ESTOA: Revista de la Facultad de Arquitectura y Urbanismo de la Universidad de CuencaThe parametric approach used in this study explores various solar shading design scenarios during the early stages of the project. The objective is to reduce annual energy requirements in cold, arid, temperate climates, such as Mendoza, classified as BWk

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Changing climates are leading to more frequent and severe heat waves, potentially threatening plant populations. Both acclimation to stress and selection for heat‐escape or heat‐resistance phenotypes occur during heat waves. However, plastic responses and selection do not necessarily interact cohesively—even producing trait responses ...

Enhancing security of land tenure for IDPs
Forced Migration Review, 2014 "The case of Maslakh in western Afghanistan is an example of translating Afghanistan’s new IDP Policy into reality. If successful the project will ensure security of land tenure for IDPs in urban settings and set a precedent for local integration of IDPs

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise The species‐rich flora of Tropical Andes underwent multiple rapid and recent diversifications, yet resolving their evolutionary histories remains challenging despite increasing phylogenomic data. Here, we examined phylogenomic conflict in Brachyotum (Melastomataceae) to identify sources preventing its resolution.

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2006 Shallow leeward reefs off the western end of Curaçao are dominated by extensive populations of M. annularis (complex). These species are larger in size (mean= 66 cm diameter) than all other species, with few small colonies (10 cm observed within ...

ESTOA: Revista de la Facultad de Arquitectura y Urbanismo de la Universidad de CuencaNowadays, efforts are underway to minimize the negative environmental impact of the construction industry, which results from the use of non-renewable raw materials and the high energy consumption associated with their production. The primary strategy to

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise Global climate change has altered the eco‐evolutionary trajectories of plant species, leading to observed shifts in phenotypes, such as earlier flowering. However, disentangling the contributions of plasticity and adaptation to trait changes remains challenging.
