La importancia de la salud en Educación Primaria: propuestas motrices lúdicas

[SPA] La importancia de la creación hábitos saludables en edades tempranas es cada vez más necesaria en la sociedad, dado que es uno de los factores que puede prevenir diferentes enfermedades, así como mejorar la calidad de vida. La promoción de dichos hábitos debe tener un papel fundamental en los colegios, especialmente desde la asignatura de Educación Física. Para la consecución de dicha finalidad, el maestro puede emplear tareas motrices basadas en situaciones lúdicas. El objetivo de este trabajo de innovación fue diseñar una serie de propuestas de situaciones motrices lúdicas para incentivar la creación de hábitos saludables, y mejorar el conocimiento y desarrollo del sistema cardio-respiratorio, entre otros. De esta forma, empleando dichas propuestas, el maestro podrá promocionar la práctica de actividad física de forma regular en sus alumnos y favorecer la asociación positiva del alumnado hacia la práctica físico-deportiva.[ENG] There is increasing concern in society about the rising obesity epidemic and lack of physical activity among children and adolescents. Promoting early healthy habits can be the most effective way to prevent several diseases and improve the health of people and their quality of life. The promotion of these habits can and should play a pivotal role in schools, especially in Physical Education classes. To achieve this purpose, the teacher may use various simple and routine tools as recreational motor activities, and also may motivate pupils to improve the results. The aim of this work was to propose recreational motor activities to create healthy habits, and to improve and develop the knowledge of the cardiovascular system and the cardiorespiratory system, among others. Thus, using these proposals, the teacher can promote regular physical activity and to get that students have a positive view of physical and sport practice

Comparative study of tig and smaw root welding passes on ductile iron cast weldability

[EN] This work compares the weldability of ductile iron when: (I) a root weld is applied with a tungsten inert gas (TIG) process using an Inconel 625 source rod and filler welds are subsequently applied using coated electrodes with 97,6 %Ni; and (II) welds on ductile iron exclusively made using the manual shielded metal arc welding technique (SMAW). Both types of welds are performed on ductile iron specimen test plates that are subjected to preheat and post-weld annealing treatments. Samples with TIG root-welding pass shown higher hardness but slightly lower ductility and strength. Both types of welding achieved better ductile and strength properties than ones found in literature.Cárcel Carrasco, FJ.; Pascual Guillamón, M.; Pérez Puig, MA.; Segovia-López, F. (2017).

The Evidence based Learning Outcomes. The Cosmet project

[EN] Learning and training are key aspects in the evolution of societies. In the case of professional activities, the 21st century must take into account those professions which require knowledge and skills upgrading to new technological advances, such as intelligent buildings measurements for construction managers and supervisors as well as other professionals who act in different building facilities. The Evidence based Learning Outcomes, is to develop smart metering learning outcomes which reflect building sector needs and which can be integrated into existing Vocational Education Training (VET) offerings for construction site managers. These evidence based learning outcomes will address the skills needs of site managers in smart metering technologies and services, delivering a European¿wide comprehensive pedagogical structure. This article explains the collection and analysis of sector and VET evidence on the current and future smart metering site manager skills and training needs (covering power, gas, heat and water meters) in the six partnership countries.This work has been conducted within the framework of the research project COSMET "Training in Smart Meters for Construction Site Managers" funded by the European Commission within the Key Action 2: Strategic Partnerships in VET, reference number 2015-1-UK01- KA202-013406.Cárcel Carrasco, FJ.; Peñalvo-López, E.; Valcuende Payá, MO.; Pascual Guillamón, M.

Melon Genome Regions Associated with TGR-1551-Derived Resistance to Cucurbit yellow stunting disorder virus

[EN] Cucurbit yellow stunting disorder virus(CYSDV) is one of the main limiting factors of melon cultivation worldwide. To date, no commercial melon cultivars resistant to CYSDV are available. The African accession TGR-1551 is resistant to CYSDV. Two major quantitative trait loci (QTLs) have been previously reported, both located near each other in chromosome 5. With the objective of further mapping the gene or genes responsible of the resistance, a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived from the cross between TGR-1551 and the susceptible cultivar 'Bola de Oro' was evaluated for resistance to CYSDV in five different assays and genotyped in a genotyping by sequencing (GBS) analysis. The major effect of one of the two QTLs located on chromosome 5 was confirmed in the multienvironment RIL assay and additionally verified through the analysis of three segregating BC(1)S(1)populations derived from three resistant RILs. Furthermore, progeny test using the offspring of selected BC(3)plants allowed the narrowing of the candidate interval to a 700 kb region. The SNP markers identified in this work will be useful in marker-assisted selection in the context of introgression of CYSDV resistance in elite cultivars.This research was funded by the Spanish Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovacion y Universidades, grant number AGL2017-85563-C2 (1-R and 2-R), and by the Conselleria d'Educacio, Investigacio, Cultura i Esports de la Generalitat Valenciana, grant number PROMETEO/2017/078 (to promote excellence groups, cofinanced with FEDER funds).

Improvement of the energy efficiency of your office

[EN] Currently, energy efficiency goes beyond technological aspects, involving social actions and people awareness. Proven feedback techniques based on reliable measuring at home, combined with price policies have demonstrated the feasibility of cutting down consumption up to 25% while maintaining high levels of comfort [1]. The Energy Technological Institute and Institute of Biomechanics of Valencia have studied the effect of providing real-time feedback implemented in a PC by means of pop-ups messages and information in offices. The designed system tries to integrate the previously identified key aspects for energy consumption reduction and the comfort criteria for lighting and air conditioning.[ES] Hasta hace poco, la eficiencia energética se consideraba fundamentalmente como una cuestión tecnológica: utilizar la mejor tecnología para consumir menos energía, ya sea por parte del proveedor o por el consumidor. Pero la política energética abarca hoy en día cada vez más y mayores acciones sociales: de poco sirven las nuevas tecnologías si el usuario no está convencido de su utilización. Una cada vez mayor concienciación de los beneficios derivados del ahorro de energía, tanto para el individuo como para la sociedad, debe ser el factor determinante para el cambio del comportamiento del consumidor. Se ha demostrado que técnicas de retroalimentación combinadas con tarifas económicas basadas en medidas del consumo energético en el hogar son viables para reducir el consumo casi en un 25%, manteniendo las condiciones de confort [1]. El Instituto Tecnológico de la Energía (ITE) y el Instituto de Biomecánica (IBV) han estudiado el efecto de la retroalimentación en tiempo real sobre su consumo energético mediante una aplicación instalada en el ordenador del usuario que integra los aspectos identificados como claves en la reducción del consumo energético y los criterios de confort del ambiente térmico y lumínico.Proyecto financiado por el Instituto de Pequeña y Medaina Empresa de Valencia (IMPIVA) y fondos FEDER, dentro del Programa Operativo FEDER de la Comunitat Valenciana 2007-2013.

Origin and driving mechanisms of marine litter in the shelf-incised Motril, Carchuna, and Calahonda canyons (northern Alboran Sea)

Introduction and methodsMarine litter density, distribution and potential sources, and the impact on canyon seafloor habitats were investigated in the Motril, Carchuna and Calahonda canyons, located along the northern margin of the Alboran Sea. During the ALSSOMAR-S2S oceanographic survey carried out in 2019, canyon floor imagery was collected by a Remotely Operated Vehicle along 5 km in the Motril Canyon, 10 km in the Carchuna Canyon, and 3 km in Calahonda Canyon, together with 41 surficial sediment samples. Additionally, coastal uses, maritime traffic and fishing activity data were analyzed. A 50 m resolution multibeam bathymetry served as base map. ResultsIn the Motril and Calahonda canyons, the density of marine litter was low and the material was dispersed, very degraded and partially buried. In contrast, the Carchuna Canyon contained a greater amount and variety of litter. The Carchuna Canyon thalweg exhibited a density of marine litter up to 8.66 items center dot 100 m(-1), and litter hotspots with a density of up to 42 items center dot m(2) are found along the upper reaches of the canyon thalweg. DiscussionLow litter abundances found in the studied canyons most likely reflect low population densities and the absence of direct connections with streams in the nearby coasts. The high shelf incision of the Carchuna Canyon and its proximity to the coastline favor littoral sediment remobilization and capture as well as the formation of gravity flows that transport the marine litter along the thalweg toward the distal termination of the channel. Litter hotspots are favored by the canyon morphology and the occurrence of rocky outcrops. Most debris is of coastal origin and related to beach occupation and agricultural practices in the adjacent coastal plain. A third origin was represented by fishing gear in the study area. Fishing activity may be producing an impact through physical damage to the skeletons of the colonial scleractinians located in the walls of the Carchuna Canyon. In contrast, the Motril and Calahonda canyons can be considered passive systems that have mainly acted as depositional sinks in the recent past, as evidenced by buried marine litter.18-ESMARES2-CIRCA project of the Instituto Español de Oceanografıa; DL57/2016/CP1361/CT0009info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Underwater imagery-study of sediment and fauna for habitat characterization in mud volcanoes of the Spanish margin (Gulf of Cádiz)

Habitat characterization using underwater images has been carried out in 4 mud volcanoes (Gazul, Almazán, St. Petersburg and Aveiro) and one mud volcano/diapir complex (Hespérides) located at the middle slope of the Spanish margin of the Gulf of Cádiz (360-1200m depth). A total of 126 species, mostly cnidarians, sponges, brachiopods, crustaceans and echinoderms and 19 habitats have been observed in the underwater images, including anoxic bottoms with cold seep fauna or remains (Siboglinum sp., Lucinoma asapheus, Solemya elarraichensis), bottoms with authigenic carbonates colonized by gorgonians and anthipatharians, extensive muddy bottoms with sea pens (Kophobelemnon sp., Protoptilum sp.) and bamboo corals (Isidella elongata) and cold-water coral banks (Madrepora oculata). Habitat type and distribution seem influenced by sedimentary features, presence of hard substrates with authigenic carbonates, seepage activity, depth and hydrodynamic conditions. Cold seep related species and heterotrophic species not directly linked to fluid venting represent seepage activity indicators and induce habitat and biodiversity differentiation among the fluid venting edifices

Seafloor environments on Madrid and El Cid mud volcanoes (Moroccan continental margin of the Gulf of Cádiz)

Simposio sobre el Margen Ibérico Atlántico (9º. 2018. Coimbra, Portugal)More than 70 mud volcanoes (MVs) are identified along the continental margin of the Gulf of Cadiz,,although only a few have been thoroughly sampled and direct observed. This work is a contribution to the knowledge of the Gulf of Cadiz MVs Madrid and El Cid, located in the continental slope known as Western Moroccan Field over 1300 m water depth. On Madrid MV extensive crusts and mud breccia were observed. Nevertheless in El Cid MV, the rocky fragments are of smaller size and mud breccia has not been sampled/observed on the surface. In both MVs, coral reefs colonizing rocky fragments and covering seafloor of metric size have been observed.Departamento de Ciencias de la Tierrra, Universidad de Cádiz, EspañaCentro Oceanográfico de Málaga, Instituto Español de Oceanografía, EspañaCentro oceanográfico de Cádiz, Instituto Español de Oceanografía, EspañaInstituto Geológico y Minero de España, EspañaEstrutura de Missão para a Extensão da Plataforma Continental, Portuga

Scientific and Technical Report of the DRAGO 0511 Oceanographic Cruise. Extension of the Spanish Continental Shelf west off Canary Island

Informe científico de la campaña y de los resultados preliminaresLa campaña DRAGO 0511 forma parte de los trabajos para la extensión de la plataforma continental española al oeste de las islas Canarias conforme a la Convención de Naciones Unidas sobre Derecho del Mar (CONVEMAR). Han participado un total de 19 científicos y técnicos, 4 investigadores del Instituto Español de Oceanografía (IEO) y 4 investigadores del Instituto Geológico y Minero de España (IGME) del Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación, 2 investigadores de TRAGSA (para la Secretaría General del Mar) del Ministerio de Medio Ambiente, Medio Rural y Marino, y 6 hidrógrafos del Instituto Hidrográfico de la Marina (IHM) del Ministerio de Defensa, así como 5 estudiantes (2 de grado y 3 de postgrado) de la Facultad de Ciencias del Mar y Ambientales de la Universidad de Cádiz, y de la Facultad de Ciencias Geológicas (Titulación de Ingeniería Geológica) de la Universidad Complutense. El objetivo de esta campaña es la adquisición de los datos científicos necesarios para preparar la propuesta de ampliación de la plataforma continental española más allá de las 200 millas marinas del área situada al oeste de las Islas Canarias, conforme al artículo 76 de CONVEMAR. La información que se ha obtenido es fundamentalmente de batimetría multihaz y monohaz, perfiles de la velocidad del sonido, perfiles sísmicos de alta resolución, y muestreo de fondos principalmente mediante dragas de roca. Estos datos permitirán definir desde un punto de vista morfográfico, morfosedimentario y geológico, la región de la base del talud, así como llevar a cabo la localización de los posibles pies de talud (FOS) en esta región,y demostrar la estrecha relación existente entre la zona estudiada y el archipiélago de las Islas Canarias. En este sentido se han estudiado de forma preferente un conjunto de montes submarinos presentes al suroeste de las islas Canarias cuya génesis, de origen magmático, se debe encontrar en los mismos procesos de “punto caliente” que probablemente han debido generar los edificios volcánicos que constituyen las propias islas Canarias. Por otro lado, se ha localizado la presencia de grandes cuerpos sedimentarios constituidos por materiales procedentes de estos montes submarinos y generados por movimientos en masa de tipo gravitacional a favor de la pendiente del talud continental. La presencia tanto de estos montes submarinos, como de las grandes masas de sedimentos gravitacionales y, además la localización de escarpes en el talud, serán puntos clave de gran interés en esta región, siendo argumentos científicos válidos para demostrar la prolongación natural del territorio emergido del archipiélago canario así como para localizar los puntos del pie del talud continental. Durante la campaña DRAGO 0511 se han adquirido un total de 10895.4 km de registros con sonda multihaz EM302, sonda monohaz EA 600 y sonda paramétrica TOPAS PS 18. De dichas líneas, 9647.3 km se han realizado en las dos zonas de trabajo planificadas, 5603.2 km en la zona A y 4044.3 km en la zona B. En la zona A se ha cubierto un área total de 19996 km2 mientras que en la zona B la extensión ha sido de 13545 km2. En total se ha cubierto una extensión de 17795 km2 en el área de posible ampliación de la plataforma continental española. Por otra parte, cabe señalar que además 16471 km2 de líneas se han realizado dentro de la ZEE española del archipiélago canario, que se utilizarán, en algún caso, para demostrar la continuidad de estos cuerpos sedimentarios con las islas Canarias, y más adelante para la cartografía de este sector de la ZEE española. El resto de registros, 1151.5 km. corresponden a los tránsitos. En el total del tiempo de la campaña DRAGO 0511, un 70.5 % se ha trabajado sobre las zonas planificadas A y B localizadas sobre las áreas de ampliación de la plataforma continental española o sobre puntos concretos de la ZEE española que pueden ser utilizados para establecer los FOS, un 16.7 % en tránsitos sobre la ZEE española de las islas Canarias y un 7.1% de recalada en los puertos de Santa Cruz de Tenerife y de La Estaca de la Iila de El Hierro. Los datos obtenidos en la campaña DRAGO 0511 serán usados para elaborar la presentación del trazado del límite exterior de la plataforma continental de España más allá de las 200 millas marinas en el polígono del archipiélago de las islas Canarias conforme a la parte VI y el anexo II de CONVEMAR. Dicha presentación de datos e información científica se deberá realizar ante la Comisión de límites de la plataforma continental de la Organización de las Naciones Unidas en Nueva York, de conformidad con la CONVEMAR y con las directrices científico-técnicas de dicha Comisión, con anterioridad al 9 de mayo del año 2014.Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores y Cooperación (MAEC), Instituto Español de Oceanografía (IEO) e Instituto Geológico y Minero de España (IGME) ambos del Ministerio de Investigación, Ciencia e Industria (MICINN), Instituo Hidrográfico de la Marina (IHM) del Ministerio de Defensa (MDEF) y Secretaria General del Mar del Ministerio de Medio Ambiente, Medio Rural y Marino (MARM).
