Plant names are the key to communicating and managing information about plants. This paper considers how providers of high quality technical plant name information can better meet the requirements non-botanical audiences who also rely on plant names for elements of their work. The International Plant Name Index, World Checklist of Selected Plant Families and The Plant List are used as examples …
Digital survey techniques allow for capturing and representing the object’s shape under investigation, managing both the level of detail and the metrological accuracy. In archaeological and architectural research, a reality-based 3D model may support the implementation of geometric and metrological studies. Indeed, the geometric interpretation of the survey data allows the comprehension of…
The chapter focuses on 'lean platforms' such as Airbnb, Uber, Flixbus and illustrates their spatialities in our society.
The chapter analyzes the geography of 'open platforms' such as Wikipedia, Openstreetmap, Blockchain
Its identification and enumeration were carried out using the Utermöhl method. 92 taxa have been inventoried along the study area belonging to five groups. Diatoms dominate qualitatively and quantitatively (85.5 %) the total microalgal population during this pe

Faster computers, LCD based mobiles, nanoparticles for UV absorption in suntan lotions are just few of many examples where nanotechnology plays a fundamental role. The merit of this is mainly in the advance of the fabrication methods. Present techniques such as Focused Ion Beam (FIB) lithography guarantee a resolution of less than 10 nanometers which is about five times more precise than te…
The photocatalytic properties of titanium dioxide have been widely studied over recent decades since the discovery of water photolysis by TiO2 electrodes in 1972. Titanium dioxide has three main crystal polymorphs; anatase, rutile and brookite and rutile is the most common as the metastable polymorph. Each polymorph has different band gap positions. Anatase’s band gap is 3.2 eV, higher …
Over 500 clay sealings from the Hittite Empire Period were retrieved in a LB II stratum of Area C East in the Lower Palace area (excavations seasons 2017-2021). 301 clay sealings were sealed 493 times by over 50 different seals belonging to c. 35 officials. In this paper, philological comments will be made about the officials of the relevant archive whose names and/ or titles/professions ar…
This study is part of a project aimed at supporting the weaknesses of young people who are experiencing, or are at risk of reaching, NEET condition (Not in Education, Employment or Training; aged between 15 and 29 or 34, according to different definitions). The first signs of the extreme discomfort caused by Neet condition were sought by investigating signs of weakness in high school students i…
