Hábitats Críticos para el Tiburón Martillo. López, 2011 RESUMEN El tiburón martillo (Sphyrna lewini) es una especie cosmopolita que habita en aguas cálidas tropicales y subtropicales. En zonas costeras los juveniles y adultos son capturados por artes de pesca artesanales y camaroneras; mientras que en aguas pelágicas, los adultos son vulnerables a las líneas largas o palangres. En la actualidad S. lewini está siendo protegido en islas oceánicas del Pacifico Este Tropical (PET), como Isla del Coco y las Galápagos, áreas donde los adultos transcurren en las estaciones de limpieza. Sin embargo, aún no han sido identificadas, ni protegidas, áreas utilizadas por los juveniles de esta especie en la zona costera del PET. Debido a lo anterior, este proyecto identificó y evaluó hábitats críticos costeros utilizados por tiburones y rayas, en especial por S. lewini en Golfo Dulce, a fin de recomendar estrategias de manejo para su conservación. En la primera etapa (marzo-mayo 2010) se recolectó Conocimiento Ecológico Tradicional (CET) por medio de 52 encuestas y dos talleres en diferentes comunidades.

  • F. Cocos I Malay
    This is the published version Welsh,A 2015, Cocos Malay Language since integration with Australia, Shima: the international journal of research into island cultures, vol. 9, no. 1, pp. 53- 68. Available from Deakin Research Online http://hdl.handle.net/10536/DRO/DU:30072695 Reproduced with the kind permission of the copyright owner Copyright: 2015, Macquarie University Welsh: Cocos Malay language COCOS MALAY LANGUAGE SINCE INTEGRATION WITH AUSTRALIA ALISTAIR WELSH Deakin University <[email protected]> Abstract The Cocos (Keeling) Islands are a remote Australian territory in the Indian Ocean and are home to the Cocos Malay people, who have developed a distinct dialect. It was predicted over 30 years ago that the Cocos Malay language faced extinction, perhaps even within the timeframe of one generation. Two possible threats to the Cocos Malay language were identified. It was felt that English, as the language of power, may replace the Cocos Malay language. The other possibility was language convergence, where Cocos Malay would be subsumed by another, larger Malay dialect. With these issues in mind, I explore developments in the Cocos Malay language since the Islands’ full integration with Australia in 1984. Drawing from extensive ethnographic work and linguistic research into Cocos Malay I also refer to the work of other researchers to analyse how the Cocos Malay language has developed over the past 30 years, in a time of great social change. I argue that integration with Australia and attempts at assimilation have resulted in social dynamics where Cocos Malay language remains a defining marker of Cocos Malay identity positioning.

  • Cocos Island National Park Costa Rica
    COCOS ISLAND NATIONAL PARK COSTA RICA Cocos Island, isolated 530 km southwest of the coast of Costa Rica, is the only island in the tropical eastern Pacific with a rainforest. It also possessed the richest and most extensive coral reef in the east Pacific. Its productive waters are a distribution centre for marine larvae and hold large aggregations of sharks. Its many interactions with the surrounding seas make it an ideal laboratory for studying biological processes. It is also a magnificent diving site and one of the best places in the world to see large pelagic species such as sharks, rays, tuna and dolphins. COUNTRY Costa Rica NAME Cocos Island National Park NATURAL WORLD HERITAGE SITE 1997: Inscribed on the World Heritage List under Natural Criteria ix, x. 2002: Marine Zone extended by 100,000 ha. STATEMENT OF OUTSTANDING UNIVERSAL VALUE [pending] The UNESCO World Heritage Committee issued the following statement at the time of inscription: Justification for Inscription The Committee inscribed Cocos Island National Park under natural criteria (ix) and (x) because of the critical habitats the site provides for marine wildlife including large pelagic species, especially sharks. INTERNATIONAL DESIGNATION 1998: Designated a Wetland of International Importance under the Ramsar Convention (99,623 ha). IUCN MANAGEMENT CATEGORY II National Park BIOGEOGRAPHICAL PROVINCE Cocos Island (8.43.13) GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION The island is 532 km southwest of Puntarenas on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica, and 630 km northeast of the Galapagos Islands.

  • NSW Vagrant Bird Review
    an atlas of the birds of new south wales and the australian capital territory Vagrant Species Ian A.W. McAllan & David J. James The species listed here are those that have been found on very few occasions (usually less than 20 times) in NSW and the ACT, and are not known to have bred here. Species that have been recorded breeding in NSW are included in the Species Accounts sections of the three volumes, even if they have been recorded in the Atlas area less than 20 times. In determining the number of records of a species, when several birds are recorded in a short period together, or whether alive or dead, these are here referred to as a ‘set’ of records. The cut-off date for vagrant records and reports is 31 December 2019. As with the rest of the Atlas, the area covered in this account includes marine waters east from the NSW coast to 160°E. This is approximately 865 km east of the coast at its widest extent in the south of the State. The New South Wales-Queensland border lies at about 28°08’S at the coast, following the centre of Border Street through Coolangatta and Tweed Heads to Point Danger (Anon. 2001a). This means that the Britannia Seamounts, where many rare seabirds have been recorded on extended pelagic trips from Southport, Queensland, are east of the NSW coast and therefore in NSW and the Atlas area. Conversely, the lookout at Point Danger is to the north of the actual Point and in Queensland but looks over both NSW and Queensland marine waters.

  • MALAY STUDIES CHAIR at VICTORIA UNIVERSITY (Bernama
    09 JUL 1997 Malay Studies MALAY STUDIES CHAIR AT VICTORIA UNIVERSITY By: Azman Hashim WELLINGTON, July 9 (Bernama) -- The Malay Studies Chair at Victoria University of Wellington (VUW) here will accept its first batch of students for the degree in Malay Studies in February next year. Profesor Hood Salleh, who holds the Malay Studies Chair UVW, said the group of 15 students of various races would begin their studies in English at the Asia Studies Institute which would be under the university's Faculty of Humanities and Social Science. He said so far the VUW had approved the "Asia 202 : Malay World and Civilisation" course which was taught to second year students after they had obtained six or 12 credit hours in other fields. "After that we will follow it up with the Bahasa Malaysia course which we are preparing," he told Bernama after attending a meeting between Information Minister Datuk Mohamed Rahmat and Malaysian students studying at various universities here. Mohamed, who is on a five-day visit to New Zealand since Sunday,arrived from Auckland yesterday to continue with his itinerary here. Prof Hood, former associate director of the Institute of Environment and Development, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) said the first batch of Malay Studies Honours Graduates would emerge in four years from the date the course began. Apart from the first degree students, the VUW Malay Studies Chair, had also accepted applications from three students for a course leading to the Masters degree and one for the Ph D, he said. "So far I am the only lecturer but I have applied to get another person to teach the Malay language," he said.

  • Contact Languages: Ecology and Evolution in Asia
    This page intentionally left blank Contact Languages Why do groups of speakers in certain times and places come up with new varieties of languages? What are the social settings that determine whether a mixed language, a pidgin, or a Creole will develop, and how can we under- stand the ways in which different languages contribute to the new grammar? Through the study of Malay contact varieties such as Baba and Bazaar Malay, Cocos Malay, and Sri Lanka Malay, as well as the Asian Portuguese ver- nacular of Macau, and China Coast Pidgin, the book explores the social and structural dynamics that underlie the fascinating phenomenon of the creation of new, or restructured, grammars. It emphasizes the importance and inter- play of historical documentation, socio-cultural observation, and linguistic analysis in the study of contact languages, offering an evolutionary frame- work for the study of contact language formation – including pidgins and Creoles – in which historical, socio-cultural, and typological observations come together. umberto ansaldo is Associate Professor in Linguistics at the University of Hong Kong. He was formerly a senior researcher and lecturer with the Amsterdam Center for Language and Communication at the University of Amsterdam.

  • A Review of the Malaysia's Heritage Delicacy Alongside with The
    Ismail et al. Journal of Ethnic Foods (2021) 8:19 Journal of Ethnic Foods https://doi.org/10.1186/s42779-021-00095-3 REVIEW ARTICLE Open Access The Malay’s traditional sweet, dodol:a review of the Malaysia’s heritage delicacy alongside with the rendition of neighbouring countries Norsyahidah Ismail1, Muhammad Shahrim Ab. Karim1* , Farah Adibah Che Ishak1, Mohd Mursyid Arsyad2, Supatra Karnjamapratum3 and Jiraporn Sirison3 Abstract The Malaysia’s cultural heritage is authentic, unique and colourful with various local cuisines of different races and cultures. It is mainly originated from the Malay culture being the largest ethnic group in the country. The Malays themselves have contributed to many local cuisines ranging from appetiser, soup, main course and dessert. However, some Malay heritage foods have almost been forgotten and jeopardized in quality. This is especially happening to the Malay sweets or desserts which have gradually become less appealing to the younger generations. They are not even familiar with Malay foods, let alone consuming them. Among the popular Malay heritage foods in Malaysia are lemang, ketupat, rendang, wajik and dodol. Dodol specifically has been listed as one of the endangered heritage foods in Malaysia. Preserving the Malay cuisines is part of sustaining the Malay culture and this should begin with a great amount of knowledge and understanding about any elements within the culture itself. This article highlights a nostalgic and evergreen Malay’s traditional sweet, known by the locals as dodol by discussing its history, different types and names of dodol, as well as the recipes, preparation, cooking methods and packaging.
