Una justicia corporativa : Saberes, prácticas y estrategias judiciales hacia el interior del Tribunal del Consulado de Buenos Aires (1794-1821)

El presente artículo tiene como objetivo analizar algunos de los saberes, las prácticas y las estrategias judiciales que distintos comerciantes pusieron en juego dentro del fuero consular. Estos provenían en buena medida de la propia actividad comercial, por lo que los consideramos como una extensión de su función económica como comerciantes. Tomaremos aquí las trayectorias de dos comerciantes porteños de reconocimiento en la plaza porteña, que ocuparon, en distintos momentos, cargos de importancia dentro del Consulado porteño. Asimismo, mostraremos quiénes son sus oponentes en los pleitos citados y detallaremos las características que asumen los conflictos en cada caso

Abundances of dinoflagellate cysts in sediment trap MST-9 (Appendix 1)

To study the ecology of calcareous dinoflagellates we examined the impact of the SW and NE monsoons on cyst formation using sediment trap material, collected at 1032 m water depth, off Somalia from June 1992 to February 1993. The results do not confirm the relationship between cyst production and lower nutrient concentrations, as highest cyst fluxes were recorded during late SW monsoon under the relatively nutrient-rich and less agitated conditions of mature upwelled water. Lowest cyst fluxes were found under strongly stratified, nutrient-depleted surface waters during the inter-monsoon. Although all of the studied species seem to prefer a stratified water column, an elevated concentration of nutrients appears to be necessary to maintain high cyst production. Comparison of the mean cyst flux to the sediment trap with that into the underlying surface sediments reveals a loss of 81-96%, which can be attributed to calcite dissolution. The relatively small spheres of Thoracosphaera heimii are affected more than the cysts of the other species.
