Respuesta de la respiración del suelo a la temperatura y humedad del suelo en sistemas forestales mediterráneos

La respiración del suelo es uno de los mayores flujos en el ciclo global de carbono y supone unas 80-98 Pg C año-1, por lo que cambios en las condiciones de los suelos pueden tener grandes efectos en las emisiones globales de carbono a la atmósfera. Esto hace que sea importante conocer y entender los mecanismos que influyen en la respiración de los suelos. La temperatura del suelo se ha reconocido como uno de los factores principales que influyen en la respiración del suelo aunque la humedad del suelo no es menos importante, sobre todo en climas como el mediterráneo donde es uno de los factores ecológicos más importantes. El objetivo del trabajo es determinar la relación que tienen la temperatura y la humedad del suelo con la respiración del mismo, y valorar si la gestión forestal influye en dicha relación.

Análisis de la geometría de Pablo Palazuelo desde la visión del arquitecto

Esta investigación indaga sobre la relación entre el método geométrico empleado por Pablo Palazuelo y el proceso del proyecto arquitectónico. La elección de este pintor y escultor madrileño como hilo conductor de esta tesis no es fortuita, puesto que la arquitectura desempeña una influencia esencial sobre su obra. Un influjo que le llega en parte a través de su formación académica, dado que cursó estudios de arquitectura en la School of Arts and Crafts de la ciudad de Oxford (1933-1936). Así mismo diseñó propuestas estrechamente vinculadas a un lugar construido, con el consiguiente condicionante de las trazas del mismo. La hipótesis de trabajo formulada a partir de textos elaborados por autores como Víctor Nieto Alcaide y Juan Daniel Fullaondo sugería una interconexión con la arquitectura orgánica. Como comprobación del grado de profundidad en otros análisis publicados, se han seleccionado los textos que indagan en el proceso que el artista desarrollaba durante la producción de su obra, y se adentran en cuestiones estructurales que trascienden el ámbito formal. Siguiendo esta pauta, además de una acotación temporal, se han escogido los realizados por Santiago Amón, Carme Bonell, Valerio Bozal, Manuel J. Borja-Villel, Francisco Calvo Serraller, Claude Esteban, Julián Gállego, Teresa Grandas, Max Hölzer, George Limbour, Kevin Power y Carlos Rodríguez-Spiteri. A estos autores se suman las fuentes orales consultadas dentro de un entorno intrínsecamente próximo a sus realizaciones, procedentes de Pere Casanovas y Soledad Lorenzo. Además de personas que en diferentes etapas de su vida coincidieron por distintos motivos con sus realizaciones, como son Ramón Ayerza, Mariano Bayón, José Antonio Corrales, Luis Gordillo, Rafael Moneo, José Rodríguez-Spiteri y Antonio Tornero. A partir del acceso obtenido a los escritos, libros, bocetos y abundante obra gráfica y escultórica que atesora la Fundación del pintor, se ha podido elaborar un andamiaje tanto teórico como geométrico que ha servido de base para confrontar estas premisas. Esta empresa se ha estructurado en una narración que, además de los estudios precedentes citados, comienza con los cimientos del pensamiento de Palazuelo. Elaborada a partir de sus escritos, donde defendía un sincretismo que concilia las visiones de las culturas occidental y oriental. En los siguientes apartados, se han analizado las principales obras gráficas y escultóricas del autor haciendo un especial hincapié en el método productivo. Una gestación que se resiste a una mera enumeración cronológica, por lo que la clasificación que se propone en este trabajo trata de ser lo más fiel posible al espíritu expresado por Palazuelo basado en linajes y coherencias, para desvelar las herramientas empleadas y poder compararlas con el proceso del proyectual. Este recorrido se completa con una última sección se reúnen por primera vez las dieciséis obras y los dieciséis proyectos más representativos que ilustran la aproximación más directa que obró Palazuelo entre sus investigaciones geométricas y un locus determinado. Durante casi cuatro años se desarrolló un inventariado y catalogación pormenorizada de la documentación y piezas sobre papel, lienzo y metal realizadas por Palazuelo. Esta indagación saca a la luz un conjunto constituido por casi cuatro mil obras, en su mayoría inéditas, que constituyen el archivo de la citada institución. En definitiva, esta investigación construye un tejido gráfico y geométrico referido a uno de los artistas españoles más importantes del siglo XX, entreverado por su pensamiento teórico y realizaciones en dibujos, maquetas, esculturas y propuestas arquitectónicas. Las cuales permiten establecer los acuerdos y desacuerdos con el proceso de la arquitectura para proponer una nueva aproximación geométrica interdisciplinar. ABSTRACT This research investigates the relationship between the geometric method used by Palazuelo and the architectural design’s process. Choosing this Spanish painter and sculptor as thread of this thesis is not fortuitous, since the architecture has an essential influence on his work. An influx that arrives in part through his academic training, as he was an architecture student at the School of Arts and Crafts of the city of Oxford (1933-1936). Furthermore his proposals designed closely linked to a built place, therefore conditioned by its traces. The working hypothesis formulated from texts written by authors like Victor Nieto Alcaide and Juan Daniel Fullaondo suggested an interconnection with organic architecture. As a check on the degree of depth in other published reviews, articles that explore the process that the artist developed during the production of his work, and penetrate into structural issues beyond formal domain have been selected. Following this pattern, along with a temporal dimension, assays by Santiago Amón, Carme Bonell, Valerio Bozal, Manuel J. Borja-Villel, Francisco Calvo Serraller, Claude Esteban, Julián Gállego, Teresa Grandas, Max Hölzer, George Limbour, Kevin Power and Carlos Rodriguez-Spiteri have been selected. Oral sources within an inherently environment close to his achievements, as Pere Casanovas and Soledad Lorenzo, are also added. In addition to people coincided with his accomplishments, such as Ramón Ayerza, Mariano Bayón, José Antonio Corrales, Luis Gordillo, Rafael Moneo, José Rodríguez-Spiteri and Antonio Tornero. From obtained access to the writings, books, sketches and abundant graphic and sculptural work that holds the Foundation painter, it has been able to develop a theoretical and geometric framework that have served as the basis for confronting these premises. This dissertation has been structured in a narrative that ⎯in addition to the previously mentioned studies⎯, begins with the foundations of Palazuelo thought. A structure built from his writings, where he defended a syncretism that reconciles the views of Western and Eastern cultures. In the following sections, his main graphic and sculptural works have been analyzed with particular emphasis on the productive method. A process that resists mere chronological enumeration, so the classification proposed in this investigation tries to be as faithful as possible to the spirit expressed by Palazuelo, based on bloodlines and coherences, to uncover the tools he used and to compare them with the architectural design process. This tour is completed with a final chapter that gathers the sixteen proposals and sixteen works most representative projects that illustrate the more direct approach that Palazuelo worked between geometric investigations and a given locus. For nearly four years, a detailed inventory and cataloguing of documents and works on paper, canvas and metal made by Palazuelo was developed. This research brings to light a set consisting of nearly four thousand works, mostly unpublished, that constitute the current archive of the aforementioned institution. Ultimately, this research builds a graph and geometric fabric referred to one of the most important Spanish artists of the twentieth century, interspersed by his theoretical thinking and achievements in drawings, models, sculptures and architectural proposals. Which allow establishing agreements and disagreements with the process of architecture to propose a new geometric interdisciplinary approach.

Identification of an early endosomal protein regulated by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase

Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases (PI 3-kinases) have been implicated in membrane trafficking in the secretory and endocytic pathways of yeast and mammalian cells, but the molecular mechanisms by which these lipid kinases operate are not known. Here we identify a protein of 170 kDa that is rapidly released from cell membranes in response to wortmannin, a potent inhibitor of mammalian PI 3-kinases. The amino acid sequence of peptides from p170 reveal its identity to early endosomal antigen (EEA) 1, an endosomal antigen with homology to several yeast proteins genetically implicated in membrane trafficking. Immunofluorescence analysis of 3T3-L1 adipocytes with antisera against p170/EEA1 reveal a punctate peripheral pattern that becomes diffuse in response to wortmannin. In vitro, p170/EEA1 binds specifically to liposomes containing PIns(3)P, suggesting that the effect of wortmannin on cells is due to inhibition of PIns(3)P production. Thus, p170/EEA1 may define a family of proteins that mediate the regulatory effects of 3′-phosphoinositides on membrane trafficking in yeast and mammalian cells.

Calcium-dependent switching of the specificity of phosphoinositide binding to synaptotagmin

The synaptic vesicle membrane protein synaptotagmin (tagmin) is essential for fast, calcium-dependent, neurotransmitter release and is likely to be the calcium sensor for exocytosis, because of its many calcium-dependent properties. Polyphosphoinositides are needed for exocytosis, but it has not been known why. We now provide a possible connection between these observations with the finding that the C2B domain of tagmin I binds phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIns-4,5-P2), its isomer phosphatidylinositol-3,4-bisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIns-3,4,5-P3). Calcium ions switch the specificity of this binding from PIns-3,4,5-P3 (at calcium concentrations found in resting nerve terminals) to PIns-4,5-P2 (at concentration of calcium required for transmitter release). Inositol polyphosphates, known blockers of neurotransmitter release, inhibit the binding of both PIns-4,5-P2 and PIns-3,4,5-P3 to tagmin. Our findings imply that tagmin may operate as a bimodal calcium sensor, switching bound lipids during exocytosis. This connection to polyphosphoinositides, compounds whose levels are physiologically regulated, could be important for long-term memory and learning.

Inhibitors of human heart chymase based on a peptide library.

We have synthesized two sets of noncleavable peptide-inhibitor libraries to map the S and S' subsites of human heart chymase. Human heart chymase is a chymotrypsin-like enzyme that converts angiotensin I to angiotensin II. The first library consists of peptides with 3-fluorobenzylpyruvamides in the P1 position. (Amino acid residues of substrates numbered P1, P2, etc., are toward the N-terminal direction, and P'1, P'2, etc., are toward the C-terminal direction from the scissile bond.) The P'1 and P'2 positions were varied to contain each one of the 20 naturally occurring amino acids and P'3 was kept constant as an arginine. The second library consists of peptides with phenylalanine keto-amides at P1, glycine in P'1, and benzyloxycarbonyl (Z)-isoleucine in P4. The P2 and P3 positions were varied to contain each of the naturally occurring amino acids, except for cysteine and methionine. The peptides of both libraries are attached to a solid support (pins). The peptides are evaluated by immersing the pins in a solution of the target enzyme and evaluating the amount of enzyme absorbed. The pins with the best inhibitors will absorb most enzyme. The libraries select the best and worst inhibitors within each group of peptides and provide an approximate ranking of the remaining peptides according to Ki. Through this library, we determined that Z-Ile-Glu-Pro-Phe-CO2Me and (F)-Phe-CO-Glu-Asp-ArgOMe should be the best inhibitors of chymase in this collection of peptide inhibitors. We synthesized the peptides and found Ki values were 1 nM and 1 microM, respectively. The corresponding Ki values for chymotrypsin were 10 nM and 100 microM. The use of libraries of inhibitors has advantages over the classical method of synthesis of potential inhibitors in solution: the libraries are reusable, the same libraries can be used with a variety of different serine proteases, and the method allows the screening of hundreds of compounds in short periods of time.

Estudo de efeitos da polarização eletrostática periférica no Tokamak TCABR

Efeitos da polarização eletrostática de eletrodos na periferia de tokamaks têm sido investigados em pequenos tokamaks e mesmo em alguns tokamaks de grande porte. Em geral as experiências são realizadas em condições em que bifurcação do campo elétrico radial é obtida, processo este identificado como modo H de polarização. No Tokamak TCABR, as experiências indicam que o confinamento aumenta para tensões aplicadas até +300 volts, atingindo um máximo de duas vezes o tempo de confinamento do modo L, mas sem bifurcação. Indícios de bifurcação foram notados com +400 V de polarização, mas a descarga termina devido à excitação da atividade MHD, ainda sob investigação. No presente trabalho, a pesquisa é aprofundada com a utilização de uma sonda de Langmuir com 18 pinos dispostos em duas fileiras sob a forma de um ancinho (rake probe) o que permite a medição da temperatura, densidade e flutuação de potencial ao longo do raio menor na periferia do Tokamak. A resolução temporal desse sistema é de cerca de 0,5 ms, para a temperatura, e 5 microssegundos para densidade e potencial flutuante do plasma. Outra sonda eletrostática com 5-pinos na mesma posição radial, mas em diferentes posições poloidal e toroidal foi usada para medições de turbulência e transporte de partículas. Os efeitos da polarização foram investigados e indicam que os níveis de turbulência e transporte começam a diminuir entre +150 e +200 V e para +300 V chegam a atingir uma quase supressão. Nesse mesmo intervalo de tensão a densidade começa a aumentar e para +300 V chega a ser um fator de aproximadamente 2. Quanto ao perfil de temperatura a variação é pouco significativa, mas as incertezas das medidas são maiores. Esses dados são compatíveis com a criação de uma barreira de transporte na região entre o eletrodo em r = 17 cm e o limitador em a = 18 cm. Além disso, o campo elétrico radial mostra forte cisalhamento nessa região. Tomando o início da subida do potencial flutuante como origem de uma escala de tempo, o atraso temporal do início da subida da densidade de elétrons e o atraso do início do decréscimo do transporte de partículas foram medidos. Os resultados são 50 microssegundos para a densidade de elétrons e 60 microssegundos para o transporte de partículas. A questão dos limiares de potência é discutida no texto. Os dados desta experiência indicam que o campo elétrico radial desempenha o papel principal para a melhoria do confinamento.
