From thermal stress to health risk
Overcoming Barriers and Solutions for Catalysing Private Capital in Climate Adaptation
This study investigates stakeholder perspectives on mobilising private‐sector finance for climate adaptation in Southeast Asia, emphasising Hong Kong's role as a financial intermediary. Through semi‐structured interviews with diverse stakeholders, including practitioners, policymakers, insurers, and project developers, we employed a grounded theory approach to identify key themes. The findings reveal significant opportunities for private capital …
Integrated policy and AI-assisted technologies to address extreme heat and enhance urban resilience
Cities are increasingly facing extreme heat due to rising temperatures from accelerating climate change and the heat island effect caused by rapid urban expansions. In response to this emerging hazard, cities are developing and implementing policies aimed at mitigating the impacts of extreme heat, including initiatives to increase public awareness and enhance adaptive capacities. Additionally, many cities are leveraging artificial intelligence (A…

Curriculum Design Automation for Sustainability Competency Training
Sustainable development has positioned itself as a central axis in higher education, requiring the transformation of traditional curricular models towards structures that favor the formation of competencies in sustainability. This article proposes an innovative approach to automated curriculum design through the use of genetic algorithms, with the aim of optimizing the inclusion of content, methodologies and assessments focused on sustainability.…
Actualización en el manejo de la displasia congénita de cadera
La displasia congénita de cadera (DCC) es una afección en la cual la articulación de la cadera de un recién nacido no se desarrolla adecuadamente, generando inestabilidad o dislocación de la cabeza femoral fuera del acetábulo. El objetivo principal está enfocado en promover un diagnóstico temprano y un tratamiento adecuado, esto permitirá un buen desarrollo de las caderas, con un pronóstico favorable. En enero a junio del 2024 se realizó una revi…
Os direitos morais de integridade e atribuição no Brasil e nos EUA
Os ordenamentos de tradição jurídica civil-continental (droit d'auteur) e anglo-americana (copyright) apresentam diferenças históricas no tocante à proteção de direitos autorais, especialmente no que diz respeito ao tratamento dado aos direitos morais de autor. No entanto, a distinção entre os dois sistemas não deve ser exagerada. O estudo comparado do regime de direitos morais de integridade e atribuição vigente em dois países (Brasil e Estados …
Analysis of the environmental and economic performance of common agricultural policy eco-schemes in soil organic carbon sequestration
The Andalusian olive grove in South Spain is employed as a case study to assess the environmental and economic effects of the green architecture (eco-schemes) of the Common Agricultural Policy in relation to low carbon agriculture under different soil management policy scenarios to support more efficient agri-environmental policy making. To do so, we adopted a multidisciplinary approach in which we used: (i) an integrated modelling framework comp…
Elogio de la diversidad. Los nuevos monumentos del mundo rural
The video and its accompanying text are based on a particular source -monuments and statues in public spaces- to account for three large and profound transformations in Mexico's countryside. On the one hand, there is the change in the axis of economic activities, a process that has given rise to specializations that have helped neighbors remain in their communities or at least mitigated the exodus that has brought about depopulation in so many pl…
The impacts of seasonal variation and climate on food utilization in a population of critically endangered cotton‐top tamarins ( Saguinus oedipus ) in Colombia
To examine how precipitation patterns and climate change impact feeding choices made by a population of critically endangered cotton‐top tamarins ( Saguinus oedipus ), we examined 22 years of feeding data (1999–2020) from 21 groups collected at Parque Natural Regional Bosque Seco El Ceibal Mono Tití in Santa Catalina, Colombia. We describe the diet and examine the role of seasonal rainfall and annual variation in rainfall on diet. Rainfall is hig…
Designing an effective climate-policy mix
We assess evidence from theoretical-modelling, empirical and experimental studies on how interactions between instruments of climate policy affect overall emissions reduction. Such interactions take the form of negative, zero or positive synergistic effects. The considered instruments comprise performance and technical standards, carbon pricing, adoption subsidies, innovation support, and information provision. Based on the findings, we formulate…
Youth Practices in Digital Arts and New Media
The authors examine youths' practices in digital culture affecting social change, pedagogy, and creative learning practices. Knowledge about these practices is discussed, in which learning, knowledge
Exploring the Feasibility of Assessing Perceived Parental Rearing Styles in Spanish Children With Theembu
Most of the available data on the dimensional structure underlying the EMBU - an originally Swedish measure designed to assess one's recollections concerning one's parents' rearing behaviour - has been obtained with adults or adolescents. In the present study, using exploratory factor analysis, an attempt was made to determine the EMBU factorial structure in a Spanish sample of children aged 7-12 years (N=205). Four factors explaining only 24% an…
Pragmatic functions of blind and sighted children's language
Results are presented from a longitudinal study on the acquisition of Spanish by twin girls, one of whom was blind, the other of whom was sighted. Analyses were undertaken of the MLU of the subjects from the age of 2;5 to 3;5, and on the functional categories used by both children. The data indicate that (1) the blind girl had a slightly higher MLU than her sighted sister, and (2) the two girls exhibited differences in their pragmatic uses of lan…
