The Mexican environmental flow standard: scope, application and implementation

MARIA ANTONIETA GOMEZ BALANDRA MARIA DEL PILAR SALDAÑA FABELA MARICELA MARTINEZ JIMENEZ (2014, [Artículo])

With the implementation of the Official Mexican Standard NOM-011-CONAGUA-2000, the water balance of 730 basins has been calculated and its water availability agreement is published. This rule points out to allocate water for the environment only as an annual volume since methods for estimating environmental flows were not standardized in the country. In this paper, an analysis of the environmental flow standard and examples of the suggested hydrological methods are presented. For its implementation, some steps are taking place, mainly establishing environmental water reserves and building capacities. In addition, environmental allocations are becoming a common practice for all water projects, as well as setting limits to hydrological alterations by hydroelectric dams. The standard promotes the use of technical integration tools to analyze the responses of ecosystems to changes in the flow regime and adaptive management under different scenarios of water use. Although the main steps have been taken, its implementation as mandatory rule will take time.

Modelación sistémica del uso eficiente del agua

FELIPE IGNACIO ARREGUIN CORTES VICTOR HUGO ALCOCER YAMANAKA (2004, [Artículo])

Se presenta un modelo matemático de optimización para determinar la cantidad mínima de agua de primer uso que debería abastecerse a un sistema hidráulico (urbano, agrícola, industrial o de cuenca), considerando las demandas específicas de cada usuario, la calidad de las aguas residuales con y sin tratamiento, las fugas, el reúso y cualquier número de contaminantes del agua. Se utilizó como plataforma de optimización el programa General Algebraic Modeling System. El modelo desarrollado se aplicó a la ciudad de Cuernavaca y se generaron varios escenarios, a fin de satisfacer las necesidades de todos los usuarios en cantidad y calidad para diferentes condiciones de funcionamiento de las plantas de tratamiento de aguas residuales existentes, la construcción de las obras necesarias para tratar todas las aguas residuales y utilizar el agua en forma óptima dentro del sistema; trabajándose también en el control de fugas.

Solanum tuberosum Microtuber Development under Darkness Unveiled through RNAseq Transcriptomic Analysis

"Potato microtuber (MT) development through in vitro techniques are ideal propagules for producing high quality potato plants. MT formation is influenced by several factors, i.e., photoperiod, sucrose, hormones, and osmotic stress. We have previously developed a protocol of MT induction in medium with sucrose (8% w/v), gelrite (6g/L), and 2iP as cytokinin under darkness. To understand the molecular mechanisms involved, we performed a transcriptome-wide analysis. Here we show that 1715 up- and 1624 down-regulated genes were involved in this biological process. Through the protein–protein interaction (PPI) network analyses performed in the STRING database (v11.5), we found 299 genes tightly associated in 14 clusters. Two major clusters of up-regulated proteins fundamental for life growth and development were found: 29 ribosomal proteins (RPs) interacting with 6 PEBP family members and 117 cell cycle (CC) proteins. The PPI network of up-regulated transcription factors (TFs) revealed that at least six TFs–MYB43, TSF, bZIP27, bZIP43, HAT4 and WOX9–may be involved during MTs development. The PPI network of down-regulated genes revealed a cluster of 83 proteins involved in light and photosynthesis, 110 in response to hormone, 74 in hormone mediate signaling pathway and 22 related to aging."
