Coping with Changes: Social and Economic Developments at Coppa Nevigata during the 12th Century BC. Orea|Punta di Zambrone I Oriental and European Archaeology Volume 17|
The fortified settlement of Coppa Nevigata was mostly devoted to transmarine and overland exchange throughout the whole Bronze Age. Craft activities, such as the production of purple dye, were developed early at the site, possibly in relation with these external trades. Wider transformations in the Late Bronze Age Mediterranean scenario impacted on the Adriatic networks, yet Coppa Nevigata maintained an active role in the local and transmarine trades. During the Recent Bronze Age, particularly in the 12th century BC, the site experienced major changes concerning both the settlement’s plan and the rise of specialised craft production, such as the flourishing of the locally based production of Aegean–Mycenaean-type pottery. These changes were doubtless related to deep socio-economic transformations of the resident community. Evidence from the extensive excavations at the site points to the emergence of an elite in this period, which was possibly responsible for the reshaping of the settlement’s organisation
Comparing the Applicability of Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 for Mapping the Evolution of Ice-marginal Lakes in Southeast Iceland. GI_Forum|GI_Forum 2021, Volume 1|
Monitoring ice-marginal lakes is important for glaciological and geomorphological studies, as well as hazard and risk assessment. Sentinel-1 synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and Sentinel-2 optical data opened a new era for multi-temporal analysis and studying geomorphological changes. The purpose of this study is to compare the applicability of Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 data for mapping the changes in ice-marginal lake areas at the southern margin of the Vatnajökull ice cap, southeast Iceland, between 2016 and 2020. We semi-automatically mapped the ice-marginal lakes with object-based image analysis (OBIA) and based on image time series using 1) the polarization products derived from Sentinel-1 data, and 2) the spectral information of Sentinel-2 data, and compared the results. Our results show that Sentinel-1 performed better regarding the detection of the number of ice-marginal lakes, whereas Sentinel-2 performed better regarding lake delineation. Moreover, we discuss the applicability of optical and SAR data for mapping and monitoring the evolution of ice-marginal lakes
Simulating Family Life Courses: An Application for Italy, Great Britain, and Scandinavia
Family patterns in Western countries have substantially changed across the 1940 to 1990 birth cohorts. Adults born more recently enter more often unmarried cohabitations and marry later, if at all. They have children later and fewer of them; births take place in a non-marital union more often and, due to the declining stability of couple relationships, in more than one partnership. These changes have led to an increasing diversity in family life courses. In this paper, we present a microsimulation model of family life trajectories, which models the changing family patterns taking into account the complex interrelationships between childbearing and partnership processes. The microsimulation model is parameterized to retrospective data for women born since 1940 in Italy, Great Britain and two Nordic countries (Norway and Sweden), representing three significantly different cultural and institutional contexts of partnering and childbearing in Europe. Validation of the simulated family life courses against their real-world equivalents shows that the simulations not only closely replicate observed childbearing and partnership processes, but also give good predictions when compared to more recent fertility indicators. We conclude that the presented microsimulation model is suitable for exploring changing family dynamics and outline potential research questions and further applications
