Evidence of conditioned behavior in amoebae
(Nature, 2019-08-15)
Associative memory is the main type of learning by which complex organisms endowed with evolved nervous systems respond efficiently to certain environmental stimuli. It has been found in different multicellular species, ...
Soil Erosion and Forests Biomass as Energy Resource in the Basin of the Oka River in Biscay, Northern Spain
(MDPI, 2017-07)
The aim of this work has been the development of a methodology for the evaluation of residual forest biomass in Biscay, a province in northern Spain. The study area is located in the Oka river basin, an area of great ...
Assessment of Biomass Energy Potential and Forest Carbon Stocks in Biscay (Spain)
(MDPI, 2016-03)
The aim of this research is to identify, quantify and characterize the potential available forest biomass of Pinus radiata D. Don and Eucalyptus globulus Labill. across Biscay province in northern Spain. In order to do ...
On the Dynamics of the Adenylate Energy System: Homeorhesis vs Homeostasis
(Public Library Science, 2014-10-10)
Biochemical energy is the fundamental element that maintains both the adequate turnover of the biomolecular structures and the functional metabolic viability of unicellular organisms. The levels of ATP, ADP and AMP reflect ...
Spatial Distribution of Biomass and Woody Litter for Bio-Energy in Biscay (Spain)
(MDPI, 2018-05)
Forest management has been considered a subject of interest, because they act as carbon (C) sinks to mitigate CO2 emissions and also as producers of woody litter (WL) for bio-energy. Overall, a sustainably managed system ...
How Do We Create Experiences for Students That Connect with What They Care About?
(MDPI, 2018-10-26)
The main aim of this work is to describe the process by which some students, participating in a teaching experiment, recreate with guidance material and personal attendance some advanced concepts at the doctoral level. ...
Problem-Based Teaching through Video Podcasts for Coding and Cryptography
(MDPI, 2018-10-31)
In this work we present the development and preliminary evaluation of several problem-based video podcasts addressed to students of the subject “Coding and Cryptography”. Specifically, this experiment has been carried out ...
Sustainable Renewable Energy by Means of Using Residual Forest Biomass
(MDPI, 2018-12-21)
The substitution of energy based on fossil fuel by bioenergy could be an effective solution to reduce external energy dependency, thereby promoting sustainable development. This article details a study of the use of biomass ...
CALE: Learning by Example in Mathematics with Applets in Mathematical Computational Packages
(MDPI, 2018-10-28)
In this work we present a methodology of “learning by example” assisted by computers in the study of mathematics. We propose the use of mathematical computational packages to program applets aimed to solve mathematical ...
Binormal Motion of Curves with Constant Torsion in 3-Spaces
(Hindawi, 2017)
We study curve motion by the binormal flow with curvature and torsion depending velocity and sweeping out immersed surfaces. Using the Gauss-Codazzi equations, we obtain filaments evolving with constant torsion which arise ...
