Análisis de la incidencia de la ACDI y de la red ECPAT internacional sobre la erradicación de la explotación sexual infantil en niños, niñas y adolescentes en el contexto del turismo, proyecto “La Muralla soy yo” (2009-2011), Cartagena de indias

La Explotación Comercial sexual de los niños, niñas y adolescentes – ESCNNA ha ocasionado graves repercusiones en la sociedad, sometiendo a los menores a situaciones que atentan contra su integridad física y psicológica. Por ello, en el marco internacional y nacional se han adelantado diferentes iniciativas para erradicar dicho fenómeno. La Cooperación Internacional para el desarrollo- CI ha sido una valiosa herramienta en el tratamiento del flagelo dados los diferentes canales de ayuda los cuales han contribuido para su intervención. En este sentido, la CI por medio de la Agencia Canadiense para el desarrollo internacional- ACDI y la Fundación Renacer- ECPAT Internacional (End Child Prostitution, Pornography & Trafficking of Children for Sexual Purposes) hicieron posible junto con otros actores el proyecto de CI en Cartagena llamado: “La Muralla soy yo”, el cual buscó la prevención y futura erradicación de la Explotación Sexual de niños y adolescentes en el turismo- ESNAT en la ciudad. En el presente estudio de caso se pretende identificar cómo la CI incide por medio de la ACDI y la red ECPAT Internacional en instituciones locales de Cartagena para la prevención y posible erradicación del problema de la Explotación comercial sexual infantil en niños, niñas y adolescentes, en el contexto del turismo.

Resultados preliminares de los análisis de contaminantes emergentes y sustancias prioritarias (2008/105/CE) en la red de control del Barranco de las Goteras (Gran Canaria)

[ES] En Gran Canaria, el uso de aguas regeneradas para el riego es una práctica utilizada desde hace más de treinta años, representando actualmente un 8% de los recursos hídricos utilizados (Consejo Insular de Aguas de Gran Canaria, com.per.). Recientemente y como respuesta al uso de aguas regeneradas, existe un creciente interés por la presencia de los denominados contaminantes emergentes en las aguas subterráneas y superficiales. Algunos son altamente móviles con potencial de lixiviación a las aguas subterráneas, mientras que otros se pueden acumular en la capa superior del suelo gracias a su capacidad adsorbente o son biodegradados en este medio. Los contenidos de algunas de estas sustancias en el agua son objeto de control atendiendo al listado de sustancias prioritarias de la Directiva 2008/105/CE. El objetivo de este estudio es analizar la situación en la zona del campo de golf de Bandama (NE de Gran Canaria), que ha sido regado con aguas regeneradas desde 1976, donde se ha establecido una red de control de agua de riego y agua subterránea, a partir de la que se están analizando sistemáticamente 185 compuestos emergentes y prioritarios.

The Extremely Red, Young L Dwarf PSO J318.5338-22.8603: a Free-Floating Planetary-Mass Analog to Directly Imaged Young Gas-Giant Planets

We have discovered using Pan-STARRS1 an extremely red late-L dwarf, which has (J - K)(MKO) = 2.78 and (J - K) (2MASS) = 2.84, making it the reddest known field dwarf and second only to 2MASS J1207-39b among substellar companions. Near-IR spectroscopy shows a spectral type of L7 +/- 1 and reveals a triangular H-band continuum and weak alkali (K I and Na I) lines, hallmarks of low surface gravity. Near-IR astrometry from the Hawaii Infrared Parallax Program gives a distance of 24.6 +/- 1.4 pc and indicates a much fainter J-band absolute magnitude than field L dwarfs. The position and kinematics of PSO J318.5-22 point to membership in the beta Pic moving group. Evolutionary models give a temperature of 1160(-40)(+30) K and a mass of 6.5(-1.0)(+1.3) M-Jup, making PSO J318.5-22 one of the lowest mass free-floating objects in the solar neighborhood. This object adds to the growing list of low-gravity field L dwarfs and is the first to be strongly deficient in methane relative to its estimated temperature. Comparing their spectra suggests that young L dwarfs with similar ages and temperatures can have different spectral signatures of youth. For the two objects with well constrained ages (PSO J318.5-22 and 2MASS J0355+11), we find their temperatures are approximate to 400 K cooler than field objects of similar spectral type but their luminosities are similar, i.e., these young L dwarfs are very red and unusually cool but not "underluminous." Altogether, PSO J318.5-22 is the first free-floating object with the colors, magnitudes, spectrum, luminosity, and mass that overlap the young dusty planets around HR 8799 and 2MASS J1207-39

The hydropolyp fauna of the Red Sea area

46 hydropolyp species of 28 genera and 10 families were sampled during the "Meteor" passage 1964/65 (IIOE) through the Red Sea and its northern and southern exits and on the occasion of several ecological investigations of 29 selected coral reef sections of the central Red Sea and the Gulf of Aqaba. These collections comprise 128 single records of hydropolyp species. Three species and two genera each with one species are doubtful. 25 species, seven genera, one family and one subfamily, together from 49 records have not previously been found in the Red Sea and its exits. Including these newly reported species, the total list increases from 64 species and 112 records to 89 species and 240 single records and 51 additional ones. Scanning microscopical photos, made for the first time for the illustration of the hydropolyps, have been shown to be suitable for a better characterization and diagnosis of the species. Qualified results on the reasons for the horizontal distribution of the species known from the Red Sea area cannot be given because of the low number of samples sporadically distributed through the whole area. In contrast with this fact, the vertical spread of the species sampled seems primarily to be regulated by water exchange and light intensity. For example, four species of hydropolyps are excellent indicators of certain abiotic factors or combinations of them: Gymnangium eximium reacts extremely stenophote-photophobe-rheophil, Eudendrium ramosum moderately stenophote-photophobe-rheophobe, Lytocarpus philippinus moderately stenophote-photophil-rheophil, and Halocordyle disticha var. australis extremely stenophote-photophil but moderately rheophil. Other species have been found throughout all the light zones. Combined with the small size of their colonies their euryphotic behaviour does not allow their use as indicator species.

Gestión de dispositivos integrados en una Arquitectura de la Red de las Cosas

La Arquitectura de la Red de las Cosas (IoT) hace referencia a una red de objetos cotidianos interconectados digitalmente. Gracias a IoT, no sólo podemos almacenar, analizar e intercambiar información y datos con dichos objetos, sino que además ellos pueden tener la capacidad de interactuar entre ellos de forma autónoma. Para ellos, los objetos cotidianos disponen de actuadores y sensores que permiten modificar su comportamiento y conocer su estado y propiedades, respectivamente. La gestión de IoT combina todas las funcionalidades necesarias para coordinar un sistema con una Arquitectura de la Red de las Cosas. Una buena gestión del sistema puede reducir costes, mejorar la asistencia a problemas de uso inesperado, corregir fallos y permitir la escalabilidad del sistema permitiéndole la incorporación de nuevos módulos y funcionalidades. En este Proyecto Fin de Grado se realizará primero un análisis de los aspectos de IoT relacionados con la gestión de dispositivos integrados en la Arquitectura de la Red de las Cosas. Después se procederá a realizar la especificación y el diseño de plataforma de gestión. Y finalmente se desarrollarán un caso de uso que permita validar algunos elementos de la plataforma diseñada. Se realizarán distintas pruebas para comprobar una correcta gestión de los dispositivos como el correcto funcionamiento del diseño previamente establecido, por medio, entre otras, de las siguientes operaciones: listar los elementos conectados, posibilidad de obtener y/o modificar dichos elementos (su configuración y su estado) o presentar informes y comprobar el estado en el que se encuentran los dispositivos: operativos o no operativos. De tal forma, en esta memoria se plasma como se ha desarrollado la gestión de dispositivos integrados en un sistema con Arquitectura de la Red de las Cosas utilizando tanto plataformas Intel Galileo como Arduino. ABSTRACT. The Architecture of the Internet of Things (IoT) refers to a network of digitally interconnected everyday objects. With IoT, not only we can store, analyze and exchange information and data with objects, but they can also autonomously interact among them. To accomplish that, the everyday objects are made of actuators and sensors that let us act on their behavior and know their state and properties, respectively. Management of IoT combines all the functionalities needed for coordinating a system with an Architecture of the Internet of Things. A good management system can reduce faults, improve assistance to reduce unexpected problems, correct errors and allow the scalability of the system, allowing the addition of new modules and functionalities. In this Degree Final Project, an analysis about aspects of IoT related to the management of devices integrated into the Architecture of the Internet of things is carried out first. Then, the specification and the design of the management platform is made. Finally, a use case will be developed to validate some elements of the designed platform. Several tests will be run to check the correct management of the devices such as the proper functioning of the design previously established, requesting, among others, the following set of operations: list the connected elements, possibility to obtain or modify these elements (their configuration and their state) or reporting and checking which devices are operating or non-operating. So, in this memory it is explained how it has been carried out the management of devices integrated in a system with an Architecture of the Internet of Things (IoT), based on the Intel Galileo and Arduino platforms.

The red swamp crayfish Procambarus clarkii in Europe: Impacts on aquatic ecosystems and human well-being

Procambarus clarkii is currently recorded from 16 European territories. On top of being a vector of crayfish plague, which is responsible for large-scale disappearance of native crayfish species, it causes severe impacts on diverse aquatic ecosystems, due to its rapid life cycle, dispersal capacities, burrowing activities and high population densities. The species has even been recently discovered in caves. This invasive crayfish is a polytrophic keystone species that can exert multiple pressures on ecosystems. Most studies deal with the decline of macrophytes and predation on several species (amphibians, molluscs, and macroinvertebrates), highlighting how this biodiversity loss leads to unbalanced food chains. At a management level, the species is considered as (a) a devastating digger of the water drainage systems in southern and central Europe, (b) an agricultural pest in Mediterranean territories, consuming, for example, young rice plants, and (c) a threat to the restoration of water bodies in north-western Europe. Indeed, among the high-risk species, P. clarkii consistently attained the highest risk rating. Its negative impacts on ecosystem services were evaluated. These may include the loss of provisioning services such as reductions in valued edible native species of regulatory and supporting services, inducing wide changes in ecological communities and increased costs to agriculture and water management. Finally, cultural services may be lost. The species fulfils the criteria of the Article 4(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1143/2014 of the European Parliament (species widely spread in Europe and impossible to eradicate in a cost-effective manner) and has been included in the “Union List”. Particularly, awareness of the ornamental trade through the internet must be reinforced within the European Community and import and trade regulations should be imposed to reduce the availability of this high-risk species.

Phytochemical Markers Of Different Types Of Red Propolis.

Propolis is a resin that bees collect from different plant sources and use in the defense of the bee community. The intricate composition of propolis varies depending on plant sources from different geographic regions and many types have been reported. Red coloured propolis found in several states in Brazil and in other countries has known antimicrobial and antioxidant activity. Different analytical methods have been applied to studies regarding the chemical composition and plant origins of red propolis. In this study samples of red propolis from different regions have been characterised using direct infusion electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (ESI(-)-MS) fingerprinting. Data from the fingerprints was extracted and analysed by multivariate analysis to group the samples according to their composition and marker compounds. Despite similar colour, the red coloured propolis samples were divided into three groups due to contrasting chemical composition, confirming the need to properly characterise the chemical composition of propolis.
