Society for Conservation scgis.org Society for Conservation GIS Society for Conservation GIS 16th Annual SCGIS International Conference July 16–18, 2013 Pacific Grove, California Marine and Freshwater Conservation A Message from the Conference Committee Life depends on water. Oceans, estuaries, rivers, lakes, streams—they make up the natural systems that no one can live without. They support an abundance of life on earth, providing food, energy, medicines, and livelihoods across the globe. Given the constant draw from these precious resources, it is not surprising that they are in trouble right now. Pollution, overdevelopment, overfishing, and climate change are only a few of the major dangers to our waters. As our lives depend on marine and freshwater health, it is in our best interest to find solutions that will improve our relationship with the water that sustains us. You will spend the next few days with colleagues and peers with a shared passion for conservation solutions. Now that you are surrounded by talented experts with keen interest in conservation and GIS, please take the time to learn from each other. Carolyn Hughes, The Nature Conservancy David Asbury, Esri 2013 SCGIS Conference Committee Cochairs Conference Tips • Use this program to familiarize yourself with events and locations. • A map is on the back cover, and the last few pages are for note-taking and to help you track what you want to see. • Pace yourself—you can’t see or do everything. • Set priorities. • Remain flexible. • Skip something and relax if you need to. • Catnaps are great. • Drink lots of water. • Wear your name badge so we can all meet each other with great ease. • Be on time—it is respectful. • For questions, head over to Scripps and ask a friendly SCGIS volunteer. • Attend the evening socials and hopefully you will make new friends.

The first project illustrates basic raster functionality by determining wildland fire hazard zones. The second project demonstrates more advanced analysis to locate sites for elephant conservation zones in Kenya and to do cost path analysis to find the least-cost path between an elephant herd and a reserve area. This class will cover the following topics: • Understanding raster GIS • Using DEM elevation files • Using Map Algebra for spatial analysis • Using the Raster Calculator • Cost Distance Analysis • Analysis of properties & commands • Distance, Viewshed & Proximity Grids • Using GRID commands • Site Suitability Analysis 8 Workshop 2: Tools, Concepts, and Case Studies in Marine Spatial Planning Room: Oak Shelter Presenter(s): Dr. Steve Schill, The Nature Conservancy Marine spatial planning (MSP) is a process that brings together multiple users of the ocean to make informed and coordinated decisions about how to use marine resources sustainably. The goal of MSP is to achieve an optimal balance of marine resource use by reducing conflicts between users and maintaining ecological processes and the ecosystem services they support. This course will provide an overview of the MSP process, which is often facilitated by the use of GIS-based tools. We will review a variety of MSP case studies, discussing the following topics: • Techniques for stakeholder participation • Tools that can be used to map important ecological areas and current human uses • Modeling and assessing cumulative impacts, conflicts, and compatibilities • Tools for creating and visualizing alternative spatial-use scenarios and analyzing tradeoffs • Investigating methods for ecosystem-based adaptation to climate change in coastal areas Workshop 3: SeaSketch Room: Toyon Presenter(s): Dr. Will McClintock and Evan Paul SeaSketch (www.seasketch.org) is a software service for collaborative geodesign and marine spatial planning. In this workshop, we will review how SeaSketch is currently being used for marine spatial planning around the world and lead each workshop participant through the process of setting up their own SeaSketch project. Using SeaSketch, each participant will (a) define their geography of interest, (b) upload existing map services from ArcGIS Online into SeaSketch, (c) create and invite users and groups to participate in their project, (d) define “sketch classes” for marine management zones, (e) create map-based discussion forums, and (f) create a simple geospatial survey to collect data on human uses of the ocean. As such, workshop participants will gain an overview of how to build an end-to-end, web-based mapping solution for marine spatial planning. 9 Opening Session Schedule Tuesday, July 16 | Chapel 9:00 AM–9:10 AM Introduction and Thanks Carolyn Hughes and David Asbury Conference Committee Cochairs 9:10 AM–9:25 AM Introduction of 2013 International Scholars Sasha Yumakaev Esri Conservation Program Coordinator 9:25 AM–9:35 AM Welcome Rob Rose SCGIS President 9:35 AM–10:20 AM Keynote Presentation Kimokeo Kapahulehua 10:20 AM–10:30 AM Announcements and Closing Carolyn Hughes and David Asbury Conference Committee Cochairs 10 Keynote Presenter Kimokeo Kapahulehua Kimokeo is a “kupuna,” or elder, in the Hawaiian community of Maui.

  • Transnationality, Translationality, and Appropriation in Tulio Carella's
    Challenging Lusofonia: Transnationality, Translationality, and Appropriation in Tulio Carella’s Orgía/Orgia and Hermilo Borba Filho’s Deus no pasto SEVERINO J. ALBUQUERQUE University of Wisconsin-Madison Abstract: During his 1960-61 stint as theater professor in Recife, Argentinian playwright and critic Tulio Carella (1912-1979) kept a diary that disappeared during Argentina’s Dirty War. Before its disappearance, Carella’s colleague and friend Hermilo Borba Filho (1917-1976) translated the text into Portuguese and published it in Brazil as Orgia (1968). Four years later, Hermilo inserted much of his translation of Carella’s text into his own novel, Deus no pasto. This unusual translation flow highlights issues such as the displacement of the original, the validity of adaptive transformation, and the challenging of normative fonias. I explore the transnationality of Carella’s diary, asking whether a text extant only in Portuguese can form part of the Hispanophone canon and whether a text not originally written in Portuguese can be considered part of the Lusophone canon. Keywords: Translation, adaptation, Brazilian literature, Argentinian literature, Lusofonia During his short tenure (1960-1961) in the then-recently created drama and theater program at the Escola de Belas Artes do Recife (later a department within 186 Journal of Lusophone Studies 4.1 (Spring 2019) the U Federal de Pernambuco), the Argentinian playwright and critic Tulio Carella (1912-1979) kept a personal diary in which he catalogued numerous interclass and interracial encounters with men he met in the streets of downtown Recife.1 The notebooks were found in his apartment following his detention on suspicion of being a Cuban agent at a time of intense political polarization in Northeastern Brazil (Nordeste) in the years preceding the 1964 civilian-military coup.

POVAR AND JASON MACHAN, CONSULTING EDITORS ELVA MATHIESEN, ASSISTANT EDITOR ALLAN M. SCHRIER, FOUNDING EDITOR, 1962-1987 Published Quarterly by the Schrier Research Laboratory Psychology Department, Brown University Providence, Rhode Island ISSN 0023-6861 POLICY STATEMENT The Laboratory Primate Newsletter provides a central source of information about nonhuman primates and related matters to scientists who use these animals in their research and those whose work supports such research. The Newsletter (1) provides information on care and breeding of nonhuman primates for laboratory research, (2) disseminates general information and news about the world of primate research (such as announcements of meetings, research projects, sources of information, nomenclature changes), (3) helps meet the special research needs of individual investigators by publishing requests for research material or for information related to specific research problems, and (4) serves the cause of conservation of nonhuman primates by publishing information on that topic. As a rule, research articles or summaries accepted for the Newsletter have some practical implications or provide general information likely to be of interest to investigators in a variety of areas of primate research. However, special consideration will be given to articles containing data on primates not conveniently publishable elsewhere. General descriptions of current research projects on primates will also be welcome. The Newsletter appears quarterly and is intended primarily for persons doing research with nonhuman primates. Back issues may be purchased for $10.00 each. We are no longer printing paper issues, except those we will send to subscribers who have paid in advance.
