Peer review report 1 on âBi-decadal Groundwater Level Trends in a Semi-arid South Indian Region: Declines, Causes and Managementâ
TOGETHER AT HOME. Coronavirus Days invites readers to learn to live under lockdown and subsequent lifting of the lockdown and act as heroes, helping to prevent the pandemic from spreading. As Agus says: “each of us was in our own home but we were all in the same boat”
¡Juntos en casa! Los dĂas del coronavirus
Este libro solidario de Agus y los monstruos es un libro muy especial que ha surgido en un contexto excepcional. Se trata de una novela gráfica breve, en formato digital, resultado del momento actual y que tiene un objetivo muy sencillo y complejo a la vez: ofrecer a los niños y niñas una reflexión serena sobre la situación que estamos viviendo como consecuencia de la pandemia de la Covid-19.
¡JUNTOS EN CASA! Los dĂas del coronavirus invita a los protagonistas de la serie (Agus, Lidia y los monstruos) y a sus lectores a aprender a vivir en el confinamiento y el desconfinamiento, y a actuar como hĂ©roes ayudando a evitar que la pandemia siga avanzando. En definitiva, en palabras del protagonista, Agus Pianola: «cada uno está en su casa, pero todos vamos en el mismo barco»
Palaeoenvironmental and palaeoseismic implications of a 3700-year sedimentary record from proglacial Lake Barrancs (Maladeta Massif, Central Pyrenees, Spain)
11 páginas, 5 figuras, 2 tablas.A multidisciplinary study including sedimentological, mineral magnetic, and palaeobotanical techniques applied to a sediment core recovered from proglacial Lake Barrancs in the seismically active Maladeta Massif has provided the basis for documenting environmental changes and palaeoseismic activity in the Central Pyrenees for the last ca. 3700 yr. Lake Barrancs is located downstream of the Tempestats and Barrancs cirque glaciers and sedimentation is dominated by clastic input corresponding to seasonal changes in sediment supply. Slow fine particle settling during the winter and sediment-loaded homopycnal flows during the warm season, triggered by snow-melting and glacier outwash, have resulted in deposition of rhythmites composed of clays, silts, and sands. The predominance of finer-grained sediments and the low concentration of relatively finer magnetite grains suggest that glacier activity was very small, if not absent, before ca. A.D. 350. Their replacement by coarser-grained sediments and the overall increased (but highly oscillating) concentrations of relatively coarser magnetite grains in the uppermost 4.3 m of the record suggest the onset of glacial activity and enhanced snow-melting in the catchment of Lake Barrancs after A.D. 350. We suggest that this onset of glacial and enhanced snow-melt activity was driven by a complex balance between winter precipitation and annual mean temperatures, among other climatic variables. Peat layers suggest two dramatic lake-level drops at A.D. 300 and A.D. 450, when Lake Barrancs was drained. The mechanisms for such extreme hydrological events are not clear. Changes in the precipitation/evaporation ratio cannot account for such desiccation events. Dam failure is unlikely since there are no geomorphological evidence of breaching processes. Geomorphological and structural evidence demonstrates active faulting since formation of Lake Barrancs and reactivation during earthquake shaking. Based on this, we propose an alternative explanation for the desiccation events that involves the draining of the lake through pre-existing fractures opened by earthquakes. Further studies in Lake Barrancs and other lakes from the Maladeta massif are necessary to validate the hypotheses presented here concerning the response of glacial and snow-melt activity to climate variability and the palaeoseismic record of the Central Pyrenees.This research was supported by projects
