Observatory of sustainability in aviation. A contribution to Sustainable Development
El proyecto de creación del Observatorio de la Sostenibilidad en Aviación (OBSA) tiene como misión poner en funcionamiento un centro de referencia nacional para recopilar, analizar, evaluar y difundir la mejor información disponible sobre aviación y sostenibilidad, considerando sus tres
dimensiones: social, económica y ambiental.
Sus Objetivos son:
·Generar una herramienta útil para los procesos de toma de decisiones y de participación pública a través de la difusión de dicha información y de su evolución mediante el uso de indicadores.
·Constituir un instrumento de difusión de buenas prácticas, y de estímulo de las iniciativas en el sector de la aviación que permitan su crecimiento de forma sostenible.
·Establecer un foro de encuentro entre los reguladores, industria y sociedad, y una plataforma de comunicación al servicio de estos agentes.
Para alcanzarlos, el Observatorio cuenta con la participación de los principales agentes del sector para fomentar la colaboración y compartir información y capacidadesThe aim of the Observatory of Sustainability in Aviation is to be a reference point on aviation and sustainability, for rigorous compilation, elaboration, analysis, evaluation and diffusion of the existing basic information on sustainability in the sector, considering the social, economic and
environmental dimensions.
The goals are:
·To generate a useful tool for public participation and decision making through the evaluation of this information, using models and indicators.
·To encourage initiatives in the aviation sector enhancing its sustainable growth.
·To establish a communication forum between stakeholders (regulators, industry and society).
·To share knowledge and best practices with other national and international organizations.
To achieve these goals the Observatory is establishing partnership with Spanish and international aviation stakeholders to foster cooperation, share information and best available knowledgePeer Reviewe

Gravitational Lensing and the Power Spectrum of Dark Matter Substructure: Insights from the ETHOS N-body Simulations
Strong gravitational lensing has been identified as a promising astrophysical
probe to study the particle nature of dark matter. In this paper we present a
detailed study of the power spectrum of the projected mass density
(convergence) field of substructure in a Milky Way-sized halo. This power
spectrum has been suggested as a key observable that can be extracted from
strongly lensed images and yield important clues about the matter distribution
within the lens galaxy. We use two different -body simulations from the
ETHOS framework: one with cold dark matter and another with self-interacting
dark matter and a cutoff in the initial power spectrum. Despite earlier works
that identified kpc as the most promising scales to
learn about the particle nature of dark matter we find that even at lower
wavenumbers - which are actually within reach of observations in the near
future - we can gain important information about dark matter. Comparing the
amplitude and slope of the power spectrum on scales kpc from lenses at different redshifts can help us distinguish between
cold dark matter and other exotic dark matter scenarios that alter the
abundance and central densities of subhalos. Furthermore, by considering the
contribution of different mass bins to the power spectrum we find that subhalos
in the mass range M are on average the largest
contributors to the power spectrum signal on scales kpc, despite the numerous subhalos with masses M in
a typical lens galaxy. Finally, by comparing the power spectra obtained from
the subhalo catalogs to those from the particle data in the simulation
snapshots we find that the seemingly-too-simple halo model is in fact a fairly
good approximation to the much more complex array of substructure in the lens.Comment: 13 pages + appendices, 7 figure
To teach research we must begin by investigating: an experience in teacher education
Se describe una experiencia en formación inicial de maestros que parte de la propia
actividad investigadora del alumno como oportunidad para la reflexión sobre nuestro
propio proceso de aprendizaje, para proseguir con la reflexión sobre distintas
experiencias de investigación globalizada del medio y con el aporte de referentes
teóricos, y culminar con el diseño de una propuesta didáctica para el alumnado de
Educación Infantil.This paper describes an experience in teacher education that starts on the student's own
research activities as an opportunity for reflection on our own learning process; the
experience follows with a reflection on different experiences of global environmental
research and the contribution of theoretical references, and culminates in the design of a
didactic proposal for kindergarten students
