Abstract:
A morphological study of adult liver flukes and eggs from sheep in a human fascioliasis endemic zone in the Northern Bolivian Altiplano showed that they belong to the species Fasciola hepatica. An exhaustive morphometric comparison with a F. hepatica population from Spanish sheep was made using image analysis and an allometric model: (y2m - y2)]#x002F;y2 = c[(y1m - y1)/y1]b, where y1 = body surface or body length, y2 = one of the measurements analysed, y1m, y2m = maximum values towards which y1 and y2 respectively tend, and c, b = constants. Only slight allometric differences in worms were observed despite the geographic distance between both Spanish and Bolivian sheep populations and the very high altitude of the Bolivian Altiplano.

Abstract:
SUMMARYFasciolosis, caused by trematodes of the genusFasciola, is an emerging disease of humans. One of the highest levels of human fasciolosis hepatica is found amongst the indigenous Aymaran people of the Northern Bolivian Altiplano. A meta-analysis of epidemiological surveys from 38 communities in the region demonstrates that fasciolosis has been endemic in the region since at least 1984 and is a zoonosis of rural communities. Human and bovine fasciolosis is associated with the communities lying in the plain from Lake Titicaca to La Paz, predominantly in the Los Andes province. In Los Andes incidences of up to 67% of population cohorts were found, and prevalence is age-related with the highest infection rate in children aged 8–11 years.

Abstract:
AbstractThis paper presents a high-resolution ice-core pollen record from the Sajama Ice Cap, Bolivia, that spans the last 400 yr. The pollen record corroborates the oxygen isotopic and ice accumulation records from the Quelccaya Ice Cap and supports the scenario that the Little Ice Age (LIA) consisted of two distinct phases�"a wet period from AD 1500 to 1700, and a dry period from AD 1700 to 1880. During the dry period xerophytic shrubs expanded to replace puna grasses on the Altiplano, as suggested by a dramatic drop in the Poaceae/Asteraceae (P/A) pollen ratio. The environment around Sajama was probably similar to the desert-like shrublands of the Southern Bolivian Highlands and western Andean slopes today. The striking similarity between the Sajama and Quelccaya proxy records suggests that climatic changes during the Little Ice Age occurred synchronously across the Altiplano.

Abstract:
Precise chronologies of climate events in the tropics are rare yet essential for understanding how tropical climate relates to global climate at millennial to longer time scales. An increasingly important area for understanding these interactions is the southern Bolivian Altiplano (15-22oS) which represents the waning and southeastern end of the South American Monsoon, a system that is, today, modulated by regional upper-air circulation anomalies under the influence of tropical Pacific sea-surface temperature gradients associated with El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO). Mechanisms of summer rainfall variations on millennial and longer time scales are less well understood, despite well-established evidence for profound changes in hydrologic budgets on the southern Bolivian Altiplano. Large shifts in effective moisture on the southern Bolivian Altiplano produced deep lakes in the Poopo, Coipasa, and Uyuni basins, basins that are currently occupied by salt pans or very shallow lakes. We mapped shoreline stratigraphy and sampled carbonates for over 170 uranium-thorium (U-Th) and radiocarbon (14C) dates to refine paleolake history of the Southern Bolivian Altiplano. As part of this dissertation work, I helped assemble a U-Th dating facility at the University of Arizona and obtained over 90 uranium-thorium (U-Th) dates from paleolake carbonates. Carbonate textures were evaluated for potential diagenetic effects, but the principal consideration in dating such carbonates is the isotopic composition and quantity of initial Th incorporated into the carbonate. We establish criteria for statigraphically meaningful dates and strategies for successful U-Th dating of paleolake carbonates. The stable isotope, 87-strontium/86-strontium (87Sr/86Sr), and 234U/238U ratios of modern surface waters and of paleolake carbonates can be used as tracers of the region's various lake cycles and provides a test hydrologic models of these lake cycles.Volcanic tuffs provide important stratigraphic markers for paleolimnologic, geomorphic, and archeological studies. Despite the widespread occurrence of late Quaternary tuffs on the Bolivian Altiplano, few of these deposits have been previously recognized either from natural exposures or in paleolake sediment cores. We document the presence of 38 distal tuffs in Quaternary lacustrine and alluvial deposits, and determine the composition of glass and phenocrysts by electron microprobe analyses.

Full text
Abstract:
The Bolivian Altiplano is part of the inner arc Polymetallic Belt of the Andes, and is a Cretaceous-Cenozoic intermontane basin located between the Andean arc of the Western Cordillera and the Paleozoic fold belt of the Eastern Cordillera. Reconnaissance geological mapping shows that epithermal mineralisation in the NE Altiplano is related to silicic magmatism located on NW-trending Altiplano growth faults and intersections with NE and E-W lineaments. Magmatism was episodic and occurred during the Miocene arc broadening episode, which correlates with increased plate convergence rates. Most magmatism is mid Miocene (19-10 Ma), and formed flow-dome-sill-stock complexes. The upper (9-7.5 Ma) and late (6.5-4 Ma) Miocene episodes, in contrast, generally formed ash-flow calderas and strato-volcanoes. The three episodes are mainly dacites and rhyolites of the high-K calc-alkaline suite, with some shoshonites, and can only be distinguished isotopically, with progressively stronger crustal contamination in the younger episodes. Sr-Nd-O isotopes and trace elements show that the magmas evolved by variable fractionation and assimilation from subduction-related, mantle-derived magmas which were isotopically enriched by bulk contamination with Precambrian gneisses. Mapping, petrography and XRD show that the epithermal deposits have large areas of pervasive phyllic alteration with a propylitic halo. Tourmaline alteration occurs in the cores of Sn-bearing deposits. Argillic and silicic alteration in some deposits are subsurface features of hot spring systems. Mineralisation (Au-Ag-Cu-Pb-Zn) is disseminated and in sheeted veins and veinlets which have a NE-trend, related to the regional tectonic stress. Dating and O-H isotopes show that the mineralisation is genetically related to the dacitic magmatism and formed from a dominantly magmatic fluid, with meteoric mixing in the upper levels. Differences between the Polymetallic Belt and the Copper Belt are mainly a function of erosion level. Polymetallic deposits of the Eastern Cordillera contain important Sn and form the main part of the Tin Belt. Minor Sn also occurs in Altiplano deposits hosted by Paleozoic marine sediments, but not in those in Tertiary red beds. Tin was probably derived from the Paleozoic sediments, and is not related to deep subduction.

Abstract:

Households in the Bolivian Altiplano construct their livelihood strategies in a system marked by changing climate and volatile social systems. The strategies that they choose must work to decrease the household‘s vulnerability to shocks, such as drought and frost, and increase its ability to adapt to longer term changes, for instance the affects of globalization. Their strategies may also influence the resilience of their community and environment, either increasing or decreasing the likelihood of catastrophe.

This research uses canonical correlation analysis to analyze survey data collected from 330 rural households in two regions of the Bolivian Altiplano. It examines the impact that dominant livelihood strategies have on the resilience of the household and its socio-ecological environment. The analysis shows that access to land and lifecycle are two household characteristics most highly associated with resilience; that diversification into labor markets often works towards increasing resilience; and that many households use livestock as an insurance mechanism. The results suggest that policies that work towards increasing crop yields and reducing livestock loss in the face of climate change could effectively target the households that are most vulnerable. Programs that include transfer payments to older households for providing services, such as increasing ecosystem resilience by placing land in fallow, could reduce the negative impact of lifecycle experienced by many across both regions.

Abstract:
This thesis focuses on individual and collective definitions of ‘the good life’ in the Bolivian plateau. Drawing on ethnographic research conducted in the urban area of El Alto, the thesis explores potential contradictions between different orientations and models of well-being. The increasing interest amongst a group of Aymara intellectuals (GTZ) in an indigenous perspective on this topic provides the point of departure for an exploration of the complexity of ideas relating to this issue and an account of different definitions of ‘the good life’ among Aymara people. The thesis makes a contribution to debates regarding poverty and well-being and the problems attached to universal definitions, which tend to be based on simplified and economic criteria. By considering what different people value and prioritise in terms of their own well-being and, where applicable, their children’s well-being and happiness, the thesis offers a contribution to Andean anthropology and to the understanding of ‘poverty’. This entails an exploration of the moments of tension and synergy that exist between Aymara and Bolivian identity. It offers a detailed analysis of different collective and individual actions adopted for the achievement of well-being. In particular, these include social protests, moments of religious celebration, household cooperation, and the resort to supernatural forces and ‘making of luck (suerte)’ with a specific focus on gender and generational differences.

Abstract:
This study explores the impacts of physical and policy variables on the economics of the development of a hypothetical 500 t/d underground polymetallic (Zn-Ag-Pb) vein deposit in the Sud Lipez region of the Bolivian Altiplano. Because of recent changes in the legal system, it is more attractive, interesting and worthwhile to examine the effects of policy variables that reflect the implications of the new legal system. For this purpose, an holistic investment methodology defined as the Investment-Worth model is developed to evaluate the risks and rewards to capital investments. Results of the study confirm that even in risky environments development of mining activities remain primarily driven by the quality of the ore reserves and the market conditions for the commodities of interest. Under the most probable scenario, the deposit of interest would remain a viable investment opportunity at zinc ore grades greater than 9%. Furthermore, the model demonstrates that the investment worth of a project is not the same across firms in the industry. Attractiveness of a project varies with economic and risk-related characteristics of firms. Specifically, investment in the zinc-based polymetallic deposit in the Altiplano will be more attractive to firms of at least moderate size that possess the required technical knowledge and skills but are not currently involved in zinc production.

Full text
Abstract:
This study investigates the connections between indigenous people's migration and agrobiodiversity conservation in the Altiplano Norte of Bolivia. The Altiplano Norte is located in one of the centres of origin and biodiversity in the world, where smallholder farmers maintain in their plots a wide range of agricultural varieties and relevant knowledge. Around Lake Titicaca significant effort has been devoted, in recent decades, to the prevention of genetic erosion. However, the phenomenon of farmers' rural-urban migration, although predominant in the Altiplano Norte, has been accounted for only marginally with regard to on-farm agrobiodiversity conservation both within the initiatives coordinated and implemented by national and international stakeholders, and in the academic literature. In order to produce useful knowledge for a better understanding of farmers' relationship with agrobiodiversity today, this research explores the broader context in which indigenous smallholders operate, according to traditional practices, as well as to new stimuli and priorities. The space in which they live and the identities and aspirations that influence their choices and behaviours are characterised by an increased proximity, at both a physical and an ideal level, between the rural and the urban dimensions. Two trends are identified and analysed in this work: 1) agronomic simplification, observable in the Altiplano Norte as well as in other developing countries' regions, as part of a process of deagrarianisation; 2) agrobiodiversity reinvention, taking shape in a period in which the indigenous roots of Bolivia, native crops and traditional dishes experience a revival in discourse and food practices. Temporary and return migrants are important characters in this process, as innovators and crucial allies for scientists promoting agrobiodiversity conservation.

Full text
Abstract:
The Late Devonian and Mississippian record the transition from Greenhouse into a cooler global climate punctuated by glaciations. Evidence for glaciation in the latest Devonian is primarily derived from diamictites deposits in South America. The event was broadly coincident with eustatic changes and mass extinction associated with the Hangenberg Crisis. To understand the record of glaciation in more detail a stratigraphic, palynostratigraphic and chemostratigraphic field-study has been undertaken near Lake Titicaca, Bolivia. Three primary sections were measured; Chaguaya, Villa Molino and CR5. These record a 1.1 km thick Devonian-Carboniferous (D/C) boundary interval. Glacigenic strata are represented by the Cumaná Formation, dated to within the lepidophyta-nitidus (LN) miospore zone. Additional sections were measured along a strike-parallel topographic ridgeline, which revealed that the Cumaná Formation consists of a single, preserved advance of glacigenic strata into a marine shelfal environment. It is associated with incised palaeo-relief, which is >7 km in length and 110 m deep. The D/C boundary in the study area is defined on the loss of Retispora lepidophyta and a collapse in marine phytoplankton diversity during initial post-glacial transgression. Hence, palynological extinctions represent a proxy for the D/C boundary in South America that is tied to wider palaeoclimatic and glacioeustatic changes. A 2 ‰ positive carbon isotope excursion is associated with palynological extinctions at the D/C boundary. Palynofacies were unable to quantify the marine vs. terrestrial ratio of preserved organic matter as amorphous organic matter was preferentially lost during standard palynological processing techniques. However the excursion is likely related to a reduction in the supply of terrestrial and marine organic matter at a time of environmental stress. These combined results provide a high-palaeolatitude glacial perspective on debates regarding mass-extinction, eustatic and environmental change around the D/C boundary. The glacigenic Cumaná Formation is interpreted to represent the glacioeustatic control sea-level falls observed globally at the D/C boundary.

Godfrey, Wood Rachel. "An ethnographic study of the relationship between the Renta Dignidad and wellbeing in the Bolivian Altiplano." Thesis, University of Sussex, 2016. http://sro.sussex.ac.uk/id/eprint/65088/.

Full text
Abstract:
The objective of this thesis is to study the impacts of Bolivia's non-contributory pension, the Renta Dignidad, on the wellbeing of older peasants and their families. Literature on social protection has had a tendency to propose social protection policies as contributing to a broad range of objectives, and non-contributory pensions are no exception. Studies have found them to contribute not only to ‘obvious' needs such as increased consumption and income security but also to investments in productivity, social relationships, health, increased access to credit and savings, while it has become common to claim that they contribute to intangible goals such as dignity and citizenship. Moreover, because they do not impose conditionalities on recipients and are often relatively broader in their coverage than other social protection policies, social pensions have generally avoided critiques that have been aimed at conditional cash transfers and public works programmes. The danger of this literature is that it assumes that wellbeing is heavily responsive to monetary wealth, rather than other areas. To study this, an ethnographic methodology, based on participant observation and semi-structured interviews was employed in two rural communities located in the La Paz department in the highland Altiplano region of Bolivia close to Lake Titicaca. My analysis shows that older persons' wellbeing depends heavily on a combination of elements, going beyond material wellbeing into areas such as their relationships with their spouses, children, grandchildren, and the other people in the rural communities in which they live, their ability to contribute their labour and maintain their daily (agricultural) work, to participate in collective social political and religious activities, and to maintain good health. For example, older people work hard for as late in life as possible largely because it is meaningful for them to work the land and produce food. This means that health problems, which are often exacerbated by hard work, are particularly damaging to wellbeing because they inhibit older persons' ability to do this. Meanwhile, ideas and values about how older people should live are continually being negotiated and contested between older people and with their younger family members, often leading to disputes. These are not driven solely by material interests, but concern the ways in which people should live and seek cultural, social and spiritual fulfilment. This is not due to a particular conception of wellbeing held by these people because they are indigenous, as might be inferred through the romantic lens of the vivir bien concept, but because human wellbeing more generally needs to be understood in relational terms, rather than exclusively in terms of peoples' capacity to satisfy their basic needs. While the Renta Dignidad increases older persons' ability to consume, maintain livelihood security, and in some case to participate in exchanges of food and gifts with other family members, it does not respond significantly to these other areas of wellbeing, contributing little to healthcare for example. The policy implications of this are that a more integral approach needs to be adopted to older persons' wellbeing, going beyond cash transfers to greater efforts to bring healthcare services to older people in remote rural areas.

Traditional fallow periods in the Bolivian highlands are being shortened in an effort to increase short-term crop yields, with potential long-term impacts on soil communities. Using 454-pyrosequencing, we characterized fungal and bacterial community responses to (1) the length of fallow period and (2) the presence of the plants Parasthrephia sp. or Baccharis sp. (both locally known as ‘thola’). Thola is widely considered by farmers as beneficial to soil health, although it is also frequently harvested as a source of fuel by farmers. Soils in one study area, Ancoraimes, had higher levels of organic matter, nitrogen and other macronutrients compared to the other study area, Umala. In our analyses, Ancoraimes soils supported more diverse fungal communities, whereas Umala had more diverse bacterial communities. Unexpectedly, the longer fallow periods were associated with lower fungal diversity in Umala and lower bacterial diversity in Ancoraimes. Fungi assigned to genera Verticillium, Didymella, and Alternaria, and bacteria assigned to genera Paenibacillus, Segetibacter, and Bacillariophyta decreased in abundance with longer fallow period. The presence of thola did not significantly affect overall soil fungal or bacterial diversity, but did increase the frequency of some genera such as Fusarium and Bradyrhizobium. Our results suggest that fallow period has a range of effects on microbial communities, and that the removal of thola from the fields impacts the dynamics of the soil microbial communities.

Abstract:
The existence of a situational concept indissolubly spatial and temporal in the Bolivian altiplano, better defined by the aymara term pacha, in the south-central Andes is well sustained by ethno-historic and ethnographic accounts. However, the implications of this concept for archaeological research have not been considered enough. Is especially suggestive that, the past being necessarily a place, humans may have conceived various ways to physically interact with their pasts through ceremonialism. This chapter considers the implication of this idea within a framework of archaeology of time, applying a fractal model of the pacha concept in its various nested scales. In order to illustrate the material forms that the idea of relating with the entities of a “place of the past” can adopt, this chapter discusses three case-studies along a historic sequence. The chapter finishes with some thoughts about the specific material conducts that can be adopted, even within the same ontological framework.
