A palaeobiological approach to the cave bears from Liñares and Eirós (Galicia, Spain)
(Universidade da Coruña, 2001)[Abstract] The sites of Liñares and Eirós are closely situated in the NW of Spain and both contains a large number of Ursus spelaeus remains. However, the chronology of these sites is different and correspond to different ... -
A preliminary comparison between boring from Pocala Cave and an unroofle cave at Borgo Grotta Gigante, Trieste Karst
(Universidade da Coruña, 2001)[Abstract] In 2000 five boring were performed in a unroofle cave at Borgo Grotta gigante, the third in particular is correlable with the boring outside Pocala Cave. The first result has been obtained by observing the absence ... -
A review of the cave bear sex dimorphism
(Universidade da Coruña, 2001)[Abstract] In this paper the influence of sex dimorphism in the population of cave bears from Cova Eirós (Triacastela, Galicia, Spain) is reviewed. The study will be centred in the skull, jaw and teeth, and principally in ... -
Adubação verde em Citrus: influência na porosidade e retenção de água de um latossolo vermelho-escuro do noroeste do estado de São Paulo
(Universidade da Coruña, 2001)[Abstract] The objective of this research was to study the porosity, bulk density and retention of water of an Oxisol, located in the Northwestern region of São Paulo state, Brazil. The soil was cultivated with Citrus ... -
Age structure and sex ratio of cave bears in the Zoolithenhöhle, southern Germany
(Universidade da Coruña, 2001)[Abstract] This paper reports the results of the study of age and sexual composition of the cave bear (Ursus spelaeus) ‘population’ of the Zoolithenhöhle, a classic cave site in Bavaria, southern Germany. Radiocarbon dating ... -
Análisis geoestadístico de la microtopografía de la superficie en un suelo de cultivo
(Universidade da Coruña, 2001)[Abstract] Depressions at the soil surface influence temporal water storage and hence runoff generation. Surface microtopography of tilled soils is subject to spatial and temporal changes. The objective of this study was ... -
Análisis microestructural de caolinitas y génesis de caolines en el Macizo Ibérico
(Universidade da Coruña, 2001)[Abstract] Mineralogical, geochemical and XRD microstructural characterization for different groups of argillized materials of the Iberian Massif have been performed; the variability and correllation of these characteristics ... -
Archaic and recent Ursus spelaeus forms from Lombardy and Venetia Region (North Italy)
(Universidade da Coruña, 2001)[Abstract] Some Ursus spelaeus Rosenmüller-Heinroth, 1784 cranial and mandibular remains coming from Northern Italy (Lombardy Region -Buco dell’Orso Cave, Laglio, Como-) and from Venetia Region (Cerè, S. Donà di Lamon and ... -
Cave Bear ancestors
(Universidade da Coruña, 2001)[Abstract] The lineage of the cave bear Ursus deningeri--> U. Spelaeus is well known, but to draw a limit in this evolution is not easy. The real difficulty is met when this cave bear lineage has to be linked to its ... -
Cave bear worship in the Palaeolithic
(Universidade da Coruña, 2001)[Abstract] As a result of detailed discussion under different points of view, this study has neither endorsed evidence of any early belief system nor of cave bear worship. All relevant conceptions of that kind are either ... -
Cave bear's diet: a new hypothesis based on stable isotopes
(Universidade da Coruña, 2001)[Abstract] The Ursus spelaeus diet has always been a controversial topic in Paleontology. Both, morphometric and isotopic studies, have raised the hypothesis of herbivorism for this extinct ursid that belongs to the order ... -
Dental wear and grit ingestion in extant and extinct bears from Northern Spain
(Universidade da Coruña, 2001)[Abstract] The dental morphology of the cave bear Ursus spelaeus (Rosenmuller & Heinroth, 1794) indicates its specialisation as a vegetation eater. Although vegetal matter plays also an important role in the diet of most ... -
Dependencia espacial de datos topográficos a escala de ladera y pequeña cuenca agrícola
(Universidade da Coruña, 2001)[Abstract] Landscapes are characterized by both, random and non-random variability components. Random variability of topographical data, summarized by the semivariance, may be used to elaborate DEMs. The main objective of ... -
