Blogs segundo a tipologia textual baseada em contexto: proposta para análise textual em estudos da tradução
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão. Programa de Pós-graduação em Estudos da Tradução, Florianópolis, 2013Este trabalho, filiado à pesquisa de minha co-orientadora Dra. Elaine Espíndola, realizado na Hong Kong Polytechnic University, tem como objetivo apresentar resultados de uma pesquisa desenvolvida na interface entre Linguística Sistêmico-Funcional (LSF) e Estudos da Tradução com foco em Tipologia Textual baseada em contexto. A base teórica do trabalho está assentada na proposta de 'Atividades Sócio Semióticas', representada graficamente na chamada Esfera de Atividades Sócio-Semióticas, de Matthiessen, Wu e Teruya (2007). Apresenta-se inicialmente uma coleta de dados (blogs) compilados em formato eletrônico e relativos às tipologias textuais nos contextos do português brasileiro (PB) e inglês americano (IA). A seguir, apresenta-se a classificação dos textos coletados nesses blogs com base nas 'Atividades Socio-Semióticas'. Após a classificação sócio semiótica, uma análise de transitividade é realizada com vistas a explorar a relação entre a Tipologia Textual baseada em contexto e os padrões gramaticais do sistema de transitividade que realizam os diferentes tipos textuais. Por fim os resultados dessa análise são comparados para fins de identificar diferenças e semelhanças nas configurações texto-contextuais dos dois conjuntos de textos produzidos em ambos os idiomas. Os desdobramentos dessa comparação buscarão traçar um perfil 'socio-semiótico'dos textos analisados, com vistas a fornecer um modelo de parâmetros textuais para formação de tradutores na dimensão bilíngue/ textual do desenvolvimento de suas competências This work is affiliated to the research undertaken at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University by my co advisor Dr. Elaine Espíndola. It aims at presenting the results of a research developed at the interface between Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) and Translation Studies about Context based Text Typology. The theoretical framework rests on the notion of "Socio Semiotic Activities" graphically represented by the Sphere of Socio Semiotic Activities proposed by Matthiessen, Wu and Teruya in 2007. First, a collection of data (texts from two blogs) from the context of Brazilian Portuguese and American English Text Typology compiled in electronic format is presented. Afterwords, the classification of the selected texts in terms of their Socio Semiotic Activities is exposed, and after this classification, an analysis of transitivity is carried out in order to explore the relation between Context based Text Typology and the grammatical different patterns of transitivity realized in differente types of texts. Lastly, the results obtained from the analysis of the texts in Brazilian Portuguese (PB) and in American English (IA) are compared aiming at identifying differences and/or similarities in the text and contextual configurations in both sets of texts produced in both languages. The unfoldings of this comparison will attempt to draw a Socio-semiotic profile of texts under study with a view to providing a framework for translators' education in what regards the development of their bilingual/textual subcompetence
Benthic foraminiferal counts >63 µm, absolute and relative abundances in sediment core PS2185-6
No full textPS2185-6 was retrieved in 1991 during the Polarstern expedition ARKVIII/-3. Samples were freeze-dried and weight, thereafter, samples were wet and dry sieved over a >63 µm and 125 µm mesh, respectively. Benthic foraminifera were picked from sample splits of each grain-size fraction. Extrapolated to 100%, counts on the grain-size fraction were combined to create a data set >63 µm. This table shows the absolute abundances of species per gramm dry weight and their relative abundances. Species that don't contribute to bioevents in the sense of Wollenburg & Matthiessen (submitt.) were combined as 'others'

For each fraction the weight was determined and is provided as grain-size weight and % for each analysed sample. Benthic foraminifera were picked from sample splits of each grain-size fraction. Extrapolated to 100%, counts on the grain-size fraction were combined to create a data set >63 µm.

Fabeln von Erasmus Alberus
No full textGood strong rhymes in Gothic script. The Nachwort is real Third Reich stuff, speaking of eine Rückkehr zu den Urkraftquellen deutschen Volkstums. The stories are all Aesopic. There are wonderful woodcuts (which probably originally appeared in 1566) for the 15 fables and on the front cover. A little pearl!This is a hardbound book (hard cover)Language note: GermanErasmus Alberus and Wilhelm Matthiesse
Intraspecific cell size variability in the marine diatom Chaetoceros affinis along a nutrient gradient
No full textThe role of interspecific variability on the functioning of phytoplankton communities along environmental gradients has been well studied, while today still too little is known about the role of intraspecific variability, which may occur at an inter- and/or intragenotypic level.
Nine different genotypes of Chaetoceros affinis were incubated under different nitrate concentrations: first altogether and with another stably coexisting species, the coccolitophore Emiliania huxleyi, through a long-term community experiment (199 days); then individually, through a short-term plasticity experiment (7 days). A significant intraspecific variability in cell size of Chaetoceros affinis was detected in both the experiments. According to a trait-based perspective, while no correspondence was observed among the cell size and nitrate concentrations at the intergenotypic level, the biggest cells were detected at the highest nitrate concentrations at the intragenotipic level in the community experiment in the long-term. This drove an increase in C. affinis mean cell size and total biomass along the nitrate gradient. In the plasticity experiment, significant differences in cell size along the nitrate gradient determined important variations in cellular nutrient content and stoichiometry at both the inter- and intragenotypic level.
This work provides new findings on the intraspecific variability in phytoplankton morpho-functional traits and underlines the importance of considering this when phytoplankton responses to environmental changes are investigated
