Minori su Internet: profili di responsabilità by Domiziano Pierantoni

“…Da ultimo, si vuole sottolineare l’importanza di un’adeguata azione preventiva volta a incrementare nei genitori, cui è affidato il delicato compito di accompagnare i figli nell’utilizzo della rete, quelle specifiche competenze tecniche necessarie per assolvere al meglio ai loro doveri di educazione e vigilanza. Appare fondamentale, a tal fine, offrire un’opportuna “educazione civica al digitale” che, tra le altre cose, renda edotti gli utenti del web, secondo codici semiotici e modelli comunicativi adeguati alle differenti fasce di età, circa i profili di responsabilità cui possono andare incontro a fronte di un utilizzo “sconsiderato” dello stesso.…”

Onde está a paisagem nas políticas ambientais e territoriais do México? by Martín Manuel Checa-Artasu

“…Sadly, these proposals have been stopped with the arrival of Lopez Obrador’s new government. These proposals apparently made the landscape an analytical and public management object but unfortunately, were disconnected from the contemporary theory of the landscape, from research inquiries made at the academy and even had a doubtful legal and operational applicability. …”

Two different mechanisms support selective attention at different phases of training. by Sirawaj Itthipuripat, Kexin Cha, Anna Byers, John T Serences

“…Early in training, spatial attention led to an increase in the gain of stimulus-evoked visual responses. Gain was apparent within ~100 ms of stimulus onset, and a quantitative model based on signal detection theory (SDT) successfully linked the magnitude of this gain modulation to attention-related improvements in behavior. …”

A Simulation Study of GNSS-R Polarimetric Scattering from the Bare Soil Surface Based on the AIEM by Xuerui Wu, Shuanggen Jin

“…Results show when the incident angles are larger than 70°, scattering at RR polarization (the transmitted signal is right-hand circular polarization (RHCP), while the received one is also RHCP) is larger than that at LR polarization (the transmitted signal is RHCP, while the received one is left-hand circular polarization (LHCP)), while scattering at LR polarization is larger than that at RR polarization for the other incident angles (1°∼70°). There is an apparent dip for VV and VR scatterings due to the Brewster angle, which will result in the notch in the final receiving power, and this phenomenon can be used for soil moisture retrieval or vegetation corrections. …”
