| The Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition technique is widely used to identify and quantify the separate contributions of group differences in measurable characteristics, such as education, experience, marital status, and geographical differences to racial and gender gaps in outcomes. The technique cannot be used directly, however, if the outcome is binary and the coefficients are from a logit or probit model. I describe a relatively simple method of performing a decomposition that uses estimates from a logit or probit model. Expanding on the original application of the technique in Fairlie (1999), I provide a more thorough discussion of how to apply the technique, an analysis of the sensitivity of the decomposition estimates to different parameters, and the... |

| This study is an attempt to produce an assessment of the impact of shrimp aquaculture in the Mekong Delta (Viet Nam) on mangrove ecosystems. For this exercise we selected two sub-areas (Ca Mau and Tra Vinh provinces) encompassing a variety of land uses and ecological conditions. Twenty stations in Tra Vinh and 15 stations in Ca Mau have been surveyed several times from September 2000 to March 2002. Field investigations included mangrove soils studies, measurements of pH and salinity of the water, analysis of mangrove flora, and density and structure of the vegetation. Four Systeme Probatoire de l'Observation de la Terre (SPOT) scenes were used for the discrimination of mangrove types and for the delineation of landscape units. For the first time, five... |

| La detección oportuna de deficiencias nutrimentales en hojas de plantas cultivadas permite tomar medidas correctivas inmediatas asi como predecir rendimientos. Las características espectrales y de textura de las imágenes se pueden utilizar para obtener información y correlacionarlos con el estado nutrimental de elementos esenciales que generan sintomatología similar en hojas de las plantas. En la presente investigación se estableció un experimento para medir las propiedades espectrales y característica texturales del cultivo de frijol con diferentes concentraciones de nitrógeno y magnesio de imágenes obtenidas con escáner. A partir de los valores de reflectancia se generaron modelos de regresión para asociar la concentración de nitrógeno y magnesio en el... |

| In Europe, shellfish harvesting areas are classified according European Directive EC N°854/2004, using classic faecal indicator levels (Escherichia coli). A better indicator is needed, however, because shellfish may contain other human pathogens. Other indicator organisms have therefore been evaluated and, among these, coliphages meet most of the requirements to serve as indicators and models for enteroviruses. In order to evaluate the capacity of coliphages as indicators, a total of 764 shellfish were sampled in 2004 from 70 shellfish harvesting areas monitored by the Ifremer microbiological surveillance network (REMI, http://www.ifremer.fr/envlit/), and tested for F-specific RNA bacteriophages (FRNAPH). Two species of bivalve mollusc were collected... |

| We studied the dynamics of stable isotopes δ13C and δ15N of an opportunistic suspension feeder the Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) to better understand the factors that influence the trophic enrichment (trophic-shift, Δ) between primary producers and consumers. Most of the previous studies on this topic do not quantify mass fluxes or isotopic discrimination phenomena in the organism, which are two pillars in isotope ecology. We used a dynamic energy budget (DEB) approach (Kooijman, 2010) to quantify i) the fluxes of elements and isotopes in C. gigas soft tissues and ii) the impact of the scaled feeding level, the organism mass and the isotopic ratio of food on the "trophic-shift" Δ, and isotope turnover in tissues. Calibration and parametrization... |

| Se realizó un análisis de estudios de caso que demostró diversos problemas sociales en los parques urbanos del mundo, destacando un problema histórico de exclusión de grupos vulnerables como mujeres, hombres homosexuales, etnias/razas y personas con capacidades diferentes. Bajo una óptica de equidad e inclusión se sugiere que los planificadores de parques contemplen una visión paisajística que permita el desarrollo de un Sistema Integral de Espacios Verdes Citadinos que comprenda esquemas de participación ciudadana y herramientas ecológicas, sociales y económicas. Una de estás últimas, es la valoración económica a través de modelos de disposición de pago y que puede ser aplicada en análisis beneficio-costo bajo una perspectiva que integre aspectos sociales... |
