Celosía set di Lucidi, juego de transparencias desde nuevas piezas cerámicas: Lattice set di Lucidi, transparency game from new ceramic pieces

In architecture it is necessary to always articulate the guidelines of comfort in the designs, and these can be very delimited according to the comfort one wishes to solve, so to speak of thermal comfort can result from the diverse use of passive and active techniques of bioclimatic Focused on the solution of passive techniques, the lattices are presented, as a technique of ventilation and natural lighting to the architectural spaces, but at the same time it is a technique with little innovation and technological updating, for which reason the present investigation proposes the design of lattices as passive thermal comfort techniques applied to facades from the combination of metal structures that serve as an assembly between the modules. The design starts from a methodology of three phases, which present analysis of the context, documentary research, and design proposal, articulating specialized software such as AutoCAD and Revit for modeling and solar analysis, and applying similar research results in the planimetry of the piece. The result is a design of a lattice without enamel that can be used from non-structural modules such as the skin of the building, which has a particular design that responds to thermal comfort components and technical and technological innovation in the San José de Cúcuta region, in Norte de Santander.En la arquitectura es necesario articular siempre los lineamientos de confort en los diseños, y estos pueden estar muy delimitados según sea el bienestar que se desee resolver, por lo que hablar de confort térmico puede dar como resultado el uso diversas de técnicas pasivas y activas de bioclimática. Enfocado en la solución de técnicas pasivas se presentan las celosías, como método de ventilación e iluminación natural en los espacios arquitectónicos, pero que a su vez es un sistema con poca innovación y actualización tecnológica, por lo que la presente investigación plantea el diseño de celosías como técnicas pasivas para la comodidad térmica aplicado en fachadas desde la combinación de estructuras metálicas que cumplan la función de ensamble entre los módulos. El diseño parte desde una metodología de tres fases, que presentan análisis del contexto, investigación documental, y propuesta de diseño, articulando software especializados como AutoCAD Y Revit para el modelado y análisis solar, aplicando resultados de investigaciones similares en la planimetría de la pieza. El resultado es de diseño de una celosía sin esmalte que puede ser usada desde módulos no estructurales como la piel del edificio, que presenta un desempeño particular que responde a componentes de confort térmico y de innovación técnica y tecnológica en la región de San José de Cúcuta, en Norte de Santander

NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES: a data set on carnivore distribution in the Neotropics

Mammalian carnivores are considered a key group in maintaining ecological health and can indicate potential ecological integrity in landscapes where they occur. Carnivores also hold high conservation value and their habitat requirements can guide management and conservation plans. The order Carnivora has 84 species from 8 families in the Neotropical region: Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Otariidae; Phocidae; Procyonidae; and Ursidae. Herein, we include published and unpublished data on native terrestrial Neotropical carnivores (Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Procyonidae; and Ursidae). NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES is a publicly available data set that includes 99,605 data entries from 35,511 unique georeferenced coordinates. Detection/non-detection and quantitative data were obtained from 1818 to 2018 by researchers, governmental agencies, non-governmental organizations, and private consultants. Data were collected using several methods including camera trapping, museum collections, roadkill, line transect, and opportunistic records. Literature (peer-reviewed and grey literature) from Portuguese, Spanish and English were incorporated in this compilation. Most of the data set consists of detection data entries (n = 79,343; 79.7%) but also includes non-detection data (n = 20,262; 20.3%). Of those, 43.3% also include count data (n = 43,151). The information available in NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES will contribute to macroecological, ecological, and conservation questions in multiple spatio-temporal perspectives. As carnivores play key roles in trophic interactions, a better understanding of their distribution and habitat requirements are essential to establish conservation management plans and safeguard the future ecological health of Neotropical ecosystems. Our data paper, combined with other large-scale data sets, has great potential to clarify species distribution and related ecological processes within the Neotropics. There are no copyright restrictions and no restriction for using data from this data paper, as long as the data paper is cited as the source of the information used.

NEOTROPICAL ALIEN MAMMALS: a data set of occurrence and abundance of alien mammals in the Neotropics

Biological invasion is one of the main threats to native biodiversity. For a species to become invasive, it must be voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into a nonnative habitat. Mammals were among first taxa to be introduced worldwide for game, meat, and labor, yet the number of species introduced in the Neotropics remains unknown. In this data set, we make available occurrence and abundance data on mammal species that (1) transposed a geographical barrier and (2) were voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into the Neotropics. Our data set is composed of 73,738 historical and current georeferenced records on alien mammal species of which around 96% correspond to occurrence data on 77 species belonging to eight orders and 26 families. Data cover 26 continental countries in the Neotropics, ranging from Mexico and its frontier regions (southern Florida and coastal-central Florida in the southeast United States) to Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay, and the 13 countries of Caribbean islands. Our data set also includes neotropical species (e.g., Callithrix sp., Myocastor coypus, Nasua nasua) considered alien in particular areas of Neotropics. The most numerous species in terms of records are from Bos sp. (n = 37,782), Sus scrofa (n = 6,730), and Canis familiaris (n = 10,084); 17 species were represented by only one record (e.g., Syncerus caffer, Cervus timorensis, Cervus unicolor, Canis latrans). Primates have the highest number of species in the data set (n = 20 species), partly because of uncertainties regarding taxonomic identification of the genera Callithrix, which includes the species Callithrix aurita, Callithrix flaviceps, Callithrix geoffroyi, Callithrix jacchus, Callithrix kuhlii, Callithrix penicillata, and their hybrids. This unique data set will be a valuable source of information on invasion risk assessments, biodiversity redistribution and conservation-related research. There are no copyright restrictions.
