Abessinien und Spanien: Kriege und Erinnerung = Dall’Abissinia alla Spagna: guerre e memoria 1935-1939
(2016)Tema del fascicolo sono le esperienze dei combattenti di Alto Adige/Südtirol, Trentino e Tirolo alle guerre fasciste in Abissinia e in Spagna, sia di coloro che combatterono dalla parte del regime, sia dei volontari ... -
A Comparison of the Signal from Diverse Optical Sensors for Monitoring Alpine Grassland Dynamics
(MDPI, 2019)Grasslands cover up to 40% of the mountain areas globally and 23% of the European Alps and affect numerous key ecological processes. An increasing number of optical sensors offer a great opportunity to monitor and address ... -
Resistance and tolerance to mixed-nematode infections in chicken genotypes with extremely different growth rates
(2019)Fast growing broilers are less able to cope with fitness related challenges. As the allocation of metabolic resources may be traded off between performance and defence functions in parasitized hosts, we hypothesized that ... -
Are automated sensors a reliable tool to estimate behavioural activities in grazing beef cattle?
(2019)The use of automated sensors, that record feeding and locomotion behaviour in livestock, become more and more prominent, for example for the early detection of diseases in dairy cows. Their application may be also significant ... -
Dissimilarity functions for copula-based hierarchical clustering of continuous variables
(LMU Munich, 2019)We introduce and formalize a copula-based notion of dissimilarity between continuous random variables. Such a concept aims at detecting rank-invariant dependence properties among random variables and, as such, it will be ... -
Carbon balance and soil carbon input in a poplar short rotation coppice plantation as affected by nitrogen and wood ash application
(Springer Netherlands, 2019)The increasing importance of short rotation coppice (SRC) plantations for bioenergy production makes it crucial to evaluate their carbon (C) sink potential and to understand which sustainable practices could increase ... -
Reconceptualising Citizenship Education towards the Global, the Political, and the Critical: Challenges and Perspectives in a Province in Northern Italy
(Routledge, 2019)The notion of fostering citizenship, particularly in young people, is common in education theory literature and in popular discourse. Schools are seen as key social institutions for the cultivation of citizens. Hence policy ... -
Prediction of music pairwise preferences from facial expressions
(ACM, 2019)Users of a recommender system may be requested to express their preferences about items either with evaluations of items (e.g. a rating) or with comparisons of item pairs. In this work we focus on the acquisition of pairwise ... -
Statistical Tools for Quality Management
(Emerald Publishing Limited, 2019)Companies are nowadays called to manage increasingly larger and more complex quantities of data. Making good predictions and estimating a possible risky situation in advance is therefore more important than ever. The ... -

Socio-economic, political, and institutional sustainability of Agroforestry in Alta Verapaz, Guatemala
(2019)Promoting sustainable agricultural practices such as agroforestry (AF) could improve long-term productivity, enhance a sustainable rural livelihood and reduce pressure on natural resources and ecosystems in the tropics. ... -
Hydroclimatic seasonality recorded by tree ring δ18O signature across a Himalayan altitudinal transect
(2019)Water stable isotope ratios of precipitation predominantly reflect moisture source and precipitation intensity. Trees can incorporate and store the isotopic signals into annual tree-ring cellulose records, permitting ... -
Identifying Innovative Idea Proposals with Topic Models—A Case Study from SPA Tourism
(Springer, 2019)This chapter builds on a dataset where online users of a spa platform participated in an online idea contest providing free-text descriptions of their proposals for spa services. A panel of domain experts annotated these ... -
Joint and conditional dependence modelling of district heating demand and weather conditions: a copula-based approach
(LMU Munich, 2019)We analyze the dependence relationship between district heating demand and weather conditions, such as outdoor temperature and solar radiation, through copula function. Copula function makes it possible to represent complex ... -
Advanced Automation for SMEs in the I4.0 Revolution: Engineering Education and Employees Training in the Smart Mini Factory Laboratory
(IEEE, 2019)Industry 4.0 is currently changing the shop- floor of many large manufacturing companies. Small and medium-sized enterprises are also increasingly concerned with the introduction of Industry 4.0 technologies and methods. ... -
Assessment of welfare indicators in dairy farms offering pasture at differing levels
(2019)In terms of animal welfare, farming systems of dairy cows are perceived positively by consumers when compared to pigs or poultry. A main reason is that the majority of consumers associate dairy farming with pasture, which ... -
A model of Requirements Engineering in Software Startups
(2019)Context: Over the past 20 years, software startups have created many products that have changed human life. Since these companies are creating brand-new products or services, requirements are difficult to gather and highly ... -
Prospective memory monitoring and aftereffects of deactivated intentions across the lifespan
(2020)The purpose of this study was to compare, across the lifespan, different costs that can occur in a prospective memory task. Specifically, we were interested in investigating the costs of responding to both activated (i.e., ... -
Flexible-link multibody system eigenvalue analysis parameterized with respect to rigid-body motion
(MDPI AG, 2019)The dynamics of flexible multibody systems (FMBSs) is governed by ordinary differential equations or differential-algebraic equations, depending on the modeling approach chosen. In both the cases, the resulting models are ... -
Morphological root responses and molecular regulation of cation transporters are differently affected by copper toxicity and cropping system depending on the grapevine rootstock genotype
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2019)The high copper (Cu) concentration in vineyard soils causes the increase of Cu toxicity symptoms in young grapevines. Recently, intercropping of grapevine and oat was shown to reduce Cu toxicity effects, modulating the ...
