Roberto Dabbene is a science topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Roberto Dabbene rather than just read about it. In short: Roberto Raul Dabbene (17 January 1864– 20 October 1938) was an Italian-Argentine ornithologist. Born in Turin, he studied at the University of Turin and received a doctorate in 1884 from the University of Genoa and moved to Argentina in 1887.

Key takeaways

Roberto Dabbene belongs to science; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Roberto Dabbene to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Roberto Dabbene from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Roberto Raul Dabbene (17 January 1864– 20 October 1938) was an Italian-Argentine ornithologist. Born in Turin, he studied at the University of Turin and received a doctorate in 1884 from the University of Genoa and moved to Argentina in 1887. After teaching chemistry at the Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, he moved to Buenos Aires in 1890 where he was inspired to study birds by Dr. E. L. Homberg who made him a member of the zoo staff. He studied the Argentine birds for over 40 years, and became curator of birds at the National Museum and writing many of the most important books on the subject. He was a founder of the journal El Hornero.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Roberto Dabbene

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Roberto Dabbene claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Roberto Dabbene before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Roberto Dabbene ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Roberto Dabbene

In research: Roberto Dabbene appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Roberto Dabbene in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Roberto Dabbene is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1864 births, 1938 deaths, Argentine ornithologists, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Roberto Dabbene outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
