Dueñas2, Valeria Pizarro3 1 Unidad de Ecología y Sistemática, Departamento de Biología, Facultad de Ciencias, Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, Bogotá, D.C., Colombia. 2 Laboratorio de Biología Molecular Marina - BIOMMAR, Departamento de Ciencias Biológicas, Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad de los Andes, Bogotá, D.C., Colombia. 3 Programa de Biología Marina, Facultad de Ciencias Naturales, Universidad Jorge Tadeo Lozano. Santa Marta. Colombia. * [email protected] Recibido: 28-02-2011; Aceptado: 11-05-2011 Abstract Recruitment, defined and measured as the incorporation of new individuals (i.e. coral juveniles) into a population, is a fundamental process for ecologists, evolutionists and conservationists due to its direct effect on population structure and function. Because most coral populations are self-feeding, a breakdown in recruitment would lead to local extinction. Recruitment indirectly affects both renewal and maintenance of existing and future coral communities, coral reef biodiversity (bottom-up effect) and therefore coral reef resilience. This process has been used as an indirect measure of individual reproductive success (fitness) and is the final stage of larval dispersal leading to population connectivity. As a result, recruitment has been proposed as an indicator of coral-reef health in marine protected areas, as well as a central aspect of the decision-making process concerning management and conservation.

Guests will need to make do without a sauna, an aromatherapy shower, a 30m infinity pool! Luxury here is about location and privacy. On the front deck in the mornings, the only sounds are birdsong and the murmur of a stream in the forests below. But it is the situation that stuns. An eyrie high on the shoulders of the Sierra Nevada, Casa Galavanta enjoys views down to Santa Marta and the Caribbean far below. In the afternoon, clouds roll in until the house seems to be unconnected to the world, afloat in a misty heaven. By the evening the clouds have vanished again, and from the terrace the distant lights of Santa Marta twinkle like a fallen constellation.” HIGHLIGHTS To name just a few… A kaleidoscope of colour & senses, Colombia houses some of the worlds most vibrant street art scenes. Unlock these behind the scenes gems with a private guide including an exclusive visit to an art collector’s penthouse in Colombia Capital, Bogota, where he hosts one of Colombia’s largest and most impressive private art collections.

RESUMEN n el Caribe sur se presentan dos áreas principales de surgencia, la Guajira colombiana y el oriente de Venezuela; sin embargo, la producción pesquera es muy desigual, a pesar de que en la Guajira la intensidad del viento es mayor y teóricamente la surgencia es Emás intensa. Por esta razón, debería tener una producción pesquera mayor que la venezolana, lo que no ocurre. Se plantean las posibles causas de esta notable diferencia y se comentan aspectos relacionados con el viento, la hidrografía, la concentración de nutrientes, la biomasa del fitoplancton, la plataforma continental, el aporte de ríos, la presencia de islas y otros factores. El oriente de Venezuela tiene mayor fertilidad y producción pesquera porque la masa de Agua Subsuperficial Subtropical es la que abastece la surgencia durante los primeros meses del año (sequía). En el segundo semestre, cuando la surgencia se relaja, el área se enriquece con materia orgánica del río Orinoco y el aporte de biomasa fitoplanctónica proveniente de lagunas costeras, golfos y bahías semicerradas.

    Coral Diseases and Bleaching on Colombian Caribbean Coral Reefs

Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas y Costeras, INVEMAR, Punta de Betín, Zona Portuaria, Santa Marta, Colombia; [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], jgarzon@ invemar.org.co 2. Present address: Brewster Academy, 80 Academy Drive, Wolfeboro, NH 03894, [email protected] Received 31-VIII-2009. Corrected 07-XI-2009. Accepted 12-XII-2009. Abstract: Since 1998 the National Monitoring System for the Coral Reefs of Colombia (SIMAC) has moni- tored the occurrence of coral bleaching and diseases in some Colombian coral reefs (permanent stations at San Andres Island, Rosario Islands, Tayrona, San Bernardo Islands and Urabá). The main purpose is to evaluate their health status and to understand the factors that have been contributing to their decline. To estimate these occurrences, annual surveys in 126 permanent belt transects (10x2m) with different depth intervals (3-6 meters, 9-12 meters and 15-18 meters) are performed at all reef sites. Data from the 1998-2004 period, revealed that San Andrés Island had many colonies with diseases (38.9 colonies/m2), and Urabá had high numbers with bleaching (54.4 colonies/m2). Of the seven reported coral diseases studied, Dark Spots Disease (DSD), and White Plague Disease (WPD) were noteworthy because they occurred in all Caribbean monitored sites, and because of their high interannual infection incidence. Thirty five species of scleractinian corals were affected by at least one disease and a high incidence of coral diseases on the main reef builders is documented.

    Periodic Report (Convention) A. General information Name of State Party Colombia Date of Ratification 2008-03-19 Question A.1 Executive summary Please provide an executive summary of the report that will allow general readers to understand the overall status of legislative, regulatory and other measures taken at the national level to implement the Convention. This should follow the organizational structure of the form. Colombia adopted the Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage (2003) through Law 1037 of 2006, an instrument of ratification accepted by UNESCO in 2008. Since the adoption, Colombia issued Law 1185 of 2008, which introduces intangible cultural heritage into the national legislative framework and creates the Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage (LRPCI) at the national level, the main instrument of inventory and registration of intangible cultural heritage in Colombia, as well as establishing the obligation of identification and safeguarding of ICH, under the leadership of the Ministry of Culture. The List is aimed at promoting the construction of Special Safeguarding Plans (PES) for relevant or at-risk elements throughout the country as instruments built in a participatory manner by the communities. The Special Safeguarding Plans contain a broad characterization of the element, diagnosis of its viability and formulation of measures to guarantee its safeguarding, which is updated periodically through a participatory review and monitoring process every 5 years. This mechanisms is regulated by Decree 1080 of 2015, modified and added by Decree 2358 of 2019. Additionally, in 2009, Colombia adopted, in compliance with the mandates of the Convention, the Safeguarding Policy for Intangible Cultural Heritage.

ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS One Hundred Years of Servitude: The Colombian Labor Movement 1848-1948 by Curtis D. Curiy Florida International University, 1992 Miami, Florida Professor Guillermo Grenier, Major Professor The current study seeks not only to place into focus the general patterns of social and economic organization prevalent in Colombia in the late nineteenth centuiy and the early twentieth (such political and economic organization has been ably illustrated by several authors), but also strives to elucidate the systems of thought or 'ideologies' to which such socio-economic and political structures gave rise. It is concerned with the thought-systems that influenced the development of the Colombian labor movement, those of actors external to organized labor and indigenous systems of thought of labor activists themselves. The hypothesis is that class and party-based interests channelled the early development of organized labor toward a path that would further, or failing that, not conflict with dominant élite interests.
