Geological Heritage has very diverse elements, both for its intrinsic nature and for its social and scientific significance. These elements have a scientific dimension (stratigraphic, geomorphological, lithological, paleontological, etc.) and a landscape dimension, both with implications for territorial management. In territorial management and planning, it is essential to carry out inventory and cataloging of places of natural and social interest to establish a comprehensive policy. The identification and valuation of the geological and biological heritage, and their interaction in the landscape should favor the conservation and preservation of this natural and historical heritage. Sustainable development implies rational use that prevents the degradation or loss of these unique environments of the natural environment as well as a dissemination and awareness of landscape resources for a better understanding and enjoyment, integrating activities of both environmental education and nature tourism.
This Research Topic is a continuation of the successful topic launched in Veterinary Infectious Diseases, https://www.frontiersin.org/research-topics/13197/zoonotic-diseases-their-hosts-and-vectors The field of zoonotic parasitic diseases, which can be transmitted between animals and humans, is currently experiencing significant advancements. These diseases, caused by viruses, bacteria, parasites, and fungi, vary widely in their symptoms and severity, with some leading to severe illness or death. The transmission of these parasites can occur through various sources, including food, domestic and wild animals, and vectors. However, the detection, treatment, and control of these diseases are of...
Ferns, collectively, represent an ancient species of vascular plant which has a direct connection to the beginning of life on Earth. Today they are valued for their ornamental appeal, environmental benefit or as sources of health benefiting metabolites. Current pteridology, the study of fern, encompasses a wide range of research activities including, but not limited to, plant physiology, stress tolerance, genetics and genomics. The goal of this book is to compile the most relevant research done with ferns during the last decade. It is organized into four parts: I, Biology and Biotechnology; II, Evolution and Conservation; III, Metabolism and Genetic Resources, and IV, Environment. Each section reveals the utilization of ferns as a tool to explore challenges unique to plant development and adaptation. This project represents our collective effort to raise the awareness of ferns as a model system to study higher plant functions. Among the distinctive features of our proposed book are: (i) a wide range of topics with contributing researchers from all around the world, and (ii) recent advances of theoretic and applied knowledge with implications to crop species of economic value.

Este libro cubre las elecciones de 1952 al 1964, desde el dominio maximo del PPD, en 1952, hasta el primer relevo de gobernadores, aunque del mismo partido, en 1964. Cubre el ascenso del movimiento Estadista y la caida del movimiento Independentista. This book covers the elections held in Puerto Rico between 1952 and 1964. That period saw the highest point in the dominance by the Popular Party; and it also saw the fall and rebirth of the pro-Statehood movement (from 12.87%% in '52 to 34.8%% in '64), coupled with the rise and fall of the pro-Independence movement (from 18.98%% in '52 to 2.81%% in '64).
Este trabajo constituye una contribución al conocimiento de la representación política parlamentaria, un análisis que pretende desbordar los límites de la exposición biográfica para convertirse en una aportación a la historia de la región castellanomanchega y del Estado en su conjunto. Desde este punto de vista, el objetivo de esta investigación se ha centrado en examinar en todos sus matices, humanos y políticos, al colectivo compuesto por los diputados regionales presentes en las Cortes de Castilla-La Mancha desde 1983 a 2019. Se contienen aquí las biografías de 301 representantes, aquellos que por su condición de diputados autonómicos han ejercido un protagonismo de especial relevancia en el afianzamiento y el desarrollo del autogobierno político en la Comunidad Autónoma de Castilla-La Mancha. Se configura, por tanto, como un análisis social de la política a través de algunos de sus más importantes actores, tomando como opción metodológica el estudio biográfico y prosopográfico. Una orientación que ubica esta obra en las corrientes actuales de los estudios históricos y en el interés de la sociedad por la vida de las personas.
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
