Review of Nationally Determined Contributions (NCD) of Kenya from the perspective of food systems

Tek Sapkota (2023, [Documento de trabajo])

Agriculture is one of the fundamental pillars of the 2022–2027 Bottom-up Economic Transformation Plan of the Government of Kenya for tackling complex domestic and global challenges. Kenya's food system is crucial for climate change mitigation and adaptation. Kenya has prioritized aspects of agriculture, food, and land use as critical sectors for reducing emissions towards achieving Vision 2030's transformation to a low-carbon, climate-resilient development pathway. Kenya's updated NDC, as well as supporting mitigation and adaptation technical analysis reports and other policy documents, has identified an ambitious set of agroecological transformative measures to promote climate-smart agriculture, regenerative approaches, and nature-positive solutions. Kenya is committed to implementing and updating its National Climate Change Action Plans (NCCAPs) to present and achieve the greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction targets and resilience outcomes that it has identified.

Studies of plant hydraulics and water relations in mexican environments: adaptation, physiology, and applications

Estudios sobre hidráulica y relaciones hídricas de plantas en ambientes mexicanos: adaptaciones, fisiología y aplicaciones

RODRIGO MENDEZ ALONZO Mark Olson Horacio Paz Casandra Reyes García CELENE MARISOL ESPADAS MANRIQUE CLARA TINOCO OJANGUREN Santiago Trueba (2022, [Artículo])

Given the outstanding global progress of research on the hydraulic pathway in plants, and its important role as an indicator of plant mortality risk, we reviewed: (1) the adaptive basis of hydraulic traits and their importance for overall plant function; (2) the number of primary scientific articles on plant hydraulics that have been produced in Mexico in the last 40 years, (3) research related to specific environments in Mexico, and (4) the possible applications of plant hydraulics to natural resource management. Our systematic review included 83 articles. The number of publications per year steadily increased over time, reaching its maximum in 2021. Veracruz and Yucatán are the states where the majority of scientific articles on plant hydraulics have been produced, but for most states less than two publications on this subject appeared in ca. 40 years, and none was found for Oaxaca and Chiapas, the most biodiverse states. In plant hydraulics, the most studied biome in Mexico was the tropical dry forest, followed by crops; trees were the most studied growth-form, followed by herbaceous crops and epiphytes. We point to the need of enhancing research in the interface between plant hydraulic function and remote sensing, as well as developing applications in adaptive forest management and ecological restoration. We hope that this review may ignite a national collaborative effort to quantify critical traits that could inform the hydraulic functioning of Mexican ecosystems, particularly in the underrepresented and highly diverse states of Mexico. © 2022 Sociedad Botanica de Mexico, A.C.

Revisiting the phylogeny and taxonomy of the Pithecellobium clade (Leguminosae, Caesalpinioideae) with new generic circumscriptions

We present the most complete molecular phylogeny to date of the Pithecellobium clade of subfamily Caesalpinioideae. This neotropical group was informally recognised (as the Pithecellobium alliance) at the end of the 20th century by Barneby and Grimes (1996) and includes five genera and 33 species distributed from the southern United States and Caribbean Islands to north-eastern South America. Our aims were to further test the monophyly of the group and its genera and to identify sister group relationships within and amongst the genera. A phylogenetic analysis of nuclear ribosomal DNA sequences (ITS and ETS) was performed. The results provide further support for the monophyly of the Pithecellobium clade. The genera Ebenopsis, Pithecellobium and Sphinga were strongly supported as monophyletic. Havardia and Painteria were found to be non-monophyletic, prompting their re-circumscriptions and the description of two new genera: Gretheria and Ricoa. New combinations are made for the three species transferred to the new genera. © Iván Tamayo-Cen et al.

El impacto de los mantenimientos preventivos en los sistemas fotovoltaicos interconectados a la red de distribución eléctrica

Kassandra Elizabeth López Esparza Raúl Pérez Bustamante GUILLERMO RAUL GARCIA FERRERA (2023, [Artículo])

La obligación de llevar un sistema o equipo a su máximo rendimiento y operación, así como la resolución de posibles fallas en el mismo, ha dado lugar a la necesidad de desarrollar un ámbito especializado dedicado exclusivamente a abordar estas obligaciones. De esto surge el campo del mantenimiento, cuyo propósito fundamental es asegurar el funcionamiento adecuado de los equipos o instalaciones en los cuales se lleva a cabo dicho trabajo, así como corregir y prevenir fallas o problemas en los sistemas en cuestión. El mantenimiento puede aplicarse en una amplia gama de sectores donde se necesite prevenir o corregir alguna operación, y en el caso del sector energético renovable esto no es una excepción. En particular, el mantenimiento de los sistemas fotovoltaicos interconectadas a la red (SFIR) busca llevar la instalación a su mejor zona de operación y funcionamiento para con esto asegurar la generación de energía. Es por esta razón, que el sector energético se ha unido al desarrollo de una rama que se dedique a la operación y mantenimiento (O&M) de los sistemas fotovoltaicos. En este artículo se exponen los resultados de un estudio de mantenimiento preventivo en una instalación fotovoltaica ubicada en el estado de Aguascalientes, el cual fue realizado por Sunna Power, una empresa dedicada a ofrecer servicios de mantenimiento a SFIR en México. El trabajo explorará el estado de la instalación previo al mantenimiento y su situación una vez que éste ha sido ejecutado. Aun cuando los SFIR requieren poco mantenimiento, este articulo pretende demostrar que a pesar de esto la implementación de un plan de mantenimiento en las instalaciones puede generar un impacto positivo en la producción de energía del sistema, mostrando los resultados obtenidos en el mantenimiento ejecutado en la instalación fotovoltaica.

The obligation to ensure that a system or piece of equipment achieves its maximum performance and functionality, and to correct any failures that may occur, has led to the need to develop a specialized field dedicated exclusively to meeting these obligations. This has given rise to the field of maintenance, the basic aim of which is to ensure the correct functioning of the equipment or installations on which the work is carried out, and to correct and prevent any failures or problems in the systems concerned; maintenance can be applied in a wide range of sectors where it is necessary to prevent or correct an operation, and the renewable energy sector is no exception. In particular, the maintenance of photovoltaic systems connected to the grid (SFIR) aims to bring the installation to its best operational and functional range in order to guarantee energy production; it is for this reason that the energy sector has participated in the development of a branch dedicated to the operation and maintenance (O&M) of photovoltaic systems. This article presents the results of a preventive maintenance study in a photovoltaic plant located in the state of Aguascalientes, carried out by Sunna Power, a company dedicated to providing maintenance services to SFIR in Mexico. The study examines the condition of the installation before maintenance and the situation after maintenance. Although SFIR requires little maintenance, this article aims to demonstrate that the implementation of a maintenance plan in the plants can nevertheless have a positive impact on the energy production of the system, displaying the results obtained in the maintenance carried out on the photovoltaic installation.
