A limnological study of Lake Patzcuaro, Mexico with a consideration of the applicability of remote sensing techniques
This thesis presents the results of a hydrobiological study with implications for lake management obtained during six months of field work in Lake Patzcuaro, Michoacan, Mexico. The conventional data are coupled with surveys made with multispectral satellite imagery.
Lake Patzcuaro, Michoacan, Mexico is a tropical high altitude freshwater lake located in the southern edge of the Mexican plateau. The lake originated from tecto-volcanic processes associated with the Eje Neovolcanico Transversal during the late Tertiary and Quaternary periods.
Data for 25 morphometrical parameters describing the geomorphology of Lake Patzcuaro were derived from an up-to- date bathymetric survey with contour lines at 1.0 m intervals: Maximum depths were observed in the northern part of the lake whereas considerable shallow areas are developing in the south: insulosity is continuously modified due to certain areas becoming part of the mainland and the appearance of new islands with increasing shallowness and man-made channels.
The lake is an endorheic basin and the annual water balance is primarily controlled by differences between rainfall and evaporation. Since annual evaporation is higher than rainfall, it is considered that net water inputs to the lake come as seepage from the drainage area. However, by using a simple mass balance simulation model it is illustrated that the contribution of seepage is being reduced due to the continuous deterioration of the catchment area.
The lake is well mixed and high oxygen levels are always present from surface to bottom. The lake is alkaline- carbonate with moderate levels of hardness and high concentrations of total phosphorus, chlorophyll-a and suspended solids. By comparing three conventional trophic state indices and input-output phosphorus models, Lake Patzcuaro is considered to be mostly eutrophic with some isolated mesotrophic and, oligo-mesotrophic areas. High turbidities are observed possibly due to volcanic silt, raw sewage and increasing erosion loads. It is considered that Lake Patzcuaro is principally 1ight-1imited due to scattering and attenuation effects from inorganic materials.
A predictive model of water quality variables has been developed for SPOT-1 multispectral imagery, and applied.to Lake Patzcuaro. By using canonical and principal component analysis it is shown that, at most, two water quality variables, chlorophyll-a and suspended solids concentration, can be derived from the SPOT data. Having established the independent predictiviness of a set of empirical relations between the SPOT data and the water quality parameters, the whole lake was analysed to reveal the spatial distribution of chlorophyll-a and suspended solids. It is revealed that a very dense algal bloom had occured during the period of study. No bloom of such intensity has ever been observed before in Lake Patzcuaro. The applicability of SPOT imagery to water quality monitoring is clearly demonstrated. The cost-effectiveness of remote sensing techniques for water quality mapping and lake management is discussed using the Lake Patzcuaro as an example
Public Debt Frontiers: The Greek Case
This paper attempts to quantify the maximum amount of debt that a government can sustain by itself, i.e., the limits to public indebtedness. Using a Dynamic General Equilibrium model where the government is fully characterized, we compute the steady state inverse relationship between the public debt to output ratio and the size of the government, measured as the total public expenditures to output ratio. This line is the budget constraint of a government in steady state. Calibration of the model for the Greek economy to fiscal targets reveals that, for the period just before the current recession, i.e. 2002-2006, the debt to GDP ratio was very close to the calculate limits wich depends dramatically on the interest rates. However, short after de financial crisis of 2008, sustained deficits drove the Greek economy to a point where the Greek Government crossed the debt limit where the country could only meet its debt obligations only if international investors where willing to lend. We conclude that the hight initial level of debts previous the crisis together with the rise in interest rates were the causes of the posterior debt crisis.Universidad de Málaga.

Public debt frontiers: The greek case
Las causas de la crisis de deuda Griega son otras distintas de la indisciplina fiscal. Los indicadores macroeconómicos desde el año 200 a 2006 no indicaban nada que pudiera presagiar el desastre. Causas de tipo estratégico en el manejo de la deuda parecen más razonables a la hora de explicar el fenómenoUniversidad de Málaga. Campus de Excelencia Internacional Andalucía Tech
Economía sostenible : ¿mito o realidad?
El impacto económico sobre el entorno es clave a la hora de valorar los precios de un determinado
bien, ya que su cantidad disminuirá y será sustituido por otro bien de menor coste. A esto se une una
sostenibilidad amenazada por el aumento de la población y del uso abusivo de los recursos naturales
Fiscal policy, the current account, and the twin deficits hypothesis
Relationship between Öscal policy and the current account.
Traditional view suggests that a Öscal expansion should lead to a
worsening in the current account, contrary to the Ricardian view, in
which there is no systematic relationship between budget and current
account deficits.Universidad de Málaga. Campus de Excelencia Internacional Andalucía Tec
El trade marketing y su impacto en la actitud del retail tradicional de consumo masivo en la ciudad de Trujillo en el I trimestre del año 2017
La presente investigación se enfocó en el Trade Marketing, en especial en el llamado retail
tradicional. Como se sabe esta técnica es ampliamente utilizada por los fabricantes,
particularmente aquellos que elaboran productos de consumo masivo, consiste en satisfacer
las necesidades no del consumidor final, sino del intermediario. Por supuesto, que la
satisfacción del intermediario se da mediante la adaptación del producto, servicio de
merchandising y material promocional, los cuales inciden directamente en la decisión de
compra del consumidor final.
En tal sentido este trabajo tuvo por objetivo general determinar el impacto del Trade
Marketing en la actitud de los titulares de los negocios retail de consumo masivo en la ciudad
de Trujillo, en el 2017. La técnica empleada fue la de la encuesta y la población objeto del
estudio fueron los titulares de los negocios retail de consumo masivo de la ciudad de Trujillo
para lo cual se obtuvo una muestra de 196 puntos de venta. Los resultados apuntan a
confirmar la hipótesis planteada en el sentido de que el Trade Marketing tiene un impacto
positivo en la actitud del retail tradicional de consumo masivo en Trujllo.This research focused in Trade Marketing especially in the traditional retail. As it is known,
this technique is widely used by manufacturers particularly by those who elaborate massive
consume products and consists in satisfying the needs not of the final consumer but of the
intermediates. Of course, the satisfaction of the retail occurs through product adapting,
merchandising service and promotional material, which influences in the purchase decision
of the final consumer.
In that sense this research has a general purpose to determinate the impact of the Trade
Marketing in the attitude of the owners of the small massive consume retail in Trujillo City
in 2017 year. A survey was applied as research technique and the population for this work
were all the owners of the massive consume traditional retail of Trujillo City. A sample of
196 stores was selected. The results confirm the hypothesis in the sense that the Trade
Marketing has a positive impact in the attitude of the traditional massive consume traditional
retail in Trujillo.Tesi
Coupling of sensors and machine learning algorithms in the qualitative analysis of wine
This article belongs to the Proceedings of The 8th International Symposium on Sensor ScienceThis work attempts the identification of the production year, the cultivar's region and the aging method used in the elaboration of different Spanish red wines, all from the "tempranillo" grape variety. The identification of such characteristics relies on the use of a voltammetric electronic tongue (ET) system formed by modified graphite-epoxy electrodes (GEC) and metallic electrodes to collect a set of six voltammograms per sample, and different chemometric tools to accomplish the final identifications. A large sample set that included 199 different wine samples from commercial and own elaboration origin were analysed with the electronic tongue system, using the cyclic voltammetry technique and without any sample pre-treatment. To process the extremely complex and high-dimensionality generated data, a compression strategy was used for the acquired voltammograms, using discrete wavelet transform (DWT). This treatment reduced the information to ca. 10%, preserving significant features from the voltammetric signals. Compressed data was evaluated firstly by unsupervised methods, i.e., principal component analysis (PCA), without much success as it was found that such methods were unable to unravel the patterns contained within such complex data samples. Finally, the processed electrochemical information was evaluated by supervised methods to accomplish the proper identification; among those methods were linear discriminant analysis (LDA), supported vector machines (SVM) or artificial neural networks (ANN). The best results were obtained using artificial neural networks (ANNs), achieving 96.1% of correct classification for bottled year, 86.8% for elaboration region (protected designation of origin) and 98.6% for maturation type with or without use of wood barrel
