The ineffectiveness of current environmental and fire policies in the world’s largest wetland
The Upper Paraguay Basin (UPRB) covers 361 338 km 2 in Brazil and can be divided into the Planalto (plateau) and the Pantanal, the largest wetland in the world. This area faces pressures from climate change, land use and cover change (LULC), and infrastructure. Therefore, this study evaluates the effectiveness of current environmental policies on native vegetation conservation, water availability, and fire dynamics in the UPRB under current legis…
A review of open data for studying global groundwater in social–ecological systems
Global data have served an integral role in characterizing large-scale groundwater systems, identifying their sustainability challenges, and informing on socioeconomic and ecological dimensions of groundwater. These insights have revealed groundwater as a dynamic component of the water cycle and social–ecological systems, leading to an expansion in groundwater science that increasingly focuses on groundwater’s interactions with ecological, socioe…
Cattle production in Southern Amazonia: Implications for land and water management
The expansion of cattle in central western Brazil has been under scrutiny because of the region’s historic reliance on Amazon and Cerrado deforestation for cropland and pastureland expansion. In this study, we determined the volumetric water footprint (VWF) and the land footprint (LF) of cattle in Mato Grosso state for the years 2000, 2005, 2010 and 2014 using official statistics and remote sensing imagery. We found the average VWF of cattle for …
A contribution to harmonize water footprint assessments
Russian and Post-Soviet Studies: Education
Attenuation of urban agricultural production potential and crop water footprint due to shading from buildings and trees
Urban agriculture requires local water to replace ‘hydrologic externalities’ associated with food produced outside of the local area, with an accompanying shift of the water footprint (WF) for agricultural production from rural to urban areas. Water requirements of urban agriculture have been difficult to estimate due to the heterogeneity of shading from trees and buildings within urban areas. We developed CityCrop, a plant growth and evapotransp…
Environmental footprints show China and Europe’s evolving resource appropriation for soybean production in Mato Grosso, Brazil
Mato Grosso has become the center of Brazil's soybean industry, with production located across an agricultural frontier expanding into savanna and rainforest biomes. We present environmental footprints of soybean production in Mato Grosso and resource flows accompanying exports to China and Europe for the 2000s using five indicators: deforestation, land footprint (LF), carbon footprint (CF), water footprint (WF), and nutrient footprints. Soybean …
Water use by terrestrial ecosystems: Temporal variability in rainforest and agricultural contributions to evapotranspiration in Mato Grosso, Brazil
The state of Mato Grosso, Brazil, has experienced rapid land use changes from the expansion of rain-fed agriculture (primarily soybean and pasture). This study presents changes to evapotranspiration contributions from terrestrial ecosystems in Mato Grosso over the 2000–9 period. Instead of focusing on land use change to infer hydrologic change, in this paper we assess hydrologic changes using remote sensing, meteorological and agricultural produc…
A Prospective Investigation of Physical Health Outcomes in Abused and Neglected Children: New Findings From a 30-Year Follow-Up
Objectives. We investigated whether abused and neglected children are at risk for negative physical health outcomes in adulthood. Methods. Using a prospective cohort design, we matched children (aged 0–11 years) with documented cases of physical and sexual abuse and neglect from a US Midwestern county during 1967 through 1971 with nonmaltreated children. Both groups completed a medical status examination (measured health outcomes and blood tests)…
Public Participation and Perceptions of Watershed Modeling
Public participation in environmental management is increasingly common across many natural resource sectors. Environmental policies in the water resources sector, in particular, depend upon both computer-based watershed modeling activities and public participation in watershed management decisions, though the integration of participation in watershed modeling remains uncommon. Case studies of two watershed councils in Central New York offer diff…

The Economic Burden of Hospitalizations Associated With Child Abuse and Neglect
Objectives. This study assessed the economic burden of child abuse–related hospitalizations. Methods. We compared inpatient stays coded with a diagnosis of child abuse or neglect with stays of other hospitalized children using the 1999 National Inpatient Sample of the Healthcare Costs and Utilization Project. Results. Children whose hospital stays were coded with a diagnosis of abuse or neglect were significantly more likely to have died during h…

The Different Roles of Satisfaction, Trust, and Commitment in Customer Relationships
Several theories of relationship marketing propose that customers vary in their relationships with a firm on a continuum from transactional to highly relational bonds. Few empirical studies have segmented the customer base of an organization into low and high relational groups to assess how evaluations vary for these groups. Using structural equation analysis, the authors analyze the relationships of satisfaction, trust, and commitment to compone…
Engendering Sexuality in Brazil and the Southern Philippines
Gender and sexuality are hot topics in contemporary social theory and anthropology, and no topic is hotter than that of the newly emerging category of transgender. As with any social category, transgender has its own history and cultural location, but it is being used increasingly in cross-cultural descriptions of people whose expression or subjectivity does not match their ascribed gender. Sometimes referred to as third (cf. Herdt 1994), such ca…
From delinquency to counterrevolution. Subcultures of Soviet youth and the emergence of Stalinist pedagogy in the 1930s
The rise of Russian progressive education in the 1910s and 1920s and its violent repudiation in the 1930s and after constitute some of the most dramatic episodes in the modern history of education. Prevailing explanations for the “failure” of Russian progressivism have emphasized either its inhererent Utopian impracticality and/or the rejection of its egalitarian and libertarian values by the increasingly conservative and repressive Stalinist reg…
