(Fundación de las Cajas de Ahorros, 2012-02)
En este trabajo investigamos los procesos de prociclicidad crediticia para las entidades de depósito españolas tomando en consideración el periodo 1984-2009. Así, en primer lugar, hemos aplicado la metodología macroprudencial ...
Ancient DNA from Hunter-Gatherer and Farmer Groups from Northern Spain Supports a Random Dispersion Model for the Neolithic Expansion into Europe
(Public Library of Science, 2012-04-25)
Background/Principal Findings: The phenomenon of Neolithisation refers to the transition of prehistoric populations from a hunter-gatherer to an agro-pastoralist lifestyle. Traditionally, the spread of an agro-pastoralist ...
PPs without Disguises: Reply to Bruening

appear in to-constructions under certain pragmatic circumstances. Bruening (2010a) ...
Multiple SNP Markers Reveal Fine-Scale Population and Deep Phylogeographic Structure in European Anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus L.)
(Public Library of Science, 2012-07-30)
Geographic surveys of allozymes, microsatellites, nuclear DNA (nDNA) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) have detected several genetic subdivisions among European anchovy populations. However, these studies have been limited in ...

El respeto a las decisiones autónomas de las personas se ha impuesto en la práctica médica diaria como norma reguladora de las relaciones entre profesionales y pacientes, y esto, en opinión de Alfred I. Tauber, ha puesto ...
Manipulation of domain wall dynamics in amorphous microwires through the magnetoelastic anisotropy
(Springer, 2012-04)
We studied the effect of magnetoelastic anisotropy on domain wall (DW) dynamics and remagnetization process of magnetically bistable Fe-Co-rich microwires with metallic nucleus diameters (from 1.4 to 22 mu m). We manipulated ...
