    (Universidad de Murcia: servicio de publicaciones, 2025) Arroyo del Bosque, Rubén; Amatria Jiménez, Mario; Maneiro Dios, Rubén; Sin departamento asociado
    This study analyses the offensive technical behaviours in women's 7-a-side football, evaluating the execution and success according to the players' demarcation. We observed 295 offensive sequences of the I Torneo Nacional Femenino LaLiga Promises 2019 (U-12), applying an observational methodology with an ad hoc recording instrument. The analyses included relationships between categorical variables and polar coordinates. The results ndicate a frequent and successful use (78%) of controls, passing, dribbling and driving. The goalkeepers and defenders are notable for their control and passing actions to maintain possession and structure the ball out. The midfielders intervene with driving and aerial play to connect lines, while the forwards act after dribbles down the flank, looking for the finish. These findings underline the importance of combinative play and space management, providing valuable information to improve tactical planning and training at youth level

    El campo de atracción de migrantes de Madrid en 1905 : una contribución metodológica a la comprensión de la migración interior española
    (Universidad de Murcia, Servicio de Publicaciones, 2025) Oris, Michel; Mazzoni, Stanislao; Ordanovich, Dariya; Barba, Melissa; Ramiro-Fariñas, Diego; Sin departamento asociado
    This article examines the advantages and limitations of an old method that is enjoying a new lease of life: migratory field analysis, which differs from the classic study of the migrant recruitment area by taking into account the population at the origin of migration and examining the relationships between migratory intensity and place of destination. This approach is applied to two Madrid districts in 1905. In conclusion, we advocate dialogue rather than confrontation of methods.

    Integrating socio-spatial preference heterogeneity into the assessment of the aesthetic quality of a Mediterranean agricultural landscape
    (Elsevier, 2023-07-22) Albaladejo García, J.A.; Zabala García, José Ángel; Alcón, Francisco; Dallimer, Martín; Martínez Paz, José M.; Economía Aplicada
    Assessing ecosystem services associated with agricultural landscapes is of growing interest to the research and policy/practice communities. One particularly challenging aspect to understand is the value of the aesthetic quality of such landscapes, even though this is one of the main contributions that agricultural landscapes make to cultural ecosystem service provision. Indeed, as increasing demands are placed on agricultural landscapes for food production, infrastructure development and urbanisation, aesthetic qualities can be severely affected, particularly if those landscapes are used for traditional agricultural practices. Here we assess the aesthetic quality of an agricultural landscape by integrating social preferences heterogeneity and spatial aspects of the provision, combining subjective and objective perspectives. We work in landscapes dominated by irrigated flowering fruit trees in Cieza, in south-east Spain as it is an excellent example of a semi-arid Mediterranean agroecosystem that delivers multiple ecosystem services, including aesthetic quality, in addition to food production. Using GIS tools and a choice experiment, we assess the social utility function for this landscape, and demonstrate social preferences heterogeneity for demand for the aesthetic qualities of the landscape. Latent class modelling distinguished three populations, with the majority preferring diversified agricultural landscapes and management policies based on a more natural-looking agricultural landscape. These results provide agroecosystem managers with an additional vision focused on enhancing the combination of the most diverse and natural-looking elements in the landscape in order to underpin the delivery of cultural ecosystem services that also increase social well-being.
