Qué Peter Pan conocemos y cómo : Recorridos de un fenómeno intermedial desde su origen

En estas páginas haremos un rastreo de los orígenes, los cambios y las mutaciones del personaje y su historia hasta el modo en que lo conocimos y lo adoptamos como universal y nuestro a través de numerosos y diversos medios, como el cine, la televisión, el comic, el merchandising (por qué no), y los libros, por supuesto; pero también veremos que este niño que no quiere crecer ya nació volátil, inaprehensible, en la mente de J. M. Barrie, quien lo imaginó literario, teatral, cinematográfico, visual. ¿Quién es Peter Pan? ¿Qué imagen, idea, frase, se nos aparece apenas oímos ese nombre? ¿Será el pequeño bebé desnudo que habita los jardines de Kensington, los recorre montado en una cabra y actúa como orquesta de las hadas con la música de su flauta; o ese que se lleva a los hermanitos Darling a Nunca Jamás? ¿O será ese otro que viste de verde, como si fuera un Robin Hood niño, que todos, sin excepción, hemos visto alguna vez en la película de Disney, y/o en remeras, tazas, álbumes de figuritas, cuadernos, y un largo etcétera?

Geographic distribution of dinoflagellate cysts in surface sediments

Dinoflagellate cysts are useful for reconstructing upper water conditions. For adequate reconstructions detailed information is required about the relationship between modern day environmental conditions and the geographic distribution of cysts in sediments. This Atlas summarises the modern global distribution of 71 organicwalled dinoflagellate cyst species. The synthesis is based on the integration of literature sources together with data of 2405 globally distributed surface sediment samples that have been preparedwith a comparable methodology and taxonomy. The distribution patterns of individual cyst species are being comparedwith environmental factors that are knownto influence dinoflagellate growth, gamete production, encystment, excystment and preservation of their organic-walled cysts: surface water temperature, salinity, nitrate, phosphate, chlorophyll-a concentrations and bottom water oxygen concentrations. Graphs are provided for every species depicting the relationship between seasonal and annual variations of these parameters and the relative abundance of the species. Results have been compared with previously published records; an overview of the ecological significance as well as information about the seasonal production of each individual species is presented. The relationship between the cyst distribution and variation in the aforementioned environmental parameters was analysed by performing a canonical correspondence analysis. All tested variables showed a positive relationship on the 99% confidence level. Sea-surface temperature represents the parameter corresponding to the largest amount of variance within the dataset (40%) followed by nitrate, salinity, phosphate and bottom-water oxygen concentration, which correspond to 34%, 33%, 25% and 24% of the variance, respectively. Characterisations of selected environments as well as a discussion about how these factors could have influenced the final cyst yield in sediments are included.
