En la cuenca mediterránea, las proyecciones relativas al cambio climático señalan un incremento de temperaturas máximas y mínimas aumento olas calor sequías extremas que, en relación con los incendios forestales, implican del riesgo, intensidad severidad mismos. Por ello, selvicultura adaptativa debe preparar masas forestales para minimizar el daño causado por fuego maximizar su capacidad recuperación. este contexto, aplicación prescrito constituye una herramienta gran utilidad modificación...
The major mm and sub-mm radio-astronomy observatories are prioritizing instantaneous bandwidth widening for their current or planned upgrades this decade. We present an ultra-wide-band ultra-low-noise cryogenic hybrid amplifier with 4 K (NF = 0.06 dB) average noise temperature in the 2-18 GHz band when cooled to 6 K. It is based on a 100 nm gate pseudomorphic InP HEMT outstanding characteristics. This demonstration meets IF demands of ALMA next generation receivers, doubling maximum...
We investigated the influence of fire severity, logging burnt wood, local ecological factors and their interaction on natural regeneration, survival growth maritime pine (Pinus pinaster Ait.), following a that took place in 2005. During period 2006–2020, sample 1900 seedlings were monitored, which three post-fire treatments applied: (1) Early (before seedling emergence); (2) Delayed (after (3) No management. Multivariate semi-parametric non-parametric techniques used to model survival,...
Mechanical treatments are traditionally used to modify the fuel complex in shrubland, but information about their actual effectiveness reducing risk of wildfire initiation is scarce. The effects two mechanical (shrub clearing with crushing and manual removal) on flammability a shrubland community north-western Spain were compared. Three months after treatment, laboratory tests using point-ignition source conducted fine dead fuels analyse effect type treatment moisture content (FMC) under...
Fuel management is commonly used to reduce fire risk in fire-prone shrubland, but information about the real efficacy of different techniques scarce. In this study, we assessed laboratory effects treatment types on initiation a mixed heathland. The two mechanical treatments and prescribed burning were compared with untreated vegetation. Flammability tests performed samples regenerated shrubs fine ground fuels present 2 years after treatments. Results indicate that all effective reducing...
