  • Scaling up Climate Resilient Water Management Practices for Vulnerable Communities at La Mojana

    Scaling up Climate Resilient Water Management Practices for Vulnerable Communities at La Mojana

    Annex II – Feasibility Study GREEN CLIMATE FUND FUNDING PROPOSAL I Scaling up climate resilient water management practices for vulnerable communities at La Mojana Feasibility Study 30 August 2017 Executive Summary Colombia is exposed to climate related events. Hydrometeorological hazards such as avalanches, floods, flash floods, prolonged dry periods have had the greatest impact on the national territory. During the period 2010 - 2011, the ‘La Niña’ phenomenon caused serious damage in much part of the territory and generated serious social, economic, environmental and political impacts. Because of the magnitude of the disaster, the government declared an economic, social and ecological emergency (Decree 4579 of 2010) and created the Disaster Fund Management (Decree 4709 of 2010) and later the National Disaster Risk Management Fund (Spanish acronym FNGRD). Since then, the government has been strengthening national institutions in order to support the resilience of the population to climate risks, improve safety, welfare and quality of life and contribute towards sustainable development. According to the Third National Communication (TCNCC), climate change scenarios to 2100 indicate that the country as a whole would be affected by climate change and the behaviour of temperature and rainfall would be variable in all regions of Colombia. This implies that each region should take different measures to address the potential impacts of climate change. A gradual change in temperature and precipitation in the country generated by climate change could increase impacts of climatic variability phenomena such as El Niño or La Niña on territories and sectors, which have a greater impact on the territory, and consequently on human health, the rural economy and overall regional competitiveness.

Sampedro Marín, Grupo de Investigación en Biodiversidad Tropical, Universidad de Sucre, Carrera 28 No. 5-267. Sincelejo-Sucre. Colombia. Cellular: 310 602 2262. Abstract : Leptospirosis is one of the most frequent zoonoses worldwide and occurs in tropical, subtropical and temperate areas. The genus Leptospira comprises saprophytic and pathogenic species. The latter isolated from several animals that serve as reservoirs and carriers. The presence of bats in urban areas has increased for various reasons, profusion of plants, lack of predators, presence of luminaries, which has increased the chances of contact between bats, humans and/or pets. The aim of this work was to investigate the presence of pathogenic Leptospira in bats captured in the city of Sincelejo, using the molecular PCR technique. Mist nets were used to capture the bats and these were sacrificed using ether to obtain samples of renal tissue. A fragment of the LipL32 gene was amplified by PCR technique. We identified three families of bats amongst our sample and 26% of them presented pathogenic Leptospira DNA. This represents a great risk to the community in this region. Keywords: Keywords: Chiroptera, bats, leptospires, DNA, zoonoses, infection. Introduction Leptospirosis is recognized as a zoonotic disease of worldwide distribution1 present more frequently in tropical countries.

Their continued management level support has been essential to the development of this monitoring program. Lichen collections and field work: Field work was largely completed by the authors. Mary Muller contributed many lichens to the inventory collected in her capacity as Regional Botanist during the past 10 years. Field work was aided by Sarah Ryll of the Stikine Area, Elizabeth Wilder and Walt Tulecke of Antioch College, and Bill Pawuk, Stikine Area ecologist. Lichen identifications: Help with the lichen identifications was given by Irwin Brodo of the Canadian National Museum, John Thomson of the University of Wisconsin at Madison, Pak Yau Wong of the Canadian National Museum, and Bruce McCune at Oregon State University.

BCP possesses several important pharmacological activities, ranging from pain treatment to neurological and metabolic disorders. These are mainly due to its ability to interact with the cannabinoid receptor 2 (CB2) and the complete lack of interaction with the brain CB1. A systematic analysis of plant species with essential oils containing a BCP percentage > 10% provided almost 300 entries with species belonging to 51 families. The essential oils were found to be extracted from 13 plant parts and samples originated from 56 countries worldwide. Statistical analyses included the evaluation of variability in BCP% and yield% as well as the statistical linkage between families, plant parts and countries of origin by cluster analysis. Identified species were also grouped according to their presence in the Belfrit list. The survey evidences the importance of essential oil yield evaluation in support of the chemical analysis. The results provide a comprehensive picture of the species with the highest BCP and yield percentages. Keywords: plant species; essential oil; yield; percentages of (E)-β-caryophyllene; Belfrit list; plant part; geographical origin 1.

No, that country has so very much more! And certainly it has a rich and beautiful flora. Chile’s plant world is strongly diversified and shows inter- esting geographical and evolutionary patterns. This is due to several factors: The geographical position of the country on the edge of a continental plate and stretch- ing along an extremely long latitudinal gradient from the tropics to the cold, barren rocks of Cape Horn, opposite Antarctica; the strong differences in altitude from sea level to the icy peaks of the Andes; the inclusion of distant islands in the country’s territory; the long geological and evolutionary history of the biota; and the mixture of tropical and temperate floras.
