TRIFINIO: Transboundary Aquifer Systems in the Upper Lempa River Basin, El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, in Central America
International Conference “Transboundary Aquifers: Challenges and New Directions”(ISARM2010) TRIFINIO: Transboundary Aquifer Systems in the Upper Lempa River Basin, El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, in Central America Mario Samuel Buch1 ; José Mario Guevara2 (1) GTZ-German Technical Cooperation, and Trinacional Commission for the Trifinio Plan, Esquipulas, Guatemala. email: [email protected] (2) National Executive Direction for the Trifinio Plan of El Salvador. email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The Trinacional Commission for the Trifinio Plan is managed by the respective national deputy presidents and works under the slogan ‘Water without borders’, recognizing the importance of water resources for these three countries. This study includes homogenization of existing geological descriptions of different geological units in the Trifinio region. Physical and chemical parameters were measured in the field for about 140 samples. Geoelectrical campaigns were carried out in selected areas to reveal information about the location and hydraulical properties of the principal aquifers. Thus, the first hydrogeological map of the Trifinio region was generated with a scale of 1:100 000. The preliminary results have shown the chemical and isotopic similarities between most surface waters and groundwaters, suggesting both a fast dynamic for most systems and the relevance of local sources of recharge. The precipitation presents a high temporal variation in deuterium (-105.60 ‰ ≤ δ2H 21.66 ‰) and oxygen-18 (-14.76 ‰ ≤ δ18O ≤ 1.37 ‰), due to the combined effects of amount and altitude. Also, a strong seasonally effect can be found. Tritium was determined in 29 samples from wells, springs, rivers and lakes from El Salvador. Observed maximum activity was of 2.09 UT and a minimum of 0.00 UT.

Pearce This thesis analyzes the urban structure development of two Latin American cities through an interactive longitudinal visualization of the Salvadoran cities of San Salvador (the capital of El Salvador) and Santa Tecla. To what extent is a hypothetical model relevant to either of these two cities? How can a longitudinal, interactive visualization assist with an comparative analysis of the relevance of urban expansion models to the development of San Salvador and Santa Tecla? Can such a visualization contribute to the delineation of urban expansion policies for these cities? Archival files and maps were digitized and vectorized to create animated urban evolutions for each city.

Honduras Update
Peace Brigades International-USA Human Rights News HONDURAS November 13, 2019 Honduran President Linked to Drug Trafficking as New York Court Convicts his Brother On October 18, former Honduran Congressman Tony Hernández, the brother of Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez, was convicted by a Manhattan federal court of helping to import more than 200,000 kilos of cocaine into the United States. He was also found to have used heavily armed security, including members of the Honduran National Police, and of coordinating two drug-related murders. He was found guilty on four counts, which included making false statements to federal officials and possessing machine guns in furtherance of the cocaine-importation conspiracy. He is scheduled to be sentenced on January 17, 2020, and faces a sentence of at least forty years. According to the United States Department of Justice, Hernandez funneled the millions of dollars he made through his cocaine trafficking to National Party campaigns to impact Honduran presidential elections in 2009, 2013, and 2017. “Between 2010 and at least 2013,” according to the Department of Justice, “one of Hernandez’ principal co-conspirators was former Sinaloa Cartel leader Joaquín Archivaldo Guzmán Loera, a/k/a ‘Chapo.’ During that period, Hernandez helped Guzmán Loera with numerous large cocaine shipments and delivered a $1 million bribe from Guzmán Loera to Hernandez’ brother,” Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez, “in connection with the 2013 national elections in Honduras.” Recently unsealed court documents indicate that President Juan Orlando Hernández was the target of a DEA investigation in 2015. United States authorities have not brought any charges against him, however.

On the other hand, northwestern years been the scene of several careful stratigraphic excavations. Hence, not the all-important factor of relative time and cultural succession is This factor, quite so obscure here as it is in southern Central America. knowl- coupled with the extremely spotty nature of present archeological than edge concerning Honduras, necessitates a less generalized treatment more was possible in Costa Rica and Nicaragua and permits a somewhat southern pre- careful analysis of the nature of certain northern and important historic cultural thrusts as they intermingled along this very borderland between predominantly South American and northern cultures and peoples. arbitrary For purposes of convenience we shall consider three rather partially cul- regions in Honduras.

Situation: After the suspension of the construction project of new ports, emphasis was shifted to the strengthening of the existing ports, and it was decided to deepen Bahia Blanca and Quequen Ports. In late 1991, the dredging was completed to the depths of 40 - 45 feet at Bahia Blanca, while Quequen is being dredged to the depth of 40 feet.
