A sediment core from Reykjanes Ridge has been studied at 10- to 50-year time resolution to document variability of Holocene surface water conditions in the western North Atlantic and to evaluate effects of Holocene ice-rafting episodes. Diatom assemblages are converted to quantitative sea surface temperatures (SST) using three different transfer functions. Spectral and scale-space methods are also applied on the records to explore variability at different timescales. Diatom assemblage and SST records clearly show that decaying remnants of the Laurentide ice sheet strongly influenced early Holocene climate in the western North Atlantic. This overrode the predominance of Milankovitch forcing, which played a key role in the development of Holocene climate in the eastern North Atlantic and Nordic Seas. Superimposed on general Holocene climate change is high-frequency SST variability on the order of 1°-3°C. The record also documents climatic oscillations with 600- to 1000-, ~1500-, and 2500-year periodicities, with a time-dependent dominance of different periodicities through the Holocene; a clear change in variability occurred about 5 ka BP. The SST record also provides evidence for Holocene cooling events (HCE) that, in some cases, correlate to documented southward intrusions of ice into the North Atlantic.

An important current problem in micrometeorology is the characterization of turbulence in the roughness sublayer (RSL), where most of the measurements above tall forests are made. There, scalar turbulent fluctuations display significant departures from the predictions of Monin?Obukhov similarity theory (MOST). In this work, we analyze turbulence data of virtual temperature, carbon dioxide, and water vapor in the RSL above an Amazonian forest (with a canopy height of 40 m), measured at 39.4 and 81.6 m above the ground under unstable conditions. We found that dimensionless statistics related to the rate of dissipation of turbulence kinetic energy (TKE) and the scalar variance display significant departures from MOST as expected, whereas the vertical velocity variance follows MOST much more closely. Much better agreement between the dimensionless statistics with the Obukhov similarity variable, however, was found for the subset of measurements made at a low zenith angle Z, in the range 0°  <  |Z|  <  20°. We conjecture that this improvement is due to the relationship between sunlight incidence and the ?activation?deactivation? of scalar sinks and sources vertically distributed in the forest. Finally, we evaluated the relaxation coefficient of relaxed eddy accumulation: it is also affected by zenith angle, with considerable improvement in the range 0°  <  |Z|  <  20°, and its values fall within the range reported in the literature for the unstable surface layer. In general, our results indicate the possibility of better stability-derived flux estimates for low zenith angle ranges.

Las capacidades funcionales especialmente las físicas muestran una tendencia a la decadencia, justamente después de los 30 años, y se hacen mas evidentes después de los 45, estos eventos tienden a empeorar, si la demanda física es mayor después de esta edad y la intensidad del trabajo es alta. Por otro lado la percepción de los trabajadores apunta a que su mayor nivel de rendimiento se encuentra antes de los cincuenta años y que pocos años después su eficacia disminuye aproximadamente entre 15 y 25%. De tal manera que desde el punto de vista de la salud ocupacional el envejecimiento de los obreros se produce alrededor de los 45 a 50 años, razón por la cual se afirma que antes de esta edad es que se deben realizar acciones preventivas para disminuir los efectos de la edad y el estrés laboral. Teniendo en cuenta lo anterior se hace necesario generar la inquietud tanto en los trabajadores como en la institución a la cual ellos pertenecen acerca de la importancia de la planeación y aplicación de un programa de ejercicio dirigido a los empleados de esta sede y que esté vinculado directamente con el área de salud ocupacional de la misma, logrando la cooperación de los individuos y la institución con el fin de generar un ambiente de participación bidireccional, que permita llevar a cabo dicho programa dentro de la jornada laboral, generando beneficios a cada uno de los sectores aquí inmersos.
