Abstract:

The circulation in St Helena Bay and the variability of the retention of the Bay are investigated using seasonal climatologies of the Regional Ocean Modelling System (ROMS). While retention has been studied biologically, the seasonality of the hydrodynamics contributing to the retention have received less attention. In this study we explore how the sea temperature, atmospheric forcing and currents contribute to the seasonal recirculation dynamics in St Helena Bay. Ichthyop, a lagrangian particle tracking method is used to study the spatial variations of local retention rates, with the particle

Abstract:

The extrusive and intrusive members of the St. Helena rock suite (SHRS) are formed in an intra-oceanic plate tectonic setting as part of two shield volcanoes. The SHRS vary from picrobasalts to phonofites. The former represent mantle derived melts, whereas the remainder of the suite have undergone differing degrees of crystal fractionation. A stratigraphic framework is developed to illustrate temporal geochemical variations over 2 Ma of subaerial activity. This is accomplished in conjunction with a detailed field study of the SHRS by Baker(1968) which is shown to be largely accurate. It is dem

Abstract:

Oceanic islands contribute significantly to global biodiversity due to the high levels of endemism they exhibit. Many island species have, however, become extinct following the arrival of humans, and many others remain threatened. This thesis focuses on one of these threatened island species; the St. Helena Plover, Charadrius sanctaehelenae. The objectives of my PhD were threefold: to understand the current status of the St. Helena Plover, to investigate aspects of its environment that may threaten its persistence, and to compare conservation options. Observational data were used to understand

St Helena is an isolated volcanic island (lat. 15° 56'S, long. 5°42'W) in the South Atlantic Ocean. The endemic flora of St Helena, comprised of 49 plant species, is considered to be one of the most threatened in the world. This thesis investigates the evolution and conservation of two threatened groups of plants endemic to St Helena: i) trees in the genera Commidendrum and Melanodehdron (Asteraceae) and ii) epiphytic and terrestrial elaphoglossoid ferns in the genera Elaphoglossum and Microstaphyla (Lomariopsidaceae)Chapter two investigates species relationships of Commidendrum and Melanodend

Abstract:

This thesis deals with the history of the St Helena Bay inshore fisheries, 1856-1956. Fishing has long been neglected by social and economic historians and the myths propagated by company and popular writers still hold sway. The thesis challenges these by situating commercial fishing at St Helena Bay in the context of changing regional, national and international economies and showing how it was shaped and conditioned by the struggle for ownership of the marine resource between labour and capital, mediated by the state. The thesis is organised chronologically into three epochs. In each the foc

During this period, Saint Dominic and his helpers were threatened and abused for challenging heresy and for reconverting former heretics to Christianity.

Seriation, i.e., finding a linear order for a set of objects given data and a loss or merit function, is a basic problem in data analysis. Caused by the problem's combinatorial nature, it is hard to solve for all but very small sets. Nevertheless, both exact solution methods and heuristics are available. In this paper we present the package seriation which provides the infrastructure for seriation with R. The infrastructure comprises data structures to represent linear orders as permutation vectors, a wide array of seriation methods using a consistent interface, a method to calculate the value

Abstract:

Em Portugal e Castela, entre fins do século XV e ao longo do século XVI, importantes espaços da monarquia foram ocupados pela Ordem de São Jerônimo. A presente tese ocupa-se de tratar dos incentivos dos monarcas desses dois reinos às casas jerônimas como parte da propaganda régia. Em especial trataremos dos dois monastérios mais favorecidos pelas monarquias: Santa Maria de Belém e San Lorenzo El Real del Escorial. Os dois edifícios foram construídos por iniciativa real, em momentos de alargamento do poderia desses reinos em outros continentes e em contextos em que a possibilidade de união dos

Abstract:

Parmi les réformes du concile de Trente, figure celle des ordres religieux incités à s'organiser en congrégations. Y figure aussi l'invitation à traduire dans l'architecture et le décor des églises, l'expression de la foi catholique réaffirmée. Tout cela induit de nouvelles formes architecturales ou de nouveaux aménagements liturgiques qui s'accompagnent dans le cas des ordres religieux, d'une réorganisation spatiale des monastères. Dans ce que le professeur Taveneaux a défini comme une dorsale catholique, la Lorraine tient une place particulière, par son histoire déjà, par son emplacement dan

Abstract:

Syon Abbey, established as the first Birgittine monastery in England in 1415, quite soon became a powerful institution within the order. Although often asserting their own conceptions of the Rule, the English Birgittines still sought the advice of Vadstena, their mother house, when it came to certain important matters concerning monastic life. The present work contains editions of two Latin texts: Responsiones, a document consisting of 175 questions and answers on the Birgittine Rule and daily life in the monastery, and Collacio, a sermon reflecting similar matters. The first part of the Respo

Abstract:

This dissertation examines the intersection of spiritual values and material life at Syon Abbey, a wealthy Brigittine double monastery in late medieval England. As an institution it was, paradoxically, directed primarily toward an evangelical goal, while being focused on contemplative women who were strictly enclosed. In this dissertation, I assert that this apparent contradiction was resolved through a high degree of collaboration between the abbey’s religious women and men. I argue that Brigittine monasticism, and that of Syon in particular, was uniquely attuned to metaphors and meanings of

Ces ouvrages constituent le corpus principal de cette thèse dont l’objectif est d’en interroger le contenu au regard de l’histoire de l’Ordre cistercien, mais aussi de l’évolution du chant ecclésiastique.

Abstract:

Normalformen drücken semantische Eigenschaften einer Logik durch syntaktische Restriktionen aus. Sie ermöglichen es Algorithmen, Grenzen der Ausdrucksstärke einer Logik auszunutzen. Ein Beispiel ist die Lokalität der Logik erster Stufe (FO), die impliziert, dass Graph-Eigenschaften wie Erreichbarkeit oder Zusammenhang nicht FO-definierbar sind. Gaifman-Normalformen drücken die Bedeutung einer FO-Formel als Boolesche Kombination lokaler Eigenschaften aus. Sie haben eine wichtige Rolle in Model-Checking Algorithmen für Klassen dünn besetzter Graphen, deren Laufzeit durch die Größe der auszuwert
