Reconstruction of High-Resolution Daily Precipitation Field over Sicily since 1951: A Doubly Conditional Atlas

Long-term, high-resolution precipitation datasets are indispensable for understanding hydroclimatic variability and supporting water-resource and climate-impact studies. Yet, the reconstruction of spatially consistent rainfall fields over extended historical periods remains a major challenge, particularly in data-sparse Mediterranean regions characterized by complex terrain and pronounced precipitation heterogeneity. The purpose of the present study is to present the first long-term, high-res...

Operationalizing the Right to Health through Governance-Based Health Systems Evaluation: A Dynamic Performance Management Approach

This doctoral thesis proposal integrates the findings of four scientific articles focused on the right to health, human rights-based approaches, and health systems performance, with particular emphasis on the Colombian case and the contemporary challenges of governance, equity, and effective access to healthcare services. The studies combine methodologies including integrative review, realist synthesis, dynamic governance analysis, and grounded theory, enabling a multidimensional approach to ...

Innovative biotechnological approaches for enhancing the aromatic profile and longevity of Catarratto wine under sustainable winemaking strategies

Il Catarratto è il vitigno a bacca bianca più coltivato in Sicilia. Esso riveste un ruolo centrale nella viticoltura dell’isola grazie alla sua elevata adattabilità a diverse condizioni ambientali e al suo potenziale nella produzione di vini di qualità. Nonostante la sua importanza, le conoscenze relative alle caratteristiche aromatiche, chimiche e microbiologiche dei vini ottenuti da questo vitigno sono ancora limitate. Vi è dunque la necessità di ulteriori studi finalizzati a migliorarne la...

Development of biotechnological systems based on the application of oenological bio activators to enhance the cellular vitality and fermentative capacity of yeasts in the presence of stress factors

The present doctoral thesis investigated the physiological status of wine yeasts and the resulting impact on alcoholic fermentation performance and final wine quality under conditions of environmental stress, with particular emphasis on oxidative stress and low pH. These stress factors are among the most critical challenges in modern enology, as they can significantly affect yeast viability, metabolic activity, fermentation kinetics, and the chemical and sensory characteristics of wine. In pa...

Enhance Mental Health Outcomes of Doctoral Students through A Dynamic Performance Governance approach.

Doctoral education plays a central role in advancing national research capacity, innovation, and academic excellence. However, an increasing body of evidence reveals that doctoral students globally experience high levels of psychological stress, anxiety, and depression. This study focuses on understanding the systemic causes of these mental health challenges, with particular attention to the Chinese context, where rapid expansion, centralized governance, and strong socio-cultural expectations...
