The socio-economic and cultural structures of the fisherfolk communities

Fishing communities that have exploited the resource for generations constitute the main stakeholder groups in the fisheries of Lake Victoria. Several studies have examined Uganda's Lake Victoria fishing communities and characterised key stakeholders at community level over the last decade (SEDAWOG 1999a and b; Geheb 1997; FeSEP 1997; Kitakule 1991). The communities are made up of scattered settlements at the shores and on islands. The categories of people living in these communities include fishers who consist primarily of large numbers of male youths who provide labour to boat and gear owners. There are resident and non-resident fish traders who after securing their supplies at the beaches, depart for their market destinations. In addition, there are fish processors, mostly operating traditional and improved smoking kilns. Many other people, dealing in provisions and supplies also stay at the beaches, their activities depending on the level of fish catch. The fishing communities of Lake Victoria, Uganda, include auxiliary livelihood activities such as boat building, net repairing and transportation; bait supply and beachside kiosks, video halls and retail shop business. Other economic activities are brick making, charcoal burning/wood trade, farming and livestock keeping.

Dinoflagellate Cysts as Indicators of Cultural Eutrophication in the Oslofjord, Norway

Dinoflagellate cyst records were analysed from four sediment cores from the inner Oslofjord. The cores covered the pre-industrial period, and the most important period of human population growth associated with industrial development of the region, from the mid-1800s to the present, including the reported development of cultural eutrophication. Comparisons between the cyst records and the known history of eutrophication suggest cyst signals that should prove useful for tracing the development of eutrophication. The eutrophication signal consisted of a doubling of total cyst concentration, and a marked increase in one species in particular,Lingulodinium machaerophorum(from <5 to around 50% of the assemblages) with increased eutrophication. In the core considered most representative of general water quality in the inner fjord, these trends reversed back to pre-industrial levels during the 1980s and 1990s when improved sewage treatment took effect.

Comparative Study of Contents of Four Tropane Alkaloids in Cultural and Wild Anisodus tanguticus

To assess the medicinal value of cultural Anisodus tanguticus,the contents of four bioactive tropane alkaloids,anisodine,anisodamine,scopolamine and atropine,in cultural and wild materials were determined by the HPLC method.The results showed that content of each alkaloid in the aboveground parts of cultural and wild samples was lower than that in roots,and this explained why it was not the whole plant but the root that was used as medicinal materials.The content of each alkaloid in the roots of one-year cultural material was lower than that in the two-year plants.The discrepancy of the total of four alkaloids between one-year and wild plants is not significant.Moreover,the total of four alkaloids,and the contents of anisodine,scopolamine,and atropine in two-year plants were higher than those in wild plant.Thus there is medicinal value in the cultivated A.tanguticus as well as wild A.tanguticus,especially in the two-year cultural A.tanguticus.

Curso de nivelación para los alumnos de nuevo ingreso en la Escuela Universitaria de Arquitectura Técnica de la Universidad Politécnica de Madrid

En la Escuela Universitaria de Arquitectura Técnica de Madrid, se ha desarrollado un curso que cabe denominar de Nivelación. Incluyó un conjunto de actividades destinadas a lograr que los alumnos accedieran con éxito al mundo Universitario. Era un curso dirigido a los alumnos que una vez concluido el bachillerato y superadas las Pruebas de Acceso a Estudios Universitarios habían sido admitidos para cursar el primer curso de los estudios conducentes al título universi-tario oficial de Arquitecto Técnico. El curso ha sido impartido por profesores de la Escuela Universitaria de Arquitectura Técnica de la Universidad Politécnica de Madrid adscritos, respectivamente, a los Departamentos "EXPRE-SIÓN GRAFICA APLICADA A LA EDIFICACIÓN", "MATEMÁTICAS APLICADAS A LA ARQUITECTURA TÉCNICA" y "TECNOLOGÍA DE LA EDIFICACIÓN". Cada uno de los tres Departamentos concretó inicialmente las asignaturas y los temarios a des-arrollar sí bien a lo largo del proceso las enseñanzas se produjeron algunas modificaciones para una mejor adaptación del curso a las necesidades reales de los alumnos. En la ponencia se analizarán los avances y descubrimientos de los profesores en sus respectivos campos y se presentarán las conclusiones obtenidas así como las posibles modificaciones para futuras ediciones de cursos similares.
