From MuSIASEM theory to practice: report and reflections from field research in Kampot province, Cambodia

This document contains a report and summary of the field research activities in a rural community of rice farmers in Kampot province, Cambodia in 2011, which I conducted within the context of my PhD research at ICTA-UAB (Institute of Environmental Science and Technology, Autonomous University of Barcelona, Spain). The purpose of the field research was to gather data for a MuSIASEM analysis (Multi-Scale Integrated Analysis of Societal and Ecosystem Metabolism) at the village and household level, in order to analyze the multidimensional challenges that small farmers may face nowadays within the context of global rural change and declining access to land. While the literature on MuSIASEM offers a great variety of theoretical explanations and practical applications, there is little information available for students regarding the practical steps required for doing a MuSIASEM analysis at the local level. Within this context, this report offers not only a documentation of the field research design and data collection methods, but further provides a general overview on some organizational and preparative aspects, including some personal reflections, that one may face when preparing and conducting field research for MuSIASEM analysis. In summary, this document thus serves three objectives: (i) to assure methodological transparency for the future work, based on the collected data during field research, (ii) to share my personal experience on the preparative and practical steps required for field research and data collection for a MuSIASEM analysis at the local level, and (iii) to make available for the further interested reader some more detailed background information on the case study village.

Late Labradorian metamorphism and anorthosite-granitoid intrusion, Cape-Caribou River allochthon, Grenville Province, Labrador - Evidence from U-Pb geochronology

In the Cape Caribou River allochthon (CCRA), metaigneous and gneissic units occur as a shallowly plunging synform in the hanging wall of the Grand Lake thrust system (GLTS), a Grenvillian structure that forms the boundary between the Mealy Mountains and Groswater Bay terranes. The layered rocks of the CCRA are cut by a stockwork of monzonite dykes related to the Dome Mountain suite and by metadiabase-amphibolite dykes that probably form part of the ca. 1380 Ma Mealy swarm. The mafic dykes appear to postdate much of the development of subhorizontal metamorphic layering within the lower parts of the CCRA. The uppermost (least metamorphosed) units of the CCRA, the North West River anorthosite-metagabbro and the Dome Mountain monzonite suite, have been dated at 1625 +/- 6 and 1626 +/- 2 Ma, respectively. An amphibolite unit that concordantly underlies the anorthosite-metagabbro and is intruded discordantly by monzonite dykes has given metamorphic ages of 1660 +/- 3 and 1631 +/- 2 Ma. Granitoid gneisses that form the lowest level of the CCRA have given a migmatization age of 1622 +/- 6 Ma. The effects of Grenvillian metamorphism become apparent in the lower levels of the allochthon where gneisses, amphibolite, and mafic dykes have given new generation zircon ages of 1008 +/- 2, 1012 +/- 3, and 1011 +/- 3 Ma, respectively. A posttectonic pegmatite has also given zircon and monazite ages of 1016(-3)(+7) and 1013 +/- 3 Ma, respectively. Although these results indicate new growth of Grenvillian zircon, this process was generally not accompanied by penetrative deformation or melting. Thus, the formation of gneissic fabrics and the overall layered nature of the lower CCRA are a result primarily of Labradorian (1660-1620 Ma) tectonism and intrusion, and probably reflect early movement on an ancestral GLTS. Grenvillian heating and metamorphism (up to granulite facies) was strongly concentrated towards the base of the CCRA and probably occurred during northwestward thrusting of the allochthon over the Groswater Bay terrane.

Oxygen isotope compositions of iron oxides from high-grade BIF-hosted iron ore deposits of the Central Hamersley Province, Western Australia: Constraints on the evolution of hydrothermal fluids

The Hamersley province of northwest Australia is one of the world's premier iron ore regions with high-grade martite-microplaty hematite iron ore deposits mostly hosted within banded iron formation (BIF) sequences of the Brockman Iron Formations of the Hamersley Group. These high-grade iron ores contain between 60 and 68 wt percent Fe, and formed by the multistage interaction of hydrothermal fluids with the host BIF formation. The oxygen isotope compositions of magnetite and hematite from BIF, hydrothermal alteration assemblages, and high-grade iron Ore were analyzed from the Mount Tom Price, Paraburdoo, and Charmar iron ore deposits. The delta(18)O values of magnetite and hematite from hydrothermal alteration assemblages and high-grade iron ore range from -9.0 to -2.9 per mil, a depletion of 5 to 15 per mil relative to the host BIF. The delta(18)O values are spatially controlled by faults within the deposits, a response to higher fluid flux and larger influence the isotopic compositions by the hydrothermal fluids. The oxygen isotope composition of hydrothermal fluids (delta(18)O(fluid)) indicates that the decrease in the (18)O content of iron oxides was due to the interaction of both basinal brines and meteoric fluids with the original BIF. Late-stage talc-bearing ore at the Mount Tom Price deposit formed in the presence of a pulse of delta(18)O-enriched basinal brine, indicating that hydrothermal fluids may have repeatedly interacted with the BIFs during the Paleoproterozoic.

La opinión de los estudiantes sobre su participación en la universidad

Aunque el tema de la participación en losdistintos espacios de la vida comunitariaha irrumpido con fuerza en los últimostiempos, el sector universitario apenas haincorporado el debate de la participaciónen su funcionamiento universitario. Laparticipación estudiantil ha sido, y siguesiendo en la mayoría de los casos, simbólica.En este contexto, el artículo quepresentamos profundiza en el análisis dela participación de los estudiantes en laestructura académica universitaria a partirde un estudio realizado en la Universidadde Girona. Nos centramos en los resultadosderivados de la aplicación de uncuestionario electrónico a los estudiantespara conocer sus propias percepciones ypuntos de vista en relación con su participación en la universidad. A partir deeste análisis planteamos las orientacionesy estrategias que se configuran comoelementos y recursos favorecedores de laparticipación estudiantil, tratando aspectosdiversos como la mejora de la información,la necesidad de estrategias para facilitar la adaptación de los estudiantes a la dinámica de los órganos de gobierno oel reconocimiento del carácter formativode la participación

Bioinformática: base de datos de matrices de expresión génica para su análisis vía web

El IBB ha desarrollado un servidor de aplicaciones: http://revolutionresearch.uab.es para el análisis de microarrays. Estas microarrays las obtienen y las suben a la base de datos local los usuarios de la aplicación. En la presente memoria se detalla el proceso realizado para automatizar la subida de microarrays públicas a la base de datos local. Estas microarrays se obtendrán del NCBI. El proceso de descarga de microarrays se realizará cada dos meses y estará sincronizado con un proceso de descarga de genes marcadores de microarrays del NCBI. En la memoria también se describen las fases realizadas para crear la interfaz web para gestionar estas microarrays públicas y las modificaciones realizadas sobre el aplicativo web para permitir realizar análisis con estas microarrays.

Servicio web para el cuidado de animales domésticos

El proyecto consiste en la creación un software que permita dar servicio a familias con mascotas que necesiten encontrar de una manera rápida residencias cercanas, protectoras o bien veterinarios. En caso de no poder mantener a la mascota, tener la posibilidad de anunciarlo para que otra familia pueda hacerse cargo de nuestra mascota adoptándola. En esta etapa de crisis económica se quiere ofrecer un servicio que permite a familias con mascota ponerse en contacto con personas de su provincia que se responsabilicen de su mascota durante un periodo de tiempo llegando a un acuerdo. De esta manera los dueños de la mascota obtienen un cuidado temporal más económico que una guardería de verano.
