Web Page Retrieval by Combining Evidence

The participation of the REINA Research Group in WebCLEF 2005 focused in the monolingual mixed task. Queries or topics are of two types: named and home pages. For both, we first perform a search by thematic contents; for the same query, we do a search in several elements of information from every page (title, some meta tags, anchor text) and then we combine the results. For queries about home pages, we try to detect using a method based in some keywords and their patterns of use. After, a re-rank of the results of the thematic contents retrieval is performed, based on Page-Rank and Centrality coeficients

Experiencias en la utilización de metodologías no presenciales de aprendizaje en la impartición de la asignatura Informática aplicada a la traducción

The experience in the use of e-learning to teach an official university course was shown in the text. The degree of utilization of e-learning tools was pointed out, and also the effort of students and teachers to achieve the skills of them was analyzed. It allows us to evaluate if the formative activity of the students using such systems needs big efforts of adjustment. It is an element of important valuation that can be applied in the learning of the Translation and Interpretation studies adapted to the EEES system

Oblique basin inversion and strain partitioning in back-arc context: example from the Moroccan Alboran Margin (Western Mediterranean)

Morphological characterization of contourite and mass-wasting recent processes at the Guadalquivir Bank Margin uplift, Gulf of Cádiz

The Gulf of Cadiz records the interplay of a variety of sedimentary processes related to the circulation of water masses. The most important one is the Mediterranean Outflow Water (MOW) that exits the Mediterranean Sea, but other water masses also affect the seafloor, with complex variations along time and space. This work studies the interplay between oceanographic and gravitational sedimentary processes on the Guadalquivir Ridge, based on bathymetry and high-resolution seismic profiles. A series of morphological features including flat terraces, circular/elliptical depressions, semicircular scarps and valley-shaped features are analysed in order to better understand the interaction between water masses circulation and mass-wasting processes of the Gulf of Cadiz.Versión del edito

Late differentiation syndrome in acute promyelocytic leukemia: a challenging diagnosis

Detailed knowledge about differentiation syndrome (DS) has remained limited. There are 2 large studies conducted by the Spanish workgroup PETHEMA (Programa Español de Tratamientos en Hematología; Spanish Program on Hematology Treatments) and the European group trial (LPA 96-99 and APL 93) in which the incidence, characteristics, prognostic factors and outcome of patients developing DS are evaluated. Both have described the median time of DS development between 10 and 12 days. The severity of the DS has been evaluated in the study conducted by PETHEMA, and severe DS usually occurs at the beginning of the treatment (median of 6 days), as compared with moderate DS (median of 15 days). We report here in two cases of late severe DS, with late diagnosis due to both time and form of presentation. We discuss the physiopathology, clinical presentation, prophylaxis and treatment of DS

Interacción entre procesos sedimentarios longitudinales y transversales en el Mar de Alborán durante el Plioceno y Cuaternario

Several morphosedimentary signatures produced by the interaction between alongslope and downslope sedimentary processes have been identified in the Pliocene and Quaternary records as well as on the present-day seafloor of the Alboran Sea. The scenarios of interaction move between two-end-members: from bottom currents dominating gravity flows to gravity flows dominating contour currents. In between these extreme cases, the alternation and balancing of both processes can occur; bottom current activity influencing the gravity flows has been also detected. Although interaction occurs in the Spanish and Moroccan margins, it is especially complex and varied on the Spanish margin, with regional and local effects on the turbidite systems. In contrast, the interaction on the Moroccan margin primarily inhibits the formation of canyons and related fan lobe deposits.Versión del edito

Modelización de los end-members para reconocer fuentes de aporte sedimentario en contornitas: un caso de estudio en el Mar de Alborán

Contourite drifts are one the main morphosedimentary features in the Alboran Sea and their sediments are important archives of the past oceanographic conditions and sedimentary processes. The end-member modelling approach lets to decompose multimodal grain-size distribution into genetically meaningful subpopulation that may be related to different sediment transport mechanisms and source areas. Three end-members have been identified in the contourite drift and moat system located at the southern side of the Dijbouti Ville seamount that have been interpreted in terms of sediment sources. Two end-members point to an eolian source and comprise fine silt (EM1) and coarse silt (EM2) as modal grain-sizes, characterized by high and low contents, respectively, of terrigenous elements (Al, Si, Ti and K). The third end-member (EM3) indicates a fluvial origin and is mainly defined by a clay modal grain-size of intermediate and homogeneous content in terrigenous elements. Downcore variation of the relative proportion of these EMs can be used to decipher paleocenographic and paleoclimatic conditions in the Alboran Sea.Versión del edito

Detailed analysis of the interaction between alongslope and downslope sedimentary processes in the Alboran Sea during the Pliocene and Quaternary

This work aims to analyze the interaction between alongslope contouritic and downslope gravitational processes in the Alboran Sea. Recent results (Juan et al., 2012, 2016) demonstrated that the Pliocene and Quaternary stratigraphic architecture is mostly made up the vertical stacking of contourites interrupted by turbidite systems (TSs). The accurate analysis of all available seismic profiles has revealed several morpho-sedimentary signatures produced by the interaction of the Atlantic Water (AW) and Mediterranean waters (MWs) with the gravity flows in the Pliocene and Quaternary sedimentary record, as well as on the present-day seafloor. Different levels of interaction have been identified and they move between two-end-members: from bottom currents dominating gravity flows, to gravity flows dominating bottom currents. In between these extreme cases, a range of possibilities can occur. First, downslope and alongslope processes can alternate, with vertical and cyclic stacking of both types of deposit. Second, these processes can be balanced, allowing the simultaneous outbuilding of contourites and gravity flow deposits. Last, bottom currents can influence gravity flows. This last interaction is the most common in the Alboran Sea, resulting in the migration of the fan deposits in the direction of the dominant current, and also with effects on the architecture of the turbidite fans, and on their sedimentary composition (grain size). The different levels of interaction change in space and time. These changes have controlled the different depositional architecture displayed by the Spanish and Moroccan margins and the lateral changes along the Spanish margin as a consequence of the different architecture of the turbidite systems. Although interaction occurs in both margins, it is especially complex and varied on the Spanish margin, where the alongslope action is related to the AW, the light intermediate and the dense deep Mediterranean waters (LMw and DMw, respectively). This complex interaction has resulted in a depositional architecture that changes laterally as a consequence of the different architecture of the turbidite systems. Contrasting, on the Moroccan margin the alonsglope action is dominant, being mainly governed by the energy of the AW and the WMDW, that primarily inhibits the formation of canyons and related fan lobe deposits. This inhibition has been interpreted to be result of the topographical acceleration of the WMDW core that would favour an intense alongslope sediment transport, preventing deposition, avoiding the convergence of sediment, and thus inhibiting the formation of downslope gravity flows
