Abstract:
This study analyzes Lloyd Alexander's The Prydain Chronicles through a Jungian lens. Previous scholarship on Alexander's works has briefly considered archetypal criticism, but not extensively. Bruno Bettelheim's thoughts are used intermittently throughout the thesis. This study concentrates on Taran's individuation process, the discovery of true selfhood, and his consequent development of a whole psyche.

Abstract:
Les sprites sont de gigantesques phénomènes lumineux qui sont produits entre 40 et 90 km d’altitude généralement par des éclairs nuage-sol positifs. Les sprites sont des phénomènes très brefs (durée de quelques millisecondes) qui appartiennent à la famille des TLEs (évènements lumineux transitoires) et qui sont composés de structures filamentaires nommées streamers. Les streamers sont des filaments de plasma, qui se propagent à des vitesses allant jusqu’à ∼10⁷ m/s et qui possèdent des champs électriques très forts souvent proches de 150 kV/cm (champs réduit à la pression atmosphérique). Lors de ce travail, on a développé un modèle fluide de plasma qui simule les décharges streamers couplées avec un modèle simulant les émissions optiques afin d’étudier la physique des streamers, des TLEs et plus particulièrement des sprites dans le cadre de la mission spatiale TARANIS. Cette mission a pour objectif d’étudier le système Atmosphère-Ionosphère-Magnétosphère, et observera les TLEs et leurs émissions associées: électromagnétiques, optiques, et probablement radiations énergétiques depuis le nadir. Dans cette thèse, on propose d’étudier certains problèmes liés aux streamers et aux sprites qui sont cruciaux pour préparer la mission TARANIS. Plus particulièrement nous abordons certains mécanismes de production de radiations énergétiques par les streamers récemment proposés dans la littérature et nous développons une méthode qui permet de déterminer l’altitude, la vitesse et le champ électrique des streamers des sprites, à partir d’une analyse spectroscopique de leurs émissions optiques. Nos résultats renforceront donc le retour scientifique des futures missions spatiales observant les TLE depuis le nadir et particulièrement TARANIS
Sprites are large optical phenomena usually produced between 40 and 90 km altitude generally by positive cloud-to-ground lightning (+CG). These are short lifetime phenomena (duration of few milliseconds) that belong to the family of transient luminous events (TLEs) and composed of complex filamentary structures called streamers. Streamers are non-thermal plasma filament, highly collisional, propagating with velocities up to 10⁷ m/s, and characterized with high electric fields at their heads often close to 150 kV/cm when scaled to ground level air. In this work, we have developed a streamer plasma fluid model coupled with an optical emission model to investigate the physics of streamers and sprites in the framework of the TARANIS space mission. TARANIS will observe TLEs from a nadir-viewing geometry along with their related emissions (electromagnetic and particles). In this dissertation, we investigate some mechanisms of emission of energetic radiation from streamers recently proposed in the literature and we present an original spectroscopic method to determine sprite streamers altitudes, velocities, and electric fields through their optical emissions. This method is especially useful for increasing the scientific return of space missions that have adopted nadir-based observation strategies

Abstract:
A phenomenon during the late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age which in its simplest form could be called ‘a culture of the Baltic Sea’ is an idea which many archaeologists have favoured. However, the term ‘a culture of the Baltic Sea’ is not the most ideal to use when discussing the Baltic Sea during this time in prehistory, as the term is rather simplifying from what would be the more diverse truth. The term entails that there should have been a cultural homogeneity across the Baltic Sea as it most certainly was not. This thesis complicates this otherwise simplified term and calls the cultural phenomenon ‘a cultural hybrid of the northern Baltic Sea area’ (i.e. the northern part of the Baltic Sea including its neighbouring gulfs). A cultural hybrid, in this sense, allows there to be cultural differences within an area. These differences are accepted by the people within the cultural hybrid which in turn allow people to live among each other, rather than to become a social obstacle making the people separate into smaller and more homogenous cultural groups. This assumed existence of a cultural hybrid is put to the test as a hypothesis. To answer the hypothesis, the cultural hybrid is studied from the perspective of the tarand-graves (an Estonian originating grave type erected and used around the shores of the northern Baltic Sea area during 500 BC–500 AD) which in turn is interpreted according to ritual practice theory. The hypothesis is proven to be true which makes it possible to apply the concept of cultural hybridity, and its connection with tarand-graves in the northern Baltic Sea area, to the Åland Islands. Although the islands have a very promising geographical position in the middle of the northern Baltic Sea area, interestingly, no tarand-graves have been registered there. Grave field Ec 6.6 on the western side of the Åland Islands becomes the object of study mainly due to grave 14, which placed on that particular grave field, carries a high tarand-grave potential. The material is partly collected from two field visits to Ec 6.6 and partly from an excavational report from 1949 of the same grave field. The result shows that the Åland Islands, as well as Ec 6.6, have a very high likeliness of being hosts for tarand-graves.

Abstract:
The occupation of Moutoa Gardens in 1995 highlighted efforts by Whanganui iwi to draw attention to the non-settlement of long-standing land grievances arising out of land confiscations by the Crown in New Zealand in the 1860s. Maori attitudes to land have not been well understood by successive New Zealand governments since that time, nor by many Pakeha New Zealanders. In an effort to overcome that lack of understanding, this thesis studies a particular genre of Maori composition; namely, waiata tangi or songs of lament, which contain a strong indigenous sense of place component. The waiata used in this study derive from my tribal area of Taranaki, which is linked historically and through whakapapa with Whanganui iwi. These waiata were recorded in manuscript form in the 1890s by my great-grandfather Te Kahui Kararehe, and are a good source from which to draw conclusions about the traditional nature of Maori feelings for place. Two strands run throughout this thesis. The first examines the nature of Maori feelings for place and land, which have endured through primary socialisation to the present day. By focusing upon a form of expression that reveals the attachment of Maori towards their ancestral homelands, it is hoped that the largely monocultural Pakeha majority in New Zealand will be made aware of that attachment. It is also hoped that Pakeha may be suitably informed of the consequences of colonialist intervention in the affairs of the Maori people since 1840, which have resulted in cultural deprivation and material disadvantage at the present day. In the current climate of government moves to address the problems bequeathed them by their predecessors, it is important that the settlement of land claims and waterways under the Treaty of Waitangi should proceed unhindered by misapprehension and misinformation on the part of the public at large. The second strand of my thesis concerns the waiata texts themselves, which I wish to bring to the attention of the descendants of the composers of those waiata, who may or may not know of their existence. Since so much of value has been lost to the Maori world it is important that the culturally precious items that remain should be restored as soon as possible to those to whom they rightfully belong. Key themes examined in this thesis are the nature of Maori "feelings" for place and a "sense" of place; Maori research methodologies and considerations, including Maori cosmology and genealogical lines of descent; ethical concerns and intellectual property rights; ethnographic writings from the nineteenth century which tried to make sense of Maori imagery and habits of thought; the Kahui Papers from which the waiata were drawn; and the content and imagery of the waiata themselves. I also discuss the use of hermeneutics as a methodological device for unlocking the meanings of words and references in the waiata, and present the results both from a western sense of place perspective and a Maori viewpoint based on cultural concepts and understandings.

Abstract:
La provincia de Tarata se encuentra localizada al sur del Perú, específicamente en la región Tacna. Posee más de 7,000 habitantes, de los cuales solo la mitad ha culminado la secundaria. La actividad económica más importante de la provincia es la agricultura, destacando en la producción de orégano que no solo abastece el mercado local, sino que se exporta. Adicionalmente, se desarrollan proyectos mineros y algunas actividades turísticas incipientes. De acuerdo al modelo establecido se elaboró el plan estratégico para el año 2030, con lo cual la provincia de Tarata será totalmente autosostenible, manteniendo su liderazgo en la producción del orégano, pero desarrollando a su vez otros cultivos. Esto irá de la mano con el desarrollo del turismo vivencial, aprovechando la construcción de nuevas carreteras que facilitarán el acceso, y se continuará promoviendo la inversión minera, siempre que se respete el medio ambiente y no se presenten conflictos sociales. Para lograr esto, se implementarán las siguientes estrategias retenidas, que resultaron de un profundo análisis: (a) penetrar en el mercado de Brasil para la exportación de orégano, (b) desarrollar servicios turísticos rurales y vivenciales de una manera competitiva y sostenible en el tiempo; (c) penetrar en el mercado de Estados Unidos con el orégano, (d) desarrollar servicio de acopio de orégano y otros productos agrícolas, tomando la administración directa de la infraestructura; (e) desarrollar productos agroindustriales con valor agregado; y (f) establecer plantas de generación eléctrica a partir de combustible fosil en los distritos que aún no cuentan con este servicio. Además se establecieron cuatro objetivos de largo plazo, de los cuales derivan 11 objetivos de corto plazo
The province of Tarata is located in the south of Peru, specifically in the Tacna region. It has more than seven thousand inhabitants, of whom only half have completed secondary school. The most important economic activity of the province is agriculture, emphasizing in the production of oregano that not only supplies the local market, but it is exported. In addition, mining projects and some incipient tourist activities are being developed. According to the established model, the strategic plan for the year 2030 was elaborated, so that the province of Tarata will be totally self-sustaining, maintaining its leadership in the production of oregano, but in turn developing other crops. This will go hand in hand with the development of experiential tourism, taking advantage of the construction of new roads that will facilitate access, and will continue to promote mining investment, as long as the environment is respected and there are no social conflicts. To achieve this, the following retained strategies will be implemented, which resulted from an in-depth analysis: (a) penetrate the Brazilian market for the export of oregano, (b) developing rural and experiential tourism services in a competitive and sustainable manner over time; (c) to penetrate the US market with oregano, (d) to develop oregano and other agricultural productions, taking direct management of infrastructure to build roads to attract private investment in tourism, agriculture and mining, as well as facilitating the integration of communities; (e) build potable water networks for disused districts and improve the quality of life in marginal areas, and (f) develop value-added agroindustrial products; and (f) establish power generation plants from fossil fuel in districts that do not yet have this service. In addition, four long-term objectives were established, from which 11 short-term objectives were derived

Abstract:
The aim of this thesis is to examine the resilience and vulnerability of Taranaki communities to volcanic hazards, and to propose a strategy to ensure the safety and longevity of Taranaki residents in the event of an eruption. Mt Taranaki is a dormant volcano that is surrounded by a ring plain populated by over 100,000 people. The volcano has had an average eruptive cycle of 330 years, with the last eruption dated at ~1755 AD. Hazards include ash fall, lahars, debris avalanches and pyroclastic density currents. Inglewood, Stratford and Opunake are the largest population centres located in moderate to high hazard zones, and for this reason were chosen as the study communities. Resilience is defined as the capacity to respond to a hazard event by physically and psychologically recovering, adapting to, or changing to similar or better conditions than those experienced before the event. Vulnerability is defined to be people�s incapacity to cope with a hazardous event as a result of their personal characteristics. A person�s vulnerability and resilience is influenced by demographic variables, socio-cognitive variables and preparedness. Inglewood, Stratford and Opunake adults have good self-efficacy and action-coping use, fair risk perceptions, outcome expectancy and response efficacy, but poor understanding of event timing relative to eruption probability, critical awareness, preparedness and information-seeking intentions and preparedness levels. Preparedness is found to be influenced by residents� intentions to prepare, which in turn are influenced by critical awareness, action-coping and outcome expectancy. Taranaki students have a fair awareness of hazard and knowledge of correct response behaviours to various hazards. Preparedness, in terms of preparedness measures undertaken, emergency plans made and emergency practices in place, is low. Students who have participated in hazard-education programmes have a better knowledge of response behaviours, lower levels of hazard-related fear, and reported higher level of preparedness. Spatial analyses, carried out to determine the geographic distribution of at-risk groups within the study communities, showed that the areas most at-risk tend to be those with the highest population densities. The spatial analysis was not as beneficial as expected, due to small data sets, but did provide some results to be considered as a basis for further research. Effective public education can be achieved when delivered to a set of guidelines, such as providing information regularly through multiple media and sources, ensuring consistent messages, targeting information to at-risk groups and monitoring programme effectiveness. Community capacity building projects decrease aspects of vulnerability and build resilience by working at a local scale and targeting at-risk groups. Psychological preparedness education helps citizens to mentally prepare for an event and should be a component of all projects. The proposed strategy calls for (a) forming partnerships with relevant stakeholders to assist with public education, research, and funding, (b) further research into the characteristics of Taranaki communities and effective public education campaigns, (c) the development and implementation of a public education schedule and projects that build community capacity, and d) long-term planning, periodic revision of programmes and consistent public engagement.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis presents an argument for examining the politics of postconflict and demonstrates how the new, and uniquely, politicized contestations in a post-CPA Nepal have contributed to continued local-level violence. Based on one year of ethnographic fieldwork in Nepal, this thesis examines violence in the postconflict period, specifically in the central-eastern tarai region between the years 2007 and 2009. The thesis asks: How was the local level violence that persisted after the signing of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement understood by conflict actors and civilians in the central-eastern tarai? Furthermore, how do NSAG members and civilians experience that violence? More broadly, how are social relationships being negotiated in the postconflict period and how have such transformations impacted on individual and collective lives in the central-eastern tarai region of Nepal? The study focuses on the border as the unit of analysis and examines the relationship between borders and belonging in Nepal. The study proposes that the key variable that explains lowintensity violence in the central-eastern tarai is the proposal of ethnofederalism. It analyzes how the formation of the nation and relations between the state and central-eastern tarai residents impacted on NSAG recruitment and activism. The study offers new empirical data by presenting an ethnography of NSAG recruitment and participation as well as narratives of civilian perceptions of, and experiences with, violence. This study aims to fill a gap in the conflict recurrence literature which assumes that the actors who are involved in conflict violence and 'postconflict' violence are one and the same. The main theoretical contribution of this thesis is the finding that new actors are involved in low-intensity violence in the 'postconflict' period in the central-eastern tarai region of Nepal.

This thesis assesses the extent to which the 1996 Waitangi Tribunal report "Taranaki Report Kaupapa Tuatahi" allowed for and took heed of Maori forms of telling history. In particular, this thesis examines whether the Tribunal reconciles the differences between a Maori perspective and the Western university tradition, or if Maori history is manipulated by the Tribunal process. Due to the nature of the Waitangi Tribunal, as well as its empowering statute, the extent to which it may incorporate the Maori history within its reports is limited, it does not incorporate other means by which Maori tell their histories. The Waitangi Tribunal process, however, has had an unforseen outcome: the compilation and preservation of a fantastic historical primary source detailing Maori history. It is imperative that this resource not go unrecognised, and that these primary sources are able to be accessed by researches with an interest in Taranaki Maori

Full text
Abstract:
Centro nevralgico nella redazione del nuovo piano urbanistico generale, del quale la città dovrà necessariamente dotarsi entro il 2018, l’area di Porta Napoli a Taranto è di fondamentale importanza per dare delle risposte alle esigenze di una città che soffre della mancanza di un piano che dia ordine e corregga quanto si sia aggiunto e sedimentato in maniera sconnessa e ingiustificata nel tempo. L’attuale interesse, sempre crescente, per le aree dismesse e irrisolte, si collega alla volontà di evitare che la città si allarghi ancora. In linea con la visione di un’urbanistica più vicina alle politiche di sviluppo sostenibile per cui limitare l’espansione delle periferie e dei margini della città vuol dire migliorare quanto è già stato costruito, intensificare gli spazi costruiti e riqualificare il “terzo paesaggio” affinché le città abbiano possibilità di crescere all’interno.Le condensate vicende economiche susseguitesi nell’ultimo secolo hanno profondamente cambiato il volto di Taranto. Non si tratta solo della forma della città ma del rapporto uomo-ambiente o meglio del difficile rapporto individuo-città. Il fenomeno di crisi identitaria e perdita di appartenenza del cittadino si riflette nella qualità dello spazio urbano e in particolare dello spazio pubblico. L’area in questione è nella parte nord-occidentale della città. Un fazzoletto di terra fra i due mari, il Mar Piccolo e il Mar Grande, e fra due poli in egual misura importanti, il polo industriale e la Città Vecchia, oggetto di un sempre maggiore e crescente interesse. Pensare alla riqualificazione di Porta Napoli vuol dire riflettere sul concetto di vuoto, sulla ridefinizione di spazi con un carattere distintivo e quindi creare luoghi dove si ri-costituisce un’identità. Si tratta di pensare al ruolo significativo che una singola parte può svolgere nello sviluppo e nelle sorti di rinnovamento dell‘immagine della città intera che dovrà superare la dipendenza dalla grande industria.

Full text
Abstract:
Le richieste dei consumatori verso l’industria alimentare sono sempre più esigenti in termini di sicurezza e di mantenimento di ottime caratteristiche nutrizionali e qualitative per periodi di tempo sempre più prolungati. I prodotti da forno come biscotti e taralli, sono tra quelli cui si richiede una lunga shelf-life, ma che possono subire un irrancidimento, dovuto all’ossidazione lipidica, con formazione di off-flavours dovuti ad aldeidi alifatiche o altri composti volatili. Questa reazione di ossidazione lipidica è una delle principali degradazioni che possono avvenire a carico dei lipidi e può essere influenzata da vari fattori come luce, temperatura e pressione parziale d’ossigeno, ma anche fattori intrinseci come la presenza di sostanze antiossidanti naturalmente presenti e la composizione in acidi grassi di oli e grassi. In questo lavoro di tesi la stabilità ossidativa di taralli e biscotti è stata valutata tramite l’uso dello strumento OXITEST®, un test ad ossidazione accelerata con parametri di temperatura e pressione parziale d’ossigeno controllati. Biscotti e taralli preparati con diversa matrice lipidica, hanno rivelato diversa stabilità ai fenomeni ossidativi. Infatti, per quanto riguarda la stabilità all’ossidazione lipidica dei taralli, questa è favorita dalla composizione in acidi grassi di oli e grassi e dalla presenza di sostanze antiossidanti naturalmente presenti, come tocoferoli e polifenoli; mentre per quanto riguarda i biscotti, anche la presenza di scorza di limone con le sue proprietà antiossidanti, zuccheri riducenti e proteine che partecipano alla reazioni di Maillard con produzione di composti ad attività antiossidante, contribuiscono ad una maggior resistenza ai processi ossidativi. Inoltre, lo strumento OXITEST® si è rivelato un ottimo metodo per poter valutare in tempi ridotti la stabilità dei campioni in analisi al fine di poter scegliere la perfetta formulazione per un più duraturo mantenimento delle caratteristiche desiderate.

Dessa forma, lan?amos m?o de dois vieses para estud?-los, e a partir da?, comprovarmos ou n?o a exist?ncia desses grupos: literatura e documenta??o da ?poca que atestam, de forma pouco confi?vel e distorcida, a exist?ncia dos Cariris e Tarairi?s nos Sert?es da Para?ba, e atividades de cunho arqueol?gico, escavando-se quatro s?tios arqueol?gicos em prov?veis lugares habitados por esses grupos, sendo dois s?tios correspondentes a cada etnia: Pinturas I e Furna dos Ossos - Cariri; e Caba?as I e Tanque do Capim - Tarairi?. Essa atividade visa ? coleta de tra?os da cultura material desses grupos humanos. A partir da jun??o dos dois vieses, conseguimos subs?dios para tra?ar o perfil cultural de cada grupo, bem como, buscar seus meios de apresenta??es. A pesquisa torna-se relevante para o povo paraibano na medida em que resgatamos, tamb?m, o legado cultural herdado por esses grupos no processo de forma??o da sociedade contempor?nea. Assim, identificamos que os ?ndios Cariris e Tarairi?s, definitivamente, ocuparam os Sert?es da Para?ba, eram grupos distintos; portanto, apresentando caracter?sticas diferentes que lhes servem como formas de apresenta??es. No geral, percebemos a forte heran?a s?cio/econ?mico/cultural/ambiental que o povo paraibano assimilou desses grupos, sendo que nossa pesquisa recupera a imagem desses grupos ?tnicos, fazendo-os falar, cumprindo com uma d?diva que se honra com a hist?ria dos Cariris e Tarairi?s e com os seus descendentes na Para?ba, emudecidos pela ferocidade do processo colonizador.

Abstract:
La conservabilità dello snack tipico della panetteria italiana "Tarallini" dipende dalla ricetta e dalle condizioni di cottura e conservazione. In questo lavoro di tesi si è studiata la stabilità ossidativa di taralli formulati con miscele lipidiche diverse durante un periodo di shelf life di circa due mesi e mezzo. I campioni sono stati formulati con olio EVO, con una miscela di olio EVO e olio di riso e il terzo campione è costituito da olio di girasole alto oleico e olio di cocco. Per poter valutare come la diversa frazione lipidica e come anche le interazioni con gli ingredienti propri del campione possano influenzare la conservabilità di taralli, sono state svolte analisi sull'ossidazione lipidica degli olii. In particolare è stata svolta la determinazione dei prodotti primari dell'ossidazione, determinazione dei perossidi; poi sono stati quantificati i prodotti secondari, ovvero i composti volatili, in particolare Esanale che è il composto target per valutare l'ossidazione dell'alimento; ed infine i campioni sono stati sottoposti ad OXITEST, un test di ossidazione accelerata. Dallo studio effettuato emerge che il campione formulato con EVO nonostante sia più suscettibile all'ossidazione è quello che presenta caratteristiche organolettiche e nutritive migliori, a differenza degli altri due campioni che resistono meglio all'ossidazione lipidica, in particolare il campione formulato con olio di girasole altro oleico e olio di cocco.

Abstract:
With an increasingly technological and competitive world economy, more jobs require employees to have achieved the advanced skills and knowledge gained only through postsecondary education. The data regarding the supply and demand between the workforce and higher education present a challenge for community college technical programs. These are the programs charged training the new workforce. An effort to increase the persistence and three-year graduation rate for technical students is one of Tarrant County College District's initiatives to prepare students for the workforce. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine factors that contribute to the three-year graduation rates of students enrolled in technical programs at the Northwest Campus of the Tarrant County College District. A quantitative survey approach was selected for this study targeting 191 technical students. The results of this study showed that females, who had established a degree plan and declared a major during the first two semesters at the urban community college campus under study, graduated in three years. The graduation rates for males in this study were lower than for females. Also, technical students who were 18 to 35 years old were more likely to graduate. Students who did not complete a degree plan in the first two semesters did not graduate in the three-year time frame. For the 77 respondents, students were more likely to graduate if they declared a major and established a degree plan. Implications for practice and recommendations for further study are provided.

Full text
Abstract:
Les satellites en orbite terrestre se déplacent dans le plasma ionosphérique, un mélange de particules chargées, et éventuellement de particules neutres. Des électrons et des ions issus de ce plasma, ainsi que les émissions Ultra-Violets(UV) en provenance du soleil, interagissent avec les surfaces du satellite et modifient sa charge électrostatique. Cette chargement peut induire elle-même des décharges électrostatiques aux conséquences allant de perturbations électromagnétiques (fausses commandes par exemple) à la perte du satellite. En orbites de basse altitude (LEO) l'énergie cinétique et thermique du plasma est généralement faible et donc, les satellites vont rarement présenter des décharges importantes. Néanmoins, les missions scientifiques qui embarquent des instruments très performants et précis peuvent être affectées par cette interaction satellite-plasma-émissions UV. Cette thèse s'intéresse particulièrement à ces phénomènes de charge des structures externes du satellite et à l'impact de ce chargement sur les mesures scientifiques effectuées à bord, i.e. mesures du champ électrique et de la densité du plasma thermique
Earth-orbiting satellites travel in ionospheric plasma, a mixture of charged particles, and possibly neutral particles. Electrons and ions from this plasma, as well as Ultra-Violet (UV) emissions from the sun, interact with the surfaces of the satellite and modify its electrostatic charge. This loading can itself induce electrostatic discharges to the consequences ranging from electromagnetic disturbances (false commands for example) to the loss of the satellite. In low-Earth orbits (LEO), the kinetic and thermal energy of the plasma is generally low and therefore satellites rarely exhibit large discharges. Nevertheless, scientific missions that carry high-performance and accurate instruments can be affected by this satellite-plasma-UV-emissions interaction. This thesis is particularly interested in these phenomena of charge of the external structures of the satellite and the impact of this load on the scientific measurements carried out on board, i.e. measures of the electric field and the density of the thermal plasma

Abstract:
This project demonstrates the construction of a land planning geographic information system (GIS) for Tarrant County, and explores how the technology could be used to select sites for a county wide open space preservation plan. As Texas' Tarrant County continues to undergo rapid change due to growth and expansion, the need for proactive, resourceful community planning is greater than ever. One crucial issue facing the region is how to preserve open areas that serve the county's citizens' ecological, recreational, cultural and economic needs. In order to assess how much open space is needed and which sites should be considered for special attention, large amounts of varied spatial information must be analyzed. The answer to effectively dealing with such data sets is a geographic information system (GIS) that stores all pertinent data digitally and allows for its manipulation through use of a computer software package. This project demonstrates the construction of a land planning GIS for Tarrant County, and explores how the technology could be used to select sites for a county wide open space preservation plan.

The second, more argumentative part, attempts to show that the most natural environment for this proposal is a platonic metaphysics of a neo-Fregean variety.

Aquesta tesi té com a objectiu principal l’estudi de l’urbanisme i els models d’ocupació del suburbi portuari de Tarraco entre els segles III i VIII dC. Davant la manca d’informació arqueològica directa sobre el port romà, l’anàlisi d’aquest extens sector de la ciutat ens permet conèixer de manera indirecta la seva evolució. Així, s’ha identificat la xarxa viària que va vertebrar i organitzar l'urbanisme del suburbi fins ben avançat el segle VII dC, amb dos eixos principals en sentit nord-est sud-oest i diversos carrers secundaris. Igualment. s’ha constatat una gran diversitat d’edificis, els quals s’erigeixen especialment a partir del segle V dC, en una etapa de creixement i bonança econòmica de la ciutat. En primera línia de costa s’ubicaven les naus d’emmagatzematge, mentre que en un punt més septentrional s'hi trobaven els edificis residencials. Paral·lelament, sorgeixen diverses zones funeràries i, especialment durant els darrers segles de l'Antiguitat tardana, s'edifiquen també tallers de producció artesanal. Tot plegat mostra el dinamisme d’un suburbi amb una clara funció principal, la portuària, que va ser el centre econòmic de Tarraco.

Ante la falta de información arqueológica directa sobre el puerto romano, el análisis de este extenso sector de la ciudad nos permite conocer de manera indirecta su evolución. Así, se ha identificado la red viaria que vertebró y organizó el urbanismo del suburbio hasta bien avanzado el siglo VII d.C., con dos ejes principales en sentido nordeste-sudoeste y varias calles secundarias. Igualmente, se ha constatado una gran diversidad de edificios, los cuales se erigieron especialmente a partir del siglo V d.C., durante una etapa de crecimiento y pujanza económica de la ciudad. En primera línea de costa se ubicaban las naves de almacenaje, mientras que en un punto más septentrional se encontraban los edificios residenciales. Paralelamente, surgen diversas zonas funerarias y, especialmente durante los últimos siglos de la Antigüedad tardía, se edifican también talleres de producción artesanal. Todo ello muestra el dinamismo de un suburbio con una clara función principal, la portuaria, que fue el centro económico de Tarraco.
The main aim of this thesis is to study the urbanism and land use models of the port suburb of Tarraco from the 3rd to the 8th century AD. Due to the lack of direct archaeological information about the roman harbour, the analysis of this large sector of the city allows us to indirectly find out about its development. Thus the street layout has been identified, which organised the urban planning of the suburb until the second half of the 7th century and had two main axis oriented northeast-southwest as well as many other secondary streets. Likewise, multiple buildings have been attested, which were erected especially from the 5th century onwards, during a period of economic growth in the city. Near the shoreline warehouses were located, while the residential buildings were placed on a more northerly area. At the same time, several funerary areas arose and, especially during the latest centuries of the Late Antique period, craft workshops were built. All of that demonstrates the dynamism of this suburb, which functioned as the port area and was the economic centre of Tarraco.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Achieving food security and reducing hunger requires comprehensive measurement for proper identification of the food insecure, the severity of food insecurity, its causes, and progress in reducing food insecurity. Measuring food security is challenging due to its multidimensional nature as all four dimensions (availability, access, utilisation, and stability) need to be achieved simultaneously. Comprehensive measurement has not been achieved as most existing indicators have a unidimensional focus and efforts to find a ‘composite indicator’ (a catch all measurement tool) have thus far been unsuccessful. This study therefore identified how the three most widely used indicators of food security, the Household Food Insecurity Access Scale (HFIAS), Dietary Diversity Score (DDS) and the Coping Strategies Index (CSI), can complement one other in capturing the multiple dimensions of food security. The study brought them together in one cross-sectional household survey of 409 randomly selected households in Taraba State, Nigeria. The results show that 69 percent of households in Taraba had a very low food security status, 23 percent had low food security, and 8 percent had high or marginal food security. About 34 percent of the households used very erosive coping strategies. Very low food security status was found to be associated with: a household head who is a farmer, less educated, or divorced; low household income and expenditure; large household size; and not owning large plots of land. The survey revealed that most households that obtain the greater proportion of their food from own production, and spend most of their income on the purchase of starchy staples were in the very low food security category. Those that sourced their food mainly through purchase, and spent more on fresh fruit and vegetables, meat, fish, eggs, and processed foods were in the high or marginal food security category. The study showed that the key indicators followed a clear complementary pattern. The bivariate analysis showed a significant difference (P<0.01) in DDS and CSI across HFIAS categories. The HFIAS very low food security category is characterised by the lowest food diversity and highest CSI, revealing that the depth of food insecurity is intense among the extreme group. The study demonstrated that these three indicators can be used together for a fuller understanding of the relationships between the different dimensions of food security, and recommended more studies in using complementary indicators to measure food security. This thesis is presented as the two academic articles option: the first article reviews the measurement of food security and complementarity of the three measures, while the second article discusses the findings of the survey.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die bereiking van voedselsekerheid en die bekamping van hongersnood vereis omvattende meting vir die korrekte identifikasie van voedselonsekerheid, die erns daarvan, die oorsake daarvan, en die proses van voedselonsekerheidvermindering. Die meting van voedselsekerheid is ʼn uitdaging as gevolg van die multidimensionele aard daarvan, aangesien die onderskeie dimensies (beskikbaarheid, toegang, benutting, en stabiliteit) tegelyktydig bereik moet word. Omvattende meting is nog nie bereik nie, aangesien bestaande aanwysers ʼn eendimensionele fokus het, en aangesien pogings om ʼn ‘saamgestelde aanwyser’ (‘n allesomvattende metingsinstrument) te vind, tot dusver onsuksesvol was. Hierdie studie het dus geïdentifiseer hoe die drie mees algemene aanwysers vir voedselsekerheid, naamlik die Huishoudelike Voedselonsekerheid Toegangskaal (HFIAS), die Dieetkundige Diversiteitstelling (DDS) en die Hanteringstrategieë Indeks (CSI), mekaar kan aanvul om die verskeie dimensies van voedselsekuriteit vas te vang. Die studie het die bogenoemde instrumente saam geïmplementeer in ʼn deursnee-huishoudelike opname van 409 ewekansig-geselekteerde huishoudings in Taraba Staat, Nigerië. Die resultate het 69 persent van huishoudings in Taraba met ‘n baie lae voedselsekerheid-status getoon, 23 persent met ʼn lae voedselsekerheid-status, en 8 persent met ʼn hoë of geringe voedselsekerheid-status. Ongeveer 34 persent van die huishoudings het baie verwerende hanteringsstrategieë gebruik. Baie lae voedselsekerheid-status is bevind om meer geassosieer te word met: ʼn huishoudelike hoof wat ʼn boer is, minder opgevoed is, of geskei is; waar daar lae huishoudelike inkomste en uitgawes teenwoordig is; ʼn groot huishoudelike grootte; en die nie-besitting van eiendom. Die opname het geopenbaar dat die meeste huishoudings wat die grootter proporsie van hulle voedsel vanaf eie produksie verkry, en die meeste van hulle inkomste op die aankoop van styselagtige stapelvoedsel spandeer, in die baie lae voedselsekerheid-kategorie geval het. Diegene wat hulle voedsel hoofsaaklik deur aankope verkry het, en meer spandeer het op vars vrugte, groente, vleis, vis, eiers en geprosesseerde kosse, was in die hoë/ geringe voedselsekerheid kategorie. Die studie het bevind dat die sleutelaanwysers ʼn duidelike aanvullende patroon gevolg het. Die tweeveranderlike ontleding het ʼn beduidende verskil (P<0.01) in DDS en CSI oor HFIAS-kategorieë getoon. Die HIFIAS baie lae voedselsekerheidkategorie word gekenmerk deur die laagste voedseldiversiteit en hoogste CSI, wat openbaar dat die diepte van voedselonsekerheid intensief is onder die uiterste groep. Die studie het gedemonstreer dat hierdie drie aanwysers saam gebruik kan word om ʼn beter begrip van die verhoudings tussen die verskillende dimensies van voedselsekuriteit te verkry, en daar is aanbeveel dat meer navorsing onderneem word aangaande die gebruik van aanvullende aanwysers om voedselsekuriteit te meet. Hierdie tesis word aangebied as die twee-akademiese-artikels opsie: die eerste artikel bied ʼn oorsig van die meting van voedselsekerheid en die aanvullendheid van die drie instrumente, terwyl die tweede artikel die bevindinge van die studie bespreek.

Abstract:
En el present treball s’estudien els vidres de l’antiguitat tardana, és a dir els vidre del període romà baix imperial (s. IV-V) i del període visigòtic (s. VI-VIII), del territori de la província de la Tarraconensis oriental, actualment formada pels territoris de Catalunya i Andorra. En concret s’analitzen 118 jaciments, excavats al llarg del darrer segle, a partir de la lectura de les memòries d’excavació i de les publicacions específiques i, sobretot, a partir de l’estudi en directe dels materials arqueològics conservats -essencialment les ceràmiques-, tot i que també es tenen en compte les datacions estratigràfiques, numismàtiques i de 14C. Així, partir de datacions de cada jaciment, es presenta una proposta d’enquadrament cronològic de cadascun dels contextos documentats en ells. Els vidres d’aquests 118 jaciments han estat inventariats i s’ha procedit a la descripció formal i mètrica -amb dibuix i fotografia- de cada fragment amb forma i/o decoració. Posteriorment s’ha calculat en número mínim d’individus (NMI) i s’ha procedit ha estudiar-los en conjunt, en el marc del seu context, estratigràfic, estructural o del jaciments en sí. A partir de l’anàlisi estratigràfic i de la periodització dels contextos s’ha procedit a elaborar una proposta de classificació tipològica, utilitzant les classificacions de referència més habituals en l’ambit de l’estudi del vidre en el món romà, com és la de Clasina Isings (Isings 1957), i del món visigòtic, com és la de Danielle Foy (Foy 1995), tot i tenir en compte altres tipologies més específiques, com la de les llànties de l’antiguitat tardana d’Egipte (Crowfoot & Harden 1936) o de les llànties del nord d’Itàlia (Uboldi 1995). Amb aquesta tipologia, elaborada en base als contextos estratigràfics estudiats, es poden seriar les diferents vaixelles i objectes de vidre de l’antiguitat tardana. Amb ells es té un altre tipus de material, que junt amb el registre ceràmic, numismàtic i les datacions de 14C permeten ponderar la cronologia de tots els jaciments arqueològics d’aquest període i, de la mateixa manera, datar gran part dels jaciments rurals de l’antiguitat tardana, on els únics fòssils directors presents són la ceràmica de cuina i el vidre. Així doncs, amb aquesta tesi es donen a conèixer i s’articulen estructuralment totes les produccions vítries de l’antiguitat tardana de Catalunya i Andorra, i amb ella és poden iniciar altres treballs -més específics i definits- com pot ser l’anàlisi arqueomètrica dels diferents tipus de vidres i així aprofundir en la difusió, el comerç i la presència de l’artesanat vidrier d’aquest període a la Tarraconensis oriental.
En el presente trabajo se estudian los vidrios de la antigüedad tardía, es decir, los vidrios del periodo romano bajo imperial (s. IV-V) y del período visigodo (s. VI-VIII), documentados en el territorio de la provincia de la Tarraconensis oriental, actualmente formada por los territorios de Cataluña y Andorra. En concreto se analizan 118 yacimientos, excavados a lo largo del último siglo, a partir de la lectura de las memorias de excavación y de las publicaciones específicas y, sobre todo, a partir del estudio en directo de los materiales arqueológicos conservados -esencialmente las cerámicas-, aunque también se tienen en cuenta las dataciones estratigráficas, numismáticas y de 14C. Así, partir de dataciones de cada yacimiento, se presenta una propuesta de encuadre cronológico de cada uno de los contextos documentados. Los vidrios de estos 118 yacimientos han sido inventariados y se ha procedido a la descripción formal y métrica -con dibujo y fotografía- de cada fragmento con forma y/o decoración. Posteriormente se ha calculado en número mínimo de individuos (NMI) y se ha procedido a estudiarlos en conjunto, en el marco de su contexto, es decir, estratigráfico, estructural o del yacimientos en sí. A partir del análisis estratigráfico y de la periodización de los contextos se ha procedido a elaborar una propuesta de seriación tipológica, utilizando las clasificaciones de referencia más habituales en el ámbito del estudio del vidrio en el mundo romano, como es la de Clasina Isings (Isings 1957), y del mundo visigodo, como es la de Danielle Foy (Foy 1995), teniendo también en cuenta otras tipologías más específicas, como la de las lámparas de la antigüedad tardía de Egipto (Crowfoot & Harden 1936) o de las lámparas del norte de Italia (Uboldi 1995). Con esta tipología, elaborada en base a los contextos estratigráficos estudiados, se pueden seriar las diferentes vajillas y objetos de vidrio de la antigüedad tardía. Con ellos se tiene otro tipo de material, que junto con el registro cerámico, numismático y las dataciones de 14C permiten ponderar la cronología de todos los yacimientos arqueológicos de este periodo y, del mismo modo, fechar gran parte de los yacimientos rurales de la antigüedad tardía, donde los únicos fósiles directores presentes son esencialmente, la cerámica de cocina y el vidrio. Así pues, con esta tesis se dan a conocer y se articulan estructuralmente todas las producciones vítreas de la antigüedad tardía de Cataluña y Andorra, y con ella se pueden iniciar otros trabajos -más específicos y definidos- como puede ser el análisis arqueométrico de los diferentes tipos de vidrios y así profundizar en la difusión, el comercio y la presencia del artesanado del vidrio de este período en la Tarraconensis oriental.
In the present work the glass of the late antiquity is studied, that is: the glasses of the late roman period (s. IV-V) and the visigothic period (s. VI-VIII), in the territory of the province of the eastern Tarraconensis, currently formed by the territories of Catalonia and Andorra. Specifically, 118 sites are analysed, all excavated over the last century, from reading the excavation reports and specific publications, and above all, from the study of the preserved archaeological materials -essentially the ceramics-, although stratigraphic, numismatic and 14C data are also taken into account. Thus, based on the dating of each site, a proposal for a chronological framing of each of the contexts documented in them is presented. The glass of these 118 sites has been inventoried and a formal and metrical description has been made -with drawing and photography- of each fragment with shape and / or decoration. Subsequently, the minimum number of vessels/items (NMI) was calculated and studied together, within the framework of their context, stratigraphic, structural or the site itself. Based on the stratigraphic analysis and the periodization of the contexts, a typological classification proposal has been elaborated, using the most common reference classifications in the field of the study of glass in the roman world, such as of Clasina Isings (Isings 1957), and of the visigothic world, such as of Danielle Foy (Foy 1995), although taking into account other more specific typologies, such as the glass lamps of late antiquity in Egypt (Crowfoot & Harden 1936) or the glass lamps of northern Italy (Uboldi 1995). With this typology, elaborated on the basis of the studied stratigraphic contexts, the different tableware and glass objects of the late antiquity can be serialized. With them we have another type of material, which together with the ceramic, numismatic record and the 14C dating allow us to weigh the chronology of all the archaeological sites of this period and, in the same way, date much of the rural sites of late antiquity, where the director fossils present are only cooking wares and glass. Thus, with this thesis, all the vitreous productions of the late antiquity of Catalonia and Andorra are made known and structurally articulated, and with it other works can be initiated -more specific and defined- such as the archaeometric analysis of the glass vessels, and thus to deepen in the diffusion, the commerce and the presence of the glass crafts of this period in the Eastern Tarraconensis.

Abstract:
This quantitative study examined relationships of attending a new student orientation program related to student retention and academic success. A research group of 464 students of Tarrant County College Northwest, a community college campus in Fort Worth, Texas, who voluntarily attended a 2-hour pre-semester new student orientation program was compared to a group of 464 students on the same campus who did not attend the program. Comparisons were made with regard to retention and GPA. Ethnic ratios of both groups are 4% Black, 26% Hispanic, 66% White, and 4% other ethnicities. Chi square data analysis was utilized to determine if statistically significant differences relating to student retention existed between the groups. The independent t-test was used to compare means of calculated GPAs between groups. A one-way ANOVA was used to compare the means of GPAs for ethnic sub-groups. The total group and the Black sub-group showed statistically significant higher levels of second-semester retention (total group p = .018; Black sub-group p = .008) and higher calculated GPAs (total group p = .016; Black sub-group p = .019). No statistically significant results were found among Hispanic students.

Abstract:

Forest and fuel wood are fundamental as sources of energy in almost all developing economies. However there are a few empirical studies addressing the issue of fuelwood production and consumption for rural households. In this paper, household fuelwood use behavior is empirically assessed and policy implications are drawn. with specific reference to Nepal's tarai and mid-hills. Fuelwood production, supply and demand functions are estimated using market, forest and access, and demographic variables characteristic of each region. Both regional and district level supply and demand elasticities are also estimated with respect to opportunity cost of labor, fuelwood price, income, resource stock and access, and demographic variables. The results suggest that rural households produce and consume fuelwood according to the opportunity cost of their labor and market fuel wood prices. Market( economic) variables such as fuel wood price and opportunity costs of labor along with forest stock and its access can provide better insights for assessing household responsiveness to forestry and related development activities and for policy than mere resource stock size or its access.

Abstract:
In 2011, African Americans in Tarrant County, Texas experienced an infant mortality rate of 14.3 per 1,000 live births. The leading cause of infant mortality in Tarrant County is prematurity and maternal nutritional status. Both maternal under-nutrition and over-nutrition are known risk factors for premature birth. Improving maternal nutrition, by reducing rates of gestational diabetes and preeclampsia, and by increasing consumption of essential prenatal vitamins and nutrients, is a road to decreasing preterm birth in African Americans. This qualitative study, based on both anthropology and public health theory, of the nutrition behavior of a group of African American expectant mothers and the experience of their health care providers and co-facilitators had a goal to provide a foundation for future development of nutrition behavior research and education for this specific population. The main finding of this study was the substantial gap of lived experience and education between the patients and their providers and co-facilitators, which hinders delivery of care and the patients’ acquiescence to nutrition recommendations. The discrepancies between the authoritative knowledge of the providers and the bodily knowledge of expectant mothers were responsible for the ineffectiveness of nutrition recommendations.

Abstract:
Les orages sont des sources de phénomènes transitoires intenses, notamment lumineux, dans le domaine visible, mais également dans le domaine des rayons X et gamma. Ces phénomènes sont détectés sous la forme de flash de photons X et gamma appelés "Terrestrial Gamma Ray Flashes" (TGF). L'objet de cette thèse est le développement d'un modèle numérique pour étudier et comprendre les mécanismes associés aux TGF. L'étude des TGF est donc importante pour comprendre la physique des éclairs et des orages (qui sont des phénomènes très communs mais dont la microphysique reste encore très mal comprise) ainsi que le couplage entre l'atmosphère et l'ionosphère de la Terre. Cette thèse s'inscrit plus particulièrement dans le cadre de la préparation de la mission TARANIS du CNES, qui sera lancée en 2017. TARANIS disposera en particulier des instruments XGRE et IDEE, capables de caractériser les photons X/gamma et les électrons relativistes associés. Après son émission, vers 15 km d'altitude, le flux de rayons gamma du TGF est filtré et altéré par l'atmosphère, et une petite partie peut être détectée par un satellite en orbite basse. Cette dernière est constituée de photons primaires diffusés, ainsi que d'électrons, de positrons et de photons produits de manière secondaire. Une partie des leptons secondaires va pouvoir sortir de l'atmosphère et sera ensuite confinée par les lignes de champ géomagnétique. Ainsi, pouvoir établir des contraintes sur le mécanisme source des TGF à partir des observations est un problème inverse très complexe, qui ne peut être traité que par le développement d'un modèle de transport des particules énergétiques impliquées. Dans cette thèse, nous faisons dans un premier temps une synthèse des principaux travaux ayant été effectués concernant les observations et la modélisation associées aux TGF, depuis leur découverte, il y a environ 20 ans, jusqu'à nos jours. Dans un deuxième temps, nous présentons et justifions la validité du modèle MC-PEPTITA de transport des particules énergétiques concernées. Ce dernier utilise des méthodes Monte-Carlo, les jeux de sections efficaces EPDL et EEDL, des méthodes d'interaction similaires à celles présentées dans le code PENELOPE. De plus, des modèles extérieurs pour l'atmosphère (NRLMSISE-00) et pour le champ magnétique terrestre (IGRF-11) y sont intégrés. Le modèle collisionnel de MC-PEPTITA est ensuite validé par comparaison avec le code de référence GEANT4 du CERN. Une fois le modèle construit et validé, nous présentons et décomposons en détail la simulation d'un événement TGF typique pour en faire ressortir toute sa complexité. Finalement, nous procédons à des comparaisons directes entre le modèle et les données mesurées par le télescope spatial Fermi pour établir ou vérifier des propriétés importantes concernant les TGF et les faisceaux d'électrons et de positrons associés
Thunderstorms are sources of intense transient phenomena, including light in the visible range and also in X and gamma rays. These phenomena are detected in the form of photon flashes called "Terrestrial Gamma Ray Flashes" (TGF). The purpose of this thesis is the development of a numerical model to study and understand the mechanisms associated with TGF. Studying TGF is then important to understand the physics of lightning and thunderstorms (which are very common phenomena, but the micro-physics is still poorly understood), together with the coupling between the atmosphere and the ionosphere of the Earth. This thesis is also part of the preparation for the TARANIS mission from the CNES, which will be launched in 2017. Among others, TARANIS will have the XGRE and IDEE instruments, able to characterize X/gamma photons and the associated relativistic electrons. After its emission, at around 15 km altitude, this flux of gamma-rays are filtered and altered by the atmosphere and a small part of it may be detected by a satellite in low earth orbit. This last is made of scattered primary photons, together with secondary produced electrons and positrons. A part of these secondary can escape the atmosphere and will then be confined by geomagnetic field lines. Thus, trying to get information on the initial flux from the measurement is a very complex inverse problem, which can only be tackled by the use of a model solving the transport the involved high energy particles. In this thesis, we firstly make a synthesis of the main work that has been done concerning observations and modeling associated with TGF, since their discovery, around 20 years ago, until today. Secondly, we present and validate the MC-PEPTITA model for the transport of the involved energetic particles. It uses Monte-Carlo methods, the EPDL and EEDL cross-section sets, and the methods of simulation of the interactions are similar to what is presented for the PENELOPE code. Moreover, exterior models for the atmosphere (NRLMSISE-00) and the magnetic field of the Earth (IGRF-11) are also integrated. The collision model of MC-PEPTITA is then validated by comparison with the reference code GEANT4 from the CERN. Furthermore, its ability to reproduce precisely some real lightcurves observed by the Fermi space telescope helps to strengthen even more its validation. Once the model is built and validated, we present and decompose in detail the simulation of a typical TGF event, in order to bring out all its complexity. Finally, we conduct direct comparisons between the model and the data measured by the Fermi space telescope to establish or verify important properties concerning the TGF and the associated beams of electrons and positrons

Abstract:
Over 9 million new cases of tuberculosis (TB) were reported worldwide in 2013. While the TB rate is much lower in the US, its uneven distribution and associated explanatory variables require interrogation in order to determine effective strategies for intervention and control. However, paucity of case data at fine geographic scales precludes such research. This research, using zip code level data from 837 confirmed TB cases in Tarrant County obtained from Texas Department of State Health Services, explores and attempts to explain the spatial patterns of TB and related risk markers within a framework of place vulnerability. Readily available census data is then used to characterize the spatial variations in TB risk. The resulting model will enable estimations of the geographic differences in TB case variables using this readily available census data instead of time-consuming and expensive individual data collection.

A variação vocal é um dos processos que pode levar a especiação em aves. A divergência das características vocais pode levar ao isolamento reprodutivo, uma vez que indivíduos de uma mesma espécie não seriam capazes de reconhecer seus pares que emitam sinais vocais alterados. Sabendo-se que o ambiente exerce uma pressão seletiva importante na transmissão do som, os indivíduos tendem a alterar a estrutura acústica de suas vocalizações, aprimorando a transmissão sonora. Assim, indivíduos de uma mesma espécie que habitam ambientes distintos tendem a apresentar diferenças vocais. Este estudo analisou as vocalizações de T. major oriundas de diversas localidades da região Neotropical para identificar possíveis variações vocais entre as diversas subespécies. Estas variações foram correlacionadas com as coordenadas geográficas, com altitude e com a distribuição espacial das subespécies de T. major. Foram coletadas 119 vocalizações de indivíduos distintos, que tiveram as suas variáveis temporais e espectrais analisadas por meio do espectrograma e do espectro de amplitude, tomando um limite de -42 dB como referência. Tais características foram correlacionadas com as variáveis de latitude, longitude e altitude. Ao total, foram obtidas quatro subespécies. As variáveis foram reduzidas por uma análise de Componente Principal, e depois classificadas por uma Análise de Função Discriminante. A partir das correlações, observou-se uma relação inversa entre características espectrais e temporais. Valores de frequência decrescem com o aumento da latitude, enquanto os valores temporais aumentam. Do mesmo modo, os valores de frequência tendem a aumentar com o acréscimo da longitude, enquanto os valores temporais decrescem. Algo semelhante ocorre com os grupos atribuídos às subespécies, pois aquelas amostras que estão mais a Noroeste (T. m. semifasciatus e T. m. melanurus) apresentam menores frequências e maiores durações, enquanto aquelas que se situam mais a sudeste (T. m. major e T. m. stagurus) apresentam maiores frequências e menores durações. Este efeito pode estar vinculado às características do hábitat, pois as subespécies T. m. semifasciatus e T. m. melanurus estão situadas em regiões de predomínio da Floresta Ombrófila Densa da bacia Amazônica. Deste modo, vocalizações com menores valores de frequência e maiores valores de tempo sofrem menor atenuação sonora que seria causada pela alta densidade de obstáculos para a transmissão. Este tipo de variação vocal é bem documentado, sendo suportado pela Hipótese da Adaptação Acústica.
The vocal variation is one of the processes that can lead to speciation in birds. The divergence of the vocal features can drive the reproductive isolation, since individuals of the same species will not be able to recognize their mates, which emit altered voice signals. The environment make a significant selective pressure on sound transmission. Thus, individuals tend to change the acoustic structure of their vocalizations to improve the sound transmission. Individuals of the same species that inhabit different environments tend to display vocal differences. This study surveyed the vocalizations of T. major from several locations in the Neotropical region to identify possible vocal variations between different subspecies. These variations were correlated with the geographic coordinates, with altitude and with the spatial distribution of subspecies. We collected 119 vocalizations of different individuals. Vocalizations had their temporal and spectral variables measured through the espectrogram and the power spectrum, taking a -42 dB as reference limit. These variables were correlated with latitude, longitude and altitude. From these same data, we identified the predominant subspecies the location of sampling. In total, four subspecies were obtained. The variables were reduced by a principal component analysis. Then, they were classified by a discriminant function analysis. From the correlations, we found an inverse relationship between spectral and temporal characteristics. Frequency values decrease with increasing latitude, while time values increase. Moreover, the frequency values tend to increase with the increase in longitude, while time values decrease. Something similar occurs with the groups assigned to the subspecies, for the northwestern samples (attributed to T. m. semifasciatus and T. m. melanurus) have lower frequencies and longer durations, while the southeastern ones (attributed to T. m. major and T. m. stagurus) have higher frequencies and shorter durations. This effect is linked to habitat features, since the subspecies T. m. semifasciatus and T. m. melanurus are located predominantly in regions of dense rain forest of the Amazon basin. Thus, vocalizations with lower frequency values and greater time values suffer less sound attenuation caused by the high density of obstacles to transmission. This kind of vocal variation is well documented, and supported by the Acoustic Adaptation Hypothesis.

Abstract:
Questo elaborato analizza il folklore popolare, specialmente in ambito di musica e danza, osservando la diffusione di questo fenomeno da un punto di vista storico, culturale e sociale, studiando gli effetti che dall’incontro col turismo ne scaturiscono. La tradizione folcloristica che si rifà al fenomeno del Tarantismo è analizzata nel dettaglio, facendo riferimento ad una cultura popolare che diviene addirittura movimento di massa nell’emblematico caso della Notte della Taranta, un festival di costumi popolari capace di attirare centocinquantamila spettatori in un’unica notte, con una rilevanza tale da indentificarsi simbioticamente con il suo stesso territorio: il Salento. Si vedrà come tradizioni secolari e cultura siano in grado di fondersi sinergicamente in un evento capace di dettare l’identità stessa di un luogo, influenzandone i flussi turistici e i relativi effetti sociali ed economici. L‘inserimento culturale del festival nella tradizione popolare salentina è altresì oggetto d’analisi, con la quale è possibile evidenziare concordanze, contraddizioni, punti d’incontro e discrepanze tra le tradizioni popolari che si rifanno al Tarantismo e l’evento che di tali tradizioni si fa portabandiera.
