Note Sur Les Terrains De Transport
NOTE SUR LES TERRAINS DE TRANSPORT DES ENVIRONS DE THONON-LES-BA1NS (HAUTE-SAVOIE) Avec une planche et une carte Par M. Ch. JACOB, Préparateur de Géologie à la Faculté des Sciences. Les collines et les plateaux qui s'élèvent près de Thonon et d'Évian- Ies-Bains, du lac de Genève aux premiers chaînons des montagnes du Ghablais, sont presque exclusivement constitués par des formations de transport, dont le beau développement et la complexité ont depuis longtemps attiré l'attention des géologues suisses et français. En ne citant que les principales recherches dont ces terrains ont fait l'objet, on peut mentionner les travaux d'Alphonse Favre4, qui ont apporté à leur connaissance la plus importante contribution, les notes de MM. Renevier 2, Delebecque3, Schardt 4 et tout récemment encore 1 Rech. géol. dans les parties de la Savoie, du Piémont et de la Saisse voisines du Mont-Blanc, Genève, 1867, t.

Les différents auteurs ont formulé diverses hypothèses au sujet du groupement à adopter pour les terrasses des environs de Thonon et de l'âge qu'il faut leur attribuer. Nous n'avons pas l'intention d'étudier ici toutes les opinions émises. -

Late Spring Characterization of Different Coastal Areas of the Adriatic Sea
ISSN: 0001-5113 ACTA ADRIAT., ORIGINAL SCIENTIFIC PAPER AADRAY 56(1): 27 - 46, 2015 Late spring characterization of different coastal areas of the Adriatic Sea Mauro MARINI1*, Alessandra CAMPANELLI1, Mitat SANXHAKU2, Zoran KLJAJIĆ3, Mattia BETTI1 and Federica GRILLI1 1 Institute of Marine Science-CNR, Largo Fiera della Pesca, 2, Ancona, Italy 2 Institute of Geosciences, Energy, Water and Environment, Tirana, Albania 3Institute of Marine Biology Kotor, Montenegro *Corresponding author, e -mail: [email protected]. The objective of this study is to analyze the physical and chemical characteristics of three coastal zones of the Adriatic Sea during late spring, and to identify similarities and differences among the zones. The trophic status of the Southeastern Adriatic-Sea, dominated by the discharge from the Buna/Bojana river delta watersheds, is compared with two other Adriatic regions: the Northwestern Adriatic Sea and the Southwestern Adriatic Sea (Gulf of Manfredonia); the first is dominated by the Po River freshwater discharge and the second is one of the most productive areas of the Southwestern Adriatic. The areas are influenced by two main Adriatic surface currents: the Eastern Adriatic Current (EAC) that flows north-westward, and the Western Adriatic Current (WAC) that flows south-eastward. The measurements of temperature, salinity, fluorescence, oxygen, nutrients and chlorophyll a in the three areas were collected and compared. The areas showed similar physical and bio-chemical characteristics, despite the Northern Adriatic is impacted by the Po River runoff and the WAC carries out along the Western Adriatic water rich of nutrients from the northern Italian rivers. The area affected by the Po River discharge showed maximum chlorophyll and nitrogen concentrations within the river plume. -

Music and Traditions of Thrace (Greece): a Trans-Cultural Teaching Tool 1
MUSIC AND TRADITIONS OF THRACE (GREECE): A TRANS-CULTURAL TEACHING TOOL 1 Kalliopi Stiga 2 Evangelia Kopsalidou 3 Abstract: The geopolitical location as well as the historical itinerary of Greece into time turned the country into a meeting place of the European, the Northern African and the Middle-Eastern cultures. Fables, beliefs and religious ceremonies, linguistic elements, traditional dances and music of different regions of Hellenic space testify this cultural convergence. One of these regions is Thrace. The aim of this paper is firstly, to deal with the music and the dances of Thrace and to highlight through them both the Balkan and the middle-eastern influence. Secondly, through a listing of music lessons that we have realized over the last years, in schools and universities of modern Thrace, we are going to prove if music is or not a useful communication tool – an international language – for pupils and students in Thrace. Finally, we will study the influence of these different “traditions” on pupils and students’ behavior. Key words: Thrace; music; dances; multi-cultural influence; national identity; trans-cultural teaching Resumo: A localização geopolítica, bem como o itinerário histórico da Grécia através do tempo, transformou o país num lugar de encontro das culturas europeias, norte-africanas e do Médio Oriente. Fábulas, crenças e cerimónias religiosas, elementos linguísticos, danças tradicionais e a música das diferentes regiões do espaço helénico são testemunho desta convergência cultural. Uma destas regiões é a Trácia. O objectivo deste artigo é, em primeiro lugar, tratar da música e das danças da Trácia e destacar através delas as influências tanto dos Balcãs como do Médio Oriente. -
