In today's world, as the volume of business and consumer data continues to grow at an unprecedented pace, there is increasing desire to utilize that data in new and innovative and ways to provide insight and improve decision making. For businesses, data is being generated from transactions, machine logs, digital media and feeds from sensors and wireless devices at a volume and velocity not seen before. When combined with data from external sources such as partners, or from the Internet from blogs, social networking sites, YouTube, Facebook and Twitter, it has the capability to provide organizations with new insight, a more holistic picture of customer and stakeholder behavior and new ways of gaining competitive advantage. Consumers are being presented with applications of increasing analytical sophistication, leading to growing comfort in making fact-based decisions. New devices will help monitor energy usage within the home and provide insight on the optimal times to schedule devices and run household appliances. As data volumes continue to grow, systems will need to automate the uncovering of patterns and trends in data if they are to scale. Business Intelligence (BI) software, which has traditionally been used to gain insight from data, will need to evolve and new capabilities developed to support these significant changes. Areas of growth and opportunities for new innovation within the BI software industry will be explored that will enable stakeholders to take full advantage of this new and exciting opportunity.

Повний текст джерелаENGLISH ABSTRACT: The importance of and the need for metropolitan planning and government structures in the development of cities have become evident over the last century. Internationally, the approach to metro governance has evolved from informal metro management structures into, for example the more formalised two-tier or single tier systems of London and Toronto. The recent changes in these systems indicate that there is not one system that is universally accepted as the best. South Africa has not escaped the metropolitan development process and the resulting problems that went hand in hand with this. The first form of metropolitan planning in South Africa occurred in 1940, with the inception of the Joint Planning Committees. Later, in 1986 the institution of Regional Services Councils served as the first form of metropolitan governance. In 1995 the first democratic Local Government elections hailed the entry into democratic metropolitan government structures. With the proclamation of six new metropolitan areas South African metropolitan governments adopted the two-tier metropolitan system. Since 1995 South African local government structures have undergone major transformations. Proponents of the current two-tier system failed to anticipate the pressures of Central Government for change to the one tier, megacity or unicity model. Critics of the government's plans argued strongly for the retention of the current two-tier model and for minimal organisational change. The disruption that yet another transformation will cause, is one of the main objections. In the Cape Town and Durban Metropolitan Areas the consensus seems to be that the present two-tier system is working well and that it should be retained. In the case of Johannesburg Metropolitan Area many problems were encountered, especially the inability to redistribute local government income. The consensus there is that a unicity model will work better. Whether the unicity model is the answer to urban sustainability for all metropolitan areas of South Africa, is still a disputed fact.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die belangrikheid van en die behoefte aan metropolitaanse beplannings- en regeringstrukture in die ontwikkeling van stede het oor die afgelope eeu baie ooglopend geword. Die benaderings tot metropolitaanse bestuur in internasionale kringe het beweeg van die meer informele metropolitaanse bestuurstrukture na die meer formele een- of tweevlak stelsels van byvoorbeeld Londen Of Toronto. Die onlangse veranderinge in hierdie stelsels is 'n bewys dat daar nie een stelsel beataan wat universeel as die beste aanvaar word nie. Suid Afrika het nie die proses van metropolitaanse ontwikkeling en die gepaardgaande probleme daarvan vrygespring nie. Die eerste vorm van metropolitaanse beplanning in Suid Afrika was die instelling van die Gesamentlike Beplanningskomitees in 1940. Later in 1986 met die totstandkoming van streekdiensterade was daar vir die eerste keer sprake van 'n vorm van metropolitaanse regering. Met die eerste demokratiese verkiesing van plaaslike regeringsisteme in 1995 is ses tweevlak metropolitaanse egerings in suid Afrika ingestel. Sedert 1995 het plaaslike owerhede in Suid Afrika grootskaalse veranderinge ondergaan. Voorstanders van die huidige tweevlak stelsel het nie daarin geslaag om die druk van Nasionale Regering om te verander na 'n eenvlak, unistad of megastad sisteem, af te weer nie. Kritici van die regering se planne het hewige argumente aangebied vir die behoud van die huidige sisteem asook vir minimale organisatoriese veranderinge. Die hoof beswaar was die grootskaalse ontwrigting wat nog 'n transformasie proses sou meebring. In die Kaapse en Durbanse Metropolitaanse Gebiede is daar konsensus oor die werkbaarheid van die tweevlak stelsel en ook dat dit behoue moet bly. Johannesburg Metropolitaanse Area daarenteen het etlike probleme ondervind, veral met die verdeling van munisipale inkomste. Daar is konsensus dat' n unistad model waarskynlik beter sal werk. Of die unistad model die antwoord is op stedelike volhoubaarheid in alle metropolitaanse gebiede in Suid Afrika, is steeds 'n debatteerbare punt.

Повний текст джерелаIn the tropics, the surfaces covered with secondary forests are rapidly increasing due to the high deforestation rates. Forest succession is a slow process, and continuous data on vegetation change are scarce. To study this change, the chronosequence approach has been used but in order to implement it, the knowledge of the secondary forest ages is necessary; however, this information is difficult and/or expensive to gather. Yet, a posteriori reconstruction of individual development in emblematic tropical pioneer trees could be helpful to determine the age of a tree and the moment of individual establishment after a perturbation. In this study, we propose a straightforward and fast method to estimate the age of secondary forests based on the individuals' age estimation of Cecropia, one of the most important pioneer genera of the Neotropics. The objectives of this dissertation were: i) to characterize the developmental pattern of C. Sciadophylla, in order to establish a simple protocol to determine the age of C. Sciadophylla individuals, ii) to determine how the growth pattern of C. Sciadophylla, varies throughout the year and to characterize the stability of this pattern across the species distribution range, iii) to determine the flowering frequencies of Cecropia species and to identify the relationship between flowering events and climate seasonality over the genus geographical range, and finally, iv) to test the possibility of use the Cecropia growth pattern as a biological clock to date secondary forests in the Neotropics. I found a high annual periodicity in flowering and branching processes, and an alternation of long and short nodes in C. Sciadophylla populations. Also, I found that Cecropia inferred ages were highly correlated with real perturbation ages in all cases (i. E. Slash and burn agricultural sites, a forestry road, and mining sites). In addition, I propose 21 Cecropia species that show annual flowering patterns and that are distributed over the geographical range of the genus, as potential chronometer species. For the first time it is shown that Cecropia genus is a promising and very precise tool for dating disturbances and studying secondary forest dynamics in the Neotropics

Resumo: Nos anos 2000, o Brasil apresentou sinais de recuperação econômica, com geração de empregos e crescimento da renda nacional. A partir de 2004, a expansão do crédito e do consumo das famílias, o aumento das exportações, decorrente do movimento favorável do crescimento internacional (até a crise financeira de 2008/09), e a reativação do investimento produtivo e na infraestrutura econômica e social permitiram que o País mantivesse um ritmo sustentado de crescimento do PIB. Nesse contexto de retomada do crescimento, em que o mercado interno registrou um peso relativamente maior do que o do mercado externo, observou-se a reativação do dinamismo da economia das metrópoles, que apresentam estruturas produtivas e ocupacionais de maior complexidade e diversidade, além de terem suportado um enorme passivo socioeconômico, nos anos de 1990, expresso, em grande medida, por elevadas taxas de desemprego aberto. A forte redução do desemprego, a ampliação da geração de empregos, sobretudo dos formais, o crescimento médio da renda do trabalho e seu consequente efeito sobre a redução das desigualdades de renda entre os espaços metropolitanos e não metropolitanos constituem as principais características do mercado de trabalho brasileiro no período de 2004-2008. Contudo, ainda é cedo para falar-se em reestruturação do mercado de trabalho nacional. É preciso avançar nesse cenário, nos próximos anos. Por ora, estão claras as limitações da análise, enfocando apenas as questões do emprego e da renda, para o entendimento geral da problemática metropolitana, sem, todavia, menosprezar a importância da melhoria recente dos aspectos do mercado de trabalho, aqui analisados
Abstract: In the 2000's, Brazil showed signs of economic recovery with job creation and growth of national income. Since 2004, the expansion of credit, family consumption, and exports due to favorable international growth (until the financial crisis of 2008/09), as well as the recovery on productive investments allowed the country to maintain a steady pace of GDP growth. In this context, with a bigger importance of the domestic market, there was also a recovery on the metropolitan regions, which exhibit productive and occupational structures of higher complexity and diversity, besides having supported a huge socioeconomic liability in the 1990's, due to high unemployment rates. The decline in unemployment, the expansion of job creation, especially on formal labor, the growth of labor income and its subsequent effect on the reduction of income inequalities between metropolitan and non-metropolitan areas are the main characteristics of the Brazilian labor market evolution in the 2004-2008 period. However, it is still too early to speak of a restructured the national labor market. It's imperative to advance in this way for the coming years. For now, the limitations of the analysis are clear; especially by focusing only on issues of employment and income while understanding the metropolitan question, but without underestimating the importance of the recent improvement in this matter

Повний текст джерелаENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study considers the possibility of using special management areas at metropolitan level as a measure to control urban sprawl in South Africa, and specifically in the greater Cape Town area. Important issues included in the study are: international and local measures currently and previously used, relevant South African legislation that support urban edge protection, economic and ethical theories regarding urban edge protection, the measures currently implemented in Stellenbosch, an examination of special management areas and recommendations. International attempts in curbing urban sprawl dates back to post-Industrial Revolution Europe (1800s). British and American measures are compared, mostly differing in the level of public support of sustainable development. Local attempts have been limited and have not been implemented at the scale of international measures. Recently developed policies such as the Metropolitan Spatial Development Framework (1996) and the Bioregional Planning Framework (2000) are more directly focussed on sustainable development than previous policies (e.g. guide plans and structure plans) have been. The Metropolitan Spatial Development Framework proposes the demarcation of urban edges in the Cape Metropolitan Region, while the Bioregional Planning Framework is intent on dividing the Western Cape Province into bioregions. The Bioregional Planning Framework originated the use of special management areas to control development in rural (agricultural and natural) areas. The idea of this study is to measure the feasibility of using special management areas at metropolitan level, in conjunction with both the Metropolitan Spatial Development Framework and the Bioregional Planning Framework, to protect the urban edge. This study concludes by disproving its hypothesis: special management areas have limited applicability as a general urban edge control measure at metropolitan level.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie oorweeg die moontlike gebruik van spesiale bestuursareas in Suid-Afrika, en spesifiek in die groter Kaapstad gebied as maatreël vir die bekamping van stadskruip. Belangrike kwessies wat in hierdie studie ingesluit word is: internasionale en plaaslike maatreëls wat tans en in die verlede gebruik is om stadsgrense the beskerm, relevante Suid- Afrikaanse wetgewing wat die beskerming van stadsgrense ondersteun, toepaslike ekonomiese en etiese teorieë, maatreëls wat tans deur Stellenbosch geïmplementeer word, 'n ondersoek na spesiale bestuursareas, en voorstelle vir toekomstige beleid. Internasionale pogings om stadskruip te bekamp dateer uit die post-Industriële Revolusie era in Europa (1800s). Britse en Amerikaanse maatreëls is vergelyk. Die mees merkbare verskil tussen dié twee lande lê in die vlak van openbare steun vir volhoubare ontwikkeling. Die omvang van plaaslike pogings was in die verlede beperk tot gids- en struktuurplanne, wat nie veel beskerming aan die rand van die stad gebied het nie. Beleide wat onlangs ontwikkel is (die Metropolitaanse Ruimtelike Ontwikkelingsraamwerk en die Biostreekbeplanningsraamwerk) fokus meer direk op volhoubare ontwikkeling as hul voorgangers. Die Metropolitaanse Ruimtelike Ontwikkelingsraamwerk (1996) stel die afbakening van stadsgrense voor, terwyl die Biostreekbeplanningsraamwerk (2000) voorstel dat die Wes- Kaapse Provinsie in biostreke verdeel word. Die Biostreekbeplanningsraamwerk het oorspronklik die gebruik van spesiale bestuursareas voorgestel om ontwikkeling in landelike (landbou en natuurlike) gebiede te beheer. Die idee van hierdie studie is om die uitvoerbaarheid van die gebruik van spesiale bestuursareas op metropolitaanse vlak, saam met die Metropolitaanse Ruimtelike Ontwikkelingsraamwerk en die Biostreekbeplanningsraamwerk, te bepaal. Hierdie studie sluit af deur die hipotese verkeerd te bewys: spesiale bestuursareas het beperkte toepaslikheid as algemene stadsgrens beheermaatreëlop metropolitaanse vlak.

Повний текст джерелаENGLISH ABSTRACT: A thesis undertaken to quantify genotype-by-environment interaction within Eucalyptus grandis clones growing in the eastern portion of South Africa. Thirty one sites were selected to represent the "traditional" E. grandis growing areas of South Africa. Eleven common macro- site variables and twelve common micro- site soil variables were recorded at each site. Twenty seven E. grandis clones and four E. grandis hybrid clones were then evaluated over these 31 sites. An incomplete latin square design was used to evaluate the 31 test clones, and five E. grandis controls were incorporated into the trial design to link the 31 sites. Volume production, stem form, stem defects and survival were assessed at two and five years, as well as the disease infestation of three stem cankers at five years. The analytical methods which were used to evaluate and quantify the GEl portion of the study are the analysis of variance (ANOV A), correlation analysis, and joint regression analysis (IRA) together with the analysis of co-variance (ACOV AR). The growth-site association for volume production, stem form and Endothia disease infestation were investigated using factor analysis (FA), and equations derived for the species and for the individual clones using a stepwise multiple regression approach. GEl, as evaluated through JRA, revealed that an increase in site productivity lead to a positive linear response in productivity on a clonal level, and that there was a diverging or fanning pattern among the regression lines of the clones. This tendency was also observed for both the stem form and the Endothia infestation. Hence, no significant changes in the rankings of the clones were found, and only relevant differences between the clones were found to change significantly. Juvenile-mature genetic correlations for volume production and the stem form showed moderate (rg = 0,66 and rg = 0,70) correlations between the two and the five year assessments. On a species level, rainfall was the main environmental factor responsible for volume production, while latitude was the main influence on stem form and Endothia infestation. On an individual clone basis, some micro-site soil factor interaction within the clones was found for the growth-site response models. Keywords: Eucalyptus grandis, genotype environment interaction, clones, site factors, growth-site response, ANOV A, ACOV AR, GEl, FA, JRA,
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: 'n Studie is ondemeem om die genotipe-omgewingsinteraksie van Eucalyptus grandis klone, wat in die oostelike deel van Suid-Afrika groei, te kwantifiseer. Eenen- dertig groeiplekke is geselekteer om die "tradisionele" E. grandis groeiplekke in Suid-Afrika te verteenwoordig. Elf gemeenskaplike makro-groeiplek veranderlikes en twaalf gemeenskaplike mikro-groeiplek veranderlikes is by elk van die groei areas opgeteken. Sewe-en-twintig E. grandis klone en vier E. grandis basterklone is daama oor hierdie 31 groeiplekke geevalueer. 'n Onvolledige Latynse roosterontwerp is gebruik om die 31 toetsklone te evalueer en vyf kontroles is gebruik om die groeiplekke gemeenskaplik te verbind. Volume produksie, stamvorm, stamdefekte en oorlewing is op twee- en vyfjarige ouderdomme geevalueer terwyl besmetting met drie stamkankers op vyf jaar beoordeel is. Die analitiese metodes wat gebruik was om genotipeomgewingsinteraksie te evalueer en te kwantifiseer is die variansie analise (ANOYA), korrelasie analise, en gesamentlike regressie analise (JRA) tesame met ko-variansie analise (ACOY AR). Die groeiplek assosiasie vir volume produksie, stamvorm en Endothia besmetting is ondersoek deur gebruik te maak van faktor analise (FA), en vergelykings is verkry vir die spesies en individuele klone deur gebruik van 'n stapsgewyse meervoudige regressie benadering. Genotipe-omgewingsinteraksie, soos geevalueer deur JRA, wys dat 'n toename in groeiplek produktiwiteit lei tot 'n positiewe lineere reaksie in produktiwiteit op klonale vlak en dat daar 'n divergerende patroon tussen die regressielyne van die klone is. Hierdie tendens is ook vir beide die stamvorm en Endothia besmetting waargeneem. Gevolglik is nie-beduidende veranderings in die rangorde van die klone gevind en slegs reletiewe verskille tussen klone is gevind. Onvolwasse-volwasse genetiese korrelasies vir volume produksie en stamvorm toon matige korrelasies (rg =0.66 en rg =0.70) tussen die twee- en vyfjaar metings. Op 'n spesiesvlak was reenval die oorheersende omgewingsfaktor verantwoordelik vir volume produksie terwyl die breedtegraad ligging stamvorm en Endothia besmetting bemvloed het. Op individuele kloonvlak het sommige mikro-groeiplek interaksie binne klone bygedra tot die groei en groeiplek reaksie modelle.

Повний текст джерелаIn Mediterranean semiarid zones of Southeast Spain, limited and irregular rainfalls and a long and dry summer periods have contributed drastically to the acceleration of soil degradation processes. Environmental changes as a consequence of loss of natural plant cover are often accompanied by the physical and chemical soil properties degeneration, and by a loss or reduction of microbial activity. It is a corroborated fact that the proper functioning and stability of terrestrial ecosystems depends, to a large extent, of the diversity and composition of their vegetal cover. However, the ecological mechanisms that adjust and maintain the peculiar diversity of plant species in an ecosystem throughout the time are only known in a fragmentary way. Nowadays, it is permissible to think that the soil microbiota diversity and activity constitute the basis of one of the mechanisms that influences on soil preservation, on the development and maintenance of the vegetal cover and, consequently, on the ecosystem stability and functioning. The main objective in this Thesis was to evaluate, in degraded areas, the effectiveness of diverse plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) strains and the addition of an organic waste on plant performance and on the soil quality properties, as well as to verify the efficacy of some actinobacteria strains as PGPR, previously isolated from different soils of Murcia. So, five different assays were developed: three field experiments involved the use of different organic amendments and PGPR strains; a fourth assay based on the isolation of different actinobacterial strains from the rhizosphere of an autochthonous shrub, that occurs naturally in two distinct sites of Murcia, Rhamnus lycioides L. and a fifth and last experiment focused on the verification as PGPR of the previously isolated actinobacteria strains as well as the study of the relative incidence of both the strain origin and the characteristics of soil subjected to plantation. In the entire field assays it was evaluated the plants growth, nutrients uptake and the biochemical and/or physiological responses of the plants. The physical, physico-chemical and biological soil properties were also determined. With regard to the experiment focused to the actinobacteria isolation from rhizosphere soil, diverse techniques were carried out allowing isolating and purifying different strains as well as to characterise and identify them. The main results obtained in this Thesis can be summarised as follows: in the assays developed under field conditions, the assayed PGPR satisfactory promoted the plant growth, the nutrients uptake and the tolerance to water stress. In the first assay, it was tested the addition of a mixture of two immobilised PGPR in clay pellets (Azospirillum brasilense and Pantoea dispersa) as microbial inoculant and olive mill residue as organic amendment on the target plant Cistus albidus L., it was observed an additive effect in the combined treatment consisting of the microbial inoculation and the organic amendment applied jointly, allowing to enhance biochemical and microbiological soil properties. In the second field experiment, developed by using the same PGPR and organic residue than in the previous assay, it was determined that the most effective treatment to improve Pinus halepensis Mill. plant performance and soil conditions was the microbial inoculation. The third experiment was developed to verify the effectiveness of diverse PGPR free strains (Bacillus megaterium, Enterobacter sp., Bacillus thuringiensis and Bacillus sp.) and the application of sugar beet residue as organic amendment Lavandula dentata L. performance as target plant. The selection of the most efficient rhizobacteria strains and their combined effect with organic residue seems to be a critical point that drives the effectiveness of using these biotechnological tools in revegetation tasks. Regarding the fourth experiment, developed under laboratory conditions, the methodologies used to the actinobacteria isolation, characterisation and identification were successful. Four strains belonging to genus Streptomyces were obtained and they met the required abilities to consider them PGPR. The actinobacteria strains were tested in a fifth assay developed under field conditions being observed that the PGPR capacities were preserved. However, the strain origin and the biological fertility of plantation soil must be considered to an adequate actinobacteria strain selection to be used in restoration programs under semiarid conditions.

Повний текст джерелаThe life cycle of the common sole shows an ontogenetic shift of habitats. The larvae are marine and pelagic, the juveniles are benthic in coastal nurseries (lagoons and estuaries) whereas adults are benthic and live in marine deeper areas. Otoliths are paired calcified structures from the inner ear of teletost fish. They are metabolically inert (neither resorption nor dissolution) and they record, both the age (daily and annual increments) and the chemical and isotopic characteristics of the environment inhabited. Otoliths study provides information on the life history traits of individuals.The study of growth, chemical and isotopic otolith composition of soles from nurseries confirmed the existence of two sole stocks in the Gulf of Lions, one in the Eastern part and the other in the Western part. Low values in 13C and higher values in Ba/Ca ratio measured in Eastern sole otoliths during the larval life were associated to a high influence of the Rhône River discharge during a normal flow rate periods. Conversely, the one hundred return flood of the 2nd of December 2003 was very high and visible on otoliths from all nurseries in the Gulf of Lions. Juvenile otolith growth was higher in nurseries with low salinity (~20) and temperatures between 20 and 25°C than in more marine nurseries. 13C and Sr/Ca ratios of otoliths from Berre and Mauguio coastal lagoons were lower than those observed in Thau coastal lagoon (more marine influences on preys and water masses). These specificities of otolith compositions were used for the elaboration of reference profiles, which have been identified in adult populations of the Gulf of Lions, Marseilles and Bandol. Adult have shown an influence of the Rhône River during their larval life at 53%. They have shown a similarity with Thau chemical profile (10-56%) and Rhône profile (19-30%) during their juvenile life. However, 26-50% of fish from uncharacterised nurseries have been observed

O objetivo geral desta tese foi avaliar a conectividade entre ecossistemas costeiros e plataforma continental para a espécie L. alexandrei e estudar a utilização destas áreas em diferentes estágios do ciclo de vida para L. alexandrei e L. jocu na região costeira de PE. Para entender melhor a movimentação entre estas áreas, foram utilizados diferentes métodos combinados: (1) a estrutura etária e de tamanho de L. alexandrei foi determinada para áreas estuarinas (profundidades < 5m) e costeiras (profundidades entre 30 a 60 m) metros da plataforma continental; (2) a assinatura química de otólitos de indivíduos de L. alexandrei capturados em áreas estuarinas e costeiras foi analisada para evidenciar a variação ontogenética na permanência entre os diferentes habitats; (3) a presença em áreas estuarinas e recifes rasos adjacentes a costa em diferentes estágios do ciclo de vida foi detectada e quantificada para L. alexandrei e L. jocu através de censos visuais subaquáticos. Amostras biológicas (otólitos) de L. alexandrei foram coletadas através do acompanhamento de desembarques da pesca de Camboa em regiões estuarinas e pesca de rede e armadilhas em regiões costeiras entre o litoral dos estados de Pernambuco e Alagoas. As coletas foram realizadas durante três anos consecutivos (2010-2012). Otólitos de indivíduos juvenis e adultos foram extraídos, emblocados em resina, seccionados utilizando uma serra metalográfica e analisados inicialmente quanto à sua estrutura etária. Em uma segunda etapa, secções de otólitos foram analisadas com relação à sua assinatura química através de um espectrômetro de massa com ablação a laser. Observações subaquáticas foram realizadas em mangues (duas localidades) e recifes de coral adjacentes (três localidades) (a partir de 90 transectos de 10 x 2 m para cada localidade) durante os meses de novembro a março (2012- 13). Resultados da analise de distribuição etaria mostram que para áreas estuarinas indivíduos apresentaram idades de 0 a 4 anos, enquanto indivíduos coletados em áreas costeiras mais profundas foram mais velhos,entre 3 a 22 anos, indicando que uma mudança entre habitats ocorre aproximadamente entre idades 3 e 4. A frequência do tipo de borda ao longo de um ano utilizado para validar a deposição anual de anéis etários indica que, a formação da banda opaca ocorre no período chuvoso, entre abril e setembro. Dados de crescimento revelam que L. alexandrei possui um crescimento rápido durante os estágios iniciais de vida, atingindo em média 50% de seu tamanho assintótico com idade 2. Parâmetros da curva do modelo de crescimento de von Berlalanffy encontrados para L. alexandrei foram L∞ = 31 cm , k = 0.24, t0 = -1.26, r2 = 0.97. A taxa de mortalidade estimada para indivíduos coletados em áreas costeiras foi Z = 0.22 com sobrevivência de S = 0.78 year-1 . Para a analise microquímica dos otólitos foram medidos seis elementos: 7 Li, 24Mg, 55Mn, 59Co, 88Sr and 137Ba para indivíduos de L. Alexandrei. A analise de material recentemente depositado na borda de otólitos revelou que concentrações na razão elemento:Ca não variaram significativamente ao longo dos três anos testados. Similarmente, com exceção de dois elementos (Ba, Co), a razão elemento:Ca para indivíduos maiores habitando águas costeiras também foi estável, não apresentando diferenças para as diferentes regiões costeiras investigadas. Contrariamente, assinaturas químicas em otólitos de L. alexandrei de tamanhos similares provenientes da região estuarina e áreas costeiras foram distintas. Concentrações de Mn:Ca e Ba:Ca em otólitos foram ambos significativamente maiores para L. alexandrei coletados na região estuarina comparados a peixes coletados na região costeira adjacente, enquanto que para Sr:Ca uma tendência oposta foi observada. Dadas as diferenças pronunciadas na assinatura química entre áreas estuarina e costeiras, transectos de elemento:Ca foram construídos desde a região do núcleo até a margem em otólitos de indivíduos coletados em áreas costeiras para determinar o tempo de movimento (migração ontogenética) entre estuário e áreas costeiras. Concentrações de Mn:Ca e Ba:Ca mostraram um padrão semelhante ao esperado, com maiores concentrações para idades 1 e 2, com diminuição gradual para idades subsequentes. Este padrão sugere que espécimes de L. alexandrei começam a transição para habitats mais costeiros (e.g. menores concentrações de Mn e Ba) após a idade 2. Dados de observações subaquáticas corroboraram estes resultados, revelando que para ambas as espécies, indivíduos menores que 10 cm ocorrem exclusivamente em manguezais. Uma nítida mudança foi observada com um aumento de densidades para indivíduos acima de 10 cm em áreas recifais adjacentes. Para L. alexandrei a ocorrência de pos-assentantes, juvenis e subadultos foi registrada em manguezais enquanto que em recifes adjacentes apenas subadultos e adultos foram registrados. Padrão semelhante foi observado para L. jocu com individuos pos-assentantes, juvenis e subadultos em manguezais e juvenis e subadultos habitando recifes rasos adjacentes. Informações obtidas nesta Tese permitiram uma melhor compreensão dos padrões de crescimento e estrutura etária de L. alexandrei. Resultados sugerem ainda a movimentação ontogenética de L. alexandrei entre habitas costeiros e regiões costeiras mais profundas e permitem uma melhor compreensão da utilização de habitats costeiros em estágios iniciais de vida para as espécies de L. alexandrei e L. jocu.
Current objective of this thesis was to evaluate the connectivity among a shallow nursery area and deeper coastal ecossystems for L. alexandrei, and study utilization of such habitats in different life stages for L. alexandrei and L. jocu in the coastal areas of Pernambuco. In order to better understand movement between these areas, combined methods were applied: (1) initially age structure and size of L. alexandrei individuals were determined between estuarine (depths < 5 m) and deeper coastal areas (depths between 30 and 60 m); (2) otoliths microquimistry of L. alexandrei caught in estuarine and coastal areas were tested to evidence possible movement between these areas; (3) the utilization of mangroves and adjacent shallow reef areas in different life stages were studied through underwater visual census for L. alexandrei and L. jocu. Biological samples (otoliths) of L. alexandrei were collected through fishing landings of corral fisheries in estuarine areas and guillnets and traps for coastal areas between Pernambuco and Alagoas States. Data were collected during three consecutive years (2010- 2012). Otoliths of both juvenile and adult individuals were extracted, embedded in resin, sectioned with a low speed saw, then age structure were determined. In a second step, chemical concentrations of trace elements were analyzed in otolith sections using a laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer. Underwater observations (Total 90 transects of 10 x 2 m for each of the five locations) were performed along November to March (2012-13). Results show that inshore mangroves were comprised of individuals 0 to 4 years (mean: 2) while individuals in deeper reef environments were older (range: 3 to 22; mean: 8), indicating that an ontogenetic shift occurs at approximately age 3 or 4. Edge analysis was used to validate the annual deposition in the otoliths suggesting opaque growth rings were formed in the wet season between April and September. Growth data revealed that L. alexandrei display a faster growth in early life stages, reaching approximately 50% of its asymptotic size at age 2. Age at length data were used to predict growth rates of L. alexandrei using the von Bertalanffy growth model from where the following parameters were calculated: L∞ = 31 cm , k = 0.24, t0 = -1.26, r2 = 0.97. Mortality rates were estimated for coastal habitats, with Z = 0.22 and S = 0.78 year-1 . Concentrations of six trace elements were measure (7 Li, 24Mg, 55Mn, 59Co, 88Sr and 137Ba) in otoliths of L. alexadrei. Element:Ca ratios in the otoliths of juvenile and sub-adult L. alexadrei from estuaries were not significantly different among three consecutive years (2010, 2011 and 2012), suggesting that physicochemical conditions within the nursery investigated was temporally stable. Similarly, apart from two element (Ba, Co), element:Ca ratios for larger L. alexandrei inhabiting coastal waters were also similar. In contrast, otolith chemistry of similar sized L. alexandrei from estuarine and coastal areas was distinctly different (based on recently accreted material). Otolith Mn:Ca and Ba:Ca were both significantly higher for L. alexandrei collected in estuaries compared to fish from adjacent coastal reefs region, while the opposite trend was observed for Sr:Ca. Given the pronounced differences in otolith chemistry between estuarine and coastal areas, element:Ca transects were constructed from the core to margin of the otoliths for adults (age 7+) collected on reefs to determine the timing of movement (ontogenetic migration) from estuarine to coastal areas. Based on observed patterns of decline for both Mn:Ca and Ba:Ca, it appears that L. alexandrei begin to transition to more coastal habitats (i.e., lower element:Ca ratios) after age 2. Underwater observations indicate that for both species, individuals smaller than 10 cm occurred exclusively in mangroves. A distinct shift was observed with higher densities for individuals larger than 10 cm in adjacent shallow reef areas. For L. alexandrei mangroves registered occurrence of (postsettlers, juveniles and subadults) while for shallow reefs only (subadults and adults) were observed. A similar pattern was observed for L. jocu with individuals (postsettlers, juveniles and subadults) in mangroves and (juveniles and subadults) inhabiting shallow reefs. General information provided in this thesis allow a better understanding of size structure and growth pattern for L. alexandrei. Yet results suggest ontogenetic migration for L. alexandrei between shallow coastal and deeper marine habitats as well as a better understanding of habitat utilization in early life stages for L. alexandrei and L. jocu.

Повний текст джерелаPredicting GDP growth is a concern of several economic agents. The right way to model such variable is far from consensual. This paper’s goal is to compare different models for GDP growth forecasting in the euro area. For comparative purposes, an autoregressive model (which is used as benchmark) and two Autoregressive Distributed Models (ADL), which contain financial and non-financial variables, chosen based on the literature, are used. The main conclusion is that the ADL(2,1,1) considered has superior forecast performance in- and out-of-sample, although in this last case depending on the evaluation metric.
