  • Buenos Aires to Lima By
    FH {SR--27 The Bolivar Hotel Lima, Peru August 31, 1942 Dear hr. <oer s It is surprising how simple and relatively unexciting it seems to fly. Saturday, August 22, I climbed aboard a seven-ton, two-motored anagra plane and took off for the first time in my.life on the first lap of a 6,000 mile air journey--Buenos Aires to iiami. We were off and away without a bump. In a few minutes we were roaring high above the pampa. There is no reason to get poetic about a bird's eye view of the rGentine plains. For two and a half hours, at seven thousand feet, we moved over the flat gra. in belt. I amused myself by looking at the edge of the ing and watching one field after another come into view. That way one 5or the feeling of mo- tion.. any of the fields, I knew, were as large as five hundred or a thousand acres. One could count the chacras below. Every primitive bin or two meant a chacra. One could look right down upon th yel'low ,aize in thcorntrojes, uncovered and unpro- tected from the elements. Estancias were umistakable too, for stately groves of trees numbered them. Trees stood out best of all. In two hours flyin time the .green of the green fields bec-ame lighter, ore delicate, and I kno: that C6rdoba could not be very far away. Surely enoush, 6rdoba came into view, restin in a natural de- pression at the foot of the sierras and at the edge of the pampa.

    2014 Press release 03 June 2014 Prime Minister's Office REMINDER: German Chancellor Angela Merkel, British Prime Minister David Cameron and Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte to Harpsund On Monday and Tuesday 9-10 June, Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt will host a high-level meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, British Prime Minister David Cameron and Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte at Harpsund. The European Union needs to improve job creation and growth now that the EU is gradually recovering from the economic crisis. At the same time, the EU is facing institutional changes with a new European Parliament and a new European Commission taking office in the autumn. Sweden, Germany, the UK and the Netherlands are all reform and growth-oriented countries. As far as Sweden is concerned, it will be important to emphasise structural reforms to boost EU competitiveness, strengthen the Single Market, increase trade relations and promote free movement. These issues will be at the centre of the discussions at Harpsund. Germany, the UK and the Netherlands, like Sweden, are on the World Economic Forum's list of the world's ten most competitive countries. It is natural, therefore, for these countries to come together to compare experiences and discuss EU reform. Programme points: Monday 9 June 18.30 Chancellor Merkel, PM Cameron and PM Rutte arrive at Harpsund; outdoor photo opportunity/door step. Tuesday 10 June 10.30 Joint concluding press conference. Possible further photo opportunities will be announced later. Accreditation is required through the MFA International Press Centre. Applications close on 4 June at 18.00.

Received: 30 October 2019; Accepted: 2 December 2019; Published: 10 December 2019 Abstract: Lima has become the first Peruvian megacity with more than 10 million people, resulting from the migration waves from the countryside throughout the 20th century, which have also contributed to the diverse ethnic background of today’s city. The paper analyzes two neighborhoods located in the inter-district area of Northern Lima: Pampa de Cueva and El Ermitaño as paradigmatic cases of the city’s expansion through non-formal settlements during the 1960s. They represent a relevant case study because of their complex urbanization process, the presence of pre-Hispanic heritage, their location in vulnerable hillside areas in the fringe with a protected natural landscape, and their potential for sustainable local economic development. The article traces back the consolidation process of these self-built neighborhoods or barriadas within the context of Northern Lima as a new centrality for the metropolitan area.

  • The Role of Alien Plants in the Natural Coastal Vegetation in Central-Northern Spain
    Biodiversity and Conservation 13: 2275–2293, 2004. # 2004 Kluwer Academic Publishers. Printed in the Netherlands. The role of alien plants in the natural coastal vegetation in central-northern Spain JUAN ANTONIO CAMPOS, MERCEDES HERRERA*, IDOIA BIURRUN and JAVIER LOIDI Department of Plant Biology and Ecology, The University of the Basque Country, Apdo. 644, E-48080 Bilbao, Spain; *Author for correspondence (e-mail: [email protected]; fax: +34-94- 4648500) Received 15 November 2002; accepted in revised form 4 August 2003 Key words: Alien plants, Baccharis halimifolia, Coastal vegetation, Habitats conservation, Invasive plants, Northern Spain, Phytosociology Abstract. Alien plants in coastal habitats and their influence on natural vegetation are studied. After 5 years working on this subject in the Basque Country and surrounding areas, a number of results from the coastal ecosystems are presented. These ecosystems are one of the most threatened and affected by the invasion of alien plants, especially shore dunes, saltmarshes and cliffs. These kinds of habitats, especially the dunes, experience significant pressure from human activities which favours the expansion of some of these species: Arctotheca calendula, Sporobolus indicus and Oe- nothera spp. The presence and abundance of these invasive plants and others such as Baccharis halimifolia, Cortaderia selloana, Spartina patens and Carpobrotus edulis in the plant communities in an area between the French border and the western part of the region of Cantabria have been studied. The degree of invasion of each plant in each syntaxonomic unit has been analysed. Glossary Alien plants Synanthropic species of exotic origin, deliberately or accidentally in- troduced. Archaeophytes Alien plants permanently established but older immigrants, before 1500 A.C.
