    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas, Programa de Pós-Graduação em História, Florianópolis, 2011Esta pesquisa aborda a trajetória profissional da jornalista Amira Hass e o conflito palestino-israelense, mais especificamente a vida cotidiana dos palestinos de Gaza e da Cisjordânia, com um recorte temporal de 1993 a 2005. Minha intenção neste trabalho é, através das lentes de Amira, relatar o dia-a-dia do conflito palestino-israelense nos Territórios Palestinos, e mostrar como a jornalista está inserida nesse contexto. Utilizo como fonte os seus três livros publicados, uma entrevista realizada em Ferrara, o meu diário de campo nos territórios ocupados, entrevistas que Amira concedeu a outros periódicos e o diário que sua mãe, Hanna Lévy-Hass, escreveu no campo de concentração nazista de Bergen-Belsen. Mais do que um mergulho nas questões de Israel ou dos Territórios Palestinos, este é um mergulho no universo de Amira Hass. A pesquisa está inserida no que se convencionou chamar de História do Tempo Presente e utiliza a História Oral, a etnografia e o gênero como ferramentas teórico-metodológica de abordagem. O trabalho se divide em três partes: o primeiro capítulo trabalha a construção da memória familiar de Amira Hass, que é filha de sobreviventes do Holocausto, e a sua formação profissional. O capítulo 2 aborda a ida da jornalista para Gaza e o capítulo 3 é sobre a vida de Amira em Ramallah. Todos os capítulos, além de estarem permeados pela história de Israel e dos Territórios Palestinos, abordam os relatos do cotidiano e de gênero produzidos pela jornalista. Na pesquisa, pude observar que a narrativa de Amira Hass, com a sua memória familiar, a memória de mulheres e homens palestinos e os sentimentos da intimidade, pode nos aproximar da história. Os escritos pessoais também são um #acervo histórico# e essa fonte, a obra de Amira, ajuda-nos a ler a história nas entrelinhas, seja a história dos judeus que sobreviveram ao Holocausto, seja a história do conflito entre palestinos e israelenses, um dos maiores dramas políticos do nosso tempo.My research object is the Israeli journalist Amira Hass and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, specifically the issues of Palestinians ordinary life in Gaza and in the West Bank, from 1993 to 2005. ty intention in this work is to report daily life in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, through the lens of Amira. My sources are her three published books, an interview conducted in Ferrara (Italy), my field diary in the Palestinian Territories, interviews of Amira to newspapers and tv channels, and a diary that her mother, Hanna Lévy-Hass, wrote in the Nazi concentration camp of Bergen-Belsen. More than an immersion in the issues of Israel or the Palestinian Territories, this is an immersion in Amira Hass# world. The research is related to the History of Present Time and uses oral history, ethnography and gender as tools of methodological approach. This work is divided into three parts: the first chapter talks about the family memories of Amira Hass and her begging as a journalist. Chapter 2 focuses on Amira#s way to Gaza and Chapter 3 is about Amira#s life and what she sees in Ramallah. All chapters are permeated by Israel#s and the Palestinian territories# history, and Amira#s articles about life and gender. In this research, I#ve noticed that the narrative of Amira Hass, with her family memories, the memory of Palestinians and the feelings of intimacy can bring us closer to History. The personal writings are also an "historical archive" and this source, the work of Amira Hass, helps us read the History between the lines, the History of Jews who survived the Holocaust, and the History of the conflict between Palestinians and Israelis, one of the greatest contemporary political dramas

    Winter Leaf Yellowing in 'Hass' Avocado

    No full text
    The New Zealand avocado industry is worth $39.7 million in exports of 'Hass' avocados. Crop yields grew steadily from 1996 to 2001 to reach an average of 8.86 tonnes/ha. Since then however, crop yields have remained steady. To increase returns to growers, crop yields must increase. Avocado leaves in New Zealand become yellow in winter and it is hypothesised that chilling, followed by photoinhibition, is leading to photooxidation. Leaf yellowing leads to reduced photosynthetic capacity and early leaf abscission, at a time when carbon fixation and carbohydrate reserves are needed to support developing flowers, subsequent fruit set and vegetative flush, in addition to the existing mature crop. The focus of this research was to determine the underlying causes of yellowing in 'Hass' avocado leaves during winter. It is suspected that it is a result of the creation of free-radical oxygen that causes photooxidation of leaf components under excess light during low temperature conditions, such as experienced on clear winter mornings in the Bay of Plenty. An orchard in Katikati, in the Bay of Plenty, New Zealand was selected has it had a history of leaf yellowing. Two open flow, differential gas exchange measurement systems, The CIRAS-1 and the CMS-400 were used to monitor leaf photosynthetic performance over the course of the 2006 winter, with particular focus on the month of August. Chlorophyll a fluorescence was measured with a Walz Mini-PAM, leaf colour with a Minolta Chroma meter CR-200b and chlorophyll content with Minolta SPAD chlorophyll meter (in addition to traditional extraction techniques). There was conclusive evidence that the cold nights resulted in decreased net photosynthesis over the winter, with the depression starting in May and ending around the middle of August, dates that coincide closely with the period when days with mean temperatures less than 10 C occurred. The decrease in photosynthesis appears to be due to a direct effect on the carbon reduction pathway and in unusual in that full recovery seems to occur at the same time during the day. No photodamage of significance was found and the avocado seems to be highly protected against high light when photosynthesis is inhibited. This investigation found that leaf yellowing is not caused by photodamage following depressed photosynthesis. A new hypothesis is proposed which suggests that leaf yellowing is produced by the re-allocation of nitrogen from leaves during cold weather during flowering. It is suggested that the chilled leaves are seen as unproductive, old or shaded leaves by the plant and nutrient resources are re-allocated away from these leaves. A foliar application of 1% low biuret urea and 0.5% magnesium sulphate is currently used by avocado growers to restore leaf colour in leaves that have become yellow over winter. An experiment was carried out on yellowed leaves on 23rd August 2006 to determine the effectiveness of the treatment. This study concluded that the treatment was able to restore some leaf colour, but had no effect on leaf photosynthetic function
