    O objetivo desta dissertação é compreender a produção intelectual de Luís Palacin à luz da história política e intelectual. Relacionado com a temática de poder e ideologia, tendo como fonte de pesquisa as obras: Quatro tempos de Ideologia e Subversão e Corrupção. A reflexão destas obras possibilitará perceber que Luís Palacin como um historicista procurou utilizar outras metodologias durante a sua escrita para caracterizar as relações de poder na sociedade goiana. O seguinte trabalho proporcionara uma compreensão sobre as relações de poder na sociedade goiana, luz, do pensamento de Luís Palacin, historiador espanhol, que veio para Goiânia realizar um projeto de evangelização, mas também um projeto de pesquisas serias sobre a História Goiás. Suas obras apresentam característica da nova história política, rompendo com o pensamento historiográfico tradicional. Palacin pode ser considerado um dos pioneiros em pesquisa sobre o poder e ideologia em Goiás.The objective of this dissertation is to understand the intellectual output of Luis Palacin the light of political and intellectual history.

Yet, how increased nitrogen has affected denitrification, a key process for nitrogen removal, is poorly understood. We measured actual and potential (nitrate and carbon amended) denitrification rates in sediments of several lake types and habitats in the Pyrenees during the ice-free season. Actual denitrification rates ranged from 0 to 9 μmol N2O m−2 h−1 (mean, 1.5 ± 1.6 SD), whereas potential rates were about 10-times higher. The highest actual rates occurred in warmer sediments with more nitrate available in the overlying water. Consequently, littoral habitats showed, on average, 3-fold higher rates than the deep zone. The highest denitrification potentials were found in more productive lakes located at relatively low altitude and small catchments, with warmer sediments, high relative abundance of denitrification nitrite reductase genes, and sulphate-rich waters. We conclude that increased nitrogen deposition has resulted in elevated denitrification rates, but not sufficiently to compensate for the atmospheric nitrogen loading in most of the highly oligotrophic lakes. However, there is potential for high rates, especially in the more productive lakes and landscape features largely govern this.Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación, Gobierno de España, Award: CGL2010-19373.

    Influence of titania morphology on the electrochemical properties of composite polymer electrolyte membranes

    A comparison of the physico-chemical properties of S-PEEK-based composite membranes containing nanometric or mesoporous anatase titania was carried out. The powders were characterized in terms of specific surface area (by B.E.T. apparatus), acidity, and structural features (XRD). Composites containing various amounts of both titania powders (from 1.33 up to 10% wt) were prepared by casting and their water uptake, proton exchange capacity and proton conductivity (EIS) were evaluated. Despite of its lower specific surface area (83 m(2)/g) nanometric titania-based composites clearly exhibited higher water absorption properties and superior electrochemical performance with respect to mesoporous titania (SSA =. 147 m(2)/g) containing systems. The improvement of membranes performance could be related to the larger number of water-adsorbing acidic sites on the nanometric surface
