Governance networks in politics
No full textIn this chapter Dimitris Christopoulos provides an overview of governance networks in politics. Governance is examined both as a generative process to political structure as well as the product of political relations. The author outlines key parameters for capturing network properties of political action with a particular focus on political power and decision making. Of particular interest are the mechanisms through which agent relations affect power structures and the impact this has on governance outcomes. The key claim is that governance network topology is shaped by structural parameters, such as centralization levels as well as political structure, such as the rules of interaction among agents. The author argues that studies of governance ideally combine a focus on the quality of agent interactions, their political resources, resource transfers, power hierarchies, and actor values.</p
An agricultural practice as a direct threat to the snake-eyed skink Ablepharus kitaibelii (Bibron & Bory de Saint-Vincent, 1833) in central Greece
No full textTerrestrial reptiles are threatened by numerous anthropogenic activities, including agriculture. Many agricultural methods and techniques affect the herpetofauna located in the oldest known tree crops in the Mediterranean Basin, olive trees. For the first time, we present a case of unintentional capture (and killing) of 12 snake-eyed skinks Ablepharus kitaibelii (Bibron & Bory de Saint-Vincent, 1833) on an insect control sticky trap in an olive grove in central Greece.

Electromagnetic coupling inside enclosures with closely coupled electric monopoles and conducting planes
No full textThe efficiency and reliability of the multiple-mode transmission line theory applied to predict the electromagnetic coupling between electric monopoles with conducting planes inside a metallic enclosure is assessed in this paper. The planes are represented with an equivalent impedance through a transmission line analogy. Particularly critical coupling configurations, such as close monopole-to-plane and plane-to-plane configurations are tested. The results obtained with the proposed method are compared to experimental measurements and transmission-line modelling method (TLM) numerical simulations. The proposed model is attractive due to its rapidity and good accuracy in predicting the coupling configurations examined
