Improving ocean-glider's payload with a new generation of spectrophotometric PH sensor
Ocean gliders have clearly become nowadays useful autonomous
platforms addressed to measure a wide range of seawater parameters in a more
sustainable and efficient way. This new ocean monitoring approach has implied
the need to develop smaller, faster and more efficient sensors without reducing key
features like accuracy, resolution, time-response, among others, in order to fit the
glider operational capabilities. This work is aiming to present the latest development
stages of a new spectrophotometric pH sensor, its integration process into a Wave
Glider SV3 platform and the preliminary results derived from an offshore mission
performed in subtropical waters between the Canary Islands and Cape Verde
archipelagos.Peer Reviewe
ESTUDIO INTERDISCIPLINAR DE LA TUMBA AV DEL ASENTAMIENTO NEOLĂTICO DE LA ESPARRAGOSA (CHICLANA DE LA FRONTERA, CĂDIZ, ESPAĂA) (Interdisciplinary Study of the Tomb AV from the Neolithic Settlement of La Esparragosa (Chiclana de la Frontera, Cadiz, Spain))
El yacimiento de La Esparragosa se encuentra ubicado en la provincia de CĂĄdiz (España), en plena orilla norte del Estrecho de Gibraltar. La tumba que nos ocupa constituye un caso excepcional para la denominada «cultura de los silos», ya que se ha podido documentar en este enterramiento en fosa la existencia de un individuo cubierto por una capa de 477 ejemplares de Ruditapes decussatus (almeja fina). Presentamos un avance del estudio interdisciplinar con dataciones de 14C AMS (una de las cuales es inĂ©dita) y TL, antropologĂa fĂsica, arqueozoologĂa, funcionalidad y anĂĄlisis polĂnico. Estos estudios ponen de relieve la importancia que desempeñó el medio marino para esta comunidad tanto a nivel econĂłmico como a nivel ideolĂłgico. ENGLISH: The archaeological site of La Esparragosa is located in the province of Cadiz, Spain, on the northern shore of the Strait of Gibraltar. The tomb under consideration is an exceptional example, within the context of the so-called âSilos Fields cultureâ. Excavations have attested a burial pit for one individual, who was found covered by a layer of Ruditapes decussatus (clam) (477 specimens in total). This article presents the first results of the multidisciplinary studies carried out on this burial, including 14C AMS and TL datings, physical anthropology studies and archaeozoological, archaeometrical, use-wear and pollen analysis. These studies highlight the importance of marine resources for this community, both in economic and ideological terms
