Full textThis thesis is aimed at studying specific climatic elements of vital importance to human settlement, on a topoclimatic space scale -from a few meters only to a few kilometers- considering the setting of the place (relief). Most of the method is inductive, with different techniques of data collection which are then treated with statistical multivaried analysis, and it results in operational implements in three direction : - The studyof the space layout of temperatures in a rural environment, as well as of the radiative and advective mechanisms controlling the layout. The field of studies is low lands of plateaux, the Lorraine, and a highly contrasted area, the alpes-maritimes, and it results in a spatial interpolation method of temperature. - A research work in the effects of human settlements -grouped in townson temperature, air humidity, airflow (irban heat island) in a small twon, Vence, and a large town, Nice. - A study of a climate-bound hazard, serious in rural and peri-urban settlement in mediterranean region - the forest-fire hazard, quantified by risk indices values, which are used the Alpes-Maritimes rescue department

South of the Anacostia River in Washington DC, the Oxon Run park runs through the Washington Highlands and Congress Heights neighborhoods. Though these neighborhoods sit within Ward 8 of DC, which is has the lowest education levels and household incomes, Oxon Run park acts as a lively community magnet, sitting adjacent to the metro station, a vibrant community center, the public pool and multiple schools. This thesis design, Shelter to Habitat, attempts to provide a place for dog care, sheltering, homing and education to a community that needs it. It pushes the definition of sheltering and provides dogs with a space scaled and intentionally designed for their mental and physical health. The design prioritizes light, materiality and airflow to create a space that responds to the life of a dog. It addresses the needs of the community and integrates into the fabric of the neighborhood. The design creates an adaptive building that adjusts to the scale of the dog, while providing a public and private face that addresses the various needs of the community. These intentionally designed connection spaces become a very important part of the building design proposal. There a 3 unique scenarios that need to be considers and designed for when it comes to animal shelter. The first is proving shelter that is scaled to the size of the dog. Juxtaposed to this is hallways and lobbies that are scaled for the overlapping and interacting area of dogs and humans. Finally there are admin and community spaces that are scaled just for the human. These 3 defining scenarios led the design to a dynamic, flexible building that serves a variety of needs.

Full textOverall, density of nests at St. Denis averaged twice that found at Elstow and clutches were initiated earlier at St. Denis than at Elstow. Clutch size and hatching success did not differ between years or areas, but in 1987, nests at St. Denis produced nearly twice as many young as at Elstow.
Crows nested in willow, aspen, and other trees. Nest trees were larger than randomly-selected trees in both years and areas. At St. Denis, the area near active crow nests had, on average, more permanent wetlands, a greater proportion of pasture and wetland, and less area of cultivation than areas adjacent to random sites. At St. Denis, successful nests were closer to permanent water and had more permanent wetlands nearby than depredated nests, but discriminant function analysis could not correctly distinguish successful nests in either area. Selection of nest characteristics to evade predators does not appear to provide predictable advantages to breeding crows.

Full textThe objective of this essay is to comprehend the guiding principles of habitation in the 1960s through the analysis of the city with Yona Freidman\'s megastructures; of Kisho Kurokawa didatic materials regarding capsules; and João Filgueiras Limas production process through industrialization. The megastructures of Yona Friedman were structures with functions of a city, utilized emerging technologies and their objective was to shelter the population in a living space. The flexibility of the environments, the users mobility and participation were fundamental. The capsules, components of the living, involucres to the human living and industrially produced, proposed autonomy and symbiosis between man and machine. The industrialization was comprehended as an instrument to achieve fariness and result of the collective social conscience. To Lima, the habitat is composed by the necessary parts for the human development, composed by the urbanization, habitation and social equipments.

Full textprojeto urbano e arquitetónico dando origem a um equipamento social, uma residência para idosos. Um conjunto de procedimentos e estudos foram adotados para a conceção urbana e arquitetónica para a inserção do projeto no terreno. O estudo prévio foi constituído de conhecimentos a partir de análises teóricas e práticas relativas às atividades de um equipamento social. O estudo apresentado relata a busca do público-alvo por um espaço adequado para viver ou passar parte do dia convivendo com pessoas na sociedade, em que verificamos que há poucas ofertas para solucionar o problema existente. Na zona de intervenção, detetamos uma carência e a falta de equipamentos e serviços direcionados para a terceira idade, constatado nas primeiras análises ao território de Benfica. O estudo prévio estabelece alguns parâmetros, sendo um destes a de intervir no espaço urbano e integrar a população no espaço, para que se possa tirar um maior proveito dos espaços e equipamentos. Entretanto, não podemos projetar um espaço ou um equipamento sem pensar na envolvente ou como aproveitar o exterior. Assim, começámos por intervir no espaço urbano, onde encontramos a força do projeto arquitetónico, na figura do equipamento social, uma residência para idosos, para responder às necessidades do território e dos residentes. Na proposta optámos por uma arquitetura contemporânea e moderna, buscando sempre estudar os equipamentos com qualidade espacial e social, onde a vertente social foi inserida no projeto com o intuito de criar um espaço intergeracional de proximidade da família, amigos, moradores e visitantes, pois a proposta tem o propósito de unir as pessoas e evitar barreiras sociais.
ABSTRACT: This work seeks to demonstrate a combination of valence to carry out an urban and architectural project giving rise to a social equipment, a nursing home. A set of procedure and study were adopted for urban and architectural design for the insertion of the project on the ground. The previous study consists of knowledge from theoretical and practical analysis related to the activities of a social equipment. The existing study reports the search of the target audience for a suitable space to live or spend part of the day living with people in society, we find that the few offers to solve the existing problem. In our area of intervention we detected a lack in this area, the lack of equipment and services directed to the elderly is noted in the first analyzes. The previous study establishes some parameters the first is to intervene in urban space and integrates the population into space so that it can take better advantage of space and equipment, we cannot design a space or equipment without thinking about the surroundings, or how to enjoy the outside. Thus, we began to intervene in the urban space where we find the strength of the architectural project, but soon began to arise questions that had to be answered within that concept, we returned to study social equipment to answer our questions. With the answers of each problem solved we started to the architectural project, where we began to develop a proposal based on studies and needs existing in that parish. In the proposal we opted for a contemporary and modern architecture, always seeking to study equipment with high quality social and spatial quality, the social aspect was inserted in the project in order to create an intergenerational space of proximity of family, friends, residents and visitor, the proposal It brings this weight of uni people and avoid social barrier.

Full textAnthropogenic disturbance has imposed significant changes in riparian habitats, and is known to have negative effects on biological communities. To assess the effects of human induced disturbance on wintering bird communities, I recorded community composition, relative abundance of species, and three indicators of bird condition in relatively undisturbed and highly disturbed sites at three river systems in Sonora. There is, in general, little effect of disturbance on the composition of wintering communities, with less than 20% of the most common species having significant differences in their abundances between relatively undisturbed and highly disturbed sites. Condition indicators were similar in the two disturbance levels, but the mean heterophil/lymphocyte ratio in the blood of sampled birds showed increased levels of physiological stress in disturbed sites. A more experimental approach is needed to determine the specific cause of the stress expression in leucocytes.
Modification of natural flooding regimes has modified riparian areas, as has been the case in the Colorado River Delta. I present a summary of the changes experienced by riparian systems and some of the measures implemented for riparian restoration in the southwestern United States, and then I compare the scenario with that in central Sonora, where some of the same stressors exist on riparian systems, but where traditional management practices have also mitigated some of the negative consequences of flow control along mid-sized river systems.

Full textDead wood is a very important element of forest ecosystems. The reduction of dead wood in production forests has created major problems for several dead wood dependent species. This study was made to provide a better understanding of the factors that affect presence and coverage area of the two dead wood dependent species Anastrophyllum hellerianum and Dicranum flagellare. The coverage area of these species on logs was examined in relation to the factors: species of the log, diameter, length, degree of decomposition, number of logs close to the one examined, sun exposure, ground contact and soil moisture. The key finding of the study was that diameter/available area, degree of decomposition and sun exposure was the most important factors that affected the two species. The coverage area and the probability of presence of the species increased with increased log diameter and extent of decomposition, but decreased with sun exposure. Other findings were that A. hellerianum preferred logs of decomposition stage 5. The distribution of decayed wood differed greatly in the studied forests. In the primeval forest there were many logs, of many different diameters and decay stages. In the production forest there were only a few logs, none of larger diameters and most of them less decayed. As a conclusion the amount of dead wood in production forests seem too small for the two studied species to occur. Therefore, a larger amount of dead wood in production forests or sufficiently large areas of protected forests are needed to preserve these species.
