Índice de resiliencia urbana costera para el manejo de residuos sólidos urbanos
Investigación y Ciencia de la Universidad Autónoma de Aguascalientes, 2021 Los huracanes representan la mayor amenaza de las comunidades costeras. Pueden convertir ciudades enteras en escombros y dejar sus calles cubiertas de basura, animales muertos y desechos tóxicos. El objetivo principal fue determinar el grado de resiliencia en el manejo de los Residuos Sólidos Urbanos (RSU) de la ciudad costera de Tulum, Quintana Roo ...

Índice de resiliencia de infraestructura de agua potable ante huracanes en ciudades costeras
Revista Geográfica de América Central, 2018 El objetivo de este trabajo fue determinar el índice de resiliencia de la infraestructura de agua potable de una ciudad costera ante huracanes. El modelo teórico utilizado se basa en las 4R de resiliencia y la variable de capacidad adaptativa. Como instrumentos para recopilación de información se utilizó un cuestionario a la población cuya aplicación ...

Comparison of Aerobic Scope for Metabolic Activity in Aquatic Ectotherms With Temperature Related Metabolic Stimulation: A Novel Approach for Aerobic Power Budget [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 Considering that swim-flume or chasing methods fail in the estimation of maximum metabolic rate and in the estimation of Aerobic Scope (AS) of sedentary or sluggish aquatic ectotherms, we propose a novel conceptual approach in which high metabolic rates ...

Benthic species assemblages change through a freshwater cavern-type cenote in the Yucatán Peninsula, Mexico [PDF]
Subterranean Biology, 2022 We studied benthic assemblages through X-Batún, a continental freshwater cenote and its associated submerged cave located in San Antonio Mulix (Yucatán, Mexico). Using cave diving techniques, we collected sediment samples at four zones of the system.

Hazard assessment and hydrodynamic, morphodynamic, and hydrological response to Hurricane Gamma and Hurricane Delta on the northern Yucatán Peninsula [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022 Barrier islands in tropical regions are prone to coastal flooding and erosion during hurricane events. The Yucatán coast, characterized by karstic geology and the presence of barrier islands, was impacted by Hurricane Gamma and Hurricane Delta in October

Las inundaciones del litoral con la consistente erosión son una amenaza para los sistemas costeros. La tendencia actual de subida del nivel del mar por el cambio climático (Holgate & Woodworth, 2004; Amblar et al, 2017; IPCC, 2022, Jigena et al., 2021, 2023) muestran riesgos extensos y potencialmente castastróficos para los ecosistemas, las poblaciones

The role of the reef–dune system in coastal protection in Puerto Morelos (Mexico) [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2018 Reefs and sand dunes are critical morphological features providing natural coastal protection. Reefs dissipate around 90 % of the incident wave energy through wave breaking, whereas sand dunes provide the final natural barrier against coastal flooding.

Human Impact on the Spatiotemporal Evolution of Beach Resilience on the Northwestern Yucatan Coast
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 The northern Yucatan peninsula is prone to coastal flooding and erosion owing to its low-land elevation and high exposure to storms. Therefore, it is important to assess the capability of the beach-dune system to resist, recover, and adapt from storms in
