Historical sea level observations from Santander, Spain (1876-1928)
No full textA set of historical tide gauge sea level records from Santander (Northern Spain) have been recovered from logbooks stored at the Spanish National Geographical Institute (IGN). Sea level measurements have been digitised, quality-controlled and merged into a consistent sea level time series. Vertical references among instruments benchmarks have been derived from high precision vertical levelling surveys. The observations were recorded as daily averages and are from three different instruments in two locations in Santander (Spain). The historical sea level record in Santander consists of a daily time series spanning the period 1876-1928 and it is further connected to the modern tide gauge station nearby, ensuring datum continuity up to the present. The data from Santander comes from a floating gauge and then syphon gauges. This scarcity of long-term sea-level observations, as well as their uneven geographical distribution is a major challenge for climate studies that address, for example, the quantification of mean sea-level rise at centennial time scales, the accurate assessment of sea-level acceleration or the long-term changes in sea-level extremes that are vital for coastal risk assessments. This dataset represents an additional effort of sea-level data archaeology and aims at preserving the historical scientific heritage that has been up to now stored in old archives in non-electronic format. The research was partially funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities. A further two series were rescued from Alicante under the same initiative.

No full textTHE SANTANDER ATLANTIC TIME-SERIES. A deep water observatory representative of the Eastern North Atlantic.
No full textThe SATS including the AGL buoy data and its oceanographic station have provided -for more than 12 years
now- repeated high-frequency observations of interlinked meteorological, oceanographic and
biogeochemical variables that enable to obtain a comprehensive description of ocean processes from the
seafloor to the atmosphere at a site representative of the mid-latitudes of the Eastern North Atlantic.
The Santander standard section has been running from early 90’s as a monthly hydrographical series in six
fixed stations covering from coastal to oceanic waters. Near the outer station, 2800m depth, the Augusto
Gonzalez de Linares (AGL) ocean-meteorological buoy was deployed in June 2007. For the monthly cruises,
the research vessel equipped with a rosette and 911plus SBE CTD takes water samples to analyze various
parameters including plankton biomass and dissolved nutrients, allowing check and calibration of buoy
sensors.
The AGL buoy is equipped with meteorological sensors set up at 3m above sea surface, directional wave
sensor in the deck and oceanographic sensors placed at a depth of 3m. Data are transmitted hourly via
IRIDIUM to the reception station located at the IEO Santander Cent

Historical tide gauge sea‐level observations in Alicante and Santander (Spain) since the 19th century
No full textAbstract A set of historical tide gauge sea‐level records from two locations in Santander (Northern Spain) and Alicante (Spanish Mediterranean coast) have been recovered from logbooks stored in national archives. Sea‐level measurements have been digitized, quality‐controlled and merged into three consistent sea‐level time series (two in Alicante and one in Santander) using high‐precision levelling information. The historical sea‐level record in Santander consists of a daily time series spanning the period 1876‐1924 and it is further connected to the record from the modern tide gauge station nearby, ensuring datum continuity up to the present. The sea‐level recording in Alicante started in 1870, with daily averaged values until the 1920s and hourly afterwards, and the tide gauges at the two Alicante sites are still operating, thereby providing one of the longest tide gauge sea‐level time series in the Mediterranean Sea. The long‐term consistency and reliability of the new records are discussed based on comparison with nearby tide gauge time series

Marcos Pérez Jiménez y Gustavo Rojas Pinilla: Dos modelos de dictaduras desarrollistas en América Latina
No full textAseries of military regimes established in Latin America during the 1950s impelled economic development through the promotion of industrialization processes. Among these so-called “developmentalist dictatorships” were the Marcos Pérez Jiménez government in Venezuela, Manuel Odría in Perú, Gustavo Rojas Pinillas in Colombia, and Juscelino Kubitschek in Brasil. The objective of this work is to present a comparative study of the Marcos Pérez Jiménez and Gustavo Rojas Pinilla regimes, taking into account the historical context in which they emerged, the development model promoted, the concepts about democracy and people and the role of the State in the economic development.En la década de los 50, se establecieron en América Latina una serie de regímenes militares que impulsaron el desarrollo económico a través de la promoción de los procesos de industrialización. Entre estas llamadas “dictaduras desarrollistas” figuran los gobiernos de Marcos Pérez Jiménez en Venezuela, Manuel Odría en Perú, Gustavo Rojas Pinilla en Colombia, y Juscelino Kubitschek en Brasil. El objetivo de este artículo de investigación, es presentar un estudio comparado de los regímenes de Marcos Pérez Jiménez en Venezuela y Gustavo Rojas Pinilla en Colombia, tomando en cuenta el contexto histórico en el que surgen, el modelo de desarrollo promovido, su visión de la democracia y el pueblo, y el papel del Estado en el desarrollo económico.
Courageous women in media: Marcos and censorship in the Philippines
No full textWhen Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos declared Martial Law in 1972, press freedom became the first casualty in the country that once boasted of being the 'freest in Asia'. Printing presses, newspaper offices, television and radio stations were raided and padlocked. Marcos was especially fearful of the press and ordered the arrest of journalists whom he charged with conspiring with the 'Left'. Pressured into lifting martial law after nearly 10 years, Marcos continued to censor the media, often demanding publishers to sack journalists whose writing he disapproved of. Ironically, he used the same 'subversive writings' as proof to Western observers that freedom of the press was alive and well under his dictatorship. This article looks at the writings of three female journalists from the Bulletin Today. The author examines the work of Arlene Babst, Ninez Cacho-Olivares, and Melinda de Jesus and how they traversed the dictator's fickle, sometimes volatile, reception of their writing. Interviewed is Ninez Cacho-Olivare, who used humour and fairy tales in her popular column to criticise Marcos, his wife, Imelda, and even the military that would occasionally 'invite' her for questioning. She explains an unwritten code of conduct between Marcos and female journalists that served to shield them from total political repression
