Several cladograms using the complete species sample, but obtained with different weightings, are presented. Local studies were also carried out to provide possible alternate topologies. The deep nodes of the trees were unstable and were never supported, but most of the superficial nodes were stable and robust. The results therefore provide support for a generic classification of the subfamily. The large genus Eurytoma – which includes about half of the described species of the subfamily – proved to be polyphyletic, and is redefined in a nar- rowed sense using putative synapomorphies. Bruchophagus and Prodecatoma were similarly redefined. The genera Philolema and Aximopsis are reconsidered and defined in a broader concept. A number of the species presently included in Eurytoma were transferred to these genera. Finally, 22 new generic synonymies are proposed and 33 spe- cies are transferred. The study also demonstrates that the Eurytomidae are polyphyletic.

De los impulsos a la convergencia político-comercial (1989-2007) Mgter. Juan José Vagni DIRECTORA: Dra. Gladys Lechini 21 de octubre de 2008 Este trabajo aborda las vinculaciones de Argentina con el Reino de Marruecos, en el contexto de sus relaciones con el Norte de África y África, centrando su atención en el período 1989-2007, etapa en la cual se profundizó el acercamiento entre ambos actores y, consecuentemente, el afianzamiento de los lazos bilaterales. Se pretende explicar porqué las relaciones político-diplomáticas y comerciales con Marruecos se intensificaron y avanzaron en el sentido de una convergencia político-comercial, a pesar del descenso del perfil de las relaciones argentino-africanas en la política exterior argentina. El incremento sostenido en la relación bilateral se produjo debido a la implementación de una política por impulsos, de carácter agregativo, que se sostuvo a lo largo de estos veinte años, gracias a las respuestas e insistencia del lado marroquí y a los acercamientos desarrollados por Brasil hacia la región norafricana. Mientras en los noventa se avanzó con el enfoque comercialista, animado por las coincidencias ideológicas resultantes del alineamiento con la potencia hegemónica; en el siglo XXI el enfoque comercialista se acentuó, pero ahora bajo el discurso de la cooperación Sur-Sur. 2 Argentina - Moroco. From impulses to political and commercial convergence (1989-2007) This thesis deals with the relationship between Argentina and Morocco in the broader context of the argentine relations with Africa and North Africa specifically.
  • The Portuguese Art of War in Northern Morocco During the 15 Century

    The Portuguese Art of War in Northern Morocco During the 15 Century

    Athens Journal of History - Volume 3, Issue 4 – Pages 321-336 The Portuguese Art of War in Northern Morocco during the 15th Century By Vitor Luís Gaspar Rodrigues This paper not only reviews the motives underlying the Portuguese expansionist project in Morocco in the 15th century, but also the political, economic, and particularly the social reasons that were in the basis of the Portuguese art of war in Morocco in that period. During the Iberian Reconquest (Reconquista), warfare was usually practiced by means of cavalcades, raids (razias) and ambushes, alongside with some siege actions. We will try to demonstrate that the Portuguese were forced to adopt a model of restricted territorial occupation and repeat the same technics and tactics of combat in Morocco, chiefly based on guerrilla war (guerra guerreada), as well as on siege and privateering actions, either offshore or onshore, by means of amphibian landings (saltos). We will also approach some of the changes that occurred in the defence systems of the Portuguese strongholds in North Africa, particularly at the turn of the 15th to the 16th centuries, as a result of the need to respond to the new challenges by the Moroccan armies equipped with fire weaponry. Keywords: Guerrilla war; maritime war; Northern Morocco; strongholds; siege war; fire weaponry. Portuguese Expansion in Morocco in the 15th Century: Main Causes The expansion project to Morocco by the Christian kingdoms from Iberia goes back to late 13th century, as attested by the Treaty of Soria, of 1291, signed by the monarchs of Castile and Aragon, which defined the areas to be occupied in the future by both kingdoms in North Africa, leaving the territorial stripe in the west of Ceuta to Portugal.
  • Tsunami Hazard and Buildings Vulnerability Along the Northern

    Tsunami Hazard and Buildings Vulnerability Along the Northern

    El Moussaoui et al. Geoenvironmental Disasters (2017) 4:25 Geoenvironmental Disasters DOI 10.1186/s40677-017-0089-6 RESEARCH Open Access Tsunami hazard and buildings vulnerability along the Northern Atlantic coast of Morocco –the 1755-like tsunami in Asilah test-site Said El Moussaoui1*, Rachid Omira2,3, Mohamed Najib Zaghloul1, Hajar El Talibi4 and Khadija Aboumaria1 Abstract Background: The Atlantic Coast of Morocco is prone to tsunami inundation. Therefore, in this region, earthquake- induced tsunami hazard has been intensively investigated leading to the development of a number of coastal inundation models. However, tsunami vulnerability remains not well understood to the same extent as the hazard. In this study, we use high-resolution numerical modeling, detailed field survey and GIS-based multi-criteria analysis to assess the building tsunami vulnerability and its sensitivity to the tide variations. Asilah located in the northwestern Atlantic coast of Morocco, where the impact from the 1755 tsunami is well documented, constitutes the area of this study. Results: To model the source-to-coast tsunami processes we used the COMCOT (Cornell Multi-grid Coupled Tsunami Model) numerical code on a set of bathymetric/topographic grid layers (640 m, 160 m, 40 m and 10 m resolutions) with an initial sea-surface perturbation generated using Okada’s formulae and assuming an instantaneous seabed displacement. The tsunami source models in this study correspond to four 1755-like earthquake scenarios. Results show that Asilah’s built environment is highly vulnerable to the tsunami impact that can range from 1.99 to 2.46 km2 of inundation area, depending on the source and the tidal level considered.

BOEM should require applicants for permits or other authorizations for geological and geophysical prospecting or scientific research on the U.S. outer continental shelf (“OCS”) related to minerals other than oil, gas, and sulphur (collectively, “mineral prospecting activities”) to identify submarine cables in the vicinity of planned activities and explain how planned mineral prospecting activities will not “unreasonably interfere with” current and planned submarine cables and will ensure compliance with federal laws regarding damage to submarine cables.
