  • Algeciras En La Encrucijada De La Batalla Del Estrecho (Siglos Xiii Y Xiv)
    ALGECIRAS EN LA ENCRUCIJADA DE LA BATALLA DEL ESTRECHO (SIGLOS XIII Y XIV) Por MANUEL GONZÁLEZ JIMÉNEZ En el presente año se conmemoran dos importantes cente- narios: el de la batalla de las Navas de Tolosa (1212) y el inicio del reinado de Alfonso XI, bisnieto de Alfonso X el Sabio e hijo de Fernando IV “el Emplazado”. Alfonso XI accedió al trono en 1312, apenas con dos años de edad. Tras una larga y agitada minoría, en 1325 se anticiparía su mayoría de edad. Tenía apenas catorce años. A pesar de ello, protagonizó uno de los reinados más brillantes de la Baja Edad Media. Supo pacificar el reino y dotarlo de leyes nuevas y, por si fuera poco, proseguir con éxito la reconquista, reiniciando así el enfrentamiento por el control de la orilla europea del Estrecho de Gibraltar, tema que los histo- riadores llamamos desde hace tiempo la “batalla del Estrecho”. Vamos a tratar brevemente de este asunto que culminaría con la conquista de Algeciras que fue, junto con la de Tarifa, conquista- da en 1292, la llave del acceso a la Península. LA CRUZADA DE ALFONSO X CONTRA ÁFRICA Al acceder al trono Alfonso X el 1º de junio de 1252, todo lo que quedaba de al-Andalus estaba sometido por tributo al rey de Castilla. Era tiempo de pensar en el encargo que su padre Fernando III le hiciera en su lecho de muerte: proseguir la guerra contra los musulmanes en África. Se trataba de un proyecto, aca- riciado por el Santo Rey, como nos informa la Primera Crónica 453 454 MANUEL GONZÁLEZ JIMÉNEZ General.

  • New Air Travel Opportunities for Ceuta, a Spanish Remoter Region in Northern Africa, Generated by Air Transport Liberalisation in Neighbouring Morocco
    Disciplines Andreas Papathedorou | University of West London, UK Ioulia Poulaki | University of West London, UK OPEN SKIES New air travel opportunities for Ceuta, a Spanish remoter region in Northern Africa, generated by air transport liberalisation in neighbouring Morocco. Spatial discontinuity and lack of seamless transport connections between Ceuta and the Spanish mainland pose significant accessibility challenges for the Spanish exclave 16 New Vistas • Volume 2 Issue 1 • www.uwl.ac.uk • © University of West London Article Open Skies | Author Andreas Papathedorou and Ioulia Poulaki An integrated intermodal transport system, with seamless connections of different public transport modes, may positively affect an airport enhancement of its catchment area ransport in remote regions of the world Remoter regions around the world are usually denied sufficient T surface transport services to metropolitan centres. This may be the result of a fragmented pattern in physical geography (e.g. islands separated from the mainland by sea), which renders surface transport impossible; and/ or the outcome of socio-political geography friction (e.g. disputed areas close to the frontier of neighbouring countries) which makes investment in expensive surface transport infrastructure very unappealing. For these reasons, remoter regions and their local societies depend heavily on air transport to ensure accessibility and economic and cultural connectivity to the wider world. Local airports provide the necessary means for airlines to operate their services; in certain cases, however, such airports may be located in a neighbouring country thus raising the levels of complexity in the transport system. Studying, therefore, the range of an airport’s catchment area becomes of great significance.

[email protected] Received: November 04rd, 2014. Received in revised form: June 12th, 2015. Accepted: December 10th, 2015. Abstract The prediction of freight congestion (cargo peaks) is an important tool for decision making and it is this paper’s main object of study. Forecasting freight flows can be a useful tool for the whole logistics chain. In this work, a complete methodology is presented in order to obtain the best model to predict freight congestion situations at ports. The prediction is modeled as a classification problem and different approaches are tested (k-Nearest Neighbors, Bayes classifier and Artificial Neural Networks). A panel of different experts (post–hoc methods of Friedman test) has been developed in order to select the best model. The proposed methodology is applied in the Strait of Gibraltar’s logistics hub with a study case being undertaken in Port of Algeciras Bay. The results obtained reveal the efficiency of the presented models that can be applied to improve daily operations planning.

Gibraltar became British in 1704 and is a self-governing territory of the United Kingdom which covers 6.5 square kilometers, including the port and harbour. It is believed that Gibraltar has been used as a harbour by seafarers for thousands of years with evidence dating back at least three millennia to Phoenician times; however up until the late 19th Century it provided little shelter for vessels. Refer to Figure 1 which shows the coast line along the western side of Gibraltar with the first structure known as the ‘Old Mole’ on the northern end of the town. Refer to figure 1 below. Location of the ‘Old Mole’ N The Old Mole as 1770 Figure 1 Showing the harbour with the first harbour structure, the ‘Old Mole’ and the structure in detail as in 1770. The Old Mole image has been kindly reproduced with permission from the Gibraltar Museum. HRPP577 1 Bernard Bonfiglio, Doug Cresswell, Dr Darren Fa, Dr Geraldine Finlayson, Christopher Tovell The modern Port of Gibraltar occupies a uniquely important strategic location, demonstrated by the many naval battles fought at and for the peninsula.

  • First Record of Beaching Events for a Calycophoran Siphonophore: Abylopsis Tetragona (Otto, 1823) at the Strait of Gibraltar
    Marine Biodiversity https://doi.org/10.1007/s12526-018-0926-1 SHORT COMMUNICATION First record of beaching events for a caLycophoran siphonophore: Abylopsis tetragona (Otto, 1823) at the Strait of GibraLtar Elena Guerrero1 & Karen Kienberger2 & Ana ViLLaescusa 3 & Josep-Maria GiLi1 & GabrieL Navarro2 & Laura Prieto 2 Received: 26 March 2018 / Revised: 2 August 2018 / Accepted: 8 October 2018 # Senckenberg GeseLLschaft für Naturforschung 2018 Abstract Two beaching events of the calycophoran siphonophore Abylopsis tetragona (Otto, 1823) were observed in two different areas of the Strait of Gibraltar during the cold season. The first was discovered on November 2014, on Getares Beach (Algeciras Bay, Mediterranean part of the Strait of Gibraltar), where more than 700 colonies were found deposited along the tideline. The second event was discovered on January 2015, on Paloma Baja Beach (Tarifa, Atlantic part of the Strait of Gibraltar) where an average density of 170 colonies m−2 was spread along the seashore. Both events seemed to be promoted by strong easterly winds, preceded by upwelling episodes that may have concentrated high densities of the siphonophore in superficial layers. This study represents the first report of a calycophoran siphonophore mass stranding. The records were made thanks to citizen science and jellyfish outreach at secondary schools (PERSEUS@school initiative), illustrating the importance of citizen science projects in observing natural phenomena. We consider the monitoring and recording of cnidarian stranding events especially important in highly productive and biologically active areas such as the Strait of Gibraltar. Keywords Mass stranding . Gelatinous zooplankton . Citizen science . Outreach . Secondary schools Introduction abundant epipelagic siphonophore inhabitant of temperate and warm waters of the Atlantic, Pacific and Indican oceans Siphonophores are long pelagic colonial hydrozoans and the Mediterranean Sea (Alvariño 1971; Mapstone 2014).
