Sobreexplotación pesquera: cosechar más de lo cultivado
Conferencia sobre "sobreexplotación pesqueira"
O pasado 9 de maio, alumnado de Bioloxía e Xeoloxía de 4º de ESO e 1º de Bacharelato asistiron a unha conferencia impartida por Isabel Riveiro, sobre a sobreexplotación pesqueira.
Isabel Riveiro é doctora en Ciencias do Mar e investigadora no Instituto Español de Oceanografía (IEO). Desenvolve o seu traballo de investigación en ecoloxía de animais peláxicos. Durante a súa ponencia Isabel Riveiro analizou as causas da sobreexplotación dos bancos pesqueiros asociadas principalmente ó exceso de frota pesqueira e o elevado número de descartes, polos que se capturan e desbotan gran cantidade de especies que carecen de interés comercial. Entre as posibles causas a este problema, Isabel Riveiro falou da necesidade de coñecer as poboacións naturais a través dos datos das capturas e das campañas científicas; da necesidade de coñecer a comunidade de seres vivos que cohabitan nun mesmo ecosistema; das medidas legais adoptadas (tallas mínimas, vedas, áreas mariñas protexidas, control de capturas, etc) e da necesidade de sensibilización social.
A conferencia foi organizada gracias á colaboración que o IES A Sangriña ten co Campus do Mar da Universidade de Vigo a través dos contratos programa ó abeiro do Proxecto Oceantica que pretende achegar a investigación científica ó alumnado de secundaria
Premios Isabel Zendal de Promoción do Pensamento Crítico en Educación Secundaria e Bacharelato. III Edición
Neste volume recóllense os traballos premiados na terceira edición dos Premios Isabel Zendal, convocada en marzo de 2021 e cuxa resolución tivo lugar en maio do mesmo ano. Conformaron o xurado: Mª Cristina Naya Riveiro, Francisco Armesto Ramón, Marisa Castiñeira García, Manuel Ferreiro Fernández, Manuel Francisco Herrador Barrios e Susana Ladra González.
O certame está dirixido ao alumnado escolarizado en centros educativos españois desde o primeiro curso da educación secundaria obrigatoria (ESO) ata o segundo curso de bacharelato, de modo que consta de dúas categorías de participación: unha para o alumnado de 1.º a 3.º curso da ESO e FP básica; e outra para o alumnado de 4.º da ESO a 2.º de bacharelato e mais dos ciclos formativos de grao medio.
A participación no concurso realízase a través dun xénero literario, que pode ser un artigo xornalístico, a exposición divulgativa dun experimento desenvolvido polo alumnado, o conto ou o relato curto. Valórase que os traballos integren os valores do pensamento escéptico e científico, a difusión do coñecemento, a ciencia e os seus métodos, a refutación das pseudociencias, así como a loita contra a difusión de enganos e novas falsas.
Os Premios Isabel Zendal, concibidos como unha actividade de extensión universitaria da Universidade da Coruña, por medio da Unidade de Divulgación Científica e Cultural e en colaboración co Círculo Escéptico e a Deputación da Coruña, teñen precisamente como finalidade este obxectivo: promover o pensamento crítico e a cultura científica entre a xuventude, vítima en moitas ocasións da difusión e divulgación de falsidades

Daughter of fortune: Isabel Allende's popularity from a readership perspective
The primary aim of this thesis is to explore and critically interrogate Isabel Allende’s popularity cross-culturally in Britain and Spain. It analyses readers’ responses to Allende’s works as well as the discourses surrounding her public representation, an approach that is ‘readerly’ but must also take account of production and text. This approach is intended to further the understanding of Allende’s work which so far has always been analysed from a textual perspective. However, the relationship between Allende’s popularity, her texts, public representation and readers has not been yet analysed in detail.This thesis is innovative in other ways too. Methodologically, it approaches readers through the under studied cultural form of the reading group. It also incorporates a comparative dimension by looking at the reception of Allende in two different cultural contexts: the British and Spanish respectively. Finding out about Allende’s popularity has involved asking readers about their reading experiences as well as analysing the production of discourses around her public representation. Paul Ricoeur’s (1984, 1988) perspective on authorial intentions and readers’ responses to texts helps in understanding the intricacies surrounding what is involved in reading any text. It draws attention to Allende’s and her publishers’ authorial strategies, her ‘strategies of persuasion’ and the specificity of the lives and contexts of British and Spanish reading publics. Equally, this ‘readerly’ approach draws on feminist audience research and primarily on the work of Ien Ang and Janice Radway. Their work with viewers and readers respectively is particularly useful in establishing and developing methodological parameters for the study of reading groups. As a whole, this thesis contributes to the understanding of Allende’s cross-cultural popularity by situating readers at the centre

PELACUS 0314 CRUISE REPORT
The Spanish acoustic-trawl times PELACUS 0314 was carried out on board R/V Miguel Oliver from 9th March to 8th April, covering the north Spanish waters (Atlantic and Bay of Biscay) from the coast to the 1000 m isobath on a systematic grid with tracks 8 nmi apart and equally spaced. Acoustic , fishing stations, fish egg counting, microplastic, and apical predators observations were done during daytime whilst the oceanographic characterisation was done during night time. A total of 1903 nautical miles were steamed, 1075 corresponding to the survey track. Besides 52 fishing stations were performed (Figure 2).
PELCACUS 0314 was characterised by relative stable weather conditions along the surveyed area. Besides, there was an important increase in backscattering energy as compared with the previous year. This resulted in an increase of the biomass estimated for the majority of the fish species, but still sardine is at lowest productivity ever recorded. Good recruitment would be observed in horse mackerel, but for the rest of the fish species, no strong signals for age group 1 have been detected.
The reasons for this increase would be related to the weather stability which could have increased the fish availability either for a change in the behaviour (i.e. spatial pattern distribution) or for an increase in the food availability. This is relevant accounting the increase of the occurrence of mackerel subsurface layers observed this year. As PELACUS is a multidisciplinary survey series (we collect environmental and biological ancillary information, stomach contents, including CTD cats, plankton tows or continuous records of plankton, eggs, S, T and flourometry), we will try to explain this change of behaviour. Our main hypothesis is that these species could follow mackerel when is undertaking vertical migration, probably related with the spawning activity, just for feeding eggs and, therefore, changing the expected schooling behaviour by the dispersed one, used during the feeding activity
Humanismo y Reforma en la corte renacentista de Isabel de Vilamarí : Escipión Capece y sus lectoras
Durante la primera mitad del siglo XVI y en la corte salernitana del último príncipe de la casa Sanseverino y de su esposa, Isabel de Vilamarí (noble señora de origen catalán) se desarrolló un intenso clima intelectual. Allí se congregaron artistas y humanistas italianos y españoles. En este ambiente de intercambio cultural, atento en participar en las ideas de la Reforma que se difundió en Nápoles gracias a B. Ochino y a Valdés, nace el poema De principiis rerum del último académico pontaniano: Escipión Capece. En esta obra no sólo se rastrean motivos lucrecianos y virgilianos sino también el influjo de los tratados cosmológicos de Pontano. En este estudio, la autora propone el análisis de la figura y de la obra de Capece a través de sus lectoras: Isabel de Vilamarí y las mujeres cultas de su corte.During the first half of sixteenth century and in the Salernitan court of the last prince Sanseverino and his wife Isabel de Vilamarí (a lady coming from a noble Catalan family) an intense intellectual climate developed. Italian and Spanish artists and humanists met there. In this environment of cultural exchange, that shared in the Reform ideas divulged in Naples by B. Ochino and Valdés, Scipione Capece (the last member of the Pontanian Academy) writes his poem De principiis rerum. In his book Capece uses Latin literature (Vergil and Lucretius mainly) and Pontano's treatises on cosmology. The author of this paper studies Scipione Capece through his female readership: Isabel de Vilamarí and the learned women from her court
