La organización territorial del movimiento de trabajadores desocupados Aníbal Verón del barrio Malvinas de la ciudad de La Plata

Este trabajo sintetiza los resultados de un estudio de campo realizado en la Organización Territorial del Movimiento de Trabajadores Desocupados Aníbal Verón del Barrio Malvinas de la ciudad de La Plata, entre el mes de Marzo del año 2003 (momento en el cual la Organización Territorial comienza sus actividades en el barrio y se incorpora, paulatinamente, al Movimiento de Trabajadores Desocupados Aníbal Verón) y los primeros meses del año 2005, cuando esta Organización conforma, junto a otras, el Frente Popular Darío Santillán. Los principales temas aquí desarrollados están relacionados, en principio, con la novedosa forma de participación político-comunitaria que insertó esta Organización Territorial en un barrio como Malvinas donde predominaban, desde hacía más de veinte años, formas de participación político-comunitarias de tipo clientelar. Otro de los temas aquí abordados está relacionado con los vínculos existentes entre la Organización Territorial y el Movimiento Regional. En esta trama vincular, se observó un desfasaje entre los criterios y acuerdos propuestos por el movimiento y las prácticas político-comunitarias llevadas adelante por la organización y los vecinos del barrio. Por último, en esta investigación también son centrales los distintos tipos de actores que interpretaban al movimiento de diferente manera. Aquí se observaron diversas formas de actuar, participar y comprometerse. En aquel momento, esto me llevó a proponer el armado de una tipología de participación de la que se desprende que la participación de los integrantes de la Organización Territorial del MTD Aníbal Verón del Barrio Malvinas, entre el año 2003 y 2005 era directa, inestable y complementaria. Lo que hacía que se fuera modificando con el propio devenir de la organización en movimiento. Es un trabajo más bien empírico y se nutrió por un lado, de datos obtenidos de entrevistas y observaciones realizadas para dos proyectos de extensión en los cuales participé y por otro, del trabajo de campo realizado entre el mes de Junio del año 2003 y Marzo del año 2005. El trabajo de campo constó de observaciones participantes y no participantes y, de entrevistas a los integrantes de la organización territorial. Entre el mes de octubre del año 2003 y el mes de enero del año 2004 realicé veinte entrevistas en profundidad. Para su realización se tomaron cuotas por sexo y edad hasta agotar información

Spatially explicit estimates of stock size, structure and biomass of North Atlantic albacore tuna (Thunnus alalunga) in the North Atlantic for the period 1956-1972, compiled from statistics about ICCAT fishery region L1

The development of the ecosystem approach and models for the management of ocean marine resources requires easy access to standard validated datasets of historical catch data for the main exploited species. They are used to measure the impact of biomass removal by fisheries and to evaluate the models skills, while the use of standard dataset facilitates models inter-comparison. North Atlantic albacore tuna is exploited all year round by longline and in summer and autumn by surface fisheries and fishery statistics compiled by the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT). Catch and effort with geographical coordinates at monthly spatial resolution of 1° or 5° squares were extracted for this species with a careful definition of fisheries and data screening. In total, thirteen fisheries were defined for the period 1956-2010, with fishing gears longline, troll, mid-water trawl and bait fishing. However, the spatialized catch effort data available in ICCAT database represent a fraction of the entire total catch. Length frequencies of catch were also extracted according to the definition of fisheries above for the period 1956-2010 with a quarterly temporal resolution and spatial resolutions varying from 1°x 1° to 10°x 20°. The resolution used to measure the fish also varies with size-bins of 1, 2 or 5 cm (Fork Length). The screening of data allowed detecting inconsistencies with a relatively large number of samples larger than 150 cm while all studies on the growth of albacore suggest that fish rarely grow up over 130 cm. Therefore, a threshold value of 130 cm has been arbitrarily fixed and all length frequency data above this value removed from the original data set.
