247 p, 1.8 MB Planear en el trópico : Conocimiento y acción en la gestión de parques nacionales en Colombia: el caso del Parque Nacional Natural Amacayacu / Ungar Ronderos, Paola María ; Strand, Roger, dir. ; Ramos Martín, Jesús, dir. ; Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Institut de Ciència i Tecnologia Ambientals
La creación de áreas protegidas es la principal estrategia mundial para la conservación in situ de la biodiversidad. Su manejo ha sido concebido de diferentes maneras y hoy en día conviven diferentes discursos sobre el papel que se espera jueguen el Estado, los expertos y la sociedad; sobre la forma en que se deben tomar las decisiones y sobre el conocimiento que se considera pertinente para tomarlas. [...]
Protected areas are the main world strategy for in situ conservation of biodiversity. How they should be managed is an issue that is tackled in often divergent manners. Questions about the roles that the state, experts and civil society should play, on how management should take place and on what knowledge is pertinent are answered in varied ways in the literature. [...]

57 p, 1.0 MB Biophysical requirements of power-supply systems : nuclear energy and fossil energy / Díaz Maurin, François ; Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. Institut de Ciència i Tecnologia Ambientals ; Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona
The report presents a grammar capable of analyzing the process of production of electricity in modular elements for different power-supply systems, defined using semantic and formal categories. In this way it becomes possible to individuate similarities and differences in the process of production of electricity, and then measure and compare "apples" with "apples" and "oranges" with "oranges". [...]
