Conversation between Monica Tavares and Eduardo Navas
No full textABSTRACT This text is the result of a conversation between Monica Tavares and Eduardo Navas about the act of remixing. It is a reflection on the subjects discussed in the articles delivered by the students (Ana Elisa Carramaschi, Gabriela Previdello, Jair Molina, Lali Krotoszynski, Leonardo Lima, Maurício Trentin, Priscila Guerra e Rodrigo Campos) of the course “Principles of Data Analysis and Remix” taught in March 2015 in the Postgraduate Program in Visual Arts at USP (PPGAV-USP), under responsibility of Professors Dr. Monica Tavares and Dr. Eduardo Navas. The course introduced basic principles of data visualization and their relation to the principles of remixing. An emphasis was placed on analyzing information, while also developing strong design skills. The relation between image and text was explored, which means that students learned how to analyze content and form while understanding their similarities and differences
Forging collective memory: Las Navas and Bouvines
No full textThe importance of historical events is measured by the time they endure in the memory of those who experienced them directly, or of those who transmitted or received that memory as part of an historical inheritance. These are not insignificant or neutral matters; a central pillar of the construction of medieval social and cultural identities was the formation of collective memory. Using this premise as a starting point, this brief essay highlights two aspects that allow a general discussion of the battle of Las Navas in 1212. The first of them affects the modes of transmission of the single events that quickly become crucial moments in the historiography. The second, by taking the Battle of Bouvines in 1214 as a point of comparison, focuses on its articulation in the broader context of those unique events and the various interpretations that may result from their polysemy.Peer reviewe
Idle Talk, Deadly Talk: The Uses of Gossip in Caribbean Literature
No full textChaucer called it spiritual manslaughter ; Barthes and Benjamin deemed it dangerous linguistic nihilism. But gossip-long derided and dismissed by writers and intellectuals-is far from frivolous. In Idle Talk, Deadly Talk, Ana Rodríguez Navas reveals gossip to be an urgent, utilitarian, and deeply political practice-a means of staging the narrative tensions, and waging the narrative battles, that mark Caribbean politics and culture.From the calypso singer\u27s superficially innocent rhymes to the vicious slanders published in Trujillo-era gossip columns, words have been weapons, elevating one person or group at the expense of another. Revising the overly gendered existing critical frame, Rodríguez Navas argues that gossip is a fundamentally adversarial practice. Just as whispers and hearsay corrosively define and surveil identities, they also empower writers to skirt sanitized, monolithic historical accounts by weaving alternative versions of their nations\u27 histories from this self-governing discursive material. Reading recent fiction from the Hispanic, Anglophone, and Francophone Caribbean and their diasporas, alongside poetry, song lyrics, journalism, memoirs, and political essays, Idle Talk, Deadly Talk maps gossip\u27s place in the Caribbean and reveals its rich possibilities as both literary theme and narrative device. As a means for mediating contested narratives, both public and private, gossip emerges as a vital resource for scholars and writers grappling with the region\u27s troubled history

DR2-2013© SAGA v1.1 hydrological model
No full text1 File: 1 .dll File. The script of the module summarizes 7612 lines in two files (DR2.cpp and DR2.h) that are compiled in one file (DR2.dll).[EN] The DR2-2013© SAGA v1.1 module is the second programmed version (January 2014) of the third version (June 2013) of the GIS-based water balance Distributed Rainfall-Runoff (DR2) model. Software under notarial registration. Under GNU General Public License v3 (GPL-3) https://tldrlegal.com/license/gnu-general-public-license-v3-(gpl-3).[ES] El módulo DR2-2013© SAGA v1.1 es la segunda versión (Enero 2014) del programa informático de la tercera versión (Junio 2013) del modelo de balance hídrico y basado en SIG Distributed Rainfall-Runoff (DR2) model. Software registrado notarialmente. Bajo GNU General Public License v3 (GPL-3) https://tldrlegal.com/license/gnu-general-public-license-v3-(gpl-3).[EN] The DR2 model estimates for each month of the year the average: i) Time (Tp, s) and ii) volume to ponding, iii) the soil water content or Actual Available Water (Waa, mm), iv) the depth of Effective Cumulative Runoff (CQeff, mm) and the v) Soil Moisture Status (SMS, 7 wetness-drought categories) against water demand by actual and potential evapotranspiration (ETa, ET0, in mm). DR2 simulates the hydrological response of the topsoil or arable layer at hillslope and catchment scales without considering processes in permanent streams. DR2 v1.1 requires between 16 and 18 inputs (1 less than the original version) and it considers the spatial and temporal variations in rainfall intensity, soil saturation, vegetation and upslope contribution factors. It has been developed for the open-source SAGA© 2.0.8 GIS software for Microsoft Windows (32 bits). The DR2-2013© SAGA v1.1 module includes the 8 weighted Flow Accumulation Algorithms (4 single-flow and 4 multiple-flow) that can simulate 15 spatial patterns of runoff and includes one enhancement related to the previous version: The duration of effective runoff (TER, seconds) is calculated for each raster cell instead of being calculated as an average value for the whole study area. It includes the same statistical package for the values of the main outputs although color palettes of the output maps have been improved. Module libraries are developed using C++ code and the script of the DR2-2013© SAGA v1.0 module was registered by a notary (# 1734/2013, date: 12 September 2013, place: Madrid, Spain) and can be downloaded at: http://digital.csic.es/handle/10261/84613.[ES] DR2 calcula para cada mes del año los valores promedio de: i) Tiempo (Tp, s) y ii) volumen (mm) de saturación, iii) Contenido real de agua (Waa, mm), iv) Escorrentía acumulada efectiva (CQeff, mm) y v) Estado de humedad del suelo (SMS, 7 categorías de sequía-humedad) frente a la demanda hídrica por evapotranspiración potencial y real (ETa, ET0, en mm). DR2 simula la respuesta hidrológica del horizonte superior del suelo en laderas y cuencas pequeñas sin considerar los procesos en cursos de agua permanente. DR2 v1.1 requiere entre 16 y 18 parámetros de entrada (1 menos que la versión original) y considera las variaciones espaciales y temporales de los factores de intensidad y cantidad de la precipitación, de saturación del suelo, de la vegetación y de las condiciones topográficas. Se ha desarrollado para el programa de tipo SIG y de código abierto SAGA© 2.0.8 GIS para Microsoft Windows (32 bits). El módulo DR2-2013© SAGA v1.1 incluye los 8 algoritmos ponderados de enrutamiento de la escorrentía (4 sencillos y 4 múltiples) que simulan 15 patrones espaciales de escorrentía e incluye una mejora respecto a la versión 1.0: la duración de la escorrentía efectiva (TER, segundos) se calcula para cada píxel del terreno en lugar de simular un valor promedio para toda el área de estudio. Incluye el mismo paquete estadístico sobre los valores de los principales mapas de salida pero mejora la presentación de los mapas con nuevas paletas de color. Las librerías se han desarrollado en lenguaje C++ y el código del módulo DR2-2013© SAGA v1.0 se protegió y registró ante notario (número de registro 1734/2013, de 12 de septiembre de 2013, en Madrid, España) y se puede descargar en: http://digital.csic.es/handle/10261/84613.Financial support: Gobierno de Aragón – Obra Social “la Caixa” (Núm. de Expte. 2012 GA LC 034).

Pathways of water and sediment from source-to-sink under changing climate, anthropogenic impacts and other disturbances
No full text2 .pdf files (1. EGU2020 GM4.5 Session abstract; 2. EGU2020 GM4.5 Program). Session Convener: Achim A. Beylich. Session Co-conveners: Katja Laute, Ana Navas, Olimpiu Pop, Zbigniew Zwoliński, Stephen Darby, Jim Best, Frances DunnDenudation, including both chemical and mechanical processes, is of high relevance for Earth surface and landscape development and the transfer of solutes and sediments from headwater systems through main stem of drainage basin systems to the world oceans. Denudational hillslope and fluvial processes and associated source-to-sink fluxes and sedimentary budgets are controlled by a range of environmental drivers and can be significantly affected by climate change and anthropogenic activities.
The better understanding of possible effects of ongoing and accelerated environmental changes (including large-scale damming, hydrological change, and sediment mining) on present-day denudation requires systematic and quantitative studies on the actual drivers of denudational processes. Only if we have an improved quantitative knowledge of the drivers and rates of contemporary denudational hillslope and fluvial processes, as well as of the connectivity in landscapes and between hillslope and fluvial systems across a range of different spatio-temporal scales and selected climatic zones, can the possible effects of climatic changes and anthropogenic impacts and other disturbances be better assessed.
This session includes scientific contributions on denudational hillslope and fluvial processes, mass transfers, sedimentary budgets and landscape responses to ongoing and accelerated environmental changes in different climatic zones. Oral and poster contributions cover a wide range of different spatial scales, from hillslope and small headwater systems to large drainage basin systems. The session brings together and discusses a wide range of advanced techniques and methods of data collection and generation, including field-based, laboratory-based, remotely-sensed and dating techniques together with various approaches and methods of data analysis and geomorphologic modelling. The session seeks not only to identify the causes and drivers of changes in water, sediment and solute fluxes from "source-to-sink", but to also includes studies that present options for future sustainable management that recognise the particular characteristics and challenges of these complex systems.The session is co-organized by the IAG Working Group on Denudation and Environmental Changes in Different Morphoclimatic Zones (DENUCHANGE).
