Authors: Del Pino-Sepúlveda Miguel , Montanares-Vargas Elizabeth
Published: March 2019

El trabajo aborda la evaluación de contenidos desde el enfoque de la evaluación comunicativa y tiene tres objetivos: 1) Develar los contenidos que se trabajan en evaluación comunicativa desde la perspectiva de los agentes educativos involucrados, 2) Identificar el rol de los participantes en la selección de contenidos a evaluar, y 3) Identificar los criterios de selección de contenidos. Se empleó la metodología Dialógica-Kishu Kimkelay Ta Che, y como técnicas de recogida de información la conversación dialógica y el diálogo colectivo en tres ciudades: Concepción, Tomé y Talca (Chile). La validación de los datos se realizó a través de la categorización de los mismos en dimensiones transformadoras, conservadoras y exclusoras. Como resultados relevantes se propone incorporar y rescatar saberes sociales, culturales y lingüísticos de las comunidades a evaluar con el fin de enriquecer los contenidos prescritos por el currículum nacional.

Published: March 2019

El propósito de esta investigación fue determinar los estilos de aprendizaje por género y carrera, así como las estrategias de enseñanza más efectivas en educación superior en Ecuador. Se tomó como grupo focal a estudiantes de Edafología de la Universidad Técnica Particular de Loja (UTPL) y se desarrolló un estudio descriptivo, utilizando el Cuestionario Honey-Alonso de Estilos de Aprendizaje (CHAEA); además, se consultaron las estrategias que más impactaron en la enseñanza. Las preferencias fueron de moderadas a bajas para los cuatro estilos de aprendizaje según la carrera y género; las estrategias más efectivas fueron: video, clase magistral y trabajo de campo-laboratorio-aula. Se evidenció que los educandos no aprenden de una única manera, sino que tienen diversos estilos de aprendizaje, por lo que se deberían aplicar estrategias que amplíen el rango de capacidades de aprendizaje.

Characterization of a b-metric space completeness via the existence of a fixed point of Ciric-Suzuki type quasi-contractive multivalued operators and applications
Authors: Alolaiyan Hanan , Ali Basit , Abbas Mujahid
Published: March 2019

The aim of this paper is to introduce Ciric-Suzuki type quasi-contractive multivalued operators and to obtain the existence of fixed points of such mappings in the framework of b-metric spaces. Some examples are presented to support the results proved herein. We establish a characterization of strong b-metric and b-metric spaces completeness. An asymptotic estimate of a Hausdorff distance between the fixed point sets of two Ciric-Suzuki type quasi-contractive multivalued operators is obtained. As an application of our results, existence and uniqueness of multivalued fractals in the framework of b-metric spaces is proved.
Engel, Nilpotent and Solvable BCI-algebras
Authors: Mohammadzadeh Elahe , Borzooei Rajab Ali
Published: March 2019

In this paper, we define the concepts of Engel, nilpotent and solvable BCI-algebras and investigate some of their properties. Specially, we prove that any BCK-algebra is a 2-Engel. Then we define the center of a BCI-algebra and prove that in a nilpotent BCI-algebra X, each minimal closed ideal of X is contained in the center of X. In addition, with some conditions, we show that every finite BCI-algebra is solvable. Finally, we investigate the relations among Engel, nilpotent and solvable BCI(BCK)-algebras.
Some decompositions of filters in residuated lattices
Authors: Piciu Dana , Dan Christina Theresia , Chirteş Florentina
Published: March 2019

In this paper we introduce a new class of residuated lattice: residuated lattice with (C∧&→) property and we prove that (C∧&→) ⇔ (C
→) + (C∧).Also, we introduce and characterize C
→, C∨, C∧ and C∧ & → filters in residuated lattices (i.e., we characterize the filters for which the quotient algebra that is constructed via these filters is a residuated lattice with C
→ (C∨ or C∧ or C∧&→ property). We state and prove some results which establish the relationships between these filters and other filters of residuated lattices: BL filters, MTL filters, divisible filters and, by some examples, we show that these filters are different. Starting from the results of algebras, we present for MTL filters, BL filters and C∧&→ filters the decomposition conditions.

Authors: Skačkauskas Paulius , Sokolovskij Edgar
Published: March 2019

To achieve the overall goal of realising an efficient and advantageous participation of autonomous ground vehicles in the transport system as fast as possible, a lot of work is being done in different and specific research fields. One of the most important research fields, which has a large impact on safe autonomous ground vehicle realisation, is the development of path planning algorithms. Therefore, this work describes in detail the development and application of a hybrid path planning algorithm. The described algorithm is based on classical and heuristic path planning approaches and can be applied in unstructured and structured environments. The efficiency of the algorithm was investigated by applying the algorithm and executing theoretical and experimental tests. The theoretical and experimental tests were executed while optimising different complexity paths. Results analysis demonstrated that the described algorithm can generate a smooth, dynamically feasible and collision-free path.
Automated Railway Signs Detection. Preliminary Results
Authors: Guerrieri Marco , Parla Giuseppe
Published: March 2019

Nowadays safety in railways is mostly achieved by automated system technologies such as ERTMS/ETCS. Nevertheless, on local railways (suburban and regional lines) several tasks still depend on the choices and actions of a human crew. With the aim to improve safety in such type of railways, this research proposes a system for the automatic detection and recognition of railway signs by means of the digital image processing technique. First field applications, carried out on the Italian railway network, show that the proposed system is very accurate (the percentage of correctly detected railway signs is about 97%), even at high train speeds.

This paper is entitled “The Analysis Code Switching Found in The Novel “Critical Eleven”. The aims of this study  are to describe the types, function and to the analyse reasons of code switching used by the novelist. The data  in this study were taken from all chapters of the novel entitled “Critical Eleven”by Ika Natassa. Firstly, the code switching that occurs in novel were identified and then they were classified and analyzed based on their types, function, and reasons of code switching. The collected data were analyzed  using three theories;  first the theory by Poplack as the main theory used in this study; this theory was used to analyze the three types of code swtching, they are: Tag Switching, Inter-Sentental Switching, Intra-Sentential Switching. The second theory proposed by Apple and Muyken was used to anlyze the function of code switching. They divided the functions into six categories, which are: Referential Function, Directive Function, Expressive Function, Phatic Function, Metalinguistic Function, Poetic Function. The theory proposed by Grosjean was used to analyze the reason of code switching.  There are ten reasons of code switching; they are: To Fill A Linguistic Need For Lexical Item, Set Phrase, Discouse Marker Or Sentence Filler,To Continue Last Language Used (Triggering}, To Qoute Someone, To Emphasize, To Spesify Speaket Addressee, To Qualify Message: Amplify Or Emphasize, To Specify Speaker Involvement, To Mark And Emphasize Group Identity (Solidarity), To Convey Confidentially, Anger, Annoyance, To  Exclude Someone From Conversation, To Change Role Of Speaker: Rise Status, Add Authority, Show Expertise.But from the six functions of code switching  applied, there are only five functions of code switching found in the novel; they are Referential Function, Expressive Function, Phatic Function, Metalinguistic Function And Poetic Function. And based on the reasons of code switching, there were only seven which were found in the novel”Critical Eleven”; they are To Fill A Linguistic Need For Lexical Item, To Continue The Last Language Used (Triggering), To Quote Someone, Specify Addressee, To Specify Speaker Involvement, To Mark And Emphasize Group Identify (Solidarity) And To Convey Confidentially, Anger, And Annoyance.

Incidence of Work and Workplace Injury Among Alberta Teens
Authors: Barnetson Bob
Published: March 2019

Utilizing a convenience sample of nearly 2000 respondents drawn from administrative data, this study finds 43.7 percent of adolescents (aged 12-14) and 61.5 percent of young persons (aged 15-17) in the Canadian province of Alberta reported employment in 2011/12. Of those employed, 49.7 percent of adolescents and 59.0 percent of young persons reported at least one work-related injury in the previous year. This study also identifies widespread non-reporting of workplace injuries and seemingly ineffective hazard identification and safety training. These results add to the growing evidence that the regulation of teenage employment in Alberta fails to adequately protect these workers from injury.
Labour Protection for Self-Employed Workers
Authors: Fudge Judy
Published: March 2019

Self-employed workers have an legal ambiguous status. Traditionally self-employment is equated with entrepreneurship and legally it is considered to be a form of independent contracting and thus outside the ambit of labour protection and collective bargaining laws. But the evidence suggests that most of the self-employed, especially those who do not employ other workers, are much more like employees than they are like entrepreneurs. Instead of attempting to draw a new line between employment and independent contracting for the purpose of determining the scope of labour protection, collective bargaining, and social insurance laws, all workers, including the self-employed, who depend on the sale of their capacity to work should be covered by these laws, unless there are compelling public policy reasons for a narrower definition.
Tears at Work: Gender, Interaction, and Emotional Labour
Authors: Soares Angelo
Published: March 2019

For a long time, it has been believed that it is possible to leave our emotions at the threshold of the workplace. This excessively simplifies the complexity and heterogeneity of work, leading to an underestimation of the effects of work on health. Our objective is to understand one particular form of the expression of workers’ emotions: crying at work, which may be linked to an excess of emotional labour or to the impossibility of its achievement. Thus, differences between male and female crying, at least at work, may be explained not only by a gendered socialisation of individuals, but also by the sexual division of emotional labour. This imposes an emotional overload on women, since a more intensive management of emotions is demanded of them at work. Nous avons cru pendant longtemps qu'il était possible de laisser nos émotions à la porte des organisations. Cela simplifie excessivement la complexité et l'hétérogénéité du travail et, par conséquent, on finit par sous-estimer les effets du travail sur la santé. Notre objectif est de comprendre une forme particulière de l'expression des émotions des travailleuses et travailleurs : les larmes au travail qui peuvent être associées, soit à une surcharge de travail émotionnel, soit à l’impossibilité de son accomplissement. Ainsi, les différences entre les larmes des femmes et des hommes, au moins au travail, peuvent être expliquées, non seulement par les différences sexuées dans la socialisation des individus, mais aussi par la division sexuelle du travail émotionnel et des émotions qui impose une surcharge émotive plus prononcée aux femmes en demandant une gestion plus intensive de leurs émotions au travail.
Up Against the Wall: The Political Economy of the New Attack on the Canadian Labour Movement
Authors: Jackson Andrew
Published: March 2019

The Canadian labour movement faces an existential crisis. State and business hostility to unions is not new, but the attack has recently intensified as conservative political forces and major employer groups have embraced the agenda of the US Republican right. Mirroring anti-union US labour law would lead to the precipitous decline of union density in Canada, which is already eroding due to the manufacturing crisis and the long-standing failure of unions to organize in private services. The new attack is more a product of labour movement weakness than strength, and will be most effectively resisted by increasing union density and bargaining power in the private sector.
Children Working Alone in Alberta: How Child Labour and Working Alone Regulations Interact
Authors: Barnetson Bob
Published: March 2019

The Canadian province of Alberta does not effectively enforce its child labour laws. This non-enforcement interacts with the working-alone regulations in Alberta’s Occupational Health and Safety Act to deny workers under age 15 meaningful solo work protection. As a result, children and adolescents are exposed to the hazards adults face while working alone as well as hazards unique to children and adolescents working alone. This suggests that failing to enforce child labour laws has both obvious and subtle effects. The subtle effects are difficult to identify and remediate, in part because of the initial regulatory failure is politically difficult to acknowledge.
Is Precarious Employment Low Income Employment? The Changing Labour Market in Southern Ontario
Authors: Lewchuck Wayne , Procyk Stephanie , Lafleche Michelynn , Rosen Dan , Dyson Diane , Shields John , Goldring Luin , Viducis Peter , Meisner Alan , Vrankulj Sam
Published: March 2019

This paper examines the association between income and precarious employment, how this association is changing and how it is shaped by gender and race. It explores how precarious employment has spread to even middle income occupations and what this implies for our understanding of contemporary labour markets and employment relationship norms. The findings indicate a need to refine our views of who is in precarious employment and a need to re-evaluate the nature of the Standard Employment Relationship, which we would argue is not only becoming less prevalent, but also transitioning into something that is less secure.
Not Profiting from Precarity: The Work of Nonprofit Service Delivery and the Creation of Precasiousness
Authors: Baines Donna , Cunningham Ian , Campey John , Shields John
Published: March 2019

This paper examines the impact of precarity on the nonprofit service providing sector (NPSS). Using in depth qualitative interviews, recent empirically-based surveys of the Ontario nonprofit sector and key academic and grey literature, we explore the deeper meaning of precarity in this sector. We contend that the NPSS is a unique, and in many respects, an ideal location in which to explore the workings and impact of precarity. Looking at the nonprofit sector reveals that precarity operates at various levels, the: 1) nonprofit labour force; 2) organization structure and operation of nonprofit agencies; and, 3) clients and communities serviced by these nonprofit organizations. By observing the workings of precarity in this sector, precarity is revealed to be far more than an employment based phenomenon but also a force that negatively impacts organizational structures as well as vulnerable communities.
Prawosławie i ekumenizm. Kontrowersyjny dokument Soboru na Krecie (2016)
Authors: Kałużny Tadeusz
Published: March 2019

Celem artykułu jest ukazanie istotnych treści dokumentu Świętego i Wielkiego Soboru na Krecie (2016) Relacje Kościoła prawosławnego z pozostałym światem chrześcijańskim. W pierwszej części artykułu przedstawiono genezę dokumentu. W drugiej części omówiono najbardziej kontrowersyjne punkty badanego tekstu. W związku z tym zwrócono uwagę na trzy kwestie: samoświadomość Kościoła prawosławnego, stanowisko na temat eklezjalnego statusu Wspólnot nieprawosławnych oraz rozumienie ekumenicznego zaangażowaniaprawosławia. W trzeciej części zaprezentowano niektóre problemy na drodze recepcji analizowanego dokumentu w świecie prawosławnym. Ostatecznie stwierdzono, iż kreteński Sobór nie zdołał rozwiązać w sposób definitywny kwestii relacji Kościoła prawosławnego do innych chrześcijan, z którymi prowadzi dialog ekumeniczny i współpracuje od dziesięcioleci.
Kościół rzymski i pierwszeństwo jego biskupa w eklezjologii ks. Mikołaja Afanasjewa
Authors: Kuźma Andrzej
Published: March 2019

Ks. Mikołaj Afanasjew jest jednym z najbardziej znaczących teologów prawosławnych XX w. w dziedzinie eklezjologii. Rozwinął i uzasadnił koncepcję eklezjologii eucharystycznej, w pewien sposób przeciwstawiając ją eklezjologii uniwersalistycznej. Na bazie tych obu eklezjologii poruszył problem prymatu w Kościele. Wychodząc z założeń eklezjologii eucharystycznej, podkreślał równość biskupów poszczególnych lokalnych Kościołów w ich posłudze. Równość biskupów jednak nie jest w sprzeczności z tym, że niektóre Kościoły cieszyły się większym autorytetem od pozostałych. W okresie apostolskim Kościołem, który posiadał największy autorytet, był Kościół jerozolimski, natomiastod II w. stał się Kościół rzymski. Rozwój eklezjologii uniwersalistycznej, przede wszystkim za sprawą św. Cypriana z Kartaginy, jak uważa ks. M. Afanasjew, przyczynił się to tego, że autorytet Kościoła rzymskiego w osobie jego biskupa zyskał wymiar prawny. W ten sposób biskupi rzymscy zaczęli się uważać za zwierzchników całego Kościoła powszechnego. Afanasjew podkreśla, że Kościół prawosławny na bazie eklezjologii eucharystycznej zawsze akceptował pierwszeństwo Kościoła i biskupa rzymskiego, natomiast nie może przyjąć jego prymatu o charakterze jurydycznym na bazie eklezjologii uniwersalistycznej.
Modele eklezjalnej jedności chrześcijan
Authors: Jaskóła Piotr
Published: March 2019

Dla rozwoju ruchu ekumenicznego potrzeba modeli określających możliwości jednoczenia się chrześcijan. Dialogi ekumeniczne pokazują, że w prawie każdym Kościele chrześcijańskim wyobrażenia o jedności są różne. Z problemem braku jednej wizji jedności łączy się drugi – brak jednego pojęcia Kościoła, a przynajmniej brak takiego jego rozumienia, które byłoby akceptowane przez wszystkich chrześcijan. Trzeci problem związany jest z dwoma poprzednimi i dotyczy ekumenicznej hermeneutyki, która jest uzależniona od różnych eklezjalnych modeli jedności. Wyznaniowe uwarunkowania sprawiają, że inną wizję jedności mają prawosławni, inną protestanci, a jeszcze inną katolicy. Artykuł prezentuje głównie w oparciu o opracowania Komisji „Wiara i Ustrój” podstawowe współczesne eklezjalne modele jednoczenia się chrześcijan: jedność organiczna – model preferowany przez Kościoły anglikańskie (1), pojednana różnorodność – ewangelicko zorientowany model (2), wspólnota soborowa – prawosławny model jedności (3), wspólnota wspólnot – katolicko zorientowany model jedności (4).
Museum Assemblage: Global Narratives Manifested in Museums - Focused on Korean Art Exhibitions in the U.S. Museums
Authors:   Society for Art Education of Korea, KIM Sujin
Published: March 2019

Korean artworks are exhibited in art museums outside of Korea via many different routes. This study navi- gates multiple narratives emerged from these objects exhibited in art museums in the U.S. Thirteen art mu- seums in the U.S. were selected for this study. Their permanent galleries as well as special exhibitions pre- senting Korea-related artworks were examined. Exhibited objects, panels, labels, images, maps, leaflets, catalogs, webpage, YouTube clips were utilized for data collection. Deleuze and Guattari’s “assemblage” was used as a major concept to analyze art museums’ narratives. As a result, permanent galleries’ narra- tives were analyzed within three themes: 1) geographical location, 2) time period, and 3) narratives’ blind spots. Special exhibitions revealed three curatorial strategies that were employed: 1) focusing on a partic- ular genre, 2) reflecting the present, and 3) creating new hybrids. Globalization has existed in multiple forms across time and space. Likewise, Korean art objects have formed diverse networks and various narratives. They are constantly transforming through deterritorialization and reterritorialization.
The Carbon:²³⁴Thorium ratios of sinking particles in the California Current Ecosystem 2: Examination of a thorium sorption, desorption, and particle transport model
Authors: Stukel Michael , Kelly Thomas
Published: March 2019

Thorium-234 (234Th) is a powerful tracer of particle dynamics and the biological pump in the surface ocean; however, variability in carbon:thorium ratios of sinking particles adds substantial uncertainty to estimates of organic carbon export. We coupled a mechanistic thorium sorption and desorption model to a one-dimensional particle sinking model that uses realistic particle settling velocity spectra. The model generates estimates of 238U-234Th disequilibrium, particulate organic carbon concentration, and the C:234Th ratio of sinking particles, which are then compared to in situ measurements from quasi-Lagrangian studies conducted on six cruises in the California Current Ecosystem. Broad patterns observed in in situ measurements, including decreasing C:234Th ratios with depth and a strong correlation between sinking C:234Th and the ratio of vertically-integrated particulate organic carbon (POC) to vertically-integrated total water column 234Th, were accurately recovered by models assuming either a power law distribution of sinking speeds or a double log normal distribution of sinking speeds. Simulations suggested that the observed decrease in C:234Th with depth may be driven by preferential remineralization of carbon by particle-attached microbes. However, an alternate model structure featuring complete consumption and/or disaggregation of particles by mesozooplankton (e.g. no preferential remineralization of carbon) was also able to simulate decreasing C:234Th with depth (although the decrease was weaker), driven by 234Th adsorption onto slowly sinking particles. Model results also suggest that during bloom decays C:234Th ratios of sinking particles should be higher than expected (based on contemporaneous water column POC), because high settling velocities minimize carbon remineralization during sinking.
The Contribution of Security to Well-being
Authors: Herington Jonathan
Published: March 2019

Do unknown and unrealized risks of harm diminish an individual’s well-being? The traditional answer is no: that the security of prudential goods benefits an individual only instrumentally or by virtue of their subjective sense of security. Recent work has argued, however, that the security of prudential goods non-instrumentally benefits an individual regardless of whether or not they enjoy subjective security. In this paper, I critically examine three claims about the way in which unknown and unrealized risks of harm might diminish individual well-being: (i) it frustrates a desire to be secure, (ii) it frustrates the enjoyment of modally-robust goods, and (iii) it undermines the ability to make reasonable plans. Ultimately, I argue that all three of these hypotheses are mistaken, but that they deepen our understanding of the ways in which subjective security is an important constituent of individual well-being.
How metacognition and (reading) strategies develop according to Vygotsky
Authors: Engen Thor Ola
Published: March 2019

The paper addresses the concepts of metacognition and (reading) strategies, the origin of which is usually traced back to the 1970s. However, the paper argues that conscious awareness, which Vygotsky introduced as early as the 1930s, is another term for metacognition. Further, according to Vygotsky, “… conscious awareness enters through the gate opened up by scientific concept” (Vygotsky 1987: 191, italics added), meaning that metacognitive skills develop in instruction, as a function of student’s work with academic concepts. This hypothesis, however, seems to be ignored by contemporary, mainstream researchers. For example, an influential study like PIRLS, contradictory to Vygotsky’s hypothesis, assumes that students already at the end of the elementary stage apply metacognitive skills – included reading strategies – in order to construct meaning in reading.

Vygotsky’s cultural-historical theory introduced new procedures in research methodology referring to the relationship between the zone of actual and proximal development. In the article I share my research experience resulting from an attempt to use in my research a teaching experiment in the understanding of Lev S. Vygotsky, the transition from the study of existing learning culture products and the diagnosis of the zone of actual development, the exploration of the child’s learning potential, his/her susceptibility to teaching, estimation of the child’s proximal development and cognitive readiness; from organizing a research situation in which the child independently solves the problem to exploring the potential of a child to solve a problem in cooperation with an adult, finally from examining both the child and the context to the study of the child in the context.

Background: Research shows that people with diabetes have an astonishingly low level of awareness about diabetes, its related complications and management. The aim of our study was to assess the knowledge of diabetics regarding complications of Diabetes Mellitus Type II. This will help us identify knowledge amongst patients regarding their long-term illness.

Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted over a time span of two years in all three Ziauddin Hospitals in Karachi, Pakistan. Both male and female patients diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus Type II aged 30 years and above were included in the study. Those suffering from Diabetes Mellitus type I, Diabetes Insipidus, and Gestational Diabetes were excluded.

Los estudios de cambios de uso de suelo y vegetación sirven de apoyo a los tomadores de decisiones para proponer mejores programas y políticas de manejo y conservación de los recursos naturales. El presente trabajo tuvo el objetivo de identificar los cambios de uso del suelo y vegetación de ocho categorías en el periodo de 1993 a 2008. Se emplearon las cartas de Uso de Suelo y Vegetación Serie II de INEGI y la actualización de Serie III al 2008 mediante imágenes de satélite SPOT. En estos quince años se reconoce un crecimiento de áreas urbanas y agrícolas de 3.8% y 0.2%, respectivamente, a expensas de las zonas de pastizal y matorral, con tasas de cambio negativas de 1.2% para las primeras y 0.1% para las segundas. De la superficie total de 1, 007,837 ha que cubre toda la cuenca: 1.9% (19,537 ha) presentaron cambio de uso de suelo y vegetación, 14,307 ha (1.4% de la cuenca) fueron intercambios entre categorías y 0.5% (5,230 ha) a cambios netos. La relación pérdida/ganancia indica mayor reducción en el pastizal y más ganancia en cuerpos de agua. Los índices de permanencia a ganar son más altos en cuerpos de agua y zona urbana, y con respecto a pérdidas son de pastizal y áreas desprovistas de vegetación. Se concluye que la metodología de estimación de la tasa de cambios, evaluación multitemporal, estimación de cambios (pérdidas, ganancias e intercambios) e índices de persistencia permite analizar de forma detallada las modificaciones de uso de suelo y vegetación de la cuenca bajo estudio.

La variabilidad referente a la precipitación de los últimos 410 años (1599 - 2008) del ciclo invierno-primavera (noviembre-junio) en la parte alta de la cuenca del río Nazas, Durango, México se reconstruyó a partir de la cronología o serie de tiempo desarrollada con base en anillos de crecimiento de Pseudotsuga menziesii, que la explicó en 64%. La reconstrucción para estos cuatro siglos, validada con registros de precipitación y datos de archivos históricos, permitió determinar la presencia de sequías severas entre los periodos 1665 - 1688, 1695 - 1718, 1774 - 1791, 1798 - 1813, 1890 - 1896 y 1945 - 1963. Así, en la correspondiente a este último, de 1948 a 1963, se presentó la más importante del siglo XX; así como de, esos 410 años, por su impacto en la sociedad y la economía; sin embargo, aquellas de 1665 - 1688 y 1695 - 1718, pudieron haber causado efectos similares por su intensidad. En la parte alta de la cuenca, la precipitación es modulada de manera significativa (p<0.05) por El Niño Oscilación del Sur (ENSO, por sus siglas en inglés) tanto en su fase fría (La Niña), al producir intensa escasez de agua con repercusiones económicas, políticas y sociales para los pobladores de la Comarca Lagunera, como en su fase cálida (El Niño), con importantes incrementos en la pluviometría de la región.
