Evaluation of different amendments to reduce arsenic availability in soils cultivated with carrot (Daucus carota) in the atacama locality of Chiu Chiu
No full textEn la localidad de San Francisco de Chiu Chiu, agricultores pertenecientes al pueblo
originario Atacameño establecen sus cultivos, principalmente zanahoria (Daucus carota) en
suelos que poseen en forma natural altas concentraciones de arsénico (As), metaloide tóxico.
El objetivo del trabajo fue evaluar la disponibilidad de As en suelos con la aplicación de
distintas enmiendas y su transferencia a un cultivo de zanahoria. La metodología consistió
en ensayos en invernadero con suelo de Chiu Chiu, donde se estableció un cultivo de
zanahoria con cinco tratamientos: 1) SCh: Suelo Chiu Chiu (suelo sin enmienda) 2)
SCh+Est+Esc: suelo con aplicación de estiércol y escoria 3) SCh+Com+Esc: suelo con
aplicación de compost y escoria 4) SCh+Com: suelo con aplicación de compost y 5)
SCh+Est: suelo con aplicación de estiércol. Se determinaron las propiedades químicas del
suelo y enmiendas, y posteriormente se realizó una extracción secuencial en los tratamientos
para evaluar la disponibilidad de As separando en cinco fracciones. Los resultados indican
que SCh+Com disminuyó significativamente el As en las fracciones más disponibles, I y II.
En la fracción III, asociada a los óxidos de Fe y Al poco cristalinos, no se observaron
diferencias estadísticamente significativas, mientras que, en la fracción IV, asociada a óxidos
de Fe y Al bien cristalizados y materia orgánica, se encontró mayor concentración de As en
el SCh+Est. En cuanto a la absorción por parte de las plantas, no hubo diferencias
estadísticamente significativas en el As encontrado en tejido vegetal, sin embargo, disminuyó
en comparación a zanahorias de Chiu Chiu estudiadas previamente.In the town of San Francisco de Chiu Chiu, farmers belonging to the Atacameño indigenous
people establish their crops, mainly carrot (Daucus carota) in soils that naturally have high
concentrations of arsenic (As), a toxic metalloid. The objective of the work was to evaluate
the availability of As in soils with the application of different amendments and its transfer to
a carrot crop. The methodology consisted of greenhouse trials with Chiu Chiu soil, where a
carrot crop was established with five treatments: 1) SCh: Chiu Chiu soil (soil without
amendment) 2) SCh+Est+Esc: soil with application of manure and slag 3) SCh+Com+Esc:
soil with application of compost and slag 4) SCh+Com: soil with application of compost and
5) SCh+Est: soil with application of manure. Previously, the chemical properties of the soil
and amendments were determined, and then a sequential extraction was performed in the
treatments to evaluate the availability of As by separating it into five fractions. The results
indicate that SCh+Com significantly decreased the As in the most available fractions, I and
II. In fraction III, associated with poorly crystalline Fe and Al oxides, no statistically
significant differences were observed, while in fraction IV, associated with well-crystallized
Fe and Al oxides and organic matter, a higher concentration of As was found in SCh+Est.
Regarding absorption by plants, there were no statistically significant differences in the As
found in plant tissue, however, it decreased compared to previously studied Chiu Chiu
carrots.Versión original del auto

I Fu-chiu and the relationship between Chinese and Japanese literati paintings
No full textPainting has been the dominant form of Chinese art since the Southern Sung dynasty of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. The various preferences of emperors and the general populace influenced the social values and positions of the painting styles or schools in differet periods. Among the various styles, literati painting usually enjoyed a higher appreciation and reputation among the Chinese scholars and officials. There were no formal distinctions between the different styles, until the Ming dynasty painter-theorist, Tung Chi-ch’ang, who advocated and organized the distinctions between the Southern and Northern schools in Chinese painting. He classified the Southern school or literati painting as the most intellectual style of Chinese painting. Although the theories of Tung Chi-ch’ang were imperfect, it became an orthodoxy in the succeeding centuries. Tung chi- ch’ang’s theories as well as later Chinese painting manuals were brought to Nagasaki, Japan, during the Toku-gawa era by Chinese merchants. Although the primary concern of the merchants was mercenary, they also functioned as agents of cultural exchange and viewed the Chinese merchant-painter I Fu-chiu as one of the most important inspirers of the movement of the Japanese Nanga school. I Fu-chiu was an amateur painter from Wuhsing, the most artistic and intellectual center in the Yangtse delta. It was I Fu-chiu who, by- bringing his painting style to Nagasaki, also introduced the Chinese literati tradition, with which his work was thoroughly imbued, to the Japanese. The seventeenth century early stages of Nanga development were deeply influenced by Chinese traditions and philosophies and laid the groundwork for a new approach to individualism. That new individualism blossomed with Ikeno Taiga who combined both Chinese and Japanese styles to form his own individual style. Ikeno Taiga’s personal style included aspects of the Chinese literati traditons which had originally come to Japan through I Fu-chiu. Although the influences of I Fu-chiu and the Chinese literati tradition are not overtly obvious, they nevertheless do exist in the style of Ikeno Taiga
El Riego que el Mercado no Quiere Ver: Historia del Despojo Hídrico en las Comunidades de Lasana y Chiu-Chiu (Desierto de Atacama, Chile)
No full textEl Código de Aguas chileno es conocido por ser un ejemplo radical de libre mercado. Como parte del proceso de implementación de este modelo en el Desierto de Atacama, la dictadura militar inició en 1983 la privatización de los derechos de aguas superficiales en las comunidades atacameñas de Lasana y Chiu-Chiu. El objetivo de esta acción fue decolectivizar las aguas bajo un sistema que facilitase la libre transacción de derechos entre el sector agrícola a los sectores minero y sanitario. Bajo la mirada de la ecología política, en este artículo busco responder a las preguntas de cómo la dictadura privatizó los derechos de aguas en Lasana y Chiu-Chiu para producir un mercado de aguas y cómo, mediante esta acción, reconfiguró el paisaje hídrico de estas comunidades. Para ello recurro a entrevistas en profundidad, análisis de archivo y la ilustración de imágenes satelitales. Los resultados visibilizan el cómo la dictadura al ignorar formas de riego tradicional, ejercer coacción y mentir deliberadamente a los regantes locales, regularizó menos agua de la que la que solían utilizar. Ello generó un excedente el cual fue centralizadamente transferido, a las industrias extractivas.
The Chilean Water Code is known as a radical example of a free market model for resource management. As part of the implementation of this model in the Atacama Desert, in 1983 the military dictatorship began to privatize surface water rights in the Atacama communities of Lasana and Chiu-Chiu. The objective of this action was to decollectivize water under a system that facilitated the transfer of rights between the agricultural sector to the mining and sanitary sectors. In light of a political ecology framework, in this article, I address questions of how the dictatorship privatized water rights in Lasana and Chiu-Chiu to produce a water market, and how, through this action, it reconfigured the water landscape of these communities. In doing so, I use in-depth interviews, archival analysis, and satellite images. Results show that the dictatorship used coercion, ignored traditional irrigation, and deliberately lied to local peasants, and as a result, privatized less water than they used to use. This action generated a surplus which was centrally transferred to the extractive industries
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
