Advancing the soil deal for Europe through cyberinfrastructure and citizen science This article explores advancements in soil health across Europe, highlighting innovative cyberinfrastructure for soil citizen science. This initiative, led by the Quanta team, allows citizens to actively participate in environmental stewardship. Unhealthy soil poses a serious threat to our environment, diminishing its ability to act as a carbon sink, lowering agricultural productivity, and contributing to biodiversity loss. Prioritizing improved soil management practices is imperative for a sustainable future.
This paper focuses on the analysis of the uses of the Internet by activists of the 15-M movement. We pay attention to two processes: the use of the Internet I) as a vehicle of communication with their potential audiences and II) as a technology that allows to circulate an alternative framework. Therefore we analyzed also the role played by the newspapers during the regional and municipal elections of 2011 when the movement burst onto the Spanish public life. Facing the frameworks developed by the newspapers during this period, the activists reacted with a strategy to control the flow of information about what was happening in the streets of many cities in Spain. This strategy of communicative action revolves around the general framework of the 15-M and, thanks largely to the Internet, is focused on the need to develop forms of direct participation and the disintermediation of the relationships between activists and other citizens. ; Este trabajo se centra en el análisis de los usos de Internet por parte de los activistas del movimiento 15-M en dos sentidos: I) como vehículo de comunicación con sus potenciales audiencias y II) como estrategia que permite poner en circulación marcos alternativos a los ofrecidos por los mass media. Por ello analizamos, también, el papel que jugó la prensa escrita durante las elecciones autonómicas y municipales de 2011 cuando el movimiento irrumpió con fuerza en la vida pública española. Frente a los marcos desarrollados por la prensa escrita durante dicho periodo, los activistas del movimiento reaccionaron con una estrategia dirigida a controlar el flujo de información sobre lo que estaba sucediendo en las plazas de muchas ciudades de España. Se trata, de una estrategia de acción comunicativa que gira en torno al marco general del 15-M y que, gracias en gran medida a Internet, se centra en la necesidad de desarrollar formas de participación directas y des-intermediar las relaciones entre los activistas y el resto de ciudadanos.This paper focuses on the analysis of the uses of the Internet by activists of the 15-M movement.

[EN] This paper is based on the data from archaeological surveysat La Genestosa (Casillas de Flores, Salamanca) in 2012 and 2013. The study of the uncovered material (pottery, glasses,numerical slates), the interpretation of building techniques and pollen analysis provided information about the dynamics of rural landscape in Central Iberia. The initiative of peasant groups, with internal social differences, was the cause of an internalcolonization for farming of some spaces of flexible use, which involved the creation of new settlements. The coincidence withthe early medieval cold episode (450-950 AD) implied that some wetlands became critical for livestock purposes. As a result, settlement patterns would be determined by the closeness of those areas. ; [ES] Este artículo presenta los datos de las intervenciones arqueológicas realizadas en La Genestosa (Casillas de Flores, Salamanca) en los años 2012 y 2013. Gracias al estudio de losmateriales recuperados (cerámicas, vidrios, pizarras numerales), del estudio de las viviendas y de los análisis polínicos, se puede comprender la dinámica del paisaje rural en este sector del centro de la península ibérica. Se detecta la colonizaciónde espacios de uso flexible con fines ganaderos, que serían la consecuencia de una iniciativa por grupos campesinos condiferencias internas, quienes crearon nuevos asentamientos. La coincidencia con el episodio frío altomedieval (450-950 d. C.) conllevó que determinados espacios húmedos se convirtiesen en áreas críticas, condicionando los patrones de asentamiento.
