Caracterización de las técnicas reproductivas a nivel de vivero de especies arbóreas en el jardín botánico y vivero Santa Elena, Managua, 2014

El presente estudio fue realizado en El Jardín Botánico y Vivero Santa Elena, ubicado en el departamento de Managua en el Kilómetro 14 carretera norte Managua-Tipitapa. Surgió como producto de la coordinación entre La Facultad de Recursos Naturales y del Ambiente (FARENA) de la Universidad Nacional Agraria (UNA)y la se cretaría del centro de propagación de plantas Jardín Botánico y Vivero Santa Elena. El objetivo principal del mismo es la caracterización de las técnicas reproductivas a nivel de vivero que se utilizan para especies arbóreas. La metodología consistió en: (1) aplicación de entrevista dirigida a informantes claves preseleccionados (directora, coordinador del vivero y responsable del área forestal); (2) implementación de la técnica de observación de campo; (3)levantamiento de datos mediante formato pre definido; y (4) cotejo de la información con otras fuentes bibliográficas. Se identificó un total de 31 especies forestales distribuidas en 16 familias botánicas y 27 géneros. Entre las familias más representativas se encuentran: Caesalpiniaceae, Bignoniaceae y Mimosaceae con 4 especies cada una y menor a 3 especies resultó Meliaceae, Fabaceae, Combretaceae, Bombacaceae, Malvaceae y Boraginaceae. La técnica que más seutiliza es la sexual con un 96.77% y en menor proporción se implementa la técnica asexual con 3.23%; 51.61% de las especies son exóticas y el 48.39% son nativas; se utiliza como sustrato abono orgánico que incluye cascarilla de arroz, aserrín y tierra común; y el tratamiento pre germinativo más común se basas en la escarificación mecánica e inmersión en agua, que varía según la especie

Local flavour vs global audiences: Elena Ferrante and translatability

Through an analysis of the novels written under the pen name ElenaFerrante and of the paratextual elements that surround them, thisarticle examines the portrayal of Naples and its outskirts in thesenarratives, and how the specific geographical and cultural context isrendered and variously translated for different audiences. It arguesthat the concealment of the author’s identity has enhanced theperceived authenticity of the texts, and that the emphasis onmarginal backgrounds and subaltern characters entails a contradictionnot dissimilar to the phenomenon that Huggan (2001) describesas‘staged marginality’in the context of postcolonial narratives.Ferrante’s cultural specificity can therefore be read as a highlyambivalent discourse that entails both resistance and adherenceto the mechanisms of a global market. Lastly, the article examineshow the emphasis on dialect influences the process of translationfor diverse readerships, showing the relevance of the‘Ferranteproject’within world literature debates

Metaplectic representation on Wiener amalgam spaces and applications to the Schr\"odinger equation

We study the action of metaplectic operators on Wiener amalgam spaces, giving upper bounds for their norms. As an application, we obtain new fixed-time estimates in these spaces for Schr\"odinger equations with general quadratic Hamiltonians and Strichartz estimates for the Schr\"odinger equation with potentials $V(x)=\pm|x|^2$

Passivity-preserving splitting methods for rigid body systems

A rigid body model for the dynamics of a marine vessel, used in simulations of offshore pipe-lay operations, gives rise to a set of ordinary differential equations with controls. The system is input-output passive. We propose passivity-preserving splitting methods for the numerical solution of a class of problems which includes this system as a special case. We prove the passivity-preservation property for the splitting methods, and we investigate stability and energy behaviour in numerical experiments. Implementation is discussed in detail for a special case where the splitting gives rise to the subsequent integration of two completely integrable flows. The equations for the attitude are reformulated on $SO(3)$ using rotation matrices rather than local parametrizations with Euler angles.Comment: 27 pages, 4 figures.
