Coelho e Ana Gomes Grupo de Trabalho Português para o Estudo do Quaternário (GTPEQ) & Asociación Española para el Estudio del Cuaternario (AEQUA) VII Reunião do Quaternário Ibérico “O futuro do ambiente da Península Ibérica – as lições do passado geológico recente” Faro, Portugal 5 – 9 de Outubro de 2009 LIVRO DE RESUMOS LIBRO DE RESÚMENES Editado por: Tomasz Boski, Delminda Moura & Ana Gomes CIMA – Centro de Investigação Marinha e Ambiental Universidade do Algarve ISBN: 978-989-95636-4-3 PREFÁCIO A crescente importância sócio-económica e política que é atribuída às mudanças climáticas, coloca desafios completamente novos aos Quaternaristas, em termos do fornecimento e interpretação de dados acerca do passado geológico recente, assim como, da extrapolação para futuras tendências evolutivas. No entanto, as tão procuradas previsões dos cenários ambientais futuros, só podem ser conseguidas através da compreensão das inter-relações entre os fenómenos actuantes à escala global, regional e local, exigindo para tal, a integração de informação de carácter multidisciplinar. O Intercâmbio científico entre os Quaternaristas de Portugal e de Espanha através das reuniões bianuais - REQUI, ultrapassa já duas décadas e tem contribuído activamente para aquele objectivo. Além de promover a discussão e a divulgação dos mais recentes desenvolvimentos do nosso conhecimento sobre a evolução recente do clima, das paisagens, dos ecossistemas e da adaptação do Homem a essas mudanças, o REQUI afirma a importância das línguas ibéricas como veículo de comunicação da ciência. O Centro de Investigação Marinha e Ambiental - CIMA da Universidade do Algarve aceitou o desafio, colocado pela Asociación Española de Estúdios Cuaternários e pelo Grupo de Trabalho Português para o Estudo de Quaternário, para organizar a VII REQUI. Sentimo-nos honrados por esta manifestação de confiança, esperando que a VII Reunião do Quaternário Ibérico contribua para reforçar tanto os laços existentes entre as duas comunidades científicas como a merecida posição de destaque que as Ciências do Quaternário ocupam na sociedade. Pela Comissão de Organização Tomasz Boski & Delminda Moura PREFACIO La creciente importancia socio-económica y política atribuida a los cambios climáticos, coloca desafíos completamente nuevos a los Cuaternaristas en términos de la producción e interpretación de datos sobre el pasado geológico reciente, como así también, de su extrapolación para futuras tendencias evolutivas. Sin embargo, las tan buscadas previsiones de los escenarios ambientales futuros, solo pueden ser conseguidas a través de la comprensión de las inter-relaciones entre los fenómenos que actúan a escala global, regional y local, exigiendo para esto, la integración de información de carácter multidisciplinaria. El intercambio científico entre los cuaternaristas de Portugal y España a través de las reuniones bianuales REQUI existe hace ya más de dos décadas y ha contribuído activamente para estos objetivos. Además de promover la discusión y divulgación de los mas recientes hallazgos científicos producto del desarrollo de nuestros conocimientos sobre la evolución reciente del clima, del ambiente, de los ecosistemas y de la adaptación del Hombre a dichos cambios, el REQUI fortalece la importancia de las lenguas ibéricas como vehículo de comunicación de la ciencia. El Centro de Investigación Marina y Ambiental (CIMA) de la Universidad de Algarve, aceptó el desafío lanzado por la Asociación Española de Estudios Cuaternarios y por el Grupo de Trabajo Portugués para el Estudio del Cuaternario, a fin de organizar la VII REQUI. Nos sentimos honrados por esta manifestación de confianza, esperando que la VII Reunión del Cuaternario Ibérico contribuya para reforzar, tanto los lazos existentes entre las dos comunidades científicas, como la merecida y destacada posición que las Ciencias del Cuaternario ocupan en el conjunto de la sociedad.

  • Population Decline and Associated Social Phenomena: a Case Study in Asturias (Spain)
    Population decline and associated social phenomena: a case study in Asturias (Spain) Maties Reus Pons S2366894 [email protected] Master’s thesis Supervisor: prof. dr. C. H. Mulder Master of Science in Population Studies Population Research Centre Rijksuniversiteit Groningen Groningen, August 8th 2013 ABSTRACT. The aim of this study is to determine the major components of population change in Asturias, as well as to find empirical evidence of several social phenomena that can be expected to be associated with population decline from a theoretical point of view. These social phenomena are ageing, human capital, economic resources, housing, local services, and tourism. Bivariate linear regression models are calculated as sophisticated description to prove these associations, as the causality direction is not clear from a theoretical point of view. A multivariate regression model is calculated as well. For those variables for which no appropriate data is available to calculate a regression model, a more simple analysis and literature review is done to prove the associations. The relationships between population decline and ageing, human capital, economic resources, and local services have been proved. Tourism has been found to be a key variable that moderates and even reverses population decline in the areas where it is more developed. Unfortunately, the association between population decline and housing could not be proven due to a lack of appropriate data. The Koenker tests suggest that the relationships modelled are stationary and that geographically weighted regression models would not add any relevant information to the study. KEY WORDS: population decline, social phenomena, natural balance, migration balance, Asturias, Spain.

More accurate models of glacier evolution have been defined based 9 on limnogeological, geochronological and geomorphological data. In the Pyrenees, OSL (Optically 10 Stimulated Luminescence), surface exposure and radiocarbon dating techniques have identified end 11 moraines and fluvial terraces corresponding to MIS 6 (about 170 ka) and even to MIS 8 (about 260 12 ka), and also established the timing of the last local glacial maxima as prior to global LGM (MIS 4, 13 ca.

  • Deglaciation in the Cantabrian Mountains: Pattern and Evolution

SERRANO1*, M. GÓMEZ-LENDE1, R. PELLITERO2, J.J. GONZÁLEZ-TRUEBA3 1*Department of Geography, University of Valladolid, 47011 Valladolid, Spain. 2Department of Geography & Environment, University of Aberdeen. United Kingdom. 3 CIESE-C, University of Cantabria, Comillas, Spain. ABSTRACT. The last deglaciation of the Cantabrian Mountain began later than 30 ka ago, after a local glacier maximum. After this glaciation a moderate glacier retreat occurred during a less cold period, followed by a new glacier advance that deposited moraines close to the maximum extension moraine complexes. This cold but very dry period occurred between~ 22-18 ka and it was related to European LGM. Dating made during the last 12 years support a distinctive model of deglaciation history for the last glacial cycle, different to North European and analogous to NW Iberian Mountains and the Pyrenees. The most important deglaciation phase began after 18 ka, when ice disappeared of the lower massifs, icefields withdraw and the main tongue glaciers divided in minor tongues. From ~14 to ~11 ka a new cold period implied a glacier growth dominated by topoclimatic factors in the massifs above 2100. Only on the highest massifs glaciers developed in all orientations, together withrock glaciers established mainly to the North orientations. During the Holocene there are not evidences of glacial stages and the deglaciation was complete. Only four small glaciers were developed during the Little Ice Age in the Picos de Europa, disappearing at the end of the XIX century.

A core drilled in an ice-dammed deposit provided a minimum age of 28 990 ± 230 years BP for the maximum glacial expansion (phase I). Another core from a cirque bottom-fill provided organic sediment with 20 640 ± 300 years BP, a minimum age for the first glacial retreat (phase II). Radiometric dating of proglacial deposits interpreted as synchronous with the last glacial maximum phase in neighbouring Comella basin (Picos de Europa), yield ages of 40 480 ± 820 years BP. The chronological data presented in this work are consistent with the model of glacier evolution established in the Pyrénées, with a glacial maximum phase for the last glacial period older than 18 ka. © 2002 Éditions scientifiques et médicales Elsevier SAS.

The Enol glacier retreated from its maximum extent prior to 40 kyr BP as demonstrated by the onset of proglacial lacustrine sedimentation in two glaciated depressions, the Comella Hollow to the north (before 40 kyrs BP) and the Lago Enol (before 38 kyrs BP).

The study of a Cantabrian massif, the Asón platform and summits, provides new data on the extent and timing of the local last glaciation. Here we can place the last maximal extent of glaciers during Early Würm, according to OSL dating on till samples. The main glaciers developed at least between 78- 65 ka BP, well centred on MIS 4 and even the transition to MIS 5. The erosive efficacy of these glaciers decreased later, ca. 45-40 ka BP, until they abruptly disappeared from the edges of the massif. A new ice advance left well- defined moraines at the edges of the massif’s internal depressions, indicating a tongue disjunction phase with two glacier sub-stages, probably one at the beginning of the cooling ca. 27-25 ka BP, followed by a retreat and another glacial advance ca.

The Iberian wolf in the ever-changing environment i | P a g e Abstract In present day many rural areas across the world suffer from issues such as rural depopulation and land abandonment. Whilst such issues are generally seen as negative, it can have positive effects, such as giving space for the comeback of wild nature. Nonetheless, this can lead to an increase in interactions between humans and wildlife. Sometimes such interactions are called “human-wildlife conflicts” when resulting in negative impacts on involved humans and/or wildlife. Such is also the case with the human-wolf conflict. This is often framed as a conflict that emerges due to depredation of wolves upon livestock, and great efforts are dedicated to resolving the conflict. However, scientific literature points out that human-wolf conflicts continue to endure despite such efforts. Hence, instead of proposing solutions or asking why current solutions are ineffective in resolving the conflict, this thesis proposes a new way of looking at such conflicts by making use of Luhmann’s Social Systems Theory and relating it to the concepts of human-wildlife conflicts and coping strategies.
