TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied abundance, composition, and heterogeneity of woody species of NW Patagonian shrublands: composition, structure and heterogeneity, and found that the litter heterogeneity was similar among species and that perennial species accumulated and produced more litter per year than deciduous species.
Abstract: Litter of woody species of NW Patagonian shrublands: composition, structure and heterogeneity. Litter is an important component of ecosystems. It influences nutrient dynamics and microsite conditions (e.g., solar radiation, soil temperature and water retention). Consequently, litter could affect plant regeneration, either positively or negatively. Our aim was to study abundance, composition, heterogeneity and annual production of the litter produced by fifteen common woody species in shrublands of NW Patagonia. Total litter varied from 347.9 to 2534.7 gm-2. Litter accumulation in these shrublands was lower than in Andean forests but similar to other shrublands of other regions. Also, annual production of litter was lower than in other ecosystems and similar to the Patagonian Monte. Litter heterogeneity was similar among species. Perennial species accumulated and produced more litter per year than deciduous species. These results could be important to understand the regeneration process and nutrient cycling at the community scale. In both functional groups we found some species with extreme values in most variables and others which intermediate values which represent a variation gradient. This provides this system with a high diversity of microsites associated with litter

TL;DR: A teaching proposal designed for the Translation and Traductology subject of the translation training program taught at National University of Comahue seeks to integrate research tasks and translation practice.
Abstract: This article presents a teaching proposal designed for the Translation and Traductology subject of the translation training program taught at National University of Comahue. This didactic proposal seeks to integrate research tasks and translation practice. The different phases of curriculum design and the type of evaluation conducted are described. The evaluation phase comprises learner performance progress and syllabus assessment. Finally, the main aspects of the didactic proposal that need to be improved are identified.

TL;DR: A translation from ancient Greek into Spanish of Ammonius' Commentary on Aristotelian Categories 1a1-15 is described in this article. But this translation is limited to the Spanish language.
Abstract: After a brief preliminary description of the ancient commentary movement relating to Aristotle’s treatises, this paper provides a first translation from ancient Greek into Spanish of Ammonius’ Commentary on Aristotle’s Categories 1a1-15. In this commentary, the exhausted topic corresponds to technical notions of homonyms, synonyms and paronymous: decisive conceptions that to a large extent determine the comprehension of Aristotelian philosophy. The translation of the Greek is direct and literal, and includes explanatory and analytical notes which character is as much philological as philosophical.
