Atividades educativas sobre armazenamento e descarte correto de medicamentos
A conscientização do público infantil sobre uso racional e práticas adequadas relacionadas a medicamentos incentiva a transformação a partir da educação infantil e impulsiona a multiplicação desse conhecimento nas famílias. Nessa perspectiva, o objetivo deste trabalho é relatar a experiência de ações de conscientização com público infantil visando a orientar e divulgar a forma correta de armazenamento e descarte de medicamentos realizada por um p…
Environmental changes and pre-Columbian human influence in the Amazon region – an introduction

Eco-archaeological regions in the Bolivian Amazon
The discovery of extensive pre-Columbian earthworks in north-eastern Bolivia has been seen as evidence that Amazonia was once densely populated by complex societies. This has led some scholars to believe that culture evolved in Amazonia regardless of environmental constraints. However, this view does not take the diversity of earthworks and geo-ecological regions into account, nor their uneven distribution. This paper offers an initial explanatio…
Self-Interested Altruism and Modern Food Aid
Few issues are as symbolic or as complicated as modern food aid, combining as it does a fundamental humanitarian act with calculated self-interest. These complications, moral as well as strategic, are a central focus of Kristin Ahlberg's Transplanting the Great Society: Lyndon Johnson and Food for Peace, which examines the evolving nature of U.S. food aid throughout Johnson's administration. Ahlberg notes several times that “self-interest and alt…
Temperature reduction and local last glaciation maximum (LLGM)
This study presents results from a glacier-climate model that reconstructed glacio-climatological conditions during the last local glaciation maximum (LLGM) in the Cordillera to the north of Cochabamba (17°15'S, 66°15'W), Bolivia. Results emphasize the temperature-sensitivity of glaciers on the eastern slope of the Cordillera Oriental. Maximum glacier advances appear to have been caused by a massive cooling of about 6.5°C while annual preeipitati…
Expositionsdatierung in den Zentralen Anden
Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit ist es, einen Beitrag zur Rekonstruktion der Gletscher- und Klimageschichte in den Zentralen Anden zu leisten. Dies ist wichtig für ein besseres Verständnis des Klimasystems und für eine Abschätzung der Auswirkungen des jetzigen Klimawandels. Mit Hilfe der innovativen Expositionsdatierung mittels in situ 10Be wurden Moränen in ausgewählten Arbeitsgebieten direkt datiert. Es zeigt sich, dass ein letztes Vergletscherung…

Magnetostratigraphy and magnetic susceptibility of the Las Carreras loess–paleosol sequence in Valle de Tafı́, Tucumán, NW-Argentina
Temporal variability of alpine solifluction
Holocene periods of enhanced solifluction offer new paleoclimatic information. Long-term observations of present solifluction variability and process studies on movement mechanisms, as well as model simulations of the soil heat and water regimes, show the dependence of solifluction on ground freezing. The annual variability of both processes is strongly controlled by weather and resulting snow conditions immediately before and at the beginning of…
A late-Holocene (<2600 BP) glacial advance in the south-central Andes (29°S), northern Chile
Radiocarbon dates and relative ages of soils on moraines provide evidence of a substantial late-Holocene (<2600 BP) readvance of glaciers in the western part of the arid Andes at 29°S. The glacier in the Encierro valley, northern Chile, reached about 60% of its late-Pleistocene extent. The equilibrium line altitude ELA during this advance remained between 4250 and 4500 m which is above the modern 0°C isotherm of the free atmosphere during summer.…
