The 23-26 September 2012 UK floods : influence of diabatic processes and upper-level forcing on cyclone developmentHardy, Sam January 2017 (has links)
The thesis comprises two separate journal articles that together form a coherent body of work. In this thesis, the key physical processes responsible for the 23-26 September 2012 UK floods are investigated using a case study approach. The cyclone responsible for the floods developed near the Azores on 20¬-22 September following the interaction between an equatorward-moving potential vorticity (PV) streamer and tropical storm Nadine. Convectively-driven latent heat release associated with the developing cyclone reduced upper-level PV and resulted in the fracture of the PV streamer into a discrete anomaly as the cyclone intensified. In Paper 1, convection-permitting model simulations and diabatic heating rate and PV tendency calculations along trajectories demonstrate that deposition heating strongly reduced upper-level PV in the vicinity of the PV streamer, contributing to its fracture into a discrete anomaly. The cyclone deepened further over the UK on 23-26 September, ahead of a second upper-level PV anomaly. In Paper 2, sensitivity simulations of the storm are presented. PV inversion is used to modify the strength and position of the PV anomaly in the initial conditions and to examine whether the event could have been even more extreme with different upper-level forcing. Results show that quasigeostrophic forcing for ascent ahead of the PV anomaly contributed to the maintenance of the rainfall band over the UK. Counterintuitively however, strengthening the upper-level forcing produced a shallower cyclone with lower rainfall totals. Instead of moving eastward over the UK to interact with the cyclone, the strengthened anomaly rotated cyclonically around a large-scale trough over Iceland, resulting in a fragmented rainfall band. The counterintuitive results suggest that the verifying analysis represents almost the highest-impact scenario possible for this flooding event.

Entre le Royaume de Naples et la France : voyages scientifiques, parcours de formation et exil entre la fin du XVIIIème siècle et la première moitié du XIXème / Between the Kingdom of Naples and France : scientific travel, training courses and exile in the late eighteenth century and the first half of the nineteenth centuryD'Angelo, Fabio 08 May 2015 (has links)
La recherche analyse les rapports scientifiques entre le Sud de l'Italie et la France entre la fin du dix-huitième siècle et la première moitié du dix-neuvième pour ce qui concerne les missions des ingénieurs, des naturalistes et des médecins. En effet, au cours de cette période, dans le royaume de Naples, ce sont principalement ces trois catégories de scientifiques qui ont la possibilité de voyager et de se rendre en France. Mais il convient également de considérer que tant d'autres catégories de personnes et groupes d'hommes ont contribué à nourrir le réseau des relations et des échanges réciproques entre le royaume de Naples et la France. Enfin, il ne faut pas oublier d'ajouter que les relations franco-napolitaines ne se sont pas uniquement construites grâce aux déplacements des hommes. La circulation et la diffusion des livres, sans oublier la discussion devant l'Académie des Sciences des études suivies et faites à Naples ainsi que l'acquisition d'instruments scientifiques auprès des artisans parisiens les plus renommés ont représenté d'autres aspects intéressants des rapports entre la France et le royaume de Naples, qu'il a été indispensable d'approfondir. / The study examines the scientific relationship between the South of Italy and France in the late eighteenth century and the first half of the nineteenth, including missions of engineers, naturalists and physicians. In the kingdom of Naples these three categories of scientists had the opportunity to travel and reach France between the end of the eighteenth century and the first half of the nineteenth century. Moreover, other groups of people contribute to support the network of relations and exchanges between the kingdom of Naples and France.Finally, the relationships Franco-Neapolitan were built not only thanks to the movement of people. The circulation of books, as well as discussion about the studies of the Académie des sciences in Naples and the purchase of scientific instruments at the most famous Parisian artisans represented other interesting aspects of the relationship between France and the kingdom Naples, which has been needful to deepen.

Ageing well in the community : social representations of well-being promotion in later lifeMedeiros, Bruno January 2017 (has links)
This thesis is a social psychological study on ideas of well-being in later life by older adults, staff members, and volunteers involved in community support. Social representations theory constitutes the theoretical lens through which social constructions of well-being are examined. This project constitutes an ethnography of how groups represent wellness in later life, and how they evaluate receiving and giving support. Three day centres and a scheme of home visits of a voluntary organisation in the United Kingdom were the main sites of this study. Participant observation and 54 in-depth interviews were the main data sources. The study shows that both clients and practitioners understand wellness in later life as the result of an active, independent, and gainful living. This idea was shared amongst all groups in both settings, indicating the prevalence of a hegemonic view of wellness. This view is present in public understandings and professional discourse on ageing well. Nevertheless, clients and practitioners also challenged this ideology of wellness by representing ageing both as experience of gains (e.g. vitality and autonomy) and limitations (e.g. frailty and social isolation). These views are represented via two binary oppositional themes: activity-passivity and independence dependence. Moreover, clients and practitioners highlight the importance of health, adaptation, and relationships of support to attain well-being in old age. The concept of canonic themata and the evidence of a complex representational field around the theme of ageing constitute important empirical insights with which to understand the sharedness of well-being amongst all groups. Differences were observed in the way in which clients and practitioners position themselves – the first groups as receivers of help, whereas the second one as providers of care. Moreover, clients represent themselves as active and independent despite being recipients of support. In negotiating their views of independence, they preserve a positive sense of identity and accept help from others. Cognitive polyphasia also characterises thinking about well-being: physical, psychological, social, and material elements interact to promote wellness. The study also sheds light on how communities of support make sense of their practices. The concept of representational project offered a rich theoretical insight into how groups represent well-being promotion in the charity. Both clients and practitioners represent well-being promotion as actions to preserve functionality and participation in the community. Therefore, two set of actions were mentioned in both settings: socio-emotive and practical support. Implications for well-being policies and community support were addressed.

Economic relations between the Third Reich and Yugoslavia, 1933-1941Hadzi-Jovancic, Perica January 2018 (has links)
This thesis focuses on economic relations between the Third Reich and Yugoslavia before the German attack in April 1941. It questions the conventional wisdom, according to which economic relations served mainly as a tool of German foreign policy towards Yugoslavia. Instead, it aims to place mutual economic relations within both the broader context of the German economic and financial plans and policies in the 1930s, and within the already existing economic and trading ties between the two countries, as they had been developing since the 1920s. Before 1936, economic relations between Yugoslavia and Germany are observed from the context of the polycratic character of the Third Reich’s executive, which enabled various economic policies, pursued by different levels of authority such as the Foreign Ministry, Economic Ministry, Food and Agriculture Ministry, the Reichsbank, etc. to exist alongside each other. After 1936, Yugoslav-German economic relations increasingly functioned within the framework of the German Four-Year-Plan. Yugoslavia’s mineral riches were of importance for German rearmament and, particularly after the Anschluss and the creation of the Bohemian Protectorate, Yugoslavia found itself increasingly dependent on trade with Germany. At the same time, the German market and exports were necessary for the process of Yugoslavia’s industrialisation, which had gathered momentum since the mid-1930s. This was however in many aspects inconsistent with the German long-term imperialist ambitions in South-Eastern Europe. This dissertation concludes that German economic policy towards Yugoslavia failed. Also, that contrary to the traditional view in historiography and despite its economic dependency on Germany, Yugoslavia maintained its political agency. It was international political developments beyond Yugoslavia’s control which eventually decreased Belgrade’s political maneuverability and forced the government in Belgrade to become more receptive towards German demands, particularly after the fall of France in June 1940.
