La influencia de los grupos protestantes evangélicos en la orientación de la política exterior estadounidense hacia el Estado de Israel durante el gobierno de George Walker Bush

Desde el segundo gobierno de George Walker Bush, estudiosos de las Relaciones Internacionales, analistas políticos, periodistas y los medios de comunicación en general, manifestaron su preocupación por el lenguaje religioso que dicho presidente usaba en sus discursos, y por la forma como las posturas religiosas del gobierno Bush estaban afectando la política exterior de los Estados Unidos. Surgieron hipótesis que indicaban una fuerte influencia evangélica en la toma de decisiones del mandatario norteamericano en los temas internacionales, sobresaliendo en estas consideraciones las relaciones entre Estados Unidos e Israel. El hecho de que las ideas religiosas se mezclaran con la política y pudiesen dirigir las relaciones entre los Estados causo bastante conmoción. Especialmente en un país donde la religión y la política se creían separadas una de la otra. Una relación digna de ser analizada en la medida en que parecía estar afectando la política de Estados Unidos hacia Medio Oriente; punto clave de los temas geopolíticos más críticos de hoy en día como lo son el terrorismo, el petróleo y el llamado “choque de civilizaciones”. La cooperación entre Estados Unidos e Israel y la política exterior estadounidense hacia el Medio Oriente fueron temas prioritarios en la agenda de la administración de George W.Bush. La cuestión clave era entonces comprobar si efectivamente dichas políticas fueron una en prioridad debido a la presión de los grupos evangélicos en el gobierno republicano de Bush hijo, o por el contrario, si la política de cooperación con Israel respondía más a una política de Estado que trasciende la coyuntura del gobierno Bush.

Interdecadal enhancement of the Walker circulation over the Tropical Pacific in the late 1990s

The Walker circulation is one of the major components of the large-scale tropical atmospheric circulation and variations in its strength are critical to equatorial Pacific Ocean circulation. It has been argued in the literature that during the 20th century the Walker circulation weakened, and that this weakening was attributable to anthropogenic climate change. By using updated observations, we show that there has been a rapid interdecadal enhancement of the Walker circulation since the late 1990s. Associated with this enhancement is enhanced precipitation in the tropical western Pacific, anomalous westerlies in the upper troposphere, descent in the central and eastern tropical Pacific, and anomalous surface easterlies in the western and central tropical Pacific. The characteristics of associated oceanic changes are a strengthened thermocline slope and an enhanced zonal SST gradient across the tropical Pacific. Many characteristics of these changes are similar to those associated with the mid-1970s climate shift with an opposite sign. We also show that the interdecadal variability of the Walker circulation in the tropical Pacific is inversely correlated to the interdecadal variability of the zonal circulation in the tropical Atlantic. An enhancement of the Walker circulation in the tropical Pacific is associated with a weakening zonal circulation in the tropical Atlantic and vise versa, implying an inter-Atlantic-Pacific connection of the zonal overturning circulation variation. Whether these recent changes will be sustained is not yet clear, but our research highlights the importance of understanding the interdecadal variability, as well as the long-term trends, that influence tropical circulation.

Analysis of the courtship behavior of the Navel Orangeworm, Amyelois transitella (Walker) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), with a commentary on methods for the analysis of sequences of behavioral transitions

The courtship behavior of the navel orangeworm, Amyelois transitella, was examined in a wind tunnel. Sixty nine courtship sequences were analyzed and successful sequences divided into two categories: rapid courtship sequences, which involved few breaks in contact, short or no periods of male/female chasing and lasted <10 s between initial contact and mating; and prolonged courtship sequences, which involved many breaks in contact, extended periods of male/female chasing and lasted >10 s. Fifty six (81%) courtships were successful (50.7% rapid courtship and 30.4% prolonged courtship); the remaining 13 (18.8%) sequences were failed courtships. Of failed courtships, 9 (13.0%) were due to males losing contact with females during courtship chases and 4 (5.8%) due to females flying away immediately after male contact. Of all courtship sequences involving a break in contact during a chase, 38.5% resulted in an unsuccessful mating attempt. These findings contrast with previous studies of the courtship behavior of the navel orangeworm, potentially indicating that the type of bioassay used to study courtship may have a large effect on the behavioral sequences displayed. We evaluate several diagnostic techniques for the analysis of sequences of behavioral transitions.
