The analysis of archeobacteria, the oldest organisms in our planet, can contribute to discovering the temperatures seas and lakes had thousands of years ago and reconstructing the Earth's climate history. ICTA researchers have improved the existing method for analyzing them, by reducing the time of...
A research group of the UAB Institute of Neurosciencie have studied, in rats, the consequences of the injury of a brainstem zone in the capacity of adaptation to new cognitive demands. The outputs obtained may help to design future strategis to reduce certain...
Several technologies have shown their potential for treating industrial effluents. Nearly all of them are based on the oxidation of organic pollutants, which are converted into carbon dioxide and water (complete mineralisation) or into harmless intermediate products, more suitable for...
The relocation of geomagnetic data across distances of hundreds of kilometers and assuming a dipolar geomagnetic field is a common practice in archaeomagnetism. The errors due to this practice are rarely taken into account. This work analyses the time and space distribution of these...
If there is noise, we can’t understand what we hear. In the same way, a noisy image can make it very difficult for us to recognise what we are seeing. Fortunately, techniques exist to restore noisy images so that they can be seen perfectly clearly. In this article a new restoration technique is...
