The parisite-(Ce) mineralization associated with the Fazenda Varela carbonatite (Correia Pinto, SC)
Authors: MANFREDI Tamara Reginatto , BASTOS NETO Artur C. , P. PEREIRA Vitor , BARBANSON Luc , SCHUCK Cristine
Published: April 2019

O carbonatito Fazenda Varela faz parte do complexo alcalino de Lages (SC), que pertence ao final do Cretáceo. O carbonatito ocorre na forma de abundantes veios que cortam arenitos da Formação Rio Bonito que foram fortemente brechados e metassomatizados. Os estudos petrográficos, geoquímicos, por difração de raios X, por microssonda e por microscopia eletrônica de varredura permitiram identificar e classificar o principal fluorcarbonato portador de ETR da rocha. O carbonatito é composto essencialmente pelos carbonatos magmáticos ankerita e Fe-dolomita e foi fortemente afetado por eventos tardi a pós-magmáticos. Os fluidos percolaram através de fraturas e limites de grãos e formaram domínios hidrotermais compostos por barita, apatita, quartzo, calcita, ferrodolomita e parisita-(Ce). Nestes domínios, os cristais de parisita-(Ce) são fibrosos a fibrorradiais e bem desenvolvidos. Ela também existe em veios hidrotermais que cortam a encaixante metassomatizada. Os policristais de parisita-(Ce) são heterogêneos e têm crescimento sintaxial com a synchysita-(Ce). Sua composição média apresenta excesso de Ca e deficiência de ETR e de F em relação a uma composição ideal. A mineralização de parisita-(Ce) foi formada a partir de um fluido com baixa atividade de F, que interagiu com a rocha lixiviando preferencialmente os ETRL que foram transportados provavelmente como complexos clorados.

Published: April 2019

Este trabalho apresenta uma caracterização hidroquímica e da qualidade da água subterrânea dos aquíferos Tubarão (sedimentar, granular) e Cristalino (fissural) na porção sul da Bacia Hidrográfica dos rios Piracicaba, Capivari e Jundiaí (UGRHI 05) que abrange os municípios de Indaiatuba, Salto, Monte Mor, Elias Fausto, Capivari e Rafard, Estado de São Paulo. O Aquífero Cristalino apresenta águas predominantemente bicarbonatadas cálcicas e sódicas, com pH médio de 7,35, enquanto as águas do Aquífero Tubarão são bicarbonatadas sódicas, com pH médio de 8,15, e ocorrência de águas sulfatadas sódicas. De modo geral, a salinidade e concentração de sódio destas águas tende a aumentar no sentido do fluxo subterrâneo das áreas de recarga para as de descarga nos principais rios da região. A correlação de dados isotópicos de δD e δ18O evidenciou a influência de águas meteóricas na composição de ambos os aquíferos, mas também indicou que algumas porções do Aquífero Tubarão estão confinadas com a presença de águas de recarga mais antigas e associadas a um período em que o clima era frio. Nas análises químicas de poços amostrados e de laudos de relatórios de poços, foram averiguados alguns parâmetros que se apresentam acima do padrão de potabilidade como fluoreto, sólidos totais dissolvidos, ferro total, manganês e nitrato. A ocorrência de elevados teores de F- e STD está associada a anomalias naturais da região; Fe(t) e Mn2+ podem estar relacionados às características das formações geológicas embora sejam necessários estudos complementares para averiguar a influência de fontes de contaminação ou de problemas construtivos de poços. Casos de contaminação por NO3 - são ainda pontuais, e indicam influência de cargas potenciais associadas à ocupação urbana e que merecem um monitoramento.

Published: April 2019

A dinâmica sedimentar em dunas costeiras é um processo complexo que exige a análise de vários fatores em diferentes escalas temporais. A análise de um banco de dados morfológicos sequenciais de três anos, realizados em um setor de dunas da praia do Cassino, localizada ao sul do Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil (RS), permitiu identificar a evolução espaço-temporal do perfil de dunas, que apresentou um comportamento predominantemente acrescional médio de 14,86 m3 /m por ano. Dados de ventos e Índice de Oscilação Niño (ION) mostram que esses componentes foram os principais agentes modeladores durante esse período. As técnicas de processamento digital de imagens associadas ao sistema Argus permitiram verificar o aumento da densidade vegetacionalna região que juntamente com os fatores físicos observados contribuíram para o aumento de volume de areia dasdunas costeiras.
ANÁLISE DA CAPACIDADE FISCAL PER CAPITA NA DESCENTRALIZAÇÃO DO PROGRAMA SEGUNDO TEMPO/ME JUNTO AOS MUNICÍPIOS
Authors: Santos Edmilson Santos dos , Starepravo Fernando Augusto
Published: April 2019

Um dos constrangimentos que dificultariam a implementação de programas que exigem contrapartida é a capacidade fiscal das prefeituras. Nesse sentido, este estudo teve como objetivo verificar se a capacidade fiscal per capita é um fator relevante na distribuição do Programa Segundo Tempo (PST) do Ministério do Esporte. As informações sobre a capacidade fiscal foram coletadas no IBGE, e sobre o programa diretamente do site do PST. Foram analisados os dados referentes ao período que vai de 2003 a 2012. Os resultados apontam que a capacidade fiscal (CF) per capita não interferiu na distribuição do PST. Além disso, não foi possível confirmar a hipótese de que a CF per capita diminui a capacidade de descentralização do programa.

AS REPORTAGENS DAS MÍDIAS ESTRANGEIRAS SOBRE O BRASIL DOS MEGAEVENTOS ESPORTIVOS: SOFT POWER, PERIFERIA E DEPENDÊNCIA
Authors: Bettine Marco , Gutierrez Diego , Graeff Billy
Published: April 2019

Neste artigo, a partir da análise de reportagens de nove jornais estrangeiros publicadas durante a Copa do Mundo e os Jogos Olímpicos realizados no Brasil, discutimos se a categoria soft power pode ser aplicada ao Brasil dos megaeventos esportivos. Consideramos que a categoria não pode ser aplicada em nações periféricas e deve ser repensada para países de economia dependente. Por isso, propomos de maneira embrionária uma redefinição da teoria de soft power. Neste contexto, surge a categoria “soft power heterodoxo”. A partir de tal categoria, consideramos que os jornais analisados retrataram dois países em um mesmo território, um em 2014 e outro em 2016. Levantamos cinco hipóteses para compreender este fenômeno: organização, dimensão, características, logística, desinteresse. Ademais, este estudo evidencia que não há elementos que possam corroborar avanço no soft power do Brasil a partir das Copa do Mundo (2014) e dos Jogos Olímpicos (2016).
“É MELHOR SER SUPER-HERÓI DO QUE SER A VÍTIMA”: UM ESTUDO SOBRE A PERCEPÇÃO DE ATLETAS E EX-ATLETAS COM DEFICIÊNCIA VISUAL SOBRE A COBERTURA MIDIÁTICA
Authors: Oliveira Amanda Paola Velasco de , Poffo Bianca Natália , Souza Doralice Lange de
Published: April 2019

De acordo com vários estudos, os atletas paralímpicos tendem a ser retratados pelos veículos midiáticos ou como vítimas de suas deficiências e/ou como super-heróis/supercrip. Diante disso, este artigo teve o objetivo de analisar a percepção de atletas e ex-atletas com deficiência visual sobre a forma com que eles são retratados pela mídia neste quesito. Realizamos uma pesquisa qualitativa, envolvendo entrevistas semiestruturadas e aprofundadas com cinco atletas e dois ex-atletas com deficiência visual. Verificamos que os entrevistados não se identificam como “coitadinhos” e não aprovam a vinculação da deficiência ao sofrimento. Verificamos também que não existe um consenso quanto à abordagem do super-herói/supercrip. Concluímos que a mídia não deve reproduzir uma perspectiva ou outra, pois estas não condizem com a realidade das pessoas com deficiência visual e tendem a perpetuar estigmas e preconceitos contra elas.

Published: April 2019

In renewable energy-based generation sources a phase locked loop is one of
the most popular synchronization techniques. A rapid and precise grid
voltage phase and frequency estimation under a wide spectrum of possible
grid disturbances is its main objective. This paper compares popular grid
synchronization algorithms on grid voltage anomalies. The compared
algorithms are divided in three groups: without filtering, with filtering in
synchronous reference frame and with filtering in stationary reference
frame. The behaviour of the algorithms is tested in a laboratory, using
dSpace 1103 as a platform on which the algorithms are compiled and OMICRON
CMC 356 as a programmable grid voltage generator. The benchmarks conducted
in this paper include voltage sags, grid voltages harmonics, DC offset and
frequency step change. The obtained results show that there are significant
differences in tested PLL responses for some networks disturbances.
Method of constructing a space-time grid of variable size images and its application in image processing of landfills
Authors: Richter Andrey , Ignatiev Vladimir , Kazaryan Maretta , Voronin Viacheslav , Shakhramanyan Mihail
Published: April 2019

The paper proposes a method of slicing space images into areas of varying
sizes to automate the image processing, beginning from the receipt of raw
data (download pictures) up to mapping of the underlying surface indices.
Indices calculation are based on one image (the surface and the vegetation
indices temperature, indices of objects detection on the ground and etc.)
and their time series (conducting temporal processing). The downloading of
the sources of satellite images algorithm from the sites archives of geodata
from the initial data download (the observation area, stage, time period,
etc.) is also represented. The procedure of cutting images into segments of
varying sizes is described. It allows to use the ?contents? of image both in
general and for each pixel of the earth's surface to have a whole time
series of the spectral brightness coefficients. Examples of time series of
geo-referenced source images and the individual indices of the underlying
surface are automatically generated by the algorithm method, for specific
problems of space debris monitoring (vegetation indices reaction, the degree
of soil degradation, detection of indices).

Published: April 2019

The proportion of patients with type 2 diabetes who achieve their glycemic goals remains low. We examined medical records and A1C results from patient visits to our referral diabetes center between 21 March to 20 July 2018. After stratifying patients into four groups—monotherapy, dual therapy, triple therapy, or insulin therapy—we found that the target A1C of ≤7.0% was achieved by 86% of patients and that A1C was uniformly low across the treatment categories. Our individualized approach, which included high use of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists and low use of sulfonylureas, may have contributed to these results.
Process control and quality assurance in remote laser beam welding by optical coherence tomography
Authors: Stadter Christian , Schmoeller Maximilian , Zeitler Martin , Tueretkan Volkan , Munzert Ulrich , Zaeh Michael F.
Published: April 2019

Remote laser beam welding significantly outperforms conventional joining techniques in terms of flexibility and productivity. This process benefits in particular from a highly focused laser radiation and thus from a well-defined heat input. The small spot sizes of high brilliance laser beam sources, however, require a highly dynamic and precise positioning of the beam. Also, the laser intensities typically applied in this context result in high process dynamics and in demand for a method to ensure a sufficient weld quality. A novel sensor concept for remote laser processing based on optical coherence tomography (OCT) was used for both quality assurance and edge tracking. The OCT sensor was integrated into a 3D scanner head equipped with an additional internal scanner to deflect the measuring beam independently of the processing beam. With this system, the surface topography of the process zone as well as the surrounding area can be recorded. Fundamental investigations on aluminum, copper, and galvanized steel were carried out. Initially, the influence of the material, the angle of incidence, the welding position within the scanning field, and the temperature on the OCT measuring signal were evaluated. Based on this, measuring strategies for edge tracking were developed and validated. It was shown that orthogonal measuring lines in the advance of the process zone can reliably track the edge of a fillet weld. By recording the topography in the trailing area of the process zone, it was possible to assess the weld seam quality. Comparing the results to microscopic measurements, it was shown that the system is capable of clearly identifying characteristic features of the weld seam. Also, it was possible to observe an influence of the welding process on the surface properties in the heat-affected zone, based on the quality of the measuring signal.

Incorporation of a polydioxanone absorbable plate in the successful repair of an iatrogenic oronasal fistula in a dog
Authors: Martin Stephen A. , Kirby Barbara M.
Published: April 2019

CASE DESCRIPTION

A 10-year-old castrated male Siberian Husky that had undergone complete excision of an oral plasmacytoma was evaluated because of development of a large oronasal fistula following failure of primary defect repair.

CLINICAL FINDINGS

Clinical examination findings for the dog were unremarkable. The dog was receiving nutrition via an esophagostomy tube, which had been placed at the time of mass excision. The dog was notably head shy. Intraoral examination following sedation revealed a large (approx 25 × 20-mm) oronasal fistula, which was oriented craniocaudally in the long axis and located at the rostral aspect of the soft palate. Maturation of tissues had been allowed following failure of the primary repair, and an epithelialized border was identified circumferentially.

TREATMENT AND OUTCOME

10 weeks after mass excision, revision surgery involving 2-layer closure augmented with a polydioxanone plate was performed. At a recheck examination 21 days after revision surgery, near-complete healing of the closure site with no repair compromise was evident, and the dog had returned to oral food intake. A follow-up evaluation 40 weeks later revealed complete healing, with a single 1-mm defect at the medial aspect of the left maxillary dental arcade, as a result of suspected repeated trauma at the level of teeth 209 and 210. This defect was not associated with any clinical abnormalities.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

The outcome for this dog indicated that use of a polydioxanone plate offers a means of robust, long-lasting, and absorbable augmentation of a traditional 2-layer repair of an oronasal fistula in this species.

Efecto del trading en la rentabilidad y la solvencia de los bancos colombianos
Authors: Carillo castro Ramiro Hernán , Gómez Mejía Alina
Published: April 2019

Los modelos bancarios adoptados por la banca colombiana, basados en los conceptos aplicados en economías de países desarrollados, han permitido que los establecimientos de crédito ofrezcan a sus clientes servicios nuevos y más sofisticados gracias al esquema multibanca. Sin embargo, algunos autores han sugerido que es posible que la creciente participación de los bancos en las operaciones de trading, debido a su estrategia de diversificación de los ingresos, pueda ir en detrimento de la actividad de intermediación y los esté exponiendo a riesgos tanto en la rentabilidad como en la solvencia. Esta investigación busca a través de la metodología de datos panel estudiar el efecto que tiene la diversificación de los ingresos de los bancos comerciales colombianos sobre la rentabilidad y la solvencia financiera, entre 2005 y 2014. Los resultados muestran que la diversificación de los ingresos a través del trading no tiene efectos sobre la solvencia y la rentabilidad de los bancos.
Diversification of the family business in emerging countries from the perspective of socio-emotional wealth. Literature Review
Authors: Corral Silvia Luján , Rébori Alfredo
Published: April 2019

The objective of this paper is to identify the relevant aspects studied in connection to the diversification of the family business that develops its activity in a business environment with unstable characteristics, considering those socio-emotional aspects that are particularly important for the family owner, and that could impact this election. The review reflects that research on the topic is in an incipient state. Studies conducted in the context of Taiwan predominate - where it is customary to establish business groups supported by strong links generated from a dominant family - and the strategic option of diversifying has been strongly associated with the purpose of securing family ownership and continuity in the business through generational transfer, dimensions that make up socio-emotional wealth. This paper contributes to reflect on the influence that family objectives exert on business decision-making and highlights the need for further research on the reasons behind the strategic choices of these organizations in different emerging markets.
Mud, value and welfare. An economic estimation of the impact in the Anchicayá river basin
Authors: Cortés Raúl Hernando , Riascos López Alejandra , Idrobo William Antonio
Published: April 2019

The implementation of modernizing projects in the midst of rural societies, in parallel with the great benefits in terms of regional and national growth, generates threats to local socio-ecological sustainability. Such is the case of the discharge of sludge generated by the Bajo Anchicayá dam in the Colombian Pacific in 2001. The economic assessment of the environmental impact is given to address the past, present and future impacts in cases such as the one described above where environmental goods and services as well as supervening exchange relationships are not guided by the logic of the market. However, this article attempts to account for the direction and scope of such effects, based on a pricing chrematistics and compensatory assessment claimed by court litigation by the affected communities under information restrictions and slightly commercialized economic dynamics. At the end, it was possible to establish the operability of the assessment methods, type of stated preferences, which simulate market conditions in favor of alternative strategies such as the transfer of benefits that while not infallible, with the lack of environmental accountancy, try to respect the spatial, time and socio-ecological complexity of territories such as the Pacific Coast.
Modern tocolysis and adverse effects of tocolytics
Authors: Baev O R , Vasilchenko O N , Karapetyan A O
Published: April 2019

Relevance. Toсolytic therapy is the only method that is used in the treatment of pregnant women with preterm labor. However, the effectiveness and safety of this therapy is still a matter of debate. One of the least studied issues of this problem is the safety of therapy, which is primarily manifested by the frequency of side effects. The aim is to carry out a comparative study of the safety of the most common tocolytic agents - atosiban, nifedipine and hexoprenaline sulfate. Material and methods. The study included 173 pregnant women with threatening premature births in a period of 28 to 34 weeks. In 54 cases, tocolysis with nifedipinum, 57 with atosiban, 62 with hexoprenaline was performed. To assess the effectiveness of tocolysis, clinical and instrumental methods of control (ultrasound with cervicometry) were used. The primary outcome points were the frequency of prolongation of pregnancy at 48 h and the incidence of side effects, including those requiring the termination of tocolysis. Results. Prolongation of pregnancy at 48 h was achieved in groups of nifedipine, atosiban and hexoprenaline sulfate, respectively in 46 (85.19%), 55 (96.49%) and 53 (77.40%) pregnant. Atosiban showed significantly higher efficacy. In 8 cases of tocolysis with nifedipine and 3 - hexoprenaline, the tocolysis protocol was not performed due to intolerance of treatment. In these observations, the highest frequency of preterm labor occurred. After excluding these observations from the analysis of differences in the frequency of prolongation of pregnancy was not. The overall frequency of adverse events in the groups was 38.9, 12.3 and 82.3%, and was significantly lower in the atosiban group than nifedipine and hexoprenaline sulfate. Conclusions. The effectiveness of tocolysis is affected by the tolerability of the drugs. Atosiban showed the best of the three drug safety profile. With comparable efficacy, atosiban has proven to be a drug that, to a greater extent than nifedipine and hexoprenaline sulfate, meets the current requirements for tocolytic drugs.

Published: April 2019

To reduce passenger congestion during morning rush hour, railway companies in the Tokyo metropolitan area have increased the number of trains. On the other hand, once a train exceeds a dwell time due to sudden events such as passengers rushing onto a train, passengers agglomerating in specific cars and doors, objects getting caught in doors etc., delays propagate to subsequent trains quickly. To evaluate daily train transport stability and countermeasures against train delays, a train travel time simulation model is needed. However, it has been difficult so far to replicate the occurrence of sudden events and the fluctuations in passenger demand. In this paper, we use detailed data based on dwell time structure and on-site inspections to construct a train travel time simulator. In addition, we evaluate several case-studies of timetable adjustments and passenger demand variations.
Train Rescheduling for an Urban Rail Transit Line under Disruptions
Authors: Chang Y. , Niu R. , Wang Yihui , Luan Xiaojie , D'Ariano Andrea , Samà Marcella
Published: April 2019

Disruptions in urban rail transit systems usually result in serious consequences due to the high density and the less flexibility. In this paper, we propose a novel mathematical model for handling a complete blockage of the double tracks for 5-10 minutes, e.g., lack of power at a station, where no train can pass this area during the disruption period. This paper considers the disruption management problem at a macroscopic level. However, operational constraints for the turnaround operation and for the rolling stock circulations are formulated. A mixed-integer non-linear programming (MINLP) model, which can then be transformed into mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) problem, is proposed to minimize the train delays and the number of canceled train services as well as to ensure a regular service for passengers. Numerical experiments are conducted based on real-world data from Beijing subway line 7 to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed model.

Fighting Social Normalisation in Generation Z: Trans* Youth Activism on Tumblr
Authors: Harris Joshua
Published: April 2019

Activism for socio-political movements has been affected by the progression of technology, enhancing the conditions under which advocates can communicate worldwide. Recently, Tumblr has announced accommodating large numbers of young transgender identified individuals. This article will offer an historical analysis of the progression of gay rights throughout the twentieth century, in comparison with the similar trajectory of the transgender movement now being catalysed by technology. Through discussing key arguments in transgender theory such as the pathologisation of Gender Dysphoria in the DSM; the heterogeneity of the transgender community; and rejecting essentialist ideas of gender: we can begin to understand the need for further integration of the rhetoric of gender fluidity into the public space, in which wrong body discourse and the politics of passing can be deconstructed. By dissecting the history of mainstream media representation of gay identities, we can now understand them to be in the final ‘respect’ stage, progressing through ‘non-recognition’, ‘ridicule’, and ‘regulation’ (Clark, 1969). A further comparison with transgender representation will highlight a non-recognition of the full heterogeneity of their community, which exemplifies the need for public discussion. Tumblr has a unique opportunity, as the biggest cyberspace community of young transgender identified individuals, to impact dialogues created around transgender politics. A discourse analysis of Tumblr’s platform evidences a need to optimise its usability for transgender members. The arguments will conclude proposing that Tumblr has the ability to create a space for influential dialogues that could expand past Tumblr and into wider public spaces.
Prospects of Oman as a Destination for Halal Tourism
Authors: Rehman Asad
Published: April 2019

Although a vast majority relates the concept of ‘halal’ or what is permissible in Islam to food only. However, halal industry covers many sectors such as food, fashion, transport, finance and even tourism. Halal tourism is not just about halal food, it is also about the overall experience, which is amenable with the Shariah (Islamic jurisprudence). Oman has a plethora of natural beauty and many places of interest for all types of tourists. It is one of the most secure and peaceful countries in the world. Having a well-developed Infrastructure, Oman is ready to take its tourism to new heights. The ever-hospitable Omanis are proud of their rich cultural and historical heritage. Thus, Oman appears to have all what it takes to become a prime destination for halal tourism. The objective of this study is to assess the prospects of Oman as a destination for halal tourism. Based on the interviews of experts like academicians, tourism professionals, officials and clerics, Oman’s competitiveness as a destination for halal tourism was assessed by developing a Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT) profile. The findings of the SWOT were compared with the data from the Global Muslim Travel Index (GMTI) from the year 2014 to 2018. Based on the analysis, Oman is found to have the right mix of environment and enabling services for halal tourism. However, it is found lacking in public transport, communication and customer outreach. Oman is also found to be losing its rank among the top 10 destinations for halal tourism to close competitors like Qatar, Bahrain, Morocco, etc. The concerned authorities need to make conscious efforts to resolve these issues as it becomes imperative for Oman to revamp its tourism strategy.

Majority of studies proved that labor mobility and the effect of immigration differs with respect to the business cycle. The aim of the paper is to investigate differences in workers allocation within European countries during recession and expansion period. The presented analysis split European counties on two groups: a) West and South Europe; b) Middle and East Europe (post-communist economies). The specialization of workers is studied concentrating on differences between natives and immigrants with secondary or lower education. For the expansion period was found a sizable relocation of native workers to occupations with more interactive rather than manual content after immigration in West and South European counties. This effect was not found for recession period and for post-communist economies.

Un nuevo método de cartografía del paisaje para altas montañas tropicales
Authors: Serrano Giné David , García Romero Arturo , García Sánchez Laeticia Azucena , Salinas Chávez Eduardo
Published: April 2019

Este artículo da a conocer un nuevo método para el estudio y cartografía del paisaje en altas montañas tropicales, a partir de planteamientos holísticos y paramétricos que conceden gran importancia a la dimensión espacial del paisaje. El método se estructura en tres niveles escalares: Nivel I, con validez cartográfica a escala 1:100.000; Nivel II, con validez cartográfica a 1:75.000; y Nivel III, con validez cartográfica a 1:50.000, siendo las unidades de paisaje del Nivel I de gran extensión y poca homogeneidad y las de Nivel III de menor extensión y mayor homogeneidad. Este método ha sido validado en altas montañas tropicales del centro de México y en este artículo presentamos, por su significado ambiental e interés para la planificación territorial, el caso de la cuenca del río Cuautitlán, en las cercanías de la Ciudad de México, donde fueron identificadas, delimitadas y cartografiadas tres unidades del Nivel I, cinco del Nivel II y ochenta y tres del Nivel III.
La repercusión turística de la declaración de Monfragüe como Parque Nacional
Authors: Rengifo Gallego Juan Ignacio , Sánchez Martín José Manuel
Published: April 2019

Las áreas protegidas no han dejado de incrementar su superficie en el último siglo, al tiempo que se han ido creando diferentes categorías entre las que se encuentran los Parques Nacionales. En este artículo se parte de la hipótesis de que los Parques Nacionales son generadores de actividad turística, de acuerdo con lo expresado en diferentes investigaciones y la propia normativa. Por ello, teniendo en cuenta esta premisa, el objetivo de este artículo se centra en analizar si tras la declaración del territorio de Monfragüe como Parque Nacional (año 2007), se ha dejado notar este efecto en los municipios que componen su área de influencia, tanto a nivel de crecimiento de la oferta alojativa como de la demanda. De los resultados obtenidos se colige que el impacto ha sido limitado. Por un parte se constata un crecimiento sustancial de los alojamientos rurales y del interés que suscita este espacio natural entre los visitantes que llegan a Extremadura, si bien no se ha podido acreditar un crecimiento sustancial del número de visitantes en el periodo 2007-2016, de acuerdo con las fuentes consultadas.
Extremos hidroclimáticos y recursos hídricos: estado de conocimiento en el suroeste bonaerense, Argentina
Authors: Casado Ana , Campo Alicia M.
Published: April 2019

La recurrencia de sequías e inundaciones representa uno de los principales desafíos para el manejo sostenible de los recursos hídricos en el suroeste bonaerense. Este trabajo reúne y sintetiza los principales avances en el entendimiento de la variabilidad natural del clima que caracteriza la región y de sus repercusiones sobre la estabilidad de los recursos hídricos locales. Se exploran los procesos que determinan la variabilidad espacial y temporal de la precipitación y se examinan los mecanismos de respuesta hidrológica frente a extremos de precipitación. Se proporciona asimismo un inventario de los eventos hidroclimáticos extremos registrados en los últimos años, poniendo de relieve la multiplicidad de consecuencias negativas para la sociedad local. Los resultados subrayan la necesidad de conducir un análisis integrado que combine el complejo de procesos físicos y humanos que intervienen en torno a la ocurrencia y recurrencia de eventos hidroclimáticos extremos en el suroeste bonaerense y que considere la diversidad de daños potenciales de los mismos a escalas espaciotemporales anidadas.
