Se calcula que los patrones de precipitación global se alterarán a escalas regionales en el presente siglo. El cambio mermará la renovación del agua subterránea y el impacto sobre los acuíferos afectará a las fuentes superficiales de agua y a los ecosistemas. “El aumento en la demanda de agua y el decremento en la lluvia, disminuirán un 14 por ciento el almacenamiento del acuífero para 2015”, agregó el científico en la conferencia La disponibilidad de agua y el CCG en la subcuenca del río Zahuapan, Tlaxcala, México. Invitado por el Centro de Ciencias de la Atmósfera (CCA) de la UNAM, Suárez Sánchez analizó el impacto del crecimiento poblacional y el CCG en el balance de la subcuenca del Río Zahuapan, en Tlaxcala, y refirió algunas acciones de mitigación ante esta circunstancia. Boletín Científico y Cultural de la Infoteca No. 288 Mayo 2011 3 Sistema de Infotecas Centrales Universidad Autónoma de Coahuila “Conocemos los efectos del cambio climático en la Tierra y en los ecosistemas más grandes e importantes del mundo. Por ejemplo, la retracción de glaciares ecuatoriales en Perú, Ecuador y Bolivia, o la merma en la disponibilidad de agua de los ríos del sureste asiático. Sin embargo, a escala local estos cambios no son tan perceptibles y mucho menos lo serán aquellas variables ambientales no tan visibles y medibles, como la reserva acuífera, indicador de la cantidad potencial per cápita de un país, región o cuenca. Para ello, explicó Suárez Sánchez, se generaron escenarios a partir de un modelo de simulación en WEAP (Water Evaluation and Planning System), con el año 2005 como base para el ajuste respectivo. En el Salón de Seminarios del CCA, el investigador sostuvo que los resultados mostraron que en la subcuenca se captan 779.6 millones de metros cúbicos al año, de los que 65 por ciento se evapotranspiran, 30 por ciento se escurren, y cinco por ciento, se infiltran. El consumo anual de agua en Tlaxcala es de 40.2 millones de metros cúbicos, de los que 80 por ciento es para uso doméstico y 20 por ciento para agricultura de riego. Si se mantiene el mismo comportamiento de consumo y crecimiento poblacional, para 2015, la demanda aumentará 27 por ciento respecto del año base. La reforestación de las zonas erosionadas de la subcuenca del río Zahuapan representaría un incremento del 11 por ciento en el almacenamiento del acuífero para el año 2015 y el tratamiento y uso de aguas residuales para la agricultura de riego, disminuiría en 16 por ciento la demanda para el mismo periodo. La disponibilidad per cápita pasará de mil 165.34 (año base) a 873.77 metros cúbicos por tlaxcalteca al año 2015. http://www.dgcs.unam.mx/boletin/bdboletin/2011_201.html Boletín Científico y Cultural de la Infoteca No. 288 Mayo 2011 4 Sistema de Infotecas Centrales Universidad Autónoma de Coahuila 'Éxito', los secretos del rechazo editorial desvelados Posted: 05 Apr 2011 02:23 AM PDT Hoy os traigo un libro que me ha parecido muy curioso. Y es que quien más quien menos habrá escuchado alguna de esas famosas historias de un libro rechazado por la editorial. Es más, es probable incluso que algunos de nuestros lectores tengan su propia historia que contar al respecto. Pues con Éxito. Un libro sobre el rechazo editorial de Íñigo García Ureta nos adentramos en las complejas relaciones entre editores y autores rechazados. Lo publica Trama Editorial y su precio es 18 euros. En ‘Éxito’ nos encontramos con muchas anécdotas sobre el rechazo editorial. Todos conocemos alguna historia sobre best sellers que fueron rechazados sistemáticamente o incluso autores reconocidos que fueron rechazados por editores al presentar escritos bajo pseudónimo. Sin embargo, este libro quiere ir un paso más allá y pretende desvelar un poco los entresijos de las verdaderas razones que llevan a los editores a rechazar un manuscrito. Anécdotas como las de la revista The Rejected Quarterly, que sólo publica manuscritos que hayan sido rechazados al menos cinco veces, se mezclan con encuestas a profesionales del sector o una descripción detallada del proceso de rechazo de una obra. Una manera de asomarnos al mundo del editor, que no es precisamente la profesión más querida del mundo. El exito es ir de fracaso en fracaso sin perder el entusiasmo Esta bonita cita de Winston Churchill es la que sirvió de inspiración a Íñigo García Ureta a escribir este libro sobre el arte de decir no a los escritores en ciernes. Nacido en Bilbao es el autor de libros como Todo tiene grietas o Escrito en blanco. Ha sido director de La Fábrica Editorial, responsable del área de No Ficción Boletín Científico y Cultural de la Infoteca No. 288 Mayo 2011 5 Sistema de Infotecas Centrales Universidad Autónoma de Coahuila de Ediciones B y ha traducido a autores como Henry James o Michael Frayn. Vaya, que del tema sabe un rato largo… Lo cierto es que aunque nunca me han rechazado nada en ninguna editorial (tampoco he enviado nada, no os creáis…), siempre me ha llamado mucho la atención los entresijos de este mundillo. Lo cierto es que hay que tener un olfato finísimo para reconocer no ya si está bien o mal escrito, sino a superar por un momento gustos y manías personales para dar con algo que puede gustar a miles de lectores, aunque tú personalmente lo odies. Me ha resultado muy curiosa la página personal del autor, donde podréis encontrar un montón de información bastante divertida sobre este libro. Y es que la realidad supera en muchos casos a la ficción.

Para subsistir, los microorganismos como bacterias, virus y ciertos parásitos tratan de adaptarse a todo aquello que podría destruirlos. Se dice que desarrollaron resistencia a los antimicrobianos (RAM) cuando logran soportar el ataque de los medicamentos a los que alguna vez fueron sensibles. Y esa inmunidad a los antibióticos, los antivirales o los antipalúdicos la logran por mutación o por la adquisición de un gen resistente.

  • Dylan Thomas - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Dylan Thomas - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Dylan Thomas(27 October 1914 – 9 November 1953) Dylan Marlais Thomas was a Welsh poet and writer who wrote exclusively in English. In addition to poetry, he wrote short stories and scripts for film and radio, which he often performed himself. His public readings, particularly in America, won him great acclaim; his sonorous voice with a subtle Welsh lilt became almost as famous as his works. His best-known works include the "play for voices" Under Milk Wood and the celebrated villanelle for his dying father, "Do not go gentle into that good night". Appreciative critics have also noted the craftsmanship and compression of poems such as "In my Craft or Sullen Art", and the rhapsodic lyricism in "And death shall have no dominion" and "Fern Hill". <b>Early Life</b> Dylan Thomas was born in the Uplands area of Swansea, Glamorgan, Wales, on 27 October 1914 just a few months after the Thomas family had bought the house. Uplands was, and still is, one of the more affluent areas of the city. His father, David John ('DJ') Thomas (1876–1952), had attained a first-class honours degree in English at University College, Aberystwyth, and was dissatisfied with his position at the local grammar school as an English master who taught English literature. His mother, Florence Hannah Thomas (née Williams) (1882–1958), was a seamstress born in Swansea. Nancy, Thomas's sister, (Nancy Marles 1906–1953) was nine years older than he. Their father brought up both children to speak only English, even though he and his wife were both bilingual in English and Welsh.

(image 2) Uplands was, one of the more affluent place of the city which kept him away from the industrial areas. His father D.J. Thomas was a senior teacher of English at Swansea grammar School and he was regarded as a scholar of Shakespeare. His mother, Florence Hannah Thomas was a seamstress born in Swansea. Nancy, Thomas's sister, was nine years elder to him. Their father brought up both children to speak only English, even though he and his wife was both bilingual in English and Welsh. His childhood was spent largely in Swansea, with regular summer trips to visit his maternal aunts' Carmarthenshire farms. These rural sojourns and the contrast with the town life of Swansea was an inspiration for some of his work, like many short stories, radio essays, and the poem Fern Hill. Thomas was known to be a sickly child who suffered from bronchitis and asthma. He shied away from school and preferred reading on his own.
