A pre-pandemic study about recreational uses in the Mexico Park located at Mexico City (year 2017)

Ramiro Flores-Xolocotzi Sergio Ceballos (2022, [Artículo, Artículo])

A recreational study was carried out through surveys in the Parque México in Mexico City. For this, the relationship between visit patterns with socioeconomic information, uses and perceptions of visitors with 18 years old or older was analyzed. This research uses descriptive statistics and a non-linear canonical correlation analysis to analyze relationships between variables. An ordered probit regression was also performed to determine the variables that explain the frequency of recreational use. It was obtained that the Park mainly receives visitors with at least bachelor's degree (78.6%) and high incomes (more than 50% have a monthly family income higher than $10,000.00 pesos and 27.6% receive more than $30,000.00 per month). Considering the results, the conclusions are that although the highest percentage of the studied population comes from neighborhoods outside the Roma-Condesa Corridor: then the visitors who live in the Corridor and who have higher incomes, have weight in the description of the model. The results allow to conclude too, that higher income increases the frequency of use. It is also observed that the park is used during the Monday to Friday by more than 50% of the population of visitors and with a high percentage of use in the mornings.

Programa de ordenamiento ecológico y territorial, IMTA: 2da. Etapa

NORMA RAMIREZ SALINAS Luis Arturo Brizuela Mundo Rebeca González Villela Jorge Luis Izurieta Dávila MARICELA MARTINEZ JIMENEZ RODRIGO ULISES SANTOS TELLEZ (2018, [Documento de trabajo])

Con el objeto de ordenar la utilización del suelo y conservar los recursos naturales existentes, el IMTA certifica el predio que ocupa como una Área Destinada Voluntariamente a la Conservación (ADVC) ante la Comisión Nacional de Áreas Naturales Protegidas. Por lo que, el IMTA se obliga a contar y cumplir con un programa operativo anual que incluya la difusión de la existencia del ADVC en las zonas aledañas, con el fin de inducir una cultura de conservación de la flora y fauna existente.

Local markets and food security. The case of the Milpera and Puuc regions in Yucatan

Ana Laura Bojórquez Carrillo Monserrat Vargas Jiménez Mireya Noemi Hernández Islas (2023, [Artículo, Artículo])

Food insecurity is a complex problem worldwide. A major part of this problem is the food supply. Local markets can represent a strategy for building social capital, as well as strategies for subsistence and sustainability of food value chains, contributing to food security and its effects. The objective of this research is to determine if the existence of a municipal market in the Milpera and Puuc regions of Yucatán favors the existence of food security, the consumption or the expense of natural foods. The population is located in 18 municipalities of Yucatán, Mexico. To carry out this study, a cross-sectional, non-experimental study, with a quantitative approach and correlational scope. The main techniques that were applied were descriptive statistics and contingency tables with respect to 6 hypotheses. This work shows that the existence of markets in the communities makes a significant difference because it positively impacts the food security of the inhabitants, since it allows them to have access to a wider variety of products and at the same time, favors the active dynamics of the economy of the community.

Drought vulnerability indices in Mexico

David Ortega Gaucin JESUS DE LA CRUZ BARTOLON HEIDY VIVIANA CASTELLANO BAHENA (2018, [Artículo])

Drought is one of the most harmful hydro climatic threats to society. Mexico has been historically affected by recurring and long-lasting droughts that have severely impacted society and the economy. Consequently, public programs and policies have been developed in order to reduce the country’s vulnerability to drought, hence the importance of identifying the spatial distribution and the dimension—even in relative terms only—of vulnerability in different regions from social, economic, and environmental perspectives. This article presents a method for obtaining indices and maps of vulnerability to drought in Mexico; indices and maps are based on a set of socioeconomic and environmental indicators that the method combines using an objective analytic procedure that identifies the most vulnerable states and municipalities from social, economic, and environmental perspectives, all of which converge in overall vulnerability to drought. The results obtained indicate that 38.9% of total Mexican population inhabits municipalities with high and very high degrees of overall vulnerability to drought. For this reason, it is necessary to continue implementing actions and preventive and mitigation strategies via public policies and social programs aimed at decreasing the country’s vulnerability to the occurrence of drought events. This is the only way to facilitate the necessary conditions to reduce the impact of drought and to decrease people’s vulnerability to this phenomenon.

Amenazas y vulnerabilidades: las dos caras de los desastres en Celestún, Yucatán

Threats and vulnerabilities: two faces of disasters in Celestún, Yucatán

DENISE SOARES DANIEL MURILLO LICEA ROBERTO ROMERO PEREZ Gemma Millán (2014, [Artículo])

En este trabajo se reflexiona sobre la triada vulnerabilidad-desastres-desarrollo y se presenta un estudio de caso en el municipio de Celestún, Yucatán, sobre percepciones sociales acerca de la vulnerabilidad de la población frente a las amenazas de eventos meteorológicos extremos. Se pretende conocer las opiniones de la población respecto de su acceso a la capacitación sobre cómo enfrentar los huracanes, su capacidad para protegerse de dichas amenazas y su evaluación de la gestión de las autoridades locales en la materia.

Social and environmental constraints of the risks, responses to disasters, as well as the nature of the relationship between disaster and development have been the subject of increasing attention from researchers in the social sciences. That’s because the risks of disasters have become a growing threat by climate change. In this work we reflect over the triad vulnerability-disaster-development and present a case study in the municipality of Celestún, Yucatán, on social perceptions about the vulnerability against extreme weather events. We expected to know the views of the population regarding hurricanes, their access to the training and to evaluation of local authorities’ management.

Spatial phylogenetics in Hechtioideae (Bromeliaceae) reveals recent diversification and dispersal

La filogenética espacial de Hechtioideae (Bromeliaceae) revela diversificación y dispersión reciente

Ricardo Rivera Martinez Ivón Mercedes Ramírez Morillo José Arturo de Nova Vázquez GERMAN CARNEVALI FERNANDEZ CONCHA Juan Pablo Pinzón Katya J. Romero-Soler NESTOR EDUARDO RAIGOZA FLORES (2022, [Artículo])

Background: Hechtioideae is a group of Bromeliaceae that is distributed in Megamexico III. In recent years, evolutionary relationships within this lineage have been studied; however, the biogeography of these plants have not yet been explored from a phylogenetic framework. The integration of geographic and phylogenetic information in the evolutionary study of organisms has facilitated the identification of patterns, as well as the exploration of new hypotheses that allow for the understanding the processes that have influenced the evolutionary history of lineages. Questions and/or Hypotheses: What is the biogeographic history of this lineage? How Hechtioideae has diversified over time? Results: The Neotropical region has the highest species richness of Hechtioideae and the Mexican Transition Zone is the area with the greatest phylogenetic diversity. This lineage presented its highest diversification rate during the late Miocene and Pleistocene (6.5-1 Ma). The ancestral area of the group corresponds to the Neotropical region and the Mexican Transition Zone. In addition, Hechtioideae spread across its current ranges through multiple dispersal events associated with climatic and geological events during the last 10 Ma. Conclusions: Hechtioideae is a group of recent origin whose evolutionary history has been strongly influenced by geological and climatic events over the past 10 Ma, such as the glacial and interglacial periods of the Pleistocene and the great tectonic and volcanic activity that led to the formation of the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt. © 2022 Sociedad Botanica de Mexico, A.C.
