This article presents cultural conservation projects in Iran and Iraq, in each of which the social context of the archaeological site and the collection were also considered, in order to develop long-term conservation planning. The objective of one project is to improve the water supply for the local village population near an ancient salt mine in Iran in order to retain them as stewards of the archaeological site. Another project shows how digital media and different narrative perspectives are intended to appeal to different target groups in Iran and worldwide to raise awareness of the so-called salt mummies recovered from the ancient salt mine. International experts are also addressed via online formats to discuss the challenges of the ethical handling of human remains for conservation and exhibition. In Kurdistan (Iraq), young archaeology students are introduced to the topics of archaeological heritage management in order to recruit them as future caretakers. What all projects have in common is that relationships and cross-sector networks are being established to build a crisis-proof local community that takes care of its cultural heritage. In this way, projects can be implemented that are primarily carried out by local actors, thereby building up expertise that will endure. These projects are the initial attempts to link cultural preservation and social well-being and thus to make a contribution to sustainable development in line with the UN's 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

This article aims to review and synthesize the results of the activities that different work teams are carrying out in relation to livestock and ecosystem services in different regions of Spain. The questions will focus on specific points such as, for example, the role of organic/extensive livestock farming in maintaining ecosystems; knowledge of experiences of payment for environmental services; how they should be measured and remunerated, among others. With this research, it can be seen that there is a concern for ecosystems throughout the Spanish territory. The experiences cited by the interviewees show that extensive or ecological ranchers, in general, are concerned with the conservation of the environment. Finally, it is concluded that organic or extensive farming still has to advance, especially in the understanding of current European legislation, so that ways of paying farmers for the environmental services provided can be suggested.

This research article shows an exploratory study to examine the contribution of the members of the Ramón Campaña parish to the preservation of indigenous culture to identify and evaluate its manifestations, describing its peculiarities in the studied context as well as the potential for contribute to its preservation. The population was made up of a probabilistic sample of the 30 families of indigenous descent in the parish. With the objective of analyzing the contribution of the indigenous culture in the Ramón Campaña parish to the process of construction of the Ecuadorian cultural identity to redefine its particularities. The contributions will focus on the theoretical order and will aim to revisit the contribution of indigenous culture in this parish, with characteristics and thematic axes that allow establishing its epistemic independence. Likewise, they will be oriented towards the introduction of theoretical considerations that serve to verify, from a better analytical framework, the specific conditions under which their preservation is contributed. It is concluded that the Ramón Campaña parish of the Pangua Canton in Ecuador needs to strengthen institutional, cantonal and parish work through strategic alliances, necessary reforms to its educational systems and joint and interdisciplinary work, to contribute to the preservation of cultural identity of the nation's indigenous peoples.

El aceleramiento en el desarrollo tecnológico trae ciertos retos y dudas sobre el mantenimiento de las herramientas y los datos. ¿Tenemos que aceptar que los datos digitales dejarán de ser útiles en algunas décadas? En este artículo se dan algunas soluciones concretas como el uso de repositorios, la aplicación de los principios FAIR o el uso de formatos estándares como XML-TEI. Pero en un tenor más general, se argumenta por mantener la mirada histórica de las humanidades y las bibliotecas y realizar una crítica humanística y cuantitativa de los aspectos digitales.

Aquatic ecosystems, essential for water purification, climate regulation and biodiversity conservation, face increasingly worrying threats due to the release of contaminants, including copper sulfate and aluminum sulfate. These compounds, exert serious adverse effects on the health of aquatic organisms and the integrity of their biological niches. This study focuses on Gammarus pulex, a highly sensitive indicator of pollution in aquatic habitats. To address this research, a rigorous methodology was implemented that ranged from the isolation and identification of G. pulex individuals to their acclimatization and subsequent controlled exposure to copper and aluminum sulfate. Comprehensive evaluation of the effects of this exposure included in detailed morphometric and population analyses. The results revealed that all studied concentrations of these contaminants caused significant reductions in the growth of G. pulex populations. Noting, worryingly, that treatment with Al2(SO4)5 during an exposure period of 48 hours and at a concentration of 40 ppm resulted in 100% mortality. Together, these findings underscore the urgent need to address copper sulfate and aluminum sulfate pollution in aquatic ecosystems, recognizing the vulnerability of key species such as G. pulex. Preserving the health of these populations and conserving the integrity of aquatic ecosystems is essential to ensure the proper functioning and sustainability of these valuable habitats.

La definición y priorización de actividades de restauración del paisaje en áreas deforestadas es esencial para la salud a largo plazo de los ecosistemas, la biodiversidad y las comunidades humanas que dependen de los servicios ecosistémicos de los bosques. Este estudio se enfocó en la compleja área de Belmira, Antioquia, en los Andes colombianos, donde el objetivo principal de la investigación se centró en la identificación de áreas y actividades de restauración mediante un análisis espacial multicriterio y un análisis multitemporal. Se presentó una metodología innovadora de elicitación que considera las características individuales de cada experto para estimar la importancia de estas actividades. Se diseñó un instrumento de madera con escala numérica para el proceso de elicitación, controlando posibles sesgos cognitivos mediante protocolos estructurados. Además, se introdujo un algoritmo para generar muestras de distribuciones de probabilidad elicitadas a partir de modelos beta con el objetivo de mejorar la robustez de los resultados. Los hallazgos destacaron que las actividades de restauración de cuencas y suelos, así como las cercas vivas, son consideradas de mayor importancia por los expertos en toda el área de estudio. Estos resultados sugieren que los esfuerzos ambientales en la región deben focalizarse en estas actividades para generar impacto positivo.

Microbial collections preserve strains ex situ with the purpose of maintaining viable, pure and stable microorganisms over time. For this purpose, it is recommended ideally to preserve by cryopreservation and freeze-drying. Currently, the Collection of the Escuela de Microbiología at the Universidad de Antioquia (CM-EM-UDEA) preserves bacteria only by cryopreservation and requires standardization of freeze-drying to maintain the viability of microorganisms for a long time, to optimize storage and to facilitate transport while maintaining their stable characteristics. The aim was to evaluate the freeze-drying process in different bacteria from the CM-EM-UDEA Microorganisms Collection. Six bacteria were selected, the inocula were standardized and different lyoprotectants were evaluated, assessing the freeze-drying efficiency through viability, purity and stability of each microorganism before and after freeze-drying. In most of the microorganisms, the lyoprotectant that presented the best results in viability and physical characteristics of the dry product was sucrose. However, effects observed in the other lyoprotectants in specific microorganisms make them an alternative for use according to their availability. This study enabled standardizing the lyophilization process maintaining 100% purity and viability and stability in high percentages, in most of the microorganisms evaluated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

En el centro-este de la provincia de Santa Fe (departamentos San Jerónimo, La Capital y Las Colonias) la mala preservación ósea constituye un rasgo característico del registro arqueológico regional. Por este motivo, durante la última década se encuentra en desarrollo una investigación orientada al estudio de la diagénesis ósea a diferentes niveles de organización de los huesos. Parte de la misma estuvo centrada en la generación, mediante el uso de sistemas de información geográfica (SIG), de modelos espaciales de preservación ósea diferencial basados en las propiedades de los suelos. Los modelos generados han sido evaluados, y continúan siéndolo en el presente, con información obtenida del análisis de restos óseos recuperados en sitios arqueológicos del área. En este marco, el objetivo de este trabajo es presentar y discutir versiones ampliadas de tales modelos espaciales para un área que incluye la cuenca media e inferior del río Paraná (provincias de Santa Fe, Entre Ríos y Buenos Aires), con el objetivo de proporcionar un marco adecuado para interpretar la variación en las condiciones de preservación ósea en el sur de la región del Litoral argentino.

The preservation of radio heritage is in a complex and challenging situation because it is necessary to digitize, before the end of this decade, the largest amount of content recorded on magnetic tapes to preserve it from irreversible deterioration. And at the same time it is essential to implement preservation measures for digital content whose decentralized hosting and lack of systematic preservation are threatening its conservation. These actions are framed in a context of fascination for the incorporation of artificial intelligence technologies for the recovery and treatment of documents as well as for the creation of sound contents. The purpose of this article is to report and raise awareness about the risk of loss of radio heritage and to motivate safeguarding actions because that in the era of intelligent algorithms, this heritage can be reused for the benefit of society.

Here is presented an advance of the investigation aimed at substantiating the need for standardization of the terminology of the area and conservation-restoration based on a detailed analysis of the theoretical terms used in the specialized bibliography recovered in scientific databases in 4 languages: Spanish of Latin American origin and of Iberian origin, Italian, French and English; It also includes surveys carried out on professionals in the discipline. An approach to the object of study was carried out from an integrated and shared theory with the same methodological design, bringing together quantitative scientific research with the principles of quality management and the conceptual matrix of the existence and conservation-restoration of cultural assets. It includes the epistemic-methodological framework used for the quantitative semantic analysis of the documents written in the native language of the authors. The terminological study was carried out through a mathematical modeling adopting a systemic perspective that provides an area of convergence, complementation and articulation of the different interacting disciplinary domains in order to reach an agreement regarding the standardization of terminology and practical fact. that it represents.

Los proyectos de gestión y preservación del patrimonio cultural son una expresión de los proyectos sociocultura - les que tienen como objetivo esencial contribuir al desa - rrollo, difusión de conocimientos y capacidades sociales, así como fomentar y preservar la cultura y el patrimonio. Por esta razón, constituyen una herramienta esencial para lograr la trasformación de la realidad y los modos de vida de los habitantes de un espacio geográfico determinado. Como todos los proyectos, estos deben conocer sus im - pactos, los cuales pueden estar asociados o no a los ob - jetivos planteados y las acciones desarrolladas. De ahí la importancia de la evaluación como fase de la gestión que permite reunir los datos y valoraciones necesarios para to - mar decisiones y apreciar los procesos de la conservación y preservación del patrimonio cultural de forma íntegra y dinámica, constatando al mismo tiempo los niveles de desarrollo alcanzados y las brechas que perduran. De ello trata el presente ensayo que reflexiona sobre la importancia y necesidad de la evaluación y seguimiento del impacto en proyectos de gestión y preservación del patrimonio cultural, a la vez que ofrece visiones de posibles caminos teóricos, metodológicos y prácticos para su ejecución en el contexto cubano.

La era dorada del pódcast sonoro es la forma como se califica a la segunda década del siglo XXI. Este periodo se caracteriza por la proliferación, diversidad y amplia distribución de este tipo de materiales sonoros, que son evidencia de la creación, pensamiento y expresión artística de la sociedad. El pódcast, además de ser un medio a través del cual se transmite información audible, es un tipo de documento de origen digital cuya naturaleza documental ha sido poco estudiada. Este artículo tiene como objetivo determinar algunas de las características del pódcast como documento sonoro de origen digital y con ello contribuir a establecer las bases para su preservación. Para ello, se presenta el marco conceptual, el origen y evolución del pódcast, se define la estructura y el soporte del pódcast como objeto digital, se alude a su relevancia como medio que aborda contenidos de actualidad e interés social, y se señala el riesgo de pérdida de este tipo documental.

This paper aims to analyze the theoretical-conceptual assumptions concerning cultural heritage and its link with Latin American cultural identity. To achieve this goal, we reflect on cultural heritage as a material, tangible and intangible asset of humanity, whose value is not obtained in a utilitarian way, but through its connection with the ancestral legacy and with social identification towards it. On the other hand, it points out the importance of the ownership and conservation of heritage buildings, which is why cultural management is essential, whose purpose is to summon the citizenry, the State and private entities to respect and value heritage, assuming a responsible, sustainable and sustained attitude towards emblematic historic buildings in Latin America, which have been victims of human intervention, violence, and various natural disasters. Finally, by understanding that adequate care and understanding of the historical, social and philosophical relevance of historical heritage buildings would improve not only the material conditions of the buildings, but also the citizen's conception of their identity and the role they play. as a mechanism of resistance to the changes sponsored by globalization.

This research aims to design an urban environmental management procedure for the preservation of buildings with heritage value, with an emphasis on the environment. It has been based on the systematic identification of affectations, which favors a better and effective decision-making since the consensus of multidisciplinary and multisectoral working groups in a flexible and systematic process, through three stages to plan - organize, to regulate - execut and to monitor – control with nine steps that help and detail the internal processes of each stage. Its application as a case study to the Casa Natal de Calixto García museum has been a working tool for specialists and managers. It also made it possible to generate changes and favorable impacts on the property in contribution to the care, protection and defense of said construction and therefore the legacy to future generations.

El presente artículo busca revelar el potencial de la Amazonía y las acciones y planteamientos importantes que se desarrollaron en la protección y la ocupación de ese territorio. Se incluye la memoria oral y escrita, las sociedades y las expresiones artísticas, porque se necesita conocer no sólo un aspecto de la región, sino también, su gente: ideas, culturas y artes, además de su historia como experiencia y relato. También se propone analizar los problemas que afectan ese territorio en la actualidad: por un lado, la deforestación y la poluición; por otro, el medio ambiente, la preservación de la naturaleza y el uso sostenible de los pueblos de la Amazonía.

El extenso universo del patrimonio audiovisual abarca diversas áreas. Una de ellas se enfoca en la preservación de acervos fotográficos. El aumento exponencial en la producción de imágenes, derivado del acceso a nuevas tecnologías, ha propiciado su masificación en términos de distribución y consumo. Este escenario invita a reflexionar sobre el papel que juegan los acervos documentales fotográficos en la (re)construcción de una memoria colectiva, tanto en un sentido diacrónico como sincrónico. El caso del Museo Archivo de la Fotografía, ubicado en el corazón de la Ciudad de México, es un espacio concebido como depositario de una memoria visual que muestra las transformaciones de una capital convulsa y culturalmente compleja. En esta entrevista, el antropólogo visual Daniel Vargas (actual director del recinto), aborda no solo los retos que conlleva mantener en óptimas condiciones un acervo que consta de poco más de dos millones de imágenes, sino su incidencia en la construcción de una memoria colectiva.

The effects of environmental events on living conditions during occupation periods are studied by comparing alluvial soils and occupation floors that formed during the late Holocene in the Moche valley (North Peruvian coast). The microcontextual study comprises (1) microsurface identification in the field; (2) micromorphological analysis of thin sections; (3) multi-scale characterization of soil components based on digital stereo microscope and scanning electron microscope analysis. The alluvial sequence consists of a 6 m thick alternation of organic silty-clay, fine sandy strata with well-preserved ashy charcoal strata and massive grey sandy beds. This cyclical pattern reflects alternation of stable episodes with a dense reed-bed vegetation, regularly affected by wildfires and drought marked by sand invasions from coastal dunes during El Niño events. The 14C dates show that these contrasting conditions lasted for one millennium up to establishment of the Mochica empire at the Huaca at 300 years cal. BC. Vesicular slags produced by flash-melting of the soil components, biosourced quartz and nanostructured polymers formed from flash-ionization of the reed vegetation, all with FeCrNi metals coatings, were retrieved in the fired surfaces. They trace impact at the soil surface of electrically charged particles, lightning-flashes, nanoaerosol production by enhanced atmospheric electrification, i.e., flash-heating, shock vaporization, plasma-polymerization of the vegetation and the host matrix. The study shows the occurrence in the basal Uhle platform occupation deposits at the foot of the Huaca de la Luna of similar cemented ashy microfacies associated with a funerary deposit with food offerings in ritual vessels and an intriguing scoriaceous slag. The evidence for ritual disposal of imperishable offerings to deaths is interpreted as the memorial record of the Mochica knowledge of long-lived materials produced by lightning-triggered plasma processes. This integrated study of the environmental and cultural contexts refutes previous assumptions of long-term engineering of the arable alluvial plain to counteract sand invasion and torrential floods. In contrast, the establishment of the Moche pyramids is shown to have occurred during a period of floodplain stability marked by high-energy natural events and lightning processes that offered access to durable soil resources of important social values.
