Impactos ambientales significativos generados por la actividad de la empresa Alpes Chiclayo S.A.C. en la producción de conservas de frijol de palo, distrito de Pacora, Lambayeque, Perú
El objetivo del presente trabajo fue evaluar los impactos ambientales significativos generados por la actividad de la empresa Alpes Chiclayo S.A.C. en la producción de conserva de frijol de palo, midiendo las variables ambientales: la calidad del aire para medir NO2, O3, SO2 y H2S de acuerdo a lo contemplado en el D.S. 074-PCM, niveles de ruido en los diferentes puntos de la planta, material particulado midiendo los parámetros MP10 y MP2.5 y la calidad de agua fue determinada por el método de Plasma Inducido Acoplado (ICP). Para evaluar los impactos ambientales se utilizó el método de matrices bidimensionales que plotea acciones versus factores ambientales y utilizando el método de Fisher Davies se calificaron los impactos ambientales negativos en una escala de poco significativo, significativo y muy significativo, severo y critico anteponiendo el signo (-). Para los impactos positivos se antepuso el signo (+). Los resultados del monitoreo realizado utilizando el método de matriz bidimensional determinó que los impactos ambientales generados durante el proceso productivo fueron calificados como poco significativos; los impactos positivos fueron sobre la población, agua, suelo y paisaje. Los impactos negativos fueron sobre el suelo, agua y aire. Se concluyó que para mitigar los impactos ambientales identificados se ha elaborado el Programa de Adecuación y Manejo Ambiental (PAMA) para la empresa, orientado al logro del desarrollo sostenible y al paradigma basura cero con la finalidad de mejorar la calidad de vida de la población y del ambiente
Evidencias acústicas de procesos paralelos al talud asociados con depósitos de movimiento en masa en el talud inferior de la Isla de Madeira (Atlántico Central Oriental)
The Madeira Island lower slope has been build-up mostly by along slope-processes
associated with mass movement deposits as seen in GEBCO bathymetry, multibeam bathymetry,
Parasound echosounder profiles and multichannel seismic reflection profiles. A plastered contourite
drift (Madeira Drift) developed on this lower slope, being composed of seismic units D1, D2 and D3.
The most probable water mass responsible for its deposition is the Antarctica Bottom Water
(AABW). The youngest sediments of seismic units D2 and D3 are affected by gravity-driven
processes, probably slumps and debris flows, which moved downslope towards west. Parasound
profiles show evidences of such mass movements on present-day seabottom (e.g. diffraction
hyperbolae echoes) but also of past-events buried within the contourite sediments. These older
debris flows are recognized by semitransparent/transparent acoustic facies and lenticular shape.Versión del edito

Shelves of the Iberian Peninsula and the Balearic Islands (I): Morphology and sediment types
Here we present a synthesis of bedforms and sediment types on the shelves surrounding the Iberian Peninsula and the Balearic Islands, after the integration several pieces of bathymetric, morphological and sedimentological datasets. The Iberian and Balearic shelves are divided into segments according to the largescale margin configuration, fluvial sediment supply and hydrodynamic regime. Their geological settings and large-scale sedimentation patterns place the investigated shelves into two broad categories: abrupt, steep and narrow sediment-starved shelves, illustrated by the Cantabrian shelf, and gentle, smooth and wide sediment- fed shelves, such as the shelves off some major flivial systems. An in-depth classification was subsequently attempted, based on morpho-sedimentary types. Under this approach, the Iberian and Balearic shelves can be classified as: (1) storm-dominated shelves, with erosional rocky floors, frequent abrasion surfaces and coarse-grained sediments; (2) current-dominated shelves, showing a good equilibriumbetween sediment fluxes and coastal and shallow ocean circulation, with laterally extensive muddy belts; (3) sediment supply-dominated shelves, where extensive subaqueous deltas develop off river mouths; and (4) wave-dominated shelves that occur off coastal stretches with minor and/or multiple fluvial sediment sources and enhanced littoral current
Psicoterapia y problemas actuales. Debates y alternativas
Ante la proliferación de fenómenos psicosociales, como el suicidio, la violencia sexual, los trastornos del comportamiento alimenticio y las crisis de identidad, emerge esta obra, como una respuesta reflexiva que aborda desde una pluralidad de perspectivas el quehacer psicoterapéutico, para favorecer una comprensión amplia de estas situaciones problema y ofrecer, desde la experiencia de sus autores, alternativas de entendimiento y de desarrollo de tratamientos para la atención de quienes las viven. El objetivo es compartir una comprensión innovadora de la práctica del psicoterapeuta, desde una mirada caracterizada por el diálogo interdisciplinario. Ello a partir de la recuperación de las estrategias implementadas frente a distintas coyunturas, así como a través de la reflexión personal en torno a la formación y el ejercicio profesional del psicoterapeuta, que pueden favorecer la retroalimentación y la generación de formas de intervención más adecuadas a la realidad de algunos dilemas contemporáneos y de los entornos en que estos se desenvuelven. Un libro recomendable para estudiantes, docentes y profesionales en el campo de la psicoterapia y la salud psicosocial.ITESO. A.C
Hematology and serum biochemistry values of free-ranging Iberian wolves (Canis lupus) trapped by leg-hold snares
Hematology and serum biochemistry are important tools in assessing the health and physiological status of wildlife populations. Nevertheless, studies on free-ranging wolves (Canis lupus) are scarce, and no reference values are available neither for Iberian wolves nor for wolves captured with leghold snares. We report 37 hematology and serum biochemistry variables obtained from 26 free-ranging Iberian wolves captured with leg-hold snares between 2007 and 2014, including variables previously not reported in the literature. The values obtained are similar to the published reference intervals for Scandinavian wolves captured by darting from a helicopter, except for higher values for mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), red blood cell distribution width (RDW), leukocyte count, creatinine kinase (CK), ?-globulins, and total bilirubin (TBIL) and lower values for alkaline phosphatase (ALP). We propose that differences in leukocyte count, CK, and TBIL are related to the method of capture, while differences in RDW, MCHC, ALP, and ?-globulins could reflect physiological adaptations to environmental conditions, sampling, or pre-analytical artifacts. Lymphocyte count was lower and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio was significantly higher in older, reproductive females, while ALP and phosphorus were higher in juvenile wolves. For the first time, we describe hematology and serum biochemistry values of free-ranging Iberian wolves captured with leg-hold snares. The data reported here is the first published reference for wolves captured with similar methods and for monitoring Iberian wolves populations’ physiological and health status.We thank Nuria Fandos and Carla Ferreira, rangers from Xunta de Galicia and Parque Nacional de los Picos de Europa, and volunteers who helped during the trapping sessions. The wolves were captured under projects financed by Associacao de Conservacao do Habitat do Lobo Iberico (ACHLI) in Portugal and by Picos de Europa National Park, Ministerio de Agricultura, Alimentacion y Medio Ambiente, and Xunta de Galicia in Spain.
