Abstract: The article focuses on the judgment Al Bosco, rendered by the ECJ on 4th October 2018. Al Bosco gives a new insight as to how the ECJ interprets the following questions: firstly, it clarifies the relationship between the doctrine of extended effects and that of equivalent effects; secondly, it underlines the importance of the principle of legal certainty; finally, it addresses issues concerning the time limit for the enforcement of a provisional measure issued in a Member State other than the Member State in which enforcement is sought. Against such a background, I will examine the pos-sibility of introducing a uniform and autonomous concept of harmonized time limits within the EU.Keywords: Time limits, provisional measures, recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and com-mercial matters, civil judicial cooperation, harmonisation.Riassunto: lo scritto è di commento alla sentenza “Al Bosco”, pronunciata dalla CGUE il 4 ottobre 2018. L’arresto in parola si segnala per il quid novi introdotto dalla Corte di Lussemburgo sull’interpretazione di talune questioni: inizialmente, chiarifica il rapporto tra il principio di estensione dell’efficacia e quello di equivalenza degli effetti; sottolinea, quindi, la centralità del principio di legalità giuridica. Affronta, da ultimo, talune problematiche relative all’applicazione del termine per l’esecuzione di una misura cautelare (un sequestro conservativo) in un contesto transfrontaliero. La sentenza mi fornisce lo spunto per svolgere alcune brevi considerazioni circa l’opportunità di valutare l’introduzione di un concetto autonomo ed uniforme di termini processuali armonizzati all’interno dell’Unione Europea. Parole chiave: termini processuali, misure cautelari, riconoscimento ed esecuzione di decisioni in materia civile e commerciale, cooperazione giudiziale in materia civile, armonizzazione.

Full textAbstract:
Corneal pathologies in cats are the main causes of reduced visual acuity and blindness. Corneal sequestration is a specific disease of cats characterized by stromal necrosis of the cornea, in the form of black or brown foci of pathological tissue. If left untreated, sequestration consistently affects all layers of the cornea up to its perforation, which in turn leads to purulent inflammation of all the membranes of the eye and forced removal of the eye. In the last 5 years, corneal sequestration has taken one of the leading places among diseases of the organ of vision in cats, so the search for effective methods of treatment is one of the main issues in veterinary ophthalmology.Also, it is worth noting that in the course of studying the scientific literature, it was found that there were no works from other authors that directly compared the methods of treatment presented in my work.The aim of our study was to compare two treatments for corneal sequestration in cats.This article presents two methods of treating corneal sequestration in cats of various breeds: conservative and surgical. The clinical manifestations of corneal sequestration in cats are presented. The therapeutic efficacy of conservative treatment was studied. The description and effectiveness of the surgical method is given. In a comparative analysis of two options for treatment tactics in cats with corneal sequestration of the cornea, the surgical method of treatment is the most effective and radical, in comparison with the conservative one. First of all, this was due to the fact that the animals showed a complete restoration of visual ability, as well as a decrease in the risks of complications and relapses.

O objetivo desse trabalho foi avaliar o grau de severidade das queimadas e da perda do sequestro de carbono nas principais Unidades de Conservação do Distrito Federal nos anos de 2010 e 2011. Para determinar o grau de severidade utilizou-se índices espectrais antes e depois da queimada, como o índice de queimada por razão normalizada (NBR) e o índice relativo diferenciado de queimada por razão normalizada (RdNBR). O sequestro de carbono perdido pela queimada foi comparado antes, depois da queimada e na rebrota pelo índice espectral CO2flux. A relação entre a severidade e o sequestro de carbono também foi determinada por meio das imagens de pré-fogo, pós-fogo e da rebrota e a comparação temporal do CO2flux. As regressões obtidas para o ano de 2010 foram bastante de acordo com o esperado, com baixa relação antes da queimada, alta após, e menor na rebrota. Já para 2011, como ocorreram queimadas ao longo de todo o período, não foi possível verificar relações favoráveis. A B S T R A C T The aim of this study was to assess the burn severity and carbon sink in the Conservation Units at Distrito Federal in the 2010 and 2011. For the burn severity index was used to quantify biomass before and after burning, such as a Normalized Burn Ratio - NBR and relative differenced Normalized Burn Ratio - RdNBR indices. Carbon sink lost by the burning was compared before and after fire by regrowth CO2flux spectral index. The relationship between the burn severity and carbon sink were also made by means the pre, post-fire and regrowth images, and temporal comparison of CO2flux. The regressions obtained for the 2010 were largely in agreement with expectations, with a low pre-fire, after high and low in regrowth. Already in 2011, as fires occurred throughout the period, it was not possible to verify favorable relationships. Keywords: Biomass, burn severity, RdNBR, carbon sink, CO2flux.

Full textAbstract:
While the ocean has suffered many losses, there is increasing evidence that important progress is being made in marine conservation. Examples include striking recoveries of once-threatened species, increasing rates of protection of marine habitats, more sustainably managed fisheries and aquaculture, reductions in some forms of pollution, accelerating restoration of degraded habitats, and use of the ocean and its habitats to sequester carbon and provide clean energy. Many of these achievements have multiple benefits, including improved human well-being. Moreover, better understanding of how to implement conservation strategies effectively, new technologies and databases, increased integration of the natural and social sciences, and use of indigenous knowledge promise continued progress. Enormous challenges remain, and there is no single solution; successful efforts typically are neither quick nor cheap and require trust and collaboration. Nevertheless, a greater focus on solutions and successes will help them to become the norm rather than the exception.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Thinking with contemporary American novelist Lydia Millet’s How the Dead Dream (2007), this essay explores sleep as a form of ecological relief and argues that the form of the novel can critically expose the limitations of a “set-aside” approach to environmental conservation. As the protagonist T. loses the ability to sequester personal losses, he pursues co-sleeping opportunities with critically endangered animals both in zoos and in the wild. Through his somnolent form, the novel imagines sustainable and rehabilitative alternatives to traditional character development.

Full textAbstract:
Native California bees and other wild pollinators, which are essential to many fruit and vegetable crops, are being threatened by climate change, pesticides and habitat degradation. Carbon farming, a set of practices that sequester carbon in the soil or woody biomass, can create habitat that supports these pollinators. This paper focuses on habitat management and farming practices that both increase carbon sequestration and benefit pollinator communities. By incentivizing and supporting conservation practices that incorporate carbon farming, we can protect wild pollinators and increase the resilience of California agriculture in the face of ongoing climate change.

Full textAbstract:
4,000 patients with discogenic lumbosacral radiculitis were treated. 2,000 patients were managed conservatively, 1,000 patients underwent microdiscectomy and 1,000 patients underwent endoscopic discectomy. The authors of the paper compared indications for different types of treatment, effectiveness of treatment, and duration of rehabilitation. The age of patients in both groups ranged 18 to 78 years. Treatment outcomes were evaluated using the Macnab scale, including the need for additional treatment, duration of rehabilitation treatment, and terms of return to work. Currently, the results of conservative treatment of lumbar hernias are being discussed in the literature. In general, according to authors, the result of conservative treatment is inversely proportional to the size of hernias: the smaller the hernia, the more successful the treatment results. Moreover, there is no clear correlation with the conservative treatment methods. At the same time, the results of surgical intervention directly correlate with the size of hernias or sequesters: the larger the hernia, the better the outcome. Alternatively, microsurgical and endoscopic interventions were used with similar outcomes and relapse rates. The long-term outcomes were tracked using the Macnab scale. Relapses of hernias in the endoscopic discectomy group were found in 18 patients, which was 1.8%. Relapses of hernias in the microdiscectomy group were found in 11 patients, which was 1.1%. Modern conservative methods of treatment allow good outcomes for treatment of hernias even up to 8 mm. In patients with hernias 8 mm to 10 mm the results of conservative treatment were generally not satisfactory and relapses occurred quickly. In patients with hernias of more than 10 mm, conservative treatment is not recommended; positive outcomes are possible only with the use of surgical methods.

Il credito tributario è presidiato da mezzi di tutela e garanzie, previsti dall'ordinamento al fine di assicurare, lungo tutto l'arco del rapporto obbligatorio, il soddisfacimento effettivo dell'interesse fiscale. Il presente lavoro si prefigge lo scopo di esaminare sistematicamente i poteri cautelari attribuiti all'amministrazione finanziaria, evidenziando le differenze strutturali che caratterizzano le differenti tipologie di misure cautelari, secondo una tripartizione che esprime una diversità degli strumenti posti a disposizione degli enti impositori e dell'agente della riscossione. Il primo gruppo ha ad oggetto le misure disposte dall'autorità giurisdizionale su istanza degli enti impositori nella fase che precede la formazione del titolo esecutivo (ipoteca fiscale e sequestro conservativo); nel secondo rientrano le misure di autotutela cautelare disposte direttamente dagli enti impositori (iscrizione a ruolo e affidamento in carico "straordinari", fermo contabile e forme di sospensione dei rimborsi tributari); nella terza ed ultima categoria verranno esaminati il fermo di beni mobili registrati e l'ipoteca esattoriale, strumenti a disposizione dell'agente della riscossione, operanti a seguito della formazione del titolo esecutivo. L'analisi delle singole categorie porta a concludere che il rapporto tra l'esercizio dei poteri cautelari e il diritto alla difesa del contribuente evidenzia un sistema che tende ad attribuire all'amministrazione finanziaria poteri cautelari le cui dinamiche non sembrano rispettose, sia pur secondo diverse modulazioni che caratterizzano i singoli istituti, del principio di congruità del mezzo rispetto al fine e del bilanciamento dei contrapposti interessi giuridici. L'esercizio di tali facoltà è infatti in larga parte rimesso alla discrezionalità dell'amministrazione finanziaria, che ha il potere di incidere in via cautelare sul rapporto con il contribuente, differenziando il trattamento della singola fattispecie rispetto agli schemi ordinari dell'accertamento e della riscossione.

Full textAbstract:
Nell’elaborato si esamina la tutela cautelare anticipatoria quale forma di tutela minore rispetto a quella del processo ordinario, ma potenzialmente satisfattiva e autonoma e di frequente utilizzo in alcuni settori del diritto, quale, in particolare, il diritto della proprietà intellettuale e della concorrenza. Prendendo le mosse dalle nozioni di tutela anticipatoria elaborate dalla dottrina, si tenta di definire le caratteristiche di questa forma di tutela, così come è stata realizzata nel corso degli anni nell’ordinamento italiano, analizzando anche le esperienze, più risalenti e mature, dell’ordinamento francese, con la procédure en référé e dell’ordinamento tedesco, con le eistweilige Verfügungen. Si procede poi ad individuare le caratteristiche strutturali e funzionali dei provvedimenti cautelari anticipatori, e le loro differenze da quelli conservativi, alla luce delle norme sulla strumentalità attenuata introdotte, a partire dal 2003, nelle leggi speciali e nel codice di procedura civile, con particolare riguardo ai presupposti di concessione, all’autonomia, alla stabilità e all’efficacia, sul piano sostanziale e su quello processuale, di tali provvedimenti, e alle peculiarità dei giudizi di merito che eventualmente siano instaurati dopo il provvedimento cautelare anticipatorio. Si affronta, inoltre, il problema di quali siano gli effetti della sentenza anticipabili con il provvedimento cautelare, con riguardo alle pronunce di condanna, di mero accertamento e costitutive, e le forme di attuazione del provvedimento cautelare. Si procede, infine, con l’analisi dei provvedimenti cautelari anticipatori previsti dal codice della proprietà industriale e dalla legge sul diritto d’autore, ed in particolare dell’inibitoria e della sua attuazione, e si affronta il problema della stabilità di tali provvedimenti, alla luce delle norme nazionali e di quelle comunitarie ed internazionali.

Full textAbstract:
CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeiÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel SuperiorThe objective was to assess the changes promoted in the stocks and flows of C and N from the soil by farming systems agroforestry (agrosilvipasture - AGP and silvipasture - SILV) and traditional (TR), compared to natural vegetation of Caatinga (VN), after 13 years, the experiment was installed on a typical Ortic Chromic Luvisol, the city of Sobral, CearÃ. Soil samples were collected at depths 0-6, 6-12, 12-20, 20-40 and 40-60 cm, relief in four replicates per. Was determined by the total carbon carbon (TOC); total nitrogen (NT) and bulk density. The gas flow was measured using an analyzer in the field of O2, CO2, NO / NO x and SO 2 (UNIGAS Eurotron 3000). To this end, were used for still cameras based on galvanized steel and PVC cover installed in the field. The sampling was done in three replicates, considering the relief plan, convex and concave in each study situation. For each determination were performed triplicate, totaling nine chambers for relief. Soil samples were collected for determination of soil bulk density (Ds) and particle (Dp) and gravimetric moisture (Ug), which allowed the calculation of total porosity (Pt) and the pore space filled with water (EPPA). Among the agroforestry systems studied, the silvipasture, long-term, promoted greater reductions in C stocks and N, the system promoted agrossilvipastroil lower losses and represents a sustainable alternative to sequestration of soil C and N in the Brazilian semi-arid conditions. The traditional cropping system provided a reduction of 58.87 and 9.57 (Mg ha-1), which meant, a reduction of 6.5 and 1.06 (Mg ha-1), for those of TOC and TN, respectively. These results demonstrate the inadequacy of this system for the Brazilian semi-arid conditions. The concave topography (AGP) and flat (SILV) showed the highest values of TOC. For NT the concave shape (VN, AGP, and SILV) showed the highest values. Flows of C-CO2 varied with the time, AGP and SILV being similar to NV in the wet season, while in the dry season are higher. The TR has a different behavior, being higher during the wet season and similar to AGP and SILV in the dry. The flow behavior of NO present without a tendency similar to C-CO2: AGP and SILV presents similar to each other in the wet season, but smaller than VN. During the dry SILV and VN are larger than AGP. In TR NO was not detected in the two periods. The convex shape of relief TR system showed the highest values of C-CO2 fluxes in the wet season. In the dry season were found higher values of C-CO2 flows in AGP, SILV and RT, compared to NV flat terrain. Soil moisture was the variable most correlated with the fluxes of NO, what might be observed in systems SILV and AGP and VN convex reliefs.
Objetivou-se avaliar as alteraÃÃes promovidas nos estoques e fluxos de C e N do solo por sistemas agrÃcolas agroflorestais (Agrossilvipastoril â AGP e Silvipastoril â SILV) e tradicional (TR), comparativamente à vegetaÃÃo natural de Caatinga (VN), apÃs 13 anos, em experimento instalado sobre um Luvissolo CrÃmico Ãrtico tÃpico, no municÃpio de Sobral, CearÃ. Amostras de solo foram coletadas nas profundidades de 0-6, 6-12, 12-20, 20-40 e 40-60 cm, em quatro repetiÃÃes, considerando os relevos plano, convexo e cÃncavo em cada situaÃÃo de estudo. Nestas amostras foram determinados o carbono orgÃnico total do solo (COT), nitrogÃnio total (NT), densidades do solo (Ds) e de partÃcula (Dp) e a umidade gravimÃtrica (Ug), o que possibilitou o cÃlculo da porosidade total (Pt) e o espaÃo poroso preenchido por Ãgua (EPPA). O fluxo dos gases foi quantificado no campo utilizando um analisador de O2, CO2, NO/NOX e SO2 (UnigÃs Eurotron 3000). Para tanto, foram utilizadas cÃmaras estÃticas com base de aÃo galvanizado e tampa de PVC instaladas no campo em triplicatas, totalizando nove cÃmaras por relevo. Entre os sistemas agroflorestais estudados, o silvipastoril, em longo prazo, promoveu maiores reduÃÃes nos estoques de C e N, enquanto que agrossilvipastoril promoveu menores perdas, representando uma alternativa sustentÃvel para o sequestro de C e N do solo nas condiÃÃes semiÃridas brasileira. O sistema de cultivo tradicional (TR) apresentou reduÃÃo no perÃodo 13 anos de 58,87 e 9,57 Mg ha-1 (6,5 e 1,06 Mg ha-1 ano-1) dos estoques de COT e NT, respectivamente, o que comprova a nÃo adequaÃÃo deste sistema para as condiÃÃes semiÃridas brasileiras. Os relevos cÃncavo (AGP) e plano (SILV) apresentaram os maiores valores de estoques de COT, enquanto que para o NT, a forma cÃncava apresentou os maiores valores, no caso VN, AGP e SILV. Os fluxos de C-CO2 variaram com a Ãpoca, sendo AGP e SILV semelhantes à VN no perÃodo Ãmido, enquanto no perÃodo seco estes mesmos sistemas foram maiores. O TR apresenta comportamento diferenciado, sendo maior no perÃodo Ãmido e semelhante ao AGP e SILV no seco. Os fluxos de NO apresentaram comportamento com tendÃncia diferente do C-CO2: AGP e SILV apresentaram-se semelhantes entre si no perÃodo Ãmido, porÃm menores que VN. No perÃodo seco, SILV e VN foram maiores que AGP. No TR, o NO nÃo foi detectado nos dois perÃodos. O relevo convexo no TR apresentou os maiores valores de fluxos de C-CO2 no perÃodo Ãmido. No perÃodo seco foram encontrados maiores valores de fluxos de C-CO2 em AGP, SILV e TR em relaÃÃo à VN no relevo plano. A umidade do solo foi a variÃvel que mais se correlacionou com os fluxos de NO, o que pÃde ser observado nos sistemas SILV e AGP e na VN relevos convexos.

Full textAbstract:
This accessible text provides a concise but comprehensive introduction to the biology of global grasslands. Grasslands are vast in their extent, with native and non-native grasslands now covering approximately 50 percent of the global terrestrial environment. They are also of vital importance to humans, providing essential ecosystem services and some of the most important areas for the production of food and fibre worldwide. It has been estimated that 60 percent of calories consumed by humans originate from grasses, and most grain consumed is produced in areas that were formerly grasslands or wetlands. Grasslands are also important because they are used to raise forage for livestock, represent a source of biofuels, sequester vast amounts of carbon, provide urban green-space, and hold vast amounts of biodiversity. Intact grasslands contain an incredibly fascinating set of plants, animals, and microbes that have interested several generations of biologists, generating pivotal studies to important theoretical questions in ecology. As with other titles in the Biology of Habitats Series, the emphasis is on the organisms that dominate this environment although restoration, conservation, and experimental aspects are also considered. The Biology of Grasslands is suitable for both senior undergraduate and graduate students (in departments of biology, geography, and environmental science) taking courses in grassland ecology, plant ecology, and rangeland ecology as well as the many professional ecologists and conservation biologists requiring an authoritative overview of the topic.

Full textAbstract:
The 2°C target for global warming had been under severe scrutiny in the run-up to the climate negotiations in Paris in 2015 (COP21). Clearly, with a remaining carbon budget of 470–1,020 GtCO2eq from 2015 onwards for a 66% probability of stabilizing at concentration levels consistent with remaining below 2°C warming at the end of the 21st century and yearly emissions of about 40 GtCO2 per year, not much room is left for further postponing action. Many of the low stabilization pathways actually resort to the extraction of CO2 from the atmosphere (known as negative emissions or Carbon Dioxide Removal [CDR]), mostly by means of Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS): if the biomass feedstock is produced sustainably, the emissions would be low or even carbon-neutral, as the additional planting of biomass would sequester about as much CO2 as is generated during energy generation. If additionally carbon capture and storage is applied, then the emissions balance would be negative. Large BECCS deployment thus facilitates reaching the 2°C target, also allowing for some flexibility in other sectors that are difficult to decarbonize rapidly, such as the agricultural sector. However, the large reliance on BECCS has raised uneasiness among policymakers, the public, and even scientists, with risks to sustainability being voiced as the prime concern. For example, the large-scale deployment of BECCS would require vast areas of land to be set aside for the cultivation of biomass, which is feared to conflict with conservation of ecosystem services and with ensuring food security in the face of a still growing population.While the progress that has been made in Paris leading to an agreement on stabilizing “well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels” and “pursuing efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5°C” was mainly motivated by the extent of the impacts, which are perceived to be unacceptably high for some regions already at lower temperature increases, it has to be taken with a grain of salt: moving to 1.5°C will further shrink the time frame to act and BECCS will play an even bigger role. In fact, aiming at 1.5°C will substantially reduce the remaining carbon budget previously indicated for reaching 2°C. Recent research on the biophysical limits to BECCS and also other negative emissions options such as Direct Air Capture indicates that they all run into their respective bottlenecks—BECCS with respect to land requirements, but on the upside producing bioenergy as a side product, while Direct Air Capture does not need much land, but is more energy-intensive. In order to provide for the negative emissions needed for achieving the 1.5°C target in a sustainable way, a portfolio of negative emissions options needs to minimize unwanted effects on non–climate policy goals.

Full textAbstract:
Asian agriculture sector contributes about 44% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission. Predominantly paddy rice cultivation couples with indiscriminate use of agrochemicals, burning of fossil fuels in farm machinery majorly causes GHG emissions from farmlands in Asia. Presently, Asian soils have 25% cropland soil organic carbon (SOC) content but with moderately to highly vulnerability towards land degradation. To make up the soil carbon losses which has occurred due to continuous cultivation and tillage, it is recommended to adopt suitable carbon management practices to sequester carbon in soil through their physio-chemical protection. Conservation agriculture (CA), cover crop, crop diversification, integrated nutrient management (INM) and balanced fertilisation promotes better soil structure formation, stabilisation of aggregate associated carbon, microbial polymerisation of organic matter as well as a better root architecture. Carbon management practices not only improve soil fertility but also supports improved grain and straw yield. More the yield more biomass addition occurs to the soil. Soil carbon sequestration may not be the only panacea of climate change related issues, but is certainly a way forward to enriched soil fertility, improved agronomic production as well as adaptive- mitigation for offsetting anthropogenic GHG emission.

<em>Abstract</em>.—Mangrove ecosystems are being lost globally at an alarming rate due to deforestation, reclamation, and urbanization. Not only is the loss of these ecosystems detrimental to the commercially and ecologically important marine species they support, there is also a reduction in the ecosystem services they provide, namely mitigating rising carbon dioxide levels by serving as carbon sinks. These ecosystems, labeled as “blue carbon” sinks, potentially sequester more than 10 times the carbon that tropical and temperate ecosystems do. Thus, conservation and restoration of these blue carbon sinks is imperative. We explored how much carbon is currently stored in dwarf red mangrove <em>Rhizophora </em>mangle biomass in tidal creeks of Eleuthera, Bahamas. In October of 2012, four sites were selected near Cape Eleuthera, maximizing site variability. All sampling was done from six plots established at each site. The quantity of carbon stored in mangroves was determined from plant biomass, which was extrapolated from plant volumes. Mangrove volumes were determined from growth parameters of individuals. It was observed that there were large differences from site to site in number of individuals, sediment depth, biomass accumulation, and carbon allocation of mangroves, but the total amount of carbon stored from site to site in mangroves did not differ. The site with the greatest biomass and carbon storage also had the greatest sediment depth, suggesting a correlation between the two. Regardless of the site to site variability, mangroves proved to be good stores for carbon. Future work should search for the factors that explain site to site variability.
