Desarrollo de estrategias de base en la península de Azuero, Panamá.

Introducción Este artículo examina la infraestructura económica y social de Playa, una comunidad rural en la Península de Azurero, Panamá. Evalúa además, la forma en que la comunidad ha respondido para articularse a los mercados internacionales de mariscos. El análisis indica que los residentes utilizan una variedad de estrategias, cuya flexibilidad les permite promover los intereses locales y lidiar con las fuerzas externas a la comunidad, Delineado el modo de adaptación de playa, este es un complejo sistema de lazos sociales y una estrategia de participación de múltiples actividades económicas las cuales han facilitado un modesto desarrollo sostenible y han servido como paliativos de los efectos de la globalización…

Efeito dos nutrientes (nitrogênio e fósforo) sobre o desenvolvimento da Gracilaria birdiae: crescimento e possível uso como biofiltro

Marine shrimp farming has grown exponentially during the last years in Brazil. In spite of the promising economical situation, this activity is facing an increasing criticism due to its environmental impact. Thus, the necessity of alternatives to mitigate environmental degradation caused by this activity. An alternative that is being studied is the policulture that is the integrated culture of two or more organisms, normally one of them a filtering organism. Among filtering organisms, macroalgae are very practicable because they are efficient in the removal of the exceeding nutrients of the water and do not leave residues in the water. Besides, the integrated culture with macroalgae allows the economical exploration of the seaweed (for the manufacture of jelly and jam, for the dairy industry, pharmaceuticals, etc.) along with possibility of a sustainable aquaculture. In the present experiment, the development of the seaweed Gracilaria birdiae, the influence and tolerance of this species to the environmental parameters, and its absorption efficiency in relation with the three kinds of macronutrients (NH4+, NO3- and PO4-3) found in the effluents of marine shrimp farming was studied. The experiment was divided in two parts: a laboratorial part and one part carried under natural conditions. The water used in the laboratory trial was collected in the shrimp ponds of Tecnarão farm and distributed in aquaria containing 20 g of G. birdiae. In the field trial, 0.5 kg of G. birdiae was inserted in PVC cages cultivated in the farm. The results of the study showed a modest growth of G. birdiae, probably due to its low tolerance to highly eutrophicated environments. However, the removal of nutrients was very expressive. Ammonia was reduced in approximately 34 %. Ortho-phosphate showed a reduction of 93.5 %. The capacity of biofiltration of the NO3- by the macro algae was of 100 %, showing that G. birdiae is a seaweed-filtered with a high level of removal for this nutrient under laboratorial conditions. In spite of the low growth of the macro algae in the experiment, the results in relation to the removal of nutrients of the water was encouraging, suggesting that this species can be an efficient biofilter and thus, a strong candidate to be used in a sustainable aquaculture

. Las universidades y el desarrollo local: las relaciones entre la enseñanza superior y las demandas locales de actividades

Introducción La enseñanza superior en Francia conoce, en los últimos cuarenta años, importantes mutaciones dadas las evoluciones de la demografía estudiantil que creció regularmente hasta la mitad de los años 90. Por otro lado, la composición social estudiantil se transformó en ese movimiento de expansión de la enseñanza superior: el procentaje de estudiantes de origen modesto o medio aumentó en las universidades, pero un análisis más específico permite constatar que la representatividad de esos sectores está distribuida de forma clara (ellos están más presentes en las universidades regionales y en ciertas especialidades). Sin embargo, a estos factores de transformación, es necesario agregar un doble movimiento que aparece en los años 90: la regionalización y la armonización europea.
