos asociaciones minerales geograficamente bien discriminadas: de Ba-(F) y de cuarzo + galena + arseniuros de Ni-Co. La serie detrtica roja discordante del Triasico inferior (Buntsandstein) muestra asimismo cemento de baritina (fluorita) o cuarzo, en neta correspondencia con las asociaciones minerales de los filones infrayacentes encajados en el zcalo hercnico. Gran parte del contenido filoniano se deposit a partir de soluciones altarnente salinas (20% NaCl peso eq.) y de bajas temperaturas (90 a 120C). Las observaciones realizadas son compatibles con un modelo deposicional basado en una mezcla de aguas termales ascendentes en fracturas permeables y soluciones sulfatadas percolantes a partir de un ambiente de tipo sabkha instalado en el Buntsandstein superior.

Elements traça en esfalerites i galenes del dipòsit de Cierco (Pb-Zn). Alta Ribagorça, Pirineu Central

El diposit consisteix en dos filons E-W, tallats per un altre N-S. El rebliment filonia ès zonat amb esfalerita- galena-calcita als nivells profunds i galena-baritina als superiors. Els elements traça en esfalerites i galenes, plenament separades, han estat analitzats mitjancant fluorescència de raigs X. Els resultats mostren que l'esfalerita concentra la majoria d'elements traça, preferentment Fe, Co, Cd, Sn, Sb, Ga, Cu, Ge i Ag, amb una bona correlació entre els sis primers. La galena concentra únicament Sb, Ag i As, amb bona correlació entre els dos primers. Els continguts en elements traça estan homogèniament distribuits en tot el diposit.

Are commuting and residential mobility decisions simultaneous? : the case of Catalonia (Spain)

In this paper we study the commuting and moving decisions of workers in Catalonia (Spain) and its evolution in the 1986-1996 period. Using a microdata sample from the 1991 Spanish Population Census, we estimate a simultaneous, discrete choice model of commuting and moves, thus indirectly addressing the home and job location decisions. The econometrical framework is a simultaneous, binary probit model with a commute equation and a move equation

A territorial model of commuting in Catalonia, 1986-1996

Commuting consists in the fact that an important fraction of workers in developed countries do not reside close to their workplaces but at long distances from them, so they have to travel to their jobs and then back home daily. Although most workers hold a job in the same municipality where they live or in a neighbouring one, an important fraction of workers face long daily trips to get to their workplace and then back home.Even if we divide Catalonia (Spain) in small aggregations of municipalities, trying to make them as close to local labour markets as possible, we will find out that some of them have a positive commuting balance, attracting many workers from other areas and providing local jobs for almost all their resident workers. On the other side, other zones seem to be mostly residential, so an important fraction of their resident workers hold jobs in different local labour markets. Which variables influence an area¿s role as an attraction pole or a residential zone? In previous papers (Artís et al, 1998a, 2000; Romaní, 1999) we have brought out the main individual variables that influence commuting by analysing a sample of Catalan workers and their commuting decisions. In this paper we perform an analysis of the territorial variables that influence commuting, using data for aggregate commuting flows in Catalonia from the 1991 and 1996 Spanish Population Censuses.These variables influence commuting in two different ways: a zone with a dense, welldeveloped economical structure will have a high density of jobs. Work demand cannot be fulfilled with resident workers, so it spills over local boundaries. On the other side, this economical activity has a series of side-effects like pollution, congestion or high land prices which make these areas less desirable to live in. Workers who can afford it may prefer to live in less populated, less congested zones, where they can find cheaper land, larger homes and a better quality of life. The penalty of this decision is an increased commuting time. Our aim in this paper is to highlight the influence of local economical structure and amenities endowment in the workplace-residence location decision. A place-to-place logit commuting models is estimated for 1991 and 1996 in order to find the economical and amenities variables with higher influence in commuting decisions. From these models, we can outline a first approximation to the evolution of these variables in the 1986-1996 period. Data have been obtained from aggregate flow travel-matrix from the 1986, 1991 and 1996 Spanish Population Censuses

An agency-oriented model to explain vine-growing specialization in the province of Barcelona (Catalonia, Spain) in the mid-nineteenth century

[cat] En aquest treball presentem un model per explicar el procés d’especialització vitícola assolit als municipis de la província de Barcelona, a mitjans del s. XIX,que cerca entendre com va sorgir històricament un avantatge comparatiu fruit d’un procés que esdevindria un dels punts de partida del procés d’industrialització a Catalunya. Els resultats confirmen els papers jugats pel impuls “Boserupià” de la població en un context d’intensificació de l’ús de la terra, i d’un impuls del mercat “Smithià” en un context d’expansió de la demanda per part de les economies atlàntiques. També es posa de manifest la importància de les dotacions agro-ecològiques i les condicions socioinstitucionals relacionades amb la desigualtat d’ingrés. La difusió de la vinya donà com a resultat unes comunitats rurals menys desiguals fins al 1820, tot i que aquesta desigualtat augmentà de nou a partir d'aleshores.

Archaoegastropoda del Plioceno del Empordà (Girona). Descriptiva y Sistemática

En el presente trabajo se describen y figuran siete especies diferentes de Archaeogastropoda (Gastropoda) procedentes de los yacimientos del Empordà, Girona (España).

Estudio tafonómico del yacimiento de Ventalló (Gerona)

En el presente trabajo se estudian aspectos tafonmicos -tanto biostratinmicos como fosildiagenticos- del yacimiento Pliocnico de Ventall (Gerona, Espaa). Se llega a la conclusin 'de que existe una preservacin diferencial de los Foraminferos y Pectnidos frente a las Moluscos en general debido a diferencias microestructurales ; la Tafocenosis se form en m m& sedimentario prximo a la costa y d4- bilmente oxidante.

Revisión y nuevas aportaciones a la fauna del yacimiento pliocénico de Vilacolum, Girona

En la presente nota se señala por vez primera la presencia de dos gasterópodos en el yacimiento pliocénico de Vilacolum (Girona), Bittium (S.S.) reticulatum DA COSTA y Scala (Hirtoscala) muricata RISSO, este último citado por vez primera en el Negeno espaol. Se acompaña de un catálogo actualizado de toda la fauna estudiada hasta el presente en dicho yacimiento ampliándose con especies hasta ahora no citadas de Crustceos y Equínidos halladas por nosotros
