Esta investigación analiza la feria agroecológica UNIMINUTO, un ejemplo destacado de economía solidaria y de consumo sostenible en Bogotá, Colombia. Al utilizar la teoría de las prácticas sociales y entrevistas semi-estructuradas con 10 consumidores frecuentes, este estudio identifica las principales motivaciones de los consumidores para asistir a este espacio, que incluyen el apoyo a los productoThis research examines the UNIMINUTO agroecological fair, a prominent example of solidarity economy and sustainable consumption in Bogotá, Colombia. Employing a social practice theory lens and semi-structured interviews with ten frequent attendees, this study identifies key consumer motivations, including support for local producers, product quality, health benefits, knowledge acquisition, and the

As climate change and unsustainable waste practices present major global challenges, effective waste management in developing countries becomes critically important. In South Africa, organic waste constitutes a significant share of general waste and is often landfilled, contributing to methane emissions and serious health risks for the population. In response, the Western Cape province has introdu

Forest plantations play a crucial role in the livelihoods of Rwandan people. They provide valuable wood resources, such as timber and biomass energy. The first plantations created in the colonial period from 1920 to 1948 contained only exotic Eucalyptus species, which is thought to out-perform native species in terms of more rapid wood production. Over time, this resulted in the domination of non-

Dynamically predicted shelf-life label (DPSL) has been discussed to be one of the solutions to curb meat waste. Therefore, the research about the DPSL label and the perceptible information obtained by minced meat consumers is conducted. The research purpose is to identify the critical factors to design a DPSL label for minced meat consumers, and to design and assess the label with the consumers. T

In scenarios coined Maxwell's demon, information on microscopic degrees of freedom is used to seemingly violate the second law of thermodynamics. This has been studied in the classical as well as the quantum domain. In this paper, we study an implementation of Maxwell's demon that can operate in both domains. In particular, we investigate information-to-work conversion over the quantum-to-classica

Short-duration extreme rainfall can cause severe impacts in built environments and flood mitigation measures require high-resolution rainfall data to be effective. It is a particular challenge to observe convective storms, which are expected to intensify with climate change. However, rainfall monitoring networks operated by national meteorological and hydrological services generally have limited a

Excited states of Ag-99 were populated via the Cr-50 + Ni-58 (261 MeV) reaction using the NORDBALL detector array equipped with charged-particle and neutron. detector systems for reaction channel separation. On the basis of the measured gammagamma-coincidence relations and angular distribution ratios a significantly extended level scheme has been constructed up to E-x similar to 7.8 MeV and I = 35

The popliteal artery (PA) is, after aorta, the most common site for aneurysm formation. Why the PA is more susceptible than other peripheral muscular arteries is unknown. We hypothesized that the wall composition, which in turn affects wall properties, as well as the circumferential wall stress (WS) imposed on the arterial wall, might differ compared to other muscular arteries. The aim was to stud

Integrated development environments (IDEs) increase programmer productivity, providing rapid, interactive feedback based on the syntax and semantics of a language. A heavy burden lies on developers of new languages to provide adequate IDE support. Code generation techniques provide a viable, efficient approach to semi-automatically produce IDE plugins. Key components for the realization of plugins

This document give an overview of Telias OFDM based proposal for UTRA and should be considered as an input to the OFDM concept group within SMG 2. The document describe the fundamental frame structure, principles of the detection, modulation, coding and synchronisation. Further on the channel structure, the resource management and handover principles are outlined.

Artikeln behandlar rättegångsprocessen som en del av de mänskliga rättigheterna, dess centrala beståndsdelar och dess funktion ur såväl teoretisk som praktisk synvinkel.

The purpose of this thesis has been to analyse the mechanism of the market driving approach carried out by a global organisation with a corporate brand. Market driving is a new organisational approach to strategy that lacks a solid theoretical framework, but constitutes a reality of global firms such as IKEA, The Body Shop, Benetton, Dell, Hennes and Mauritz, Starbucks. In the literature, the mark

It is recommended that intervention thresholds should be based on absolute fracture risk, but there is a large variation in hip fracture incidence from different regions of the world. The aim of this study was to examine heterogeneity of hip fracture probability in different regions from recent estimates of hip fracture incidence and mortality to adjust intervention thresholds. Ten-year probabilit

The apparent permeability index is widely used as part of a general screening process to study drug absorption, and is routinely obtained from in vitro or ex vivo experiments. A classical example, widely used in the pharmaceutical industry, is the in vitro Caco-2 cell culture model. The index is defined as the initial flux of compound through the membrane (normalized by membrane surface area and d

The decay of core-excited electronic states in free 1,3 trans butadiene molecules has been studied using high-resolution synchrotron radiation and electron spectrometry. The core-level energy shift between the terminal and central carbon atoms is 0.64 eV making selective excitation of core electrons from these atoms possible. Resonant excitation to the au(*) valence state leads to autoionizing dec

The Integral Dictionary is a comprehensive lexical network for French, English, German, Italian, and Spanish. It is based on componential semantics and lexical functions. The network structure superimposes two graphs. A first graph consists of a hierarchy of concepts divided into classes and themes where the words form the terminal nodes of the graph. A second graph links the words together using

Transmembrane (TM) alpha-helical peptides with neutral flanking residues such as tryptophan form highly ordered striated domains when incorporated in gel-state 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) bilayers and inspected by atomic force microscopy (AFM) (1). In this study, we analyze the molecular organization of these striated domains using AFM, photo-cross-linking, fluorescence spec

One of the five largest mass extinctions of the past 600 million years occurred at the boundary of the Triassic and Jurassic periods, 201.6 million years ago. The loss of marine biodiversity at the time has been linked to extreme greenhouse warming, triggered by the release of carbon dioxide from flood basalt volcanism in the central Atlantic Ocean. In contrast, the biotic turnover in terrestrial
