Abstract:
Despite its vicinity to Querétaro City, the La Cañada locality is a moderately preserved zone with deciduous tropical forest and xeric scrub. In this floristic study, nine infraspecific taxa, 264 species, 199 genera and 76 families were recorded. Among these, Asteraceae and Cactaceae comprised the largest numbers of species. At La Cañada a high percentage of the native flora is preserved, and the majority of biological forms recorded for vascular plants. Seventeen percent of the species are endemic to Mexico and Mammillaria mathildae is endemic to the Valley of Querétaro. Five species are included in the Mexican Official Norm of Endangered Species. Two species from the El Bajío region are threatened and two species, previously collected from the locality, probably represent examples of recent extinctions from Querétaro. La Cañada is the locality with the highest recorded richness and diversity within the Valley of Querétaro, supporting 11.3% of the species of the state flora. Our results indicate that La Cañada is an important area that requires sound management for its conservation.

Abstract:
Our aim is to determine continuities and changes in the cañada of Yosotiche environment since the introduction by Spanish conquerors and settlers of new crops, especially sugarcane. A study of the biolog ical modifications of a particular ecosystem allows inferences on changes and continuities in socio-political relations. This particular case study contributes to a discussion of the general model of Mixtec political territoriality. The methodology applied here involves a convergence that integ rates the analysis of historical documents, archaeological data, fieldwork and anthropological information, along with discoveries made by earlier research. It offers insight into occupational dynamics and their ties to the political, administrative, economic and social structures within the cañada dur ing colonial times. The introduction of foreign crops produced changes in the ecolog ical complementarity system practiced by the villages that possessed lands in the cañada, consequently modifying the labour relations of the inhabitants. An analysis of this situation reveals the singular status of the lands owned by Tlaxiaco, which seemingly fit the regulations dictated by the Laws of the Indies but, in essence, meant the continuity of pre-Hispanic traditions.

Abstract:
The chilhuacle chili (Capsicum annuumL.) is a Mexican native variety whose production has been highly valuable because it is the main ingredient of the Oaxacan black mole, a typical Mexican dish. It is basically grown in the Cañada Region of the State of Oaxaca, Mexico, within the Tehuacán-Cuicatlán Biosphere Reserve. Importantly, it is cultivated under traditional agricultural systems, where a range of agronomic constraints associated with the production process and the incidence and severity of pests and diseases represent significant impediments that hinder the yield potential. Additionally, the genetic basis of the crop is highly restricted. Under such environmental and production conditions, the mean crop yield of chilhuacle chili can reach 1 t ha−1of dehydrated fruits, which can be used in the food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries. In this review we summarize the current progress on chilhuacle chili cultivation and outline some crucial guidelines to improve production, as well as other research topics that need to be further addressed.

Abstract:
Recently obtained radiocarbon determinations from the Cañada de Cuicatlán, Oaxaca, Mexico, have made it possible to revise the chronological placement of the Perdido phase (from 600-200 B. C. to 750-300 B. C.) and the Lomas phase (from 200 B. C.-A. D. 200 to 300 B. C.-A. D. 200), the latter being the phase for which substantial evidence of a Zapotec conquest of the Cañada has been recovered. The revised chronology brings the Lomas phase into close alignment with the Late Monte Albán I (300-100 B. C.) and the Monte Albán II (100 B. C.-A. D. 200) phases, during which the early Zapotec state emerged with its capital at Monte Albán in the Oaxaca Valley. The new Cañada dates support the proposition that territorial expansion outside the Oaxaca Valley played a major role very early in the process of Zapotec primary state formation. This strategy of extra-Valley expansion appears to have been initiated before all areas within the Oaxaca Valley were fully integrated into the Zapotec state.

Full text
Abstract:
Plant mating system determines, to a great extent, the demographic and genetic properties of populations, hence their potential for adaptive evolution. Variation in plant mating system has been documented between phylogenetically related species as well between populations of a species. A common evolutionary transition, from outcrossing to selfing, is likely to occur under environmental spatial variation in the service of pollinators. Here, we studied two phenotypically (in floral traits) and genetically (in neutral molecular markers) differentiated populations of the annual, insect-pollinated, plant Datura inoxia in Mexico, that differ in the service of pollinators (Mapimí and Cañada Moreno). First, we determined the populations’ parameters of phenotypic in herkogamy, outcrossing and selfing rates with microsatellite loci, and assessed between generation (adults and seedlings) inbreeding, and inbreeding depression. Second, we compared the relationships between parameters in each population. Results point strong differences between populations: plants in Mapimí have, on average, approach herkogamy, higher outcrossing rate (tm = 0.68), lower primary selfing rate (r = 0.35), and lower inbreeding at equilibrium (Fe = 0.24) and higher inbreeding depression (δ = 0.25), than the populations of Cañada. Outcrossing seems to be favored in Mapimí while selfing in Cañada. The relationship between r and Fe were negatively associated with herkogamy in Mapimí; here, progenies derived from plants with no herkogamy or reverse herkogamy had higher selfing rate and inbreeding coefficient than plants with approach herkogamy. The difference Fe–F is positively related to primary selfing rate (r) only in Cañada Moreno which suggests inbreeding depression in selfing individuals and then genetic purging. In conclusion, mating system evolution may occur differentially among maternal lineages within populations of Datura inoxia, in which approach herkogamy favors higher outcrossing rates and low levels of inbreeding and inbreeding depression, while no herkogamy or reverse herkogamy lead to the evolution of the “selfing syndrome” following the purge of deleterious alleles despite high inbreeding among individuals.

<p>Durante los largos años de la guerra civil guatemalteca, guerrilleros del vecino país centroamericano utilizaron el estado de Chiapas como plataforma operativa. En particular desde principios de los años ochentas, tras haber sido derrotados por el ejército gubernamental en el centro del país, la frontera chiapaneca se convirtió en su retaguardia estratégica. Ello hubiera sido imposible sin la complicidad o tolerancia del gobierno mexicano. Durante ese mismo periodo los guerrilleros mexicanos que fundaron el EZLN desarrollaron un trabajo clandestino de penetración y organización en zonas aledañas a la frontera con Guatemala. En este trabajo se examinan estas circunstancias y se plantea la hipótesis de que la prolongada presencia de refugiados y combatientes guatemaltecos contribuyó a generar condiciones favorables para la formación de bases de apoyo del EZLN en dicha zona.</p>

Abstract:
The frequency of disturbances is an important factor contributing to the megabiodiversity of Mexico, and fire is a prominent disturbance in this region. Here I briefly summarise important aspects of fire ecology in Mexico and introduce a new book for fire science in this country: Incendios de la vegetación (Vegetation fires) by D. Rodríguez-Trejo. The book covers many fire topics including fire ecology, fire behaviour, fire management, fire history and the anthropology of fire, and provides a basis for sustainable vegetation management in the region; it also advocates for the use of fire as a management tool. The message is that the biodiversity of Mexico, and therefore its management, cannot be understood without considering fire.

Abstract:
From a current population near 19 million, the Mexico City metropolis may exceed 27 million by the year 2000. The many problems associated with this massive level of urban concentration include severe levels of air pollution, paralyzing congestion, and increasing costs of urban services provision. Meanwhile, the nation's periphery continues to suffer from severe economic and social underdevelopment relative to the nation's capital. Regional policies and plans to address these problems have been dominated by the concept of decentralizing the nation's urban-industrial system: i.e., dispersing urban and industrial growth from the metropolitan core to the national periphery. Mexican regional policy makers and planners have failed to adequately evaluate these proposed policies and plans for decentralization in a critical and rigorous manner. This evaluation must be made in terms of three critical criteria. The first is effectiveness: will a proposed plan genuinely return the benefits which are expected or hoped for? The second is efficiency: among several possible planning alternatives, which will return the greatest social benefits for the smallest social costs? The third is equity: which regional interest groups will be affected, and how will the costs and benefits be distributed among these groups? Research is based on three principal data sources: Mexico's National Development Plan: 1983-1988, which has predominantly determined the nation's sectoral, social, and regional policies during the de la Madrid administration; a plan prepared for the quasi-governmental Commission for the Conurbation of the Nation's Center, for urban-industrial deconcentration from Mexico City into the nation's Central Region; and extensive fieldwork in Mexico City and several other Mexican urban centers, concerned with the actual practice of regional economic development in Mexico today. Based on this research, a regionally disaggregated cost-benefit framework is proposed for policy and planning evaluation, and particularly to facilitate conflict resolution, negotiation, and other forms of adjustment among the many powerful interest groups which compete for scarce regional development resources.

Full text
Abstract:
Santa Eulalia contains two separate, contrasting Pb-Zn-Ag deposits. The East Camp consists of a symmetrically zoned calc-silicate skarn with distal sulfide and tin-bearing orebodies; whereas the west Camp is composed of massive sulfide orebodies with minor proximal calc-silicate skarn and isolated intermediate calcic-iron skarns. Mineralization and alteration are zoned within each camp but do not overlap. Sulfide mineralization in both camps consists of pyrrhotite, sphalerite, galena, and pyrite with lesser amounts of arsenopyrite and chalcopyrite. The East Camp is apparently richer in zinc and copper than the West camp. Mineralization is temporally and spatially related to geochemically identical felsite intrusions which apparently have a common source. Mineralizing fluids followed these felsites through a thick section of evaporites and organic-rich shaly limestones into clean, homogeneous, relatively undeformed, limestone hosts. West Camp mineralization occurs along an interconnected network of vertically discontinuous tight fissures and sill contacts, whereas East Camp mineralization is located along vertically throughgoing faults and dike contacts. strata-bound, but not stratiform, mantos extend off discordant chimneys in both camps. Ore textures reveal that mineralization occurred primarily by limestone replacement. 21 Pressure-corrected primary fluid inclusion homogenization temperatures in fluorite range from 220 to 490 deg. C. Salinities are bimodal with high-salinity (>26.3 equivalent wt% NaCl) and low-salinity (1-12 equivalent wt% NaCl) populations. Mineralogical constraints indicate that the hydrothermal fluids were acid and reduced. Sulfur isotope analyses indicate that the ore fluids varied from -17 to +4 permil without correlation to iron-sulfide species, temperature, or salinity. Co-existing sulfides are commonly in isotopic disequilibrium. Sulfur isotopes from the West Camp are crudely zoned, but no consistent patterns exist in the East Camp. Oxygen and carbon isotope analyses of limestone wallrocks reveal a distinct isotopic alteration halo. A single analysis of gangue calcite from each camp indicates that the ore fluids contained non-carbonate-derived carbon and oxygen, possibly of magmatic origin. Metals were apparently transported as chloride complexes and deposited through coupled dissolution-precipitation replacement reactions. Most ore sulfur apparently came from diagenetic pyrite and sedimentary anhydrite, but some of the sulfur may have had a magmatic source. The metals probably came from the felsite parent magma and this magma may have also contributed fluids. Close similarities between Santa Eulalia and numerous other intrusion-related carbonate-hosted deposits in northern Mexico reinforce these interpretations.

Abstract:
Most of dengue transmission occurs in tropical and subtropical zones. As a result, studies on the dynamics of dengue transmission are principally focused in these areas. Less is known about the dynamics of dengue transmission and the interplay of social and climatic determinants in arid regions located at the fringe of transmission zones. This dissertation uses surveillance data from the state of Sonora, an arid region in northern Mexico, to examine three specific aims: 1) to assess relationships among social and climatic factors utilizing locality-level dengue incidence data across the state of Sonora, 2) to determine the correlation between the spatial pattern of dengue cases during an outbreak in Hermosillo, a large urban area, and neighborhood-level socio-economic and water supply factors using a novel case-control study design, and 3) to determine how dengue cases disseminated across two arid cities, Hermosillo and Navojoa, and to determine if changing socio-demographic patterns were similar between cities. Results from the first ecological study indicated that the distribution of dengue across the state was associated most strongly with the climatic gradient and, secondarily, by population size and lack of education. Underreporting in rural areas with lower access to transportation infrastructure was also detected. We demonstrated that a spatially-based case-control study design was useful in identifying associations between dengue transmission and neighborhood-level characteristics related to population density, lack of access to healthcare and water supply restrictions. Finally, the spatio-temporal study identified common patterns between the two cities/outbreaks. Dengue transmission arose and was maintained for 2-3 months in specific foci areas characterized by low access to healthcare and then the disease moved to contiguous areas. Recommendations for surveillance and control programs based on these results include: 1) in small localities at risk of transmission a combination of active and passive surveillance should be carried out for a period of time to determine if transmission is occurring, 2) monitoring water storage practices during water restrictions and ensuring appropriate messaging about covering storage containers should be made, and 3) spatial monitoring of dengue cases and agency reaction to initial disease occurrence could reduce spread to adjacent areas.

Full text
Abstract:
A geologic-kinematic model for the evolution of the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean region is built within a framework provided by a detailed Late Paleozoic (Alleghenian) plate reconstruction and a revised North American (NOAM) and South American (SOAM) relative motion history. From the Middle Jurassic to the Campanian, SOAM migrated east-southeast from NOAM. From the Carapanian to the Eocene. Little or no NOAM-SOAM relative motion occurred, although minor sinistral transpression is suggested. Since the Eocene, minor west-northwest convergence between NOAM and SOAM has occurred along pre-existing fracture zones. Three stages of evolution are recognized which correlate with these phases of relative motion. Stage 1: mainly carbonate shelves fringed the Gulf of Mexico and "Proto-Caribbean" passive rifted margins, during plate separation. Stage 2: the Caribbean Plate (CARIB) progressively entered the NOAM-SOAM gap from the Pacific by subduction of Proto-Caribbean crust beneath the Greater Antilles, Stage 3: CARIB migrated east by 1200 km, subducting Proto-Caribbean crust and forming the Lesser Antilles Arc, Transform faults have dissected the original Greater Antilles Arc, and nappes in the Venezuelan Andes have been emplaced southeastwards onto the northern SOAM margin, diachronously from west to east. Field work done in Dominican Republic, both near Puerto Plata and in the southwest sector, indicates that 1) Cuba and northern and central Hispaniola are parts of one original Greater Antilles arc, 2) this arc collided with the Bahamas in the Late Paleocene=Mid Eocene, and 3) Hispaniola has been assembled by strike-slip juxtaposition of terranes from the west.

Full text
Abstract:

Women involved with the criminal justice system face higher rates of unintended pregnancy than the general population, yet less than one-third use a consistent method of contraception. One study found that among women leaving detention, 43% had conceived within one year of release. Pregnancies that do occur are often high risk and result in poor outcomes for both mother and child. Lack of focus on family planning needs post-incarceration are due to competing factors women face related to daily survival and the added demands of meeting the requirements of probation.

This study examined the influences of pregnancy attitude, reproductive autonomy, personal factors and prior related behaviors on the use of effective birth control among women on probation living in southern New Mexico including the U.S.- Mexico border region. Using a quantitative correlational design framed by Pender's Health Promotion Model, 52 women were surveyed at five different Adult Probation and Parole Offices in two U.S.-Mexico border counties and two additional counties in southern New Mexico. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics and logistic regression (single, multivariate, and hierarchical) to answer the following questions about women on probation: Do personal characteristics (contraceptive self-efficacy, birth control method prior to incarceration, age, ethnicity, and parity) significantly predict current birth control method? Which combination of personal characteristics (ethnicity, contraceptive self-efficacy, age, and parity) best predicts higher negative pregnancy attitudes and higher reproductive autonomy? Do pregnancy attitude and reproductive autonomy significantly predict current birth control method.

Results indicated a significant relationship between increased levels of reproductive autonomy (an interpersonal influence) and effective use of birth control among women on probation. While statistical significance was attained for two additional variables, contraceptive self-efficacy and prior birth control use, the results were not decisive due to widened confidence intervals. Use of a hierarchical logistic regression was effective for entering predictor variables into the regression based upon Pender's theoretical framework as a guide. Implications for nursing research, education, and practice were discussed. Future studies using larger sample sizes and additional settings would increase validity and generalizability.

Full text
Abstract:
Remittances form an important source of revenue for many farm households and rural communities. In spite of their significance, how remittances are expended is not well studied. Neoclassical economic theory indicates that the welfare of recipients unequivocally improves as the household budget line increases. Which new combination of goods, such as production and leisure, is selected on the budget line depends on household and community preferences. The literature suggests many factors influence preferences. The original resource endowment defines production possibilities. Regional economic conditions determine agricultural profitability and alternative investment opportunities. The volume and timing of remittances influence a farmer's willingness to accept risk. Socio-economic survey data from 54 households in the village of El Rosario Micaltepec, Puebla in the Mixteca Baja region illustrate the conditions under which certain households may choose to invest remittances in agricultural production. Data on the activities of the migrant village associations of two villages are used to evaluate the circumstances that favor community investment of migrant-donated funds over their conspicuous consumption.

Abstract:
This project investigates experiences of type 2 diabetes among Mexican immigrants living in Tucson, with a specific focus on conceptualizations of risk, heritability, individual responsibility, and experiences of emotion. It combines questions about the negative impacts of structural factors on the health of immigrants in the U.S. with questions about conceptualizations of risk. Participants viewed individual responsibility as an important ethical value in terms of managing risk. Because of the hereditary nature of diabetes, discourse on responsibility could be interpreted as an at-risk illness narrative. An emphasis on individual responsibility in diabetes management led to negative emotions both for the person with diabetes and their family members, as well as feelings of blame on the part of family members. Negative emotions cause conflict within families, and in the instance of depression or feelings of resignation, impede self-care.

Abstract:
Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Materials Science and Engineering, 2008.
This electronic version was submitted by the student author. The certified thesis is available in the Institute Archives and Special Collections.

Previous experimental research into ancient pottery production has proven that potters can produce vessels with varying materials properties, such as thermal shock resistance and permeability. These properties are differentially useful for certain tasks, such as cooking or water-cooling. In certain cases, such as the use of shell temper in North America, an improvement in thermal shock resistance seems to provide an explanation for why the new temper was adopted along with the introduction of a new food type -- maize. It remains an unanswered question, however, whether potters in a large variety of situations were choosing to alter their production techniques or materials to produce pots intended for different functions that exhibit different materials properties. I investigated this question by applying techniques and concepts from materials science, anthropology, and archaeology. This combination of materials science and social science was pioneered by Heather Lechtman and Dorothy Hosler, and is called the "materials approach." My research focuses specifically on pottery production in the Middle Balsas Region of Guerrero, Mexico, from approximately 300 BC to AD 1300. I investigated whether potters in the Middle Balsas were using different production techniques or raw materials for vessels that were intended for specific functions. I chose the Middle Balsas Region as the geographical focus for my research because little systematic archaeological investigation has focused on that area, especially in the Late Preclassic and Classic periods (300 BC-AD 900). In order to gather appropriate data, I mapped, surface collected, and excavated at three Middle Balsas sites. I then categorized the pottery and analyzed a selected portion via thin section analysis/petrography.
(cont.) The combination of field work and laboratory analyses that I used provided me with data on the production techniques practiced by Middle Balsas potters and allowed me to identify what wares and vessel shapes were characteristic of various time periods. I determined that Middle Balsas potters produced a consistent set of wares and vessel shapes made from a variety of clay sources, and that the clays I identified in their vessels always contained a consistent volume fraction of non-plastic inclusions. The majority of the clays used in these vessels naturally contain the high levels of non-plastic inclusions identified. When the clays did not contain this volume fraction of inclusions, the potters added a sand temper to the clays to reach their "ideal" volume fraction. The consistency that I identified in the production of Middle Balsas pottery lasted over one thousand years, which is unusual in Mesoamerica. I suggest that this production pattern may have occurred because a small number of potters who used a specific, shared technique made the vessels for the entire community.
