Tsunami hazard scenarios in the Adriatic Sea domain
No full textThe tsunami phenomenon is mainly detected in oceanic domains but it can also occur in small basins as the Adriatic Sea. The presence of great waves has been recorded a few times in the past centuries on the Adriatic shorelines, therefore this suggests the idea to evaluate which could be the maximum amplitude reached by a possible future tsunami event. In this framework we calculate several synthetic mareograms applying to the shallow water basin case both the theory of modal summation by Panza et al. (2000) and the theory of the Green's function by Yanovskaya et al. (2003). The first is applied to the case of tsunamis generated by an offshore source, the second to the case of tsunamis generated by an inland source. Both kinds of tsunamigenic events did already occur in the Adriatic domain, as witnessed in many catalogues (Caputo and Faita, 1984; Bedosti and Caputo, 1986; Tinti et al., 2004) and also pointed out in the recent "Catalogue of reported tsunami events in the Adriatic Sea" (see Appendix).
We calculate synthetic mareograms varying those parameters which are the most influencing in tsunami generation, such as magnitude, focal depth, water layer thickness, etc., in order to estimate the expected values of tsunami maximum amplitude and arrival time, in the whole Adriatic basin, for the selected scenarios

Los movimientos sociales : el 15-M en la prensa española
No full textEl 15 de maig de 2011 es va produir un esclat social als carrers espanyols, fruit del cansament ciutadà per les polítiques econòmiques de retallades, sobretot en l'àmbit social, i per l'absència constant de democràcia real. Internet i les xarxes socials van jugar un paper determinant en el moviment 15-M, però els mitjans tradicionals no van estar a l'altura. Aquest treball presenta una anàlisi dels mitjans espanyols amb més difusió (El País, El Mundo, ABC i La Vanguardia) que així ho demostra.El 15 de mayo de 2011 se produjo un estallido social en las calles españolas, fruto del hartazgo ciudadano por las políticas económicas de recortes, sobre todo en el ámbito social, y por la ausencia constante de democracia real.

There was the result of public harassment by economic policies of cuts, especially in the social sphere, and by the constant absence of real democracy. The Internet and social networks played a determining role in the 15-M movement, but the traditional media did not measure up. This academic work presents an analysis of the most popular Spanish media (El País, El Mundo, ABC and La Vanguardia), which shows this
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
