Abstract:

L’étude des effets des nuisances sonores sur la biodiversité progresse lentement mais sûrement. Dans la foulée d’autres trames écologiques, le concept émergent de « trame blanche » vise à identifier les zones d’un territoire où la pollution sonore doit être contenue ou réduite en priorité afin de permettre aux espèces d’accomplir la totalité de leur cycle de vie. Grâce à la progression des connaissances scientifiques et à l’accès à certaines données de mesures du bruit, il devient désormais possible de modéliser l’impact des nuisances sonores sur les dynamiques démographiques et les déplacements de populations d’espèces à l’échelle d’un paysage. L’intégration du bruit comme facteur de pression repose sur l’existence d’une relation entre le niveau de puissance sonore et la qualité des milieux, à la fois en tant que patchs d’habitats potentiels et espaces de déplacements des espèces. Cet article présente en particulier la démarche mise en œuvre dans le cadre de l’évaluation des impacts de la pollution sonore d’une ligne de métro sur neuf espèces.

Abstract:

Noise, noise pollution in Algeria :Linguistic and societal aspect The sound as a noise nuisance usually induces a public health issue among deaf specialists because it affects the health of the ears. One of the most well-known consequences of hearing discomfort, or even deafness, is the difficulty of communication in society. Similarly, the impact on language, in general, and on cognitive and linguistic functions, in particular, can disrupt the level of performance of essential learning such as reading and writing by confusing phonetically similar sounds for some children from primary school onwards, and that may become a real school health issue. To understand such a situation and analyse the impact of noise on learning, it is important to identify its occurrences and cultural representation. This article discusses various aspects of noise to unveil some language and societal implications. The results of this research showed that in Algeria, preschool programs address sensory education, and education in sounds, music, and noises. we believe that it would be important to instill in children from an early age the harmful effect of noise in involving family life which, through ignorance, causes noise pollution and creates an awareness of noise among its members. The recommendations are numerous and require more investigation, yet it is a topic that is less discussed in Algeria while it is an integral part of the daily lives of families, teachers, and learners regardless of their level of education.In this study, it is difficult for us to determine a noise culture specific to Algerian society. However, the people interviewed reported certain annoying behaviors such as speaking loudly and living daily with the noise of music, construction and slamming of doors, produced by oneself, at home, and in the neighbourhood.A research carried out within the framework of a national project by a team of linguists, didacticians, speech therapists, neurobiologists, and doctors, would encourage us to develop these first global observations in such a way as to warn Algerian society of linguistic, psychological, communication and environmental risks. and health, in the face of noise pollution.

Abstract:

Bien que plus difficiles à quantifier, les effets indirects des routes sur la faune devraient être considérés au même titre que la mortalité routière, car certaines espèces évitent les abords des routes au moins durant une partie de l’année, ce qui peut mener à une fragmentation plus ou moins permanente de leurs populations. D’autre part, on observe chez plusieurs espèces un effet de bordure suivant lequel les abords des routes constituent un habitat de qualité marginale en raison du bruit, des substances et particules projetées par le passage des véhicules, des substances utilisées pour l’entretien routier (p. ex. sels de déglaçage) ou d’autres facteurs. Les oiseaux forestiers étudiés s’avèrent sensibles à la présence de routes à circulation intense, probablement en raison de la pollution sonore, alors qu’une espèce étudiée s’est avérée relativement tolérante à la construction d’une route de gravier. Quant aux amphibiens, les juvéniles en dispersion de 3 des 5 espèces étudiées semblaient éviter la traversée de routes pavées. Les gestionnaires de l’environnement devraient planifier l’aménagement des réseaux routiers dans la perspective du paysage afin d’éviter de dégrader ou de fragmenter les habitats critiques et de créer des barrières pour les mouvements saisonniers des espèces sensibles.

Abstract:

La présente étude est une revue critique de la documentation scientifique sur les effets du bruit sur la santé mentale. Cette étude a été réalisée sur la base de la recherche de mots-clés, de l’impact factor des revues, du nombre de fois que l’article a été cité. Hinari a servi de base des données. L’analyse et la sélection des articles scientifiques nous ont permis de les regrouper en trois catégories d’études. Les études fondamentales ont dosé les taux des hormones de stress dans le plasma, les urines et la salive. Les études expérimentales ont exposé les sujets humains à la pollution sonore pour évaluer les déficits de leurs mémoire, attention et performance. Les études épidémiologiques ont évalué les déficits cognitifs chez les élèves étudiant dans des milieux bruyants et l’état de santé mentale des individus habitant aux alentours des aéroports, voies ferrées et des autoroutes. Les études fondamentales et expérimentales ont abouti à un consensus scientifique sur les effets négatifs du bruit tandis que les résultats des études épidémiologiques ne permettent pas de tirer des conclusions solides, des études ultérieures s’avèrent donc nécessaires.

Abstract:

Мета роботи – аналіз основних характеристик «життя звуку» як ви- значального метафізичного концепту в музиці Каї Сааріахо, що відкриває шляхи до розуміння художньо-філософського смислу її творів. Методологія дослідження спирається на системно-аналітичний, концептологічний та метафізичний методи, які відповідають актуальному на початку тре- тього тисячоліття спрямуванню музичної науки до міждисциплінарного аналізу. Наукову новизну визначає включення в український музикознавчий науковий дискурс засадничих положень композиторських стратегій та звукової практики видатної представниці сучасної культури Каї Саарі- ахо. Висновки. Концепт «життя звуку» створює передумови розуміння генерального напряму пошуку композиторів кінця ХХ – перших десятиліть XXI століття у сфері можливості представляти слухачеві «невидимий світ сутнісного». Він включає музичний доробок Каї Сааріахо у сферу он- тологічних запитань сучасної людини. Концепт «життя звуку» відкри- вається в кожному творі композиторки в неповторних проєкціях через розгортання музичної тканини твору від «серця звуку» (К. Сааріахо) до космічної безмірності його «метафізичних обертонів». Його дослідження проявляє визначальні риси духовного життя сучасної людини, що змушена існувати в багатовимірному музичному універсумі і страждає від «забруд- нення звукового середовища» (К. Сааріахо, “la pollution sonore”). Тотальна невизначеність координат, за якими можливе формування звукового світу у відповідності до запитів сьогодення, підсилює гостру актуальність пошуку маркерів для створення «чистого» простору кому- нікації, в якому б людина почула голоси цього світу (світла, ночі, подиху вітру, співу птахів, часового проміжку століть, діалогу артефактів тощо) неспотвореними та унікальними в їх єднанні із неповторним «я» кожного, хто віддає частину себе самого в побудову комунікаційного «моста». Як у справжньому житті, де зустрічається початок і кінець певної людської долі, щоб врешті-решт набути позачасовий вимір і пе- рейти у містичне «ніщо», яке є «всім», у музиці Каї Сааріхо звук має власне життя і його проєкції відтворюють для уважного слухача ті вічні духовні цінності, які є далеко за межею повсякденного і дозволя- ють людині залишатися людиною.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTNoise pollution is one of the consequences of the industrial revolution. Following a change in production methods, the number of inhabitants in cities increased, which resulted that, then mostly naturally with anthropogenic biases soundscape was changing by introducing new sounds, all of mechanical, from technological innovation generated by man kind. Today, noise pollution, flooding the city, forced educational institutions to think of a sound re-education. The soundscape, proposed by musician and music educator Raymond Murray Schafer concept becomes a basic tool in this process of teaching and learning and auditory re-cognition of the world around us.RESUMENLa contaminación acústica es una de las secuelas de la revolución industrial. Al modificarse los modos de producción, el número de habitantes en las ciudades aumentó, lo que trajo como consecuencia que el paisaje sonoro, en ese entonces mayormente natural con sesgos antropogénicos, se fuese modificando debido a la introducción de nuevos sonidos, todos ellos, de tipo mecánico, provenientes de la innovación tecnológica generada por el hombre. Hoy, la contaminación auditiva que inunda la urbe, obliga a las instituciones educativas a pensar en una reeducación sonora. El paisaje sonoro, concepto propuesto por el músico y pedagogo musical Raymond Murray Schaffer, se convierte en una herramienta básica en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje y reconocimiento auditivo del mundo que nos rodea.

Abstract:

Partindo da noção de que poluição é tudo que provoque uma alteração ecológica, o excesso de barulho ou como podemos chamar, ruído é uma das poluições mais toleradas, do ponto de vista de aceitabilidade social e não de suportabilidade, pelas sociedades atuais. Apesar de ser perceptível, uma vez que num ambiente acusticamente poluído, por advento da poluição sonora, são gerados prejuízos às atividades que devem ali acontecer, a temática ainda é negligenciada. O quanto o meio pode ser afetado está ligado a sensibilidade de seus constituidores. Variáveis como frequência, intensidade e nível sonoro são também importantes quando estuda-se o impacto gerado pelas ondas sonoras. A difusão até mesmo comum de materiais acusticamente isolantes exemplifica o fato de que o ser humano sempre buscou controlar o excesso de ruído, sendo essa uma reclamação antiga. Dentre tais materiais a madeira é utilizada frequentemente para isolamento acústico. Tendo isso em vista pode-se analisar o potencial das próprias árvores como dissipadoras e amortecedoras de ondas sonoras. Práticas de arborização podem auxiliar nessa questão em comunidades escolares, bem como incentivar atividades socioambientais. O Programa Escola Verde é responsável por junto a escolas promover diferentes atividades voltadas à temática ambiental, uma dessas atividades é a arborização que dentre muitos benefícios pode, ainda, ser efetiva no combate à poluição sonora.

Abstract:

There are three astronomical observatories in Mexico working on research programs. The oldest one is located at Tonantzintla, Puebla; the largest is at San Pedro Martir, Baja California; and the youngest, not yet in full operation, at Cananea, Sonora. The one at Tonantzintla suffers, by far, the largest light pollution problems; that at San Pedro Martir has the darkest skies but is relatively close to regions of potential touristic and mining developments. In this paper we summarize the existing and potential polluting problems arising from manmade light sources near those observatories, and suggest some possible steps to be taken in order to minimize their adverse effects on astronomical observations.

Objetivo: estudiar la correspondencia entre la especialización productiva, la interdependencia sectorial y el crecimiento de la economía de Sonora entre 2003 y 2019. Metodología: se emplean medidas de contribución al crecimiento, especialización productiva y multiplicadores sectoriales de la producción para contrastar la reinterpretación de la primera ley de Kaldor propuesta por Pacheco-López en 2014. Resultados: el sector manufacturero de exportación es clave porque realiza una importante contribución al crecimiento económico de Sonora. También contribuyen el sector primario y la minería que, además, cuentan con especialización productiva e influencia intersectorial. Valor: el estudio aporta información para diseñar una política de desarrollo productivo estatal que consolide las cadenas productivas que lideran los sectores tradicionales y aprovechar las áreas de oportunidad de las ramas de exportación. Limitaciones: no se registran los efectos del comercio con otras regiones del país. Conclusión: los pilares de la economía de Sonora se encuentran en las actividades primarias, en las extractivas y en los sectores manufactureros de exportación.

Abstract:

A utilização de equipamentos nos locais de trabalho, incluindo hospitais, aumentou a poluição sonora em vários espaços, em parte devido à utilização de máquinas e eletrônicos, essenciais ao tratamento dos pacientes. Altos níveis de poluição sonora presentes em diversos ambientes, incluindo o hospitalar, podem influenciar no desenvolvimento laboral, gerando estresse e cansaço, além de intervir no desenrolar e reabilitação do paciente que está em tratamento. O objetivo deste trabalho foi mensurar os ruídos no Hospital das Clínicas (HC) da Universidade Federal do Triângulo Mineiro (UFTM) e comparar os dados com o preconizado pela Associação Brasileira de Normas Técnicas (ABNT). Foi utilizado um decibelímetro digital portátil posicionado na altura do paciente em leito. As medições foram mensais entre agosto de 2014 e março de 2015, realizadas às 14 horas; em dezembro e março ocorreram três medições, às 6h; 14h e 22h, nos setores selecionados: Corredor da Clínica Médica, Enfermaria da Ortopedia, Unidade de Terapia Intensiva neonatal, Corredor do Pronto Socorro adulto, Unidade de Terapia Intensiva adulta, Unidade de Terapia Renal. A análise dos dados foi feita de forma estatística descritiva, utilizando o programa Microsoft Office Excel® e Minitab®. Foram encontrados valores acima do preconizado em todos os ambientes analisados dentro do hospital. Nas medições das 6h, que foram realizadas em dezembro de 2014 e em março de 2015, observa-se que este período apresentou-se como o mais silencioso, porém mesmo assim, com valores acima do preconizado. Dentre os setores analisados a Clínica Médica e Unidade de Terapia Renal estão entre os setores mais barulhentos. A Enfermaria da Ortopedia, o mais silencioso, porém com pressão sonora acima dos 62dB(A). Sendo assim, é de extrema importância o planejamento e a execução de medidas que visem à redução dos ruídos no ambiente para uma melhor qualidade de vida dos funcionários e recuperação dos pacientes.

Abstract:

O presente trabalho discute os resultados do monitoramento de ruído ambiental para os anos de 2010, 2011, 2012 e 2013 realizado pela PUC Minas em Betim no interior e no entorno do campus. O objetivo é testar a hipótese de que o ruído emitido no desempenho das atividades acadêmicas no interior do campus está em conformidade com a legislação e que, portanto, o cenário de poluição sonora do entorno não está diretamente associada às atividades da instituição. Das 244 aferições realizadas nos pontos externos 144 (59%) superaram os valores de referência. Dessas 21% apresentaram níveis sonoros superiores a 65 dB(A), ou seja, acima do limite recomendado pela Organização Mundial de Saúde (OMS) como limiar ao dano à saúde. Em contra partida, todas as 162 aferições realizadas nos pontos internos apresentaram valores abaixo do valor recomendado. Durante o período letivo a quantidade de medições em desconformidade apresentou um incremento em relação ao período de férias. Os dados também mostram que os níveis de ruído apresentaram maior amplitude durante o período letivo, aumentando assim a probabilidade de ocorrências de valores acima dos 65 dB(A). O incremento no quadro de poluição sonora no entorno da universidade está associado ao inerente aumento no fluxo de veículos e pessoas durante o período letivo.Palavra-chave: Monitoramento; Poluição sonora; Universidade; Betim.AbstractNoise monitoring had been performed inside and around PUC Minas Betim in order to test the hypothesys that surrounding noise pollution is not associated with academic activities. 144 (59%) of 244 external measurements exceeded legal benchmark values, in which 21% also exceeded World Health Organization 65 dB(A) threshold for health damage. On the other hand, 162 internal measurements showed results below the recommended limit. Although this pollution scenario is recurrent, the amount of non-conform measurements and noise amplitude rise during class times when compared to vacation periods. This rising is not however due the activities performed inside the campus but the associated increment on people and vehicles traffic around the university during class time.Keyword: Monitoring; Noise pollution; University; Betim.

Abstract:

Groundwater metal pollution is a major concern in mining areas. This study proposes a new addition to the DRASTIC method (DRASTIC+Lu) to assess groundwater vulnerability to metal pollution in mining areas by combining remote sensing (to locate metal pollution sources) and the DRASTIC index. The study was performed in a mining area in northwestern Mexico showing current and historical mining activities. The proposed methodology allowed locating known and unknown sources of metal pollution (mining tailings, active/inactive mines, and areas with exposed natural geochemical anomalies). Generally, the addition of the land use (Lu) parameter causes not only a decrease in vulnerability but also highlights very high vulnerable areas and identifies new ones in the vicinity of metal pollution sources. This result is relevant to focus stewardship efforts in very high vulnerable areas. Results allowed to identify the need to implement protection and restauration measures in the Sonora river channel and its vicinity. The proposed method could be implemented in other mining areas around the world –at a low cost– to locate unknown metal pollution sources and clearly identify very high vulnerable areas that play a key role in the protection of groundwater resources.

Abstract:

Abstract Vehicular traffic is pointed out as a major source of urban noise pollution today. In this paper, we evaluated the precision of a new probabilistic model for urban traffic noise analyses. The proposed model adopts real sound signals and the Monte Carlo method in simulations. Probability distributions of traffic variables were obtained in-situ on two urban roads. The acoustic signals and corresponding energies of single pass-by of vehicles were obtained usingsound signal recordings on test tracks under free-field condition. The model simulates vehicular traffic noise on urban roads in free or in trafficlight controlled flow and considers the influence of bus stops.The proposed model calculates different acoustic descriptors, such as Statistical sound levels (LA10 and LA90), Equivalent continuous sound level (LAeq), Trafficnoise index (TNI) and Noise pollution level (LNP). Furthermore, it allowsthe listening of simulated noise. The experimental results indicate that theproposed model is reliable and accurate for vehicular traffic noise prediction.

Abstract:

L’objectif de cet article est d’examiner les impacts de l’organisation de la fête des bijoux sur la localité d’Ath-Yenni en Algérie. Pour ce faire, des entretiens qualitatifs ont été conduits auprès de deux responsables organisateurs, de seize artisans-bijoutiers et de soixante citoyens. Nos résultats montrent que l’organisation de la fête des bijoux permet une amélioration de l’activité des opérateurs et engendre des retombées positives pour les villageois (renforcement des liens sociaux, création d’emplois…).

Abstract:

O presente artigo versa sobre o processo de britagem da empresa Britamix no município de Queimadas – PB e a poluição sonora inerente ao mesmo processo. As rochas britadas constituem um dos principais agregados minerais, sendo imprescindíveis na construção civil. Portanto, o processo para obtenção dos agregados supracitados pode gerar ruídos indesejáveis no interior e fora da área da empresa de produção de agregados minerais. O objetivo desta pesquisa é analisar os níveis de ruído ambiental decorrentes do processo de britagem, provocados pela empresa Britamix Britamentos Lmtd, e averiguar se os mesmos estão em consonância com a Legislação Ambiental Brasileira e Internacional. O método utilizado lançou mão de um aparelho decibelimétrico para fazer as medições quanto aos níveis de poluição sonora ou pressão acústica. A presente pesquisa, portanto, é de caráter quantitativo e de campo. Os resultados obtidos revelaram que, ao serem realizadas as medições decibelimétricas, a empresa em estudo estar dentro dos padrões estabelecidos pela NBR 10.151da ABNT e pela OMS no que se refere às medições feitas no pátio da empresa e com a fonte poluidora desativada, ou seja, o Ruído Ambiente (RA). Já as medições realizadas ao lado do maquinário pesado, o nível de poluição sonora ultrapassou os limites estabelecidos pela NBR 10.151 da ABNT, ainda que segundo recomendações da OMS esteja dentro dos padrões estabelecidos. Palavras-chave: Processo de Britagem, Poluição Sonora, Legislação Ambiental. ABSTRACT This article deals with the crushing process of Britamix company in the municipality of Fires/ PB and noise inherent to the same process. The crushed rocks are a major mineral aggregates, which is indispensable in construction. Therefore, the process for obtaining the aforementioned aggregates can generate undesirable noise inside and outside the area of the mineral aggregates production company. The objective of this research is to analyze the levels of environmental noise arising from the crushing process, caused by the company Britamix stampings Lmtd, and whether the accounting policies are in accord with the Brazilian and International Environmental Law. The method made use of a decibelimetric device to take measurements on the levels of noise or sound pressure. This research, therefore, is of quantitative character and field. The results showed that, when held the decibelimetrics measurements, the company under investigation be within the standards set by the NBR 10.151da ABNT and WHO with regard to the measurements made at the company's yard and the pollution source disabled, in order words, the Environmental Noise (RA). Since the measurements beside the heavy machinery, the level of noise exceeded the limits set by the NBR 10151 of ABNT, although according to WHO recommendations is within the established standards. Keywords: Process Crushing, Noise Pollution, Environmental Law.

Abstract:

Biomonitoring of atmospheric pollution is an increasingly accepted practice. However, most existing biomonitors are usually epiphytic species from mesic environments. This work assessed the suitability of buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris), an invasive C4 grass in northwestern Mexico, as a biomonitor, by means of the spatial distribution of the carbon and nitrogen content and isotopic signatures for grass samples collected from urban, agricultural, and natural areas throughout the state of Sonora. We found the highest tissue carbon content of 45.6% (on a dry weight basis) and highest nitrogen content of 3.31% for buffelgrass from the Yaqui Valley. We also found the lowest δ13C of −15.9‰, and the highest δ15N of 16.7‰ in the same region. In contrast, the lowest carbon and nitrogen content of 39.4 and 1.49% were found for Bahía de Kino and Río Sonora mountains, respectively. The lowest δ15N of 2.18‰ and the highest δ13C of −13.7‰ were measured for two remote locations. These results show the influence that pollutant emissions, including agriculture and transportation, have on elemental and isotopic composition of vegetation. Buffelgrass is most adequate for tracking carbon and nitrogen emissions in arid environments and for determining alterations on nitrogen soil reactions, as a first approximation for saturation.

Abstract:

Esse trabalho tem como objetivo investigar o impacto causado na saúde física e mental do trabalhador pelo meio ambiente artificial, influenciado por fatores como poluição sonora, poluição atmosférica, poluição hídrica, assédio moral, confinamento, esforços repetitivos, e buscar formas de mitigação desses fatores que possam, ao desequilibrar o meio ambiente, contribuir para o desenvolvimento de várias doenças, já estudadas e publicadas em diversos artigos científicos. As relações entre saúde/doença mental e vulnerabilidade social são muito complexas e exigem uma série de reflexões e contextualizações para ser compreendidas. O fato é que, nas últimas décadas, o número de pessoas expostas a acontecimentos traumáticos aumentou de maneira significativa à medida que várias formas de violência vêm engolfando as populações civis no mundo inteiro, o que constitui um ônus adicional persistente que conduz a doenças, mortes e invalidez. This paper aims to investigate the impact on the physical and mental health of workers by the artificial environment, influenced by factors such as noise pollution, air pollution, water pollution, bullying, confinement, repetitive efforts, and seek ways to mitigate these factors can, by unbalancing the environment, contribute to the development of various diseases, already studied and published in several scientific articles. The relationships between health/mental illness and social vulnerability are very complex and require a series of reflections and contextualizations to be understood. The fact is that, in recent decades, the number of people exposed to traumatic events has increased significantly as various forms of violence engulf civilian populations worldwide, thus contributing to a persistent additional burden of disease, death and disability.

Abstract:

The possible effects on marine mammals and other marine organisms of sound from human (anthropogenic) sources have become subjects of increasing concern and controversy. In the late 1970s and 1980s, the sources of principal concern were seismic profiling, drilling, and related activities associated with offshore oil and gas development. In the last decade, much of the focus has shifted to activities conducted or supported by the U.S. Navy, most notably the Acoustic Thermometry of Ocean Climate Program, ship-shock tests, development and proposed use of low frequency active sonar to detect new classes of quiet submarines, and the stranding of beaked whales and other cetaceans in the Bahamas in March 2000 coincident with antisubmarine exercises involving use of mid-frequency tactical sonars. There has been substantial controversy concerning the possible impacts of these activities, and a number of law suits seeking to stop or restrict them. The Navy believes that the concerns are unwarranted and that the law suits have impeded its ability to meet its national defense responsibilities. Congress agreed and in the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2004 (Public Law 108-87) made two substantial changes to the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA): (1) it authorized the Secretary of Defense to exempt military readiness activities from the provisions of the MMPA governing the incidental taking of marine mammals; and (2) it added to the Act separate definitions of harassment to apply to such activities. These and other proposed changes to the MMPA could undermine the unique, precautionary or risk-averse philosophy of the Act. An alternative, two-step approach, advocated in this paper, would be to (a) revise the definition of harassment to clearly differentiate types and levels of behavioral disturbance likely to have, and not to have, biologically significant effects; and (b) add a general authorization for all incidental taking expected to have biologically insignificant effects, similar to the general authorization for marine mammal research expected to have biologically insignificant effects added to the MMPA in 1994.

Abstract:

Mining effluents were found to be the main source of pollution by heavy metals of the surface water in the San Pedro River in Sonora, Mexico. The overall objective of this study was to determine the biosorption of Zn, Cu, Mn, and Fe with yeasts isolated from San Pedro River in a continuous system. The tests conducted in two reactors packed with zeolite connected in series. The first reactor was inoculated mixing two yeasts species, and the effluent of the first reactor was fed to second reactor. Subsequently, the first reactor was fed with contaminated water of San Pedro River and effluent from this was the second reactor influent. After 40 days of the experiment a reduction of 81.5% zinc, 76.5% copper, manganese 95.5%, and 99.8% of iron was obtained. These results show that the selected yeasts are capable of biosorbing zinc, copper, manganese, and iron under these conditions.

Abstract:

Les études épidémiologiques sont nombreuses aujourd’hui à révéler l’association entre des facteurs d’exposition environnementale et des problèmes de santé, aigus comme chroniques, survenant à différents stades de la vie. Citons, par exemple, l’exposition à la pollution de l’air associée à de nombreuses infections respiratoires, maladies cardiovasculaires et à certaines issues défavorables de la grossesse. L’exposition aux nuisances sonores est également reconnue comme pouvant augmenter le risque de maladies cardiovasculaires et perturber la qualité du sommeil. Inversement, l’accès à certaines ressources et leur disponibilité, comme les parcs, les aires de jeux, ou les espaces verts, sont associés à un meilleur état de santé, de bien-être physique et psychique et à des comportements favorables à la santé. Dans cette Synthèse, nous nous intéresserons plus particulièrement à l’exposome dit « urbain », défini par Robinson et al. comme l’ensemble des éléments de l’environnement urbain favorables et défavorables à la santé, et ce, dès la vie in utero [1].

Abstract:

AbstractBuffelgrass is a non-indigenous, invasive, C4 grass that was introduced throughout much of southern Texas, the Southwestern United States, and northern and central Mexico to improve degraded rangelands. The successful introduction and spread of buffelgrass follows a trajectory similar to that of other invasive C4 grasses in arid and semiarid ecosystems. In the Plains of Sonora of the Sonoran Desert (Mexico) buffelgrass is favored by widespread removal of native vegetation and seeding, but, why, following initial introduction, the species persists remains unclear. In this study, we addressed two concerns associated with buffelgrass invasion in the Plains of Sonora. We hypothesized that under arid rangeland conditions, buffelgrass outcompetes native herbaceous species (1) through rapid acquisition of limiting nutrients (here assumed to be nitrogen) and (2) under conditions with high nitrogen input. In summer 2002, a 2 by 2 factorial experiment was established with buffelgrass removal and nitrogen addition in both intact desert and converted buffelgrass grassland habitats. In winter 2003, we found that, regardless of habitat type, buffelgrass removal had a positive effect on abundance, biomass, and richness of native herbaceous species while addition of nitrogen, as urea (at 50 kg N ha−1yr−1 or 9.18 lbs N ac−1yr−1), and disturbance resulted in reduction in abundance and biomass. Nitrogen addition did not negatively alter buffelgrass cover. Nitrogen addition had the expected result of increasing initial, peak and total NO3 and NH4 mineralization with the exception of NO3 measures in intact desert. Removal of buffelgrass did not result in significant increases in soil NO3 or NH4 with the exception of peak NH4 in intact desert. Results of this study support observations that native herbaceous species are displaced by buffelgrass invasion and that nitrogen pollution will likely favor buffelgrass over the native herbaceous species in this ecosystem.
