  • 1. Urban Growth and Mobility in Latin America
    Parte I Demographic Transformations, Convergences and Inequalities in Latin America: what the future holds? Urban growth and mobility in Latin America1 José Marcos P. da Cunha2 Jorge Rodríguez Vignoli3 Abstract Latin America (LA) is the most urbanized region in developing world. This is not due to a statistical fiction, but to an actual agglomeration of its population in cities, many of them very large (1 million or more inhabitants). This feature has at least two consequences. On one hand, many indicators of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) provide a greater degree of progress in comparison with other regions in developing world. Considering the nature of these goals, concentration in cities facilitates the achievement of the MDG´s. On the other hand, for LA countries, it is in big cities or metropolitan agglomerations where social problems are more complex, and also where we can find the largest concentrations of poverty. Despite some empirical hypotheses of demographic and economic decentralization from large urban agglomerations, these areas still remain the arena of the greatest challenges facing our societies. Accordingly, monitoring MDGs indicators in the region should be segmented by area of residence (rural and urban) and city size. Thus, further analysis taking into account differences within metropolitan agglomerations, must be considered. Historically, migration has had a central role on the demographic growth of LA cities; therefore, an understanding of changes in trends of the spatial distribution of the population must include a detailed analysis of migration. By studying migration processes it is possible to understand, at least in part, the consequences of the intense process of urbanization in LA countries.

  • Climate Change and Cities Edited by Cynthia Rosenzweig , William D
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-316-60333-8 — Climate Change and Cities Edited by Cynthia Rosenzweig , William D. Solecki , Patricia Romero-Lankao , Shagun Mehrotra , Shobhakar Dhakal , Somayya Ali Ibrahim Frontmatter More Information Climate Change and Cities Second Assessment Report of the Urban Climate Change Research Network The Urban Climate Change Research Network’s Second Assessment Report on Climate Change in Cities (ARC3.2) is the second in a series of global, science-based reports to examine climate risk, adaptation, and mitigation efforts in cities. The book explicitly seeks to explore the implications of changing climatic conditions on critical urban physical and social infrastructure sectors and intersectoral concerns. The ARC3.2 Report presents downscaled climate projections and catalogs urban disasters and risks, along with the effects on human health in cities. ARC3.2 gives concrete solutions for cities in regard to mitigation and adaptation; urban planning and urban design; equity and environmental justice; economics, inance, and the private sector; critical urban physical and social sectors such as energy, water, transportation, housing and informal settlements, and solid waste management; and governing carbon and climate in cities. Other key topics include ecosystems and biodiversity, and urban coastal zones. The primary purpose of ARC3.2 is to inform the development and implementation of effective urban climate change policies, leveraging ongoing and planned investments for populations in cities of developing, emerging, and developed countries. This volume – like its predecessor – will be invaluable for a range of audiences involved with climate change and cities: Mayors, city oficials, and policy- makers; urban planners; policy-makers charged with developing climate change mitigation and adaptation programs; and a broad spectrum of researchers and advanced students in the environmental sciences.

    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Reduced competence to arboviruses following the sustainable invasion of Wolbachia into native Aedes aegypti from Southeastern Brazil João Silveira Moledo Gesto1,3,4, Gabriel Sylvestre Ribeiro1,3,4, Marcele Neves Rocha1,3,4, Fernando Braga Stehling Dias2,3, Julia Peixoto3, Fabiano Duarte Carvalho1, Thiago Nunes Pereira1 & Luciano Andrade Moreira1,3* Field release of Wolbachia-infected Aedes aegypti has emerged as a promising solution to manage the transmission of dengue, Zika and chikungunya in endemic areas across the globe. Through an efcient self-dispersing mechanism, and the ability to induce virus-blocking properties, Wolbachia ofers an unmatched potential to gradually modify wild Ae. aegypti populations turning them unsuitable disease vectors. Here we describe a proof-of-concept feld trial carried out in a small community of Niterói, greater Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Following the release of Wolbachia-infected eggs, we report here a successful invasion and long-term establishment of the bacterium across the territory, as denoted by stable high-infection indexes (> 80%). We have also demonstrated that refractoriness to dengue and Zika viruses, either thorough oral-feeding or intra-thoracic saliva challenging assays, was maintained over the adaptation to the natural environment of Southeastern Brazil. These fndings further support Wolbachia’s ability to invade local Ae. aegypti populations and impair disease transmission, and will pave the way for future epidemiological and economic impact assessments. Te mosquito Aedes aegypti (= Stegomyia aegypti) holds a core status among tropical disease vectors, being able to host and transmit a broad variety of viruses, such as those causing dengue, Zika and chikungunya 1,2.

Students en- rolled in this course will focus their study and work on social impact projects in Brazil that will help society in the greater Rio de Janeiro area. Students’ work will be facilitated by Prof. Gia- quinta, as well as a variety of mentors in Brazil, a team of professionals from Emzingo, a social enterprise that specializes in the development and management of programs involving social im- pact projects. • Emzingo and university faculty will select and scope projects for 7-10 NGOs or Social Entrepreneurs in and around Rio de Janeiro Brazil who are in need of assistance. These are real problems and the hope is to develop real solutions. • Students will work in teams to complete a consulting project for selected field partners. • Students will travel abroad with their team members to meet with and present their findings to the field partners. Why Brazil? Brazil is the world's fifth largest country, both by geographical area and by population (more than 300 million people). Brazil has the seventh largest economy in the world by nominal GDP (≈ $2.4 trillion), and the seventh largest economy by purchasing power parity (≈ $16,000 per capita). Brazil’s economy is the largest of Latin America and the second largest in the western hemisphere.

  • Guanabara Bay
    Guanabara Bay - 2B m³ of water. 384km². 55 rivers contribute an average annual flow of 350m³/s (Portuguese: Baía de Guanabara, IPA: [ɡwanaˈbaɾɐ]) is an oceanic bay located in Southeast Brazil in the state of Rio de Janeiro. On its western shore lies the city of Rio de Janeiro and Duque de Caxias, and on its eastern shore the cities of Niterói and São Gonçalo. Four other municipalities surround the bay's shores. Guanabara Bay is the second largest bay in area in Brazil (after the All Saints' Bay), at 412 square kilometres (159 sq mi), with a perimeter of 143 kilometres (89 mi). Guanabara Bay is 31 kilometres (19 mi) long and 28 kilometres (17 mi) wide at its maximum. Its 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) wide mouth is flanked at the eastern tip by the Pico do Papagaio (Parrot's Peak) and the western tip by Pão de Açúcar (Sugar Loaf). There have been three major oil spills in Guanabara Bay. The most recent was in 2000 when a leaking underwater pipeline released 1,300,000 litres (340,000 US gal) of oil into the bay, destroying large swaths of the mangrove ecosystem. Recovery measures are currently being attempted, but more than a decade after the incident, the mangrove areas have not returned to life. Max. length 31 km (19 mi) Max. width 28 km (17 mi) Surface area 412 km2 (159 sq mi) The bay has a mean 1.0 tidal range and exhibits a mixed , mainly semidiurnal period. The area weighted depth is 5.7m and the maximum depth is 58 m.

  • Record Attendance Expected at World Urban Forum
    Monday, March 22nd 2010 | Rio de Janeiro Executive Director launches groundbreaking youth report At the joint opening ceremony of the World Urban Youth Assembly and Gender Equality Action Assembly on Friday, UN-HABITAT’s Executive Director, Mrs. Anna Tibaijuka, launched the State of the Urban Youth Report 2010/2011, the first of its kind to be produced by the agency. In her opening address, the Executive Director said: “I do hope that governments, civil society, private sector and youth can learn from this important work in the recognition of youth as a fundamental in the development of our towns and cities. Young people today are the most important asset we have.” Half of the world’s population is now under 25 years of age and predominantly urban, yet youth exclusion is a major feature of the urban divide, which is the main theme of this week’s World Urban Forum. The report, entitled Leveling the Playing Field, combines the latest academic and policy research with new statistics from UN-HABITAT’s Global The Forum has attracted a record number of registrations Photo © Jonathan Andrews Urban Observatory.
