La finalitat del projecte és la de dinamitzar turísticament la zona interior de la comarca del Baix Camp en base a la ordenació i adequació de les seves principals rieres (les rieres de Riudoms o de Maspujols, d'Alforja o de les Borges i de Riudecanyes i el riu de Llastres) per tal de convertir-les en un atractiu turístic, cultural i mediambiental que impulsi, estimuli i faciliti l’arribada de turistes a aquests municipis de segona línia de mar.

    Servei Meteorològic de Catalunya INFORME DE LA PRECIPITACIÓ MESURADA A CATALUNYA DURANT L’ANY PLUVIOMÈTRIC 2004-2005 Àrea de Climatologia - Servei Meteorològic de Catalunya 1. INTRODUCCIÓ En parlar de precipitació, i quan es vol fer el balanç de reserves hídriques del territori, generalment es tria l’anomenat any pluviomètric o any hidrològic, que correspon al període comprès entre el dia 1 de setembre d’un any i el dia 31 d’agost de l’any següent. Aquest informe té com a objectiu fer un resum, a partir de les dades de les estacions automàtiques gestionades pel Servei Meteorològic de Catalunya, de la precipitació recollida al país entre el setembre de 2004 i l’agost de 2005, tant de les quantitats absolutes enregistrades com de la comparació d’aquestes quantitats amb els valors mitjans climàtics i dels episodis pluviomètrics més importants. Els valors mitjans climàtics s’han obtingut a partir de les dades de l’Atles Climàtic Digital de Catalunya (Ninyerola et al., 2001)1. Igualment, també s’aprofita aquest informe per fer un resum de la precipitació estacional enregistrada, entenent la tardor com els mesos de setembre, octubre i novembre, l’hivern com els mesos de desembre, gener i febrer, la primavera comprèn els mesos de març, abril i maig, i l’estiu correspon als mesos de juny, juliol i agost. Per acabar, cal esmentar que al llarg de tot l’informe s’expressen les quantitats de precipitació en mil·límetres (mm), unitat equivalent a litres per metre quadrat. 2. Precipitació acumulada durant l’any pluviomètric 2004-2005 A diferència de la tendència apuntada en els darrers quatre anys pluviomètrics, en els que els valors de pluja acumulada foren iguals o per damunt de la mitjana, enguany s’han enregistrat valors clarament inferiors.

  • Effects of Social Media on Enotourism. Two Cases Study: Okanagan Valley (Canada) and Somontano (Spain)

Two territories of similar extension and with historical coincidences in their development have been selected: the Okanagan Valley, Canada, and the region of Somontano, Spain. Methodologically, an analysis of the content on Twitter has been performed, collecting 1377 tweets. The conclusion is that wineries create sentimental and experiential links with the users, avoiding commercial communications. Specifically, Okanagan wineries establish a relevant conversation network on Twitter based on the high percentage of responses, which is 31.3%, but this is not so in the case of Somontano, which is 12.8%. The tourist attractions most used to create a bond are the wine landscape and the gastronomy in the case of both territories. The tourism sustainability variable remains a minor matter in the emission of messages on Twitter. Keywords: social network analysis; sustainable tourism; web 2.0; enotourism; Twitter; Somontano wines; Okanagan Valley wines; wines of British Columbia 1.

  • Móra D'ebre Castillo De Móra
    432 / MÓRA D’EBRE MÓRA D’EBRE La villa de Móra d’Ebre, cabeza municipal y capital de la comarca de la Ribera d’Ebre, se asienta en el margen derecho del río Ebro, en el lugar de la cubeta o depresión de Móra. Dista 60 km de la capital provincial, Tarragona, que se recorren a través de la T-11 y la N-420 que conduce hasta Gandesa. Limita al Norte con Ascó, al Este con Móra la Nova, al Sur con Tivissa, Benissanet y Corbera d’Ebre, y al Oeste con la Fatarella. La singularidad geográfica del lugar, en la llanura fluvial del Ebro, favoreció la existencia de asentamientos estables desde época ibérica. En este sentido, los restos localizados en torno al calvario, en las proximidades del castillo, son suficientes para suponer la existencia de unoppidum, ocupado como mínimo hasta la segunda mitad del siglo II o el siglo I a.C. Por otro lado, los vestigios de la villa romana de Els Emportells, situada cerca del río, en el camino de Les Sénies, indican la presencia de un asentamiento de época romana. Las referencias históricas acerca de la villa de Móra son escasas y remontan al siglo XII. Tras la reconquista, en el año 1153 Arbert de Castellvell tomó posesión de la villa, situada en los lími- tes del marquesado de Siurana. Años más tarde, en 1174, el rey Alfonso II el Casto y Guillem de Castellvell, firmaron un acuerdo en virtud del cualIldefonsus, Dei gracia rex Aragonensis, comes Barchi- nonensis et marchio Provincie entregaba a este último el castrum de Móra, junto con el castillo de Tivissa y las fortalezas de Garcia y Marçà.
