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

Tek Sapkota (2023, [Documento de trabajo])

Food is a vital component of Colombia's economy. The impact of climate change on agriculture and food security in the country is severe. The effects have resulted in decreased production and in the productivity of agricultural soil. Desertification processes are accelerating and intensifying. Colombia's government formally submitted its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) on December 29, 2020. This paper examines Colombia's NDC from the standpoint of the food system.

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.

PERFILOMETRÍA LÁSER DE FORMA LIBRE PARA LA INSPECCIÓN DE TUBERÍAS Y RECONSTRUCCIONES CILÍNDRICAS EN 3D

Mario Montoya (2022, [Tesis de maestría])

"La inspección de infraestructura de tuberías es esencial en la gestión de su integridad para evitar formación de agentes corrosivos y prevenir fracturas. Sin embargo, los métodos actuales están limitados por baja resolución y bajo alcance físico de medición. En este trabajo, se establece un modelo teórico de propagación láser basado en perfilometría láser de forma libre. Además, incorpora un sistema láser totalmente funcional compuesto por un espejo cónico dentro del sistema óptico para recuperar la información de desplazamiento. El dispositivo óptico presenta alta resolución, precisión y velocidad de adquisición en comparación con tecnologías actuales."

Desde hace unos años se ha ido posicionando el concepto de gobierno abierto como una promesa para reinventar la gestión pública y ampliar las capacidades de acción de la ciudadanía. Incluso algunos países —como México— se han adherido a la Alianza para el Gobierno Abierto, la cual es una iniciativa internacional, integrada por 79 países y varias organizaciones de la sociedad civil. Pero ¿qué implicaciones tiene el concepto?, ¿cuáles son sus desafíos de implementación?, ¿qué oportunidades ofrece? En esta breve reflexión nos planteamos estas preguntas y esbozamos cómo se puede observar el concepto en el sector hídrico.

Chronic toxicity of shrimp feed added with silver nanoparticles (Argovit-4®) in Litopenaeus vannamei and immune response to white spot syndrome virus infection

"In recent years, the application of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) as antibacterial compounds has been widely used in human and veterinary medicine. In this work, we investigated the effects of AgNPs (Argovit-4 R ) as feed additives (feed-AgNPs) on shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) using three different methods: 1) chronic toxicity after 28 days of feeding, 2) Effects against white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) challenged by oral route, and 3) transcriptional responses of immune-related genes (PAP, ProPO, CTL-3, Crustin, PEN3, and PEN4) following WSSV infection. The results showed that the feed-AgNPs did not interfere with the growth and survival of shrimp. Also, mild lesions in the hepatopancreas were recorded, proportional to the frequency of the feed-AgNP supply. Challenge test versus WSSV showed that feeding every 7 days with feed-AgNPs reduced mortality, reaching a survival rate of 53%, compared to the survival rates observed in groups fed every 4 days, daily and control groups of feed-AgNPs for the 30%, 10%, and 7% groups, respectively. Feed-AgNPs negatively regulated the expression of PAP, ProPO, and Crustin genes after 28 days of treatment and altered the transcriptional responses of PAP, ProPO, CTL-3, and Crustin after WSSV exposure. The results showed that weekly feeding-AgNPs could partially prevent WSSV infection in shrimp culture. However, whether or not transcriptional responses against pathogens are advantageous remains to be elucidated."
