Source gases: Concentrations, emissions, and trends

Source gases are defined as those gases that influence levels of stratospheric ozone (O3) by transporting species containing halogen, hydrogen, and nitrogen to the stratosphere. Examples are the CFC's, methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O). Other source gases that also come under consideration in an atmospheric O3 context are those that are involved in the O3 or hydroxyl (OH) radical chemistry of the troposphere. Examples are CH4, carbon monoxide (CO), and nonmethane hydrocarbons (NMHC's). Most of the source gases, along with carbon dioxide (CO2) and water vapor (H2O), are climatically significant and thus affect stratospheric O3 levels by their influence on stratospheric temperatures. Carbonyl sulphide (COS) could affect stratospheric O3 through maintenance of the stratospheric sulphate aerosol layer, which may be involved in heterogeneous chlorine-catalyzed O3 destruction. The previous reviews of trends and emissions of source gases, either from the context of their influence on atmospheric O3 or global climate change, are updated. The current global abundances and concentration trends of the trace gases are given in tabular format

Use of UAV for the generation of digital cartography

El ser humano en su afán de reconocer el lugar donde habita, históricamente ha intentado fotografiar desde más allá de donde sus ojos le permiten observar la superficie terrestre. La fotogrametría para esta tarea ha sido fundamental en la historia del hombre, siendo el pionero Gaspard-Félix Tournachon en el año 1859 desde un globo cautivo obtener la primera fotografía área de la superficie terrestre, Hoy en día hemos sido capaces de poder observar y plasmar en imágenes la tierra desde el espacio de grandes extensiones de del globo. Es así que por décadas ha teniendo mejoras ya sea en la óptica, la aeronáutica y también en los procesos de esta técnica de teledetección por diversos motivos como fueron las guerras mundiales a principios del siglo XX y también en la carrera espacial en épocas de polarización del mundo a mediados del mismo siglo. En los últimos años no ha estado exenta de esta evolución significativa. Hoy en día vivimos en un importante momento tecnológico de la historia de la humanidad donde día a día la tecnología cambia y crece exponencialmente y esto no deja atrás nuestro campo de desempeño en las ciencias de la tierra ni tampoco a la fotogrametría, sino más bien avanzan juntas. Hoy por hoy hemos logrado volar naves desde la tierra, sin ir a bordo de ellas. Estas aeronaves son denominadas como UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) o vehículo Aéreo No Tripulado (VANT), comúnmente «dron». Un VANT es un vehículo sin tripulación, capaz de mantener de manera autónoma un nivel de vuelo controlado, sostenido y propulsado por un motor de explosión, eléctrico o de reacción. A los cuales podemos montar una cámara o sensor, con esta a bordo, somos capaces de poder captar información de la superficie terrestre y con ello, la generación de ortoimagenes logrando así cartografía a escalas grandes de áreas pequeñas, en poco tiempo y abaratando costos de forma sustancial

La observación sistemática de vecindarios: el caso de Chile y sus perspectivas para trabajo social

El estudio acerca de las características de los vecindarios y sus efectos sobre las personas ha llegado a ser un área de creciente atención por parte de investigadores de diversas disciplinas en países desarrollados. Aunque actualmente existen diversas metodologías para estudiar efectos del vecindario, una de las más utilizadas es la Observación Sistemática de Vecindarios –Systematic Social Observation SSO, en inglés—porque permite recolectar información acerca de diversas características del entorno físico, social, ambiental y económico de los vecindarios donde se aplica. El objetivo de este artículo es (i) dar a conocer sumariamente algunas investigaciones influyentes sobre efectos del vecindario en Estados Unidos, ii) describir cómo se diseñó e implementó la Observación Sistemática de Vecindarios en la ciudad de Santiago de Chile, iii) señalar algunos facilitadores y obstaculizadores de la implementación del proyecto y, finalmente iv) enunciar posibles contribuciones y limitaciones que esta metodología ofrecería al trabajo social en Chile.The study of neighborhood characteristics and their effects on individuals has become an area of increasing attention by scholars from various disciplines in developed countries. Although there are various methods to study neighborhoods and their impact on human populations, one of the most used is the Systematic Social Observation –Observación Sistemática de Vecindarios (OSV), in Spanish—because it allows the collection of information about various features of the physical, social, environmental and economic characteristics of neighborhoods. The purpose of this article is to (i) briefly present some research on neighborhood effects influential in the U.S., ii) describe how they Systematic Social Observation was designed and implemented in the city of Santiago, Chile, iii) discuss some facilitators and obstacles of the implementation process and, finally iv) list possible contributions and limitations this approach would offer the profession of social work in Chile.https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4004073/Accepted manuscrip

Estimation in the Birnbaum-Saunders distribution based on scale-mixture of normals and the EM-algorithm

Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)Scale mixtures of normal (SMN) distributions are used for modeling symmetric data. Members of this family have appealing properties such as robust estimates, easy number generation, and efficient computation of the ML estimates via the EM-algorithm. The Birnbaum-Saunders (BS) distribution is a positively skewed model that is related to the normal distribution and has received considerable attention. We introduce a type of BS distributions based on SMN models, produce a lifetime analysis, develop the EM-algorithm for ML estimation of parameters, and illustrate the obtained results with real data showing the robustness of the estimation procedure.332171191Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)FONDECYT [1080326, 1090265]DIPUV [29-2006]Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)FONDECYT [1080326, 1090265]DIPUV [29-2006

Slow ionized wind and rotating disklike system associated with the high-mass young stellar object G345.4938+01.4677

We report the detection, made using ALMA, of the 92 GHz continuum and hydrogen recombination lines (HRLs) H40$\alpha$, H42$\alpha$, and H50$\beta$ emission toward the ionized wind associated with the high-mass young stellar object G345.4938+01.4677. This is the luminous central dominating source located in the massive and dense molecular clump associated with IRAS 16562$-$3959. The HRLs exhibit Voigt profiles, a strong signature of Stark broadening. We successfully reproduce the observed continuum and HRLs simultaneously using a simple model of a slow ionized wind in local thermodynamic equilibrium, with no need a high-velocity component. The Lorentzian line wings imply electron densities of $5\times10^7$ cm$^{-3}$ on average. In addition, we detect SO and SO$_2$ emission arising from a compact ($\sim3000$ AU) molecular core associated with the central young star. The molecular core exhibits a velocity gradient perpendicular to the jet-axis, which we interpret as evidence of rotation. The set of observations toward G345.4938+01.4677 are consistent with it being a young high-mass star associated with a slow photo-ionized wind.Comment: (Accepted by ApJ

Global and local environmental changes as drivers of Buruli ulcer emergence

International audienceMany emerging infectious diseases are caused by generalist pathogens that infect and transmit via multiple host species with multiple dissemination routes, thus confounding the understanding of pathogen transmission pathways from wildlife reservoirs to humans. The emergence of these pathogens in human populations has frequently been associated with global changes, such as socio-economic, climate or biodiversity modifications, by allowing generalist pathogens to invade and persist in new ecological niches, infect new host species, and thus change the nature of transmission pathways. Using the case of Buruli ulcer disease, we review how land-use changes, climatic patterns and biodiversity alterations contribute to disease emergence in many parts of the world. Here we clearly show that Mycobacterium ulcerans is an environmental pathogen characterized by multi-host transmission dynamics and that its infectious pathways to humans rely on the local effects of global environmental changes. We show that the interplay between habitat changes (for example, deforestation and agricultural land-use changes) and climatic patterns (for example, rainfall events), applied in a local context, can lead to abiotic environmental changes and functional changes in local biodiversity that favor the pathogen’s prevalence in the environment and may explain disease emergence
