High-resolution environmental change in the late Jurassic Kimmeridge clay formation
No full textSeveral discrete intervals of the Late Jurassic Kimmeridge Clay Formation were analyzed to assess the high-resolution environmental change, which occurs within laminated lithologies. The material was from new boreholes drilled in Dorset, southern England, for the Rapid Global Geological Events (RGGE) project. Complementary techniques of back scattered electron microscopy, palynology, total organic carbon and atomic H/C ratios were used to determine the fabric structure and composition and the character of the organic matter component. The sampling resolution was higher than for previous studies, based on two scales, a lower resolution 5cm point sample scale and a high-resolution lamina scale. Modern day water column, benthic and sedimentary processes were applied to explain fabric composition and structure. This shows the KCF to have been a complex marine system. All lithologies were dominated by three major components of organic matter, carbonate and clays/silts, the flux of which was a primary control on both the lithology and microfabric, together with water column oxygenation levels and terrestrial input. Sedimentation rates, based on a yearly assumption for organic-rich and coccolith-rich laminae couplets, ranged from 4.5cm per 1000 years for the oil shales to 30-118cm per 1000 years for the coccolith limestone. TOC % ranged from 3-51%, while an average atomic H/C ratio of 1.5 indicated type I to type II kerogens. Optical microscopy found the organic matter to be dominated by amorphous forms (AOM). Palynological analysis of structured organic particles revealed a close correlation between the marine and terrestrial environments and significant variability between lithologies. Oil shales were charcterized by very low particle abundances, while coccolith-rich lithologies showed high frequency and high-amplitude pulses of organic particles. These pulses are interpreted as the result of storms causing re-suspension and transportation of organic material, clays and nutrients from the proximal shelf into the distal basin. These storm events occur at the beginning and end of the coccolith limestones and thus, are suggested to have been linked to the initiation and cessation of coccolith limestone deposition. An intensification of the palaeo-Atlantic storm track due to an increase in climate humidity and instability is postulated to have resulted in these high frequency and high intensity storms. The frequency of these storm episodes was calculated to represent periods of 60 to 100 years, and possibly up to 200-400 years. Environmental and climatic reconstructions were made for the intervals by combining the fabric, geochemical and palynological results and interpretations. High-resolution change below the Milankovitch frequency was found to be present within the intervals on a number of scales. These changes ranged from yearly 'varve couplet' alternations of organic-rich and coccolith-rich fabric, to 60-100 year and perhaps 200-400 year storm events and larger scale events of the order of several 1000 years. The later represent changes in climatic humidity over the limestone lithologies
La Cassazione si pronuncia sull'esatta portata della fattispecie di "denuncia di un sinistro non accaduto" di cui all'art. 642 c.p.
No full textNella prima parte della nota, l’Autore analizza la fattispecie di «denuncia di un sinistro non accaduto» di cui all’art. 642, comma 2, c.p., introdotta nel 2002 nell’ambito della riforma delle assicurazioni R.C. Auto, per, poi, affrontare la questione su cui si è pronunciata la Corte di cassazione, relativa al significato da attribuire al concetto di “sinistro”. Infine, l’Autore offre le proprie riflessioni sui rapporti intercorrenti tra la fattispecie esaminata e le altre ipotesi delittuose previste dall’art. 642 c.p. e sulla compatibilità di tali reati con il principio di offensività.In the first part of the note, the Author analyzes the crime of “denunciation of a false accident” that was introduced into the art. 642 c.p. in 2002, and, then, the question about the meaning of “sinistro” (accident) on which the Supreme Court stated. Finally, the Author offers his own reflections on the connection between the examinated crime and other felonies provided under art. 642 c.p., and, also, on compatibility of those crimes with the principle of seriousness of the offense

No full textLa presente investigación tuvo como finalidad describir la relación del clima social
familiar y la conducta asertiva en los estudiantes de la I.E. N° 89510, C.P. “Cerro
Blanco” de Nepeña, 2020.
Para ello se consideró realizar un análisis cuantitativo no experimental, de
carácter descriptivo–correlacional y un diseño Correlacional, esto en una muestra
no probabilística de 30 estudiantes. A quienes se les aplicó dos test, uno sobre el
clima social familiar de 30 preguntas; y el otro, de Asertividad de 20 preguntas, en
ambos casos de preguntas cerradas con respuestas del tipo Likert (siempre 3, a
veces 2 y nunca 1), la validez fue determinado a criterio de juicio de expertos y la
confiablidad del instrumento se determinó por medio de la prueba estadística de
Alfa de Cronbrach (0,908) (0,771) de confiablidad muy bueno. El análisis de los
datos se realizó por medio del programa Excel (tablas de frecuencias y figuras),
Prueba de Pearson y “t” Student y se utilizó el método interpretativo, lográndose
obtener las siguientes conclusiones:
Existe relación significativa entre el clima social familiar y la conducta asertiva en
los estudiantes de la I.E. N° 89510, C.P. “Cerro Blanco” de Nepeña, 2020. Porque
se tiene que = 0,713 , que según la tabla de Pearson la correlación es positiva
alta, entre clima social familiar y conducta asertiva. Además es significativa
porque = 5,38 > = 2,05.
El nivel de clima social familiar en los estudiantes de la I.E. N° 89510, C.P. “Cerro
Blanco” de Nepeña más predominante es el regular con 60%, lo que indica que en
su mayoria los niños y niñas no cuenta con un adecuada relación, cohesión y
estabilidad familiar y esto puede influenciar negativamente en el desarrollo

Suspended graphene beams with tunable gap for squeeze-film pressure sensing
No full textWe present suspended graphene pressure sensors fabricated using an innovative surface micro-machining process. The great advantage of this process is that the molybdenum (Mo) catalyst layer for multi-layer graphene chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is also used as a sacrificial layer to suspend the graphene. This method allows for accurate control of the gap size under the beam by simply varying the catalyst thickness. Furthermore, the need for transfer of the graphene layer is eliminated. Using this method, wafer-scale graphene squeeze-film pressure sensors are fabricated and characterized.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Electronic Components, Technology and MaterialsQN/Steeneken LabQN/van der Zant LabDynamics of Micro and Nano System
