La expresión del inconsciente arquetípico a través del cuerpo bailado y esculpido en el teatro mitológico afrocubano de Eugenio Hernández Espinosa

Rosana Herrero-Martin (2023, [Capítulo de libro])

En este artículo se analizarán desde una perspectiva jungiana y holística una selección de momentos dancísticos y escultóricos en tres obras dramáticas del corpus teatral mitológico del autor cubano Eugenio Hernández Espinosa (María Antonia, 1967; Odebí, el cazador, 1980, y El Elegido, 1995), protagonizadas en los tres casos por diferentes orishas, nombre con el que se conocen popularmente en Cuba —concretamente en la tradición cultural y espiritual yoruba de la isla— a las manifestaciones antropomórficas, físicas, vivenciales y sobrenaturales de la divinidad. El paradigma de análisis aplicado es principalmente el del pensamiento integral de Ken Wilber, por el cual cuerpo-mente-psique-divinidad se conciben como un todo interconectado, integrado y resonador dentro del proceso de individualización de la persona, siendo el cuerpo el vehículo, el espejo, la palanca y la puerta de acceso, es decir, siendo el cuerpo el que refleja, activa y abre el resto de las dimensiones.

In this article, a selection of dance and sculptural moments in three dramatic works from the mythological theatrical corpus of Cuban author Eugenio Hernández Espinosa will be analyzed from a Jungian and holistic perspective (María Antonia, 1967; Odebí, the Hunter, 1980, and The Chosen, 1995). All three plays star a selection of Orishas, the name by which the anthropomorphic, physical, experiential and supernatural manifestations of divinity are popularly known in Cuba — specifically in the island’s Yoruba cultural and spiritual tradition. The analytical paradigm to be applied is mainly Ken Wilber’s integral thought, by which body-mind-psyche-divinity are conceived as an interconnected, integrated and resonating whole within the person’s individualization process, the body being the vehicle, the mirror, the lever and the access door, that is, the body being the one which reflects, activates and opens the rest of the dimensions.

Soil moisture content and maize grain yield under conventional and conservation agriculture practices - results of short term field tests in liselo, Namibia

Christian Thierfelder (2023, [Artículo])

This article focuses on the results from trials developed to monitor the short-term effects of conventionally tilled systems versus CA on soil quality and crop productivity under conditions of the major cropping systems in central, north-central and north-eastern regions of Namibia. Conventional tillage (CT), Minimum tillage (MT), Minimum tillage, mulch (MT-M), Minimum tillage, rotation (MT-R) and Minimum tillage, mulch and rotation (MT-MR) were the primary treatments tested. Significant differences (p≤0.000) among the treatments were observed in the 0-60 cm soil profiles where MT-M plots had the highest soil moisture content (39.8 mm, Standard Error of Mean 0.2815) over the study period. A significant difference (p=0.0206) in grain yield was observed in the second season with CT plots yielding the highest grain yield (3852.3 kg ha-1, standard error of mean 240.35). Results suggest that CA has the potential to increase water conservation and contribute to reduction of the risk of crop failure. Climate change driven degradation under conventional tillage necessitate alternative sustainable tillage methods. Conservation tillage methods and conservation agricultural practices that minimize soil disturbance while maintaining soil cover need to be adopted more locally as viable alternatives to conventional tillage.

Changes in soil organic carbon pools after 15 years of Conservation Agriculture in rice (Oryza sativa)-wheat (Triticum aestivum) cropping system of eastern Indo-Gangetic plains

C.M. Parihar Mahesh Gathala ML JAT (2023, [Artículo])

The present study was carried out at Dr. Rajendra Prasad Central Agricultural University, Samastipur, Bihar during 2021-2023 to focus on examining alterations in SOC pools resulting from conservation agriculture (CA) practices in R-W system in the eastern IGP, following the collection of soil samples from a long-term trial that was initiated in rainy (kharif) season 2006. The trial included eight combinations, namely: conventional tilled rice (Oryza sativa L.) and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) (CTR-CTW); CT rice and zero till wheat (CTR-ZTW); direct seeded rice (DSR) and wheat on permanent raised beds (PBDSR-PBW); ZTDSR and CT Wheat (ZTDSR-CTW); ZTDSR and ZT wheat without residue (ZTDSR-ZTW-R); ZTDSR-ZT wheat with residue (ZTDSR-ZTW +R); unpuddled transplanted riceZTW (UpTR-ZTW) and ZTDSR-sesbania brown manure-ZTW (ZTDSR-S-ZTW). Results revealed that implementing zero tillage (ZT) combined with residue retention in rice and wheat cultivation led to enhanced levels of soil organic carbon (SOC) across all four fractions, namely very labile (CVL), labile (CL), less labile (CLL), and non-labile (CNL), in comparison to the continuous and rotational tillage practices. The tillage and residue management options significantly affected the lability index (LI) and C pool index (CPI), with zero-tillage and residue retention leading to lower LI and higher CPI values. The management practices significantly affected the C management index (CMI), with zero-tillage and residue retention showing the highest CMI values. Findings showed the potential of CA practices for enhancing soil C quality as well as C sequestration in soil of the Eastern IGP of India.

Mulch application as the overarching factor explaining increase in soil organic carbon stocks under conservation agriculture in two 8-year-old experiments in Zimbabwe

Regis Chikowo Christian Thierfelder Marc Corbeels (2024, [Artículo])

Conservation agriculture (CA), combining reduced or no tillage, permanent soil cover, and improved rotations, is often promoted as a climate-smart practice. However, our understanding of the impact of CA and its respective three principles on top- and subsoil organic carbon stocks in the low-input cropping systems of sub-Saharan Africa is rather limited. This study was conducted at two long-term experimental sites established in Zimbabwe in 2013. The soil types were abruptic Lixisols at Domboshava Training Centre (DTC) and xanthic Ferralsol at the University of Zimbabwe farm (UZF). The following six treatments, which were replicated four times, were investigated: conventional tillage (CT), conventional tillage with rotation (CTR), no tillage (NT), no tillage with mulch (NTM), no tillage with rotation (NTR), and no tillage with mulch and rotation (NTMR). Maize (Zea mays L.) was the main crop, and treatments with rotation included cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.). The soil organic carbon (SOC) concentration and soil bulk density were determined for samples taken from depths of 0–5, 5–10, 10–15, 15–20, 20–30, 30–40, 40–50, 50–75 and 75–100 cm. Cumulative organic inputs to the soil were also estimated for all treatments. SOC stocks at equivalent soil mass were significantly (p<0.05) higher in the NTM, NTR and NTMR treatments compared with the NT and CT treatments in the top 5 cm and top 10 cm layers at UZF, while SOC stocks were only significantly higher in the NTM and NTMR treatments compared with the NT and CT treatments in the top 5 cm at DTC. NT alone had a slightly negative impact on the top SOC stocks. Cumulative SOC stocks were not significantly different between treatments when considering the whole 100 cm soil profile. Our results show the overarching role of crop residue mulching in CA cropping systems with respect to enhancing SOC stocks but also that this effect is limited to the topsoil. The highest cumulative organic carbon inputs to the soil were observed in NTM treatments at the two sites, and this could probably explain the positive effect on SOC stocks. Moreover, our results show that the combination of at least two CA principles including mulch is required to increase SOC stocks in these low-nitrogen-input cropping systems.

Percepción y significación de la gráfica urbana, en un acercamiento a la transdisciplinariedad

MARIA TERESA OLALDE RAMOS (2023, [Capítulo de libro])

Capítulo número 1 de la Sección El juego de los signos.

Se puede decir que los gráficos urbanos al ser analizados desde los distintos enfoques en que son interpretados, pueden ser entendidos como un fenómeno complejo, vistos desde su representación formal como signos, o también de acuerdo a su funcionalidad práctica como pueden ser las señales de tránsito, o bien los anuncios publicitarios y su impacto comercial que, como parte del contexto en que se ubican, pueden cambiar su sentido práctico y tomar nuevos roles de acuerdo a su significado. Estos mismos mensajes visuales pueden llegar a ser interpretados y significados como símbolos representativos de un sitio o como decoraciones escenográficas del mismo. Lo importante es entender es que todos y cada uno de los elementos visuales que encontramos en el contexto urbano comunican, ya que intrínsecamente llevan un mensaje en su propia representación visual, que a su vez son interpretados desde distintos enfoques por el sujeto con el que interactúan. El estudio transdisciplinario enriquecerá el conocimiento de la ciudad, lo cual puede ser un gran apoyo en la creación de distintas intervenciones en cuanto a la organización de espacios, desarrollo de edificaciones, de elementos mobiliarios, de transporte, así como de procesos de comunicación, las cuales se verán enriquecidas con los distintos enfoques disciplinarios que podemos encontrar en las diversas interpretaciones de los múltiples sujetos que la viven y la utilizan como parte de su cotidianeidad.

Data for the synthesis, characterization, and use of xerogels as adsorbents for the removal of fluoride and bromide in aqueous phase

"Groundwater with high fluoride concentrations has been recognized as one of the serious concerns worldwide. Besides, the fluoride released into the groundwater by slow dissolution of fluoride-containing rocks, various industries also contribute to fluoride pollution [1]. Excess intake of fluoride leads to various health problems such as dental and skeletal fluorosis, cancer, infertility, brain damage, thyroid diseases, etc. [2]. On the other hand, bromide is naturally present in surface and groundwater sources. However, during the chlorination process, bromide can be oxidized to HOBr, which can react with natural organic matter in water to form brominated organic disinfection byproducts, which are very harmful to human health [3]. Among various methods for water treatment, the adsorption process has been widely used and seems to be an efficient and attractive method for the removal of many contaminants in water, such as anions, in terms of cost, simplicity of design, and operation [4,5]. In the past years, xerogels and carbon xerogels, a new type of adsorbents, which are synthesized by the sol-gel polycondensation of resorcinol and formaldehyde, have gained attention due to their moldable texture and chemical properties [6]. Moreover, melamine addition in resorcinol and formaldehyde xerogels adds basic groups on its surface, favouring Lewis acid-base interactions between xerogels and other components by adsorption [7]. In this data article, the synthesis of three resorcinolformaldehyde (R/F) xerogels with an increasing amount of melamine (M) was carried out by colloidal polymerization (molar ratios of M/R = 0.5, M/R = 1.0, and M/R = 2.0). Additionally, samples of M/R = 0.5 xerogel were carbonized at 400, 450, and 550 degrees C under an inert atmosphere to increase their specific area. Organic and carbon xerogels obtained were characterized by FTIR, TGA, SEM, Physisorption of N 2, and the pH at the point of zero charge (pH PZC). All organic xerogels were also tested as adsorbents on the removal of fluoride and bromide ions from aqueous phase. The Freundlich, Langmuir, and Radke-Prausnitz isotherm models were applied to interpret the experimental data from adsorption equilibrium. Additionally, the data of the mass of the xerogel needed to remove fluoride and bromide from groundwater and fulfill the maximum concentration levels are also included."
