    Stenus ceramicola PUTHZ 1994 spec. propr. Stenus piliferus ceramicola PUTHZ 1994b: 54. Der sklerotisierte Innenring des Medianlobus (vgl. Abb. 1, l. c.) – ähnlich wie bei S. hirtellus SHARP – stellt einen klaren Unterschied zu S. piliferus und seinen Subspezies dar, deshalb muss dieses Taxon aufgewertet werden.Published as part of Puthz, V., 2013, Übersicht über die orientalischen Arten der Gattung Stenus LATREILLE 1797 (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae) 330.

    Submarine Mass-Movements Along the Slopes of the Active Ionian Continental Margins and Their Consequences for Marine Geohazards (Mediterranean Sea)

    The Ionian margins of Calabria and Apulia (IMCA) have been affected by mass movements of varying style, scale and age. Here we present examples of seabed and subsurface features identified along more than 400 km of the IMCA from multibeam seabed imagery and subbottom profiles acquired by OGS since 2005. Four different types of mass movement phenomena are recognized with expression at seabed and in the shallow subsurface: (1) mass transport complexes (MTCs) within intra-slope basins, (2) isolated slide scars (ISS) along open slopes, (3) slope-parallel sediment undulations (SPSU) recording block-rotations linked to fluid migration, and (4) headwall and sidewall scarps (HSC) in submarine canyons. Preliminary analyses of sedimentary processes suggest that both open-slope failures capable of triggering tsunamis and retrogression of canyon headwallswithin 1–3 km of the Calabrian coast represent potential geohazards for coastal populations and offshore infrastructures

The editor, Frederic Briand, reviewed and edited the entire Monograph, with special attention to this opening chapter where his correspondence with Peter Harris, Pere Puig, Namik Çağatay, Marie-Claire Fabri and David Amblas was particularly useful. His gratitude is extended to Valerie Gollino for attending to the physical production of the Monograph under tighter deadlines than usualPeer Reviewe

    Active tectonics in the Calabrian Arc: Insights from the Late Miocene to Recent structural evolution of the Squillace Basin (offshore eastern Calabria)

    The Calabrian Arc represents one of the most active sectors of the upper plate of the Tyrrhenian-Ionian subduction system. This research aims to reconstruct the evolution of the Squillace Basin (Ionian offshore of the Calabrian Arc) from the Late Miocene to Recent times and recognise active shallow and deep structures using a multiscale approach. The latter is based on interpreting high-penetration and high-resolution seismic reflection profiles, calibrated with well-log data coupled with bathymetric data and the distribution of instrumental earthquakes. Data highlight three steps in the evolution of the Squillace Basin. A Late Miocene extensional event led to the formation of WNW-ESE oriented horst and half-graben structures. During the Pliocene, deformation was localised in the central and northern sectors of the basin and expressed by a WNW-ESE oriented strike-slip fault and NW-SE normal to trastensional faults, respectively. A transpressional event started in the Early Pleistocene, causing the positive inversion of deep (> 3 km) extensional faults and the formation of NW-SE to WNWESE oriented transpressional/reverse faults and related anticlines. The kinematics of these faults agree with the NW-SE oriented left-lateral Albi-Cosenza, Lamezia-Catanzaro and Petilia-Sosti crustal fault zones developed in north Calabria. The results of this work suggest that the transpressional structures in the northwestern sector of the basin likely represent the offshore prolongation of the Albi-Cosenza fault zone. NW-SE to WNW-ESE trending, shallow (<2 km) high-angle normal faults offset the younger deposits. Their depth and direction indicate that these faults are secondary structures formed in the extrados of the anticlines associated with the transpressional faults. The distribution of earthquakes shows events with M > 3 and depth <15 km located in the hanging wall of transpressional faults. The integrated data suggest that these structures are active and probably responsible for the major earthquakes that affected the Ionian offshore

    Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)

    No full text
    This study indicates the ways in which various aspects of the author(s) are brought forth in Dumb type’s performance art, the S/N production. Previous research has suggested a non-hierarchical organization of Dumb type and the absence of a “privileged author” in Dumb type’s collaborative work, S/N. However, the results that I have investigated from member’s interviews on the creative process of S/N along with my analysis of the recorded images of S/N, indicate a different aspect of the author(s). First, S/N was created through, so to speak, the collective ideas of the members of Dumb type. Further, S/N has at least nine quotations from previous performances, installations, and printed writings, besides the work-in-progress technique. Explicating one of the “author functions” as given by Michel Foucault, each text has plural subjects of the author. However, it has been revealed from members’ interviews that Teiji Furuhashi had a decision-making role in selecting the members’ ideas within the performance. Since then, S/N has had plural subjects of creation; however, Furuhashi is one of the subjects of creation along with the “privileged author.” S/N has plural authors (diffusive authors) yet at the same time, it has a “privileged author,” Teiji Furuhashi (cohesive author)

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
