Resumen: El Sismo 19S detonó un desastre en la CDMX; miles de viviendas en las alcaldías Tláhuac y Xochimilco presentaron daños. El objetivo de este texto es comprender las causas antrópicas del desastre mediante el análisis de estudios académicos, informes oficiales, variables espaciales y observación en campo. La investigación permitió vislumbrar la incidencia de causas sociales en el desastre: la expansión urbana de la Ciudad sobre el suelo de conservación ecológica, los cambios de uso de suelo de agrícola y forestal a urbano, el crecimiento de asentamientos irregulares y vivienda precaria, el incumplimiento de reglamentos de construcción y la sobreexplotación de agua subterránea en el sureste de la cuenca de México; todo esto derivado de políticas habitacionales, de gestión del agua y suelo. La importancia del estudio radica en que pone de manifiesto la necesidad de impulsar una política de mitigación y prevención de desastres vinculada al modelo de desarrollo.   Palabras clave: riesgo, vulnerabilidad, amenaza, desarrollo, vivienda.   Abstract: The 19S earthquake triggered a disaster in the CDMX; thousands of homes in the Tláhuac and Xochimilco municipalities were damaged. The objective of this text is to understand the anthropogenic causes of the disaster through the analysis of academic studies, official reports, spatial variables and field observation. The research provided a glimpse of the incidence of social causes in the disaster: the urban expansion of the city on ecological conservation land, changes in land use from agricultural and forestry to urban, the growth of irregular settlements and precarious housing, non-compliance with building regulations and overexploitation of groundwater in the southeast of the Mexico basin. All this derived from housing, water, and land management policies. The importance of the study lies in the fact that it highlights the need to promote a disaster mitigation and prevention policy linked to the development model.   Key words: risk, vulnerability, hazard, development, housing.

Urbanization is spreading across the world and beyond metropolitan areas. Medium-sized cities have also undergone processes of accelerated urban expansion, especially in Latin America, thanks to scant regulation or a complete lack thereof. Thus, understanding urban growth in the past and simulating it in the future has become a tool to raise its visibility and challenge territorial planners. In this work, we use Markov chains, cellular automata, multi-criteria multi-objective evaluation, and the determination of land use/land cover (LULC) to model the urban growth of the city of Temuco, Chile, a paradigmatic case because it has experienced powerful growth, where real estate development pressures coexist with a high natural value and the presence of indigenous communities. The urban scenario is determined for the years 2033 and 2049 based on the spatial patterns between 1985 and 2017, where the model shows the trend of expansion toward the northeast and significant development in the western sector of the city, making them two potential centers of expansion and conflict in the future given the heavy pressure on lands that are indigenous property and have a high natural value, aspects that need to be incorporated into future territorial planning instruments.

Abstract In recent decades, intense human intervention in the coastal zone has given rise to severe siltation and erosion problems. This scenario is located the São Luís tidal inlet, formed by the mouths of the Anil and Bacanga rivers which due to various kinds of interference have been changing their sediment transport and deposition processes. With these changes in mind, this study sought to evaluate the evolution of the siltation and sedimentation rates in this area, as well as the main anthropogenic influences associated with this process. The methodology consisted in verifying the morphological evolution on the basis of the scanning and vectorization of nautical charts of 1947 and 1966, bathymetric surveys conducted in 2006, and aerial photos dating from 2011. The results show a silting up process coincident with interventions that occurred in the Anil and Bacanga river basins, with a volume of silt estimated at 8.5x106 m3, over the period from 1944 to 2011 (64 years), at a rate of 1.6 cm.yr-1. These processes are associated mainly with the construction of the Bacanga dam and land reclamation projects undertaken for the purpose of providing new areas for urban expansion. The evaluation of the results showed intense and advanced silting up of the São Luís tidal inlet, at rates proportionally greater than those of other estuaries, calling for corrective actions and the implementation of coastal management policies for this area.

Resumo Normas relacionadas à gestão de Resíduos de Construção Civil (RCC) estão vigentes no Brasil há mais de uma década. O intuito dessa gestão é amenizar os impactos ambientais decorrentes do gerenciamento indevido desses resíduos. O objetivo do presente trabalho é investigar a conformidade técnica e legal de sistemas de gerenciamento de resíduos de construção civil no município de Curitiba. Para tal, elaborou-se uma lista de verificação baseada nas normas em vigor e em alguns modelos de certificações ambientais, como: LEED, AQUA, CASBEE, BREAM e HQE. 24 obras de edifícios residenciais e comerciais foram  visitadas — com ou sem certificação ambiental. Essa lista de verificação foi aplicada nas construções, para realizar um diagnóstico do setor. Apesar da gestão de resíduos ser obrigatória e restritiva à obtenção dos certificados de conclusão de obra, os resultados da pesquisa demonstraram que há problemas na segregação, acondicionamento e transporte dos resíduos. Entretanto, a falta de conscientização e a aparente conformidade documental não se traduz em efetivo gerenciamento dos RCC. Palavras-chave: Resíduos de construção e demolição. Gestão de resíduos. Resíduos sólidos. Auditorias ambientais. Abstract Standards related to the management of Construction Waste (CW) have been in force in Brazil for more than a decade. The goal of this management is to alleviate the environmental impacts resulting from the poor management of these wastes. The objective of this work is to investigate the technical and legal compliance of construction waste management systems in the city of Curitiba. To this end, a checklist was drawn up based on current standards and on some models of environmental certifications, such as: LEED, AQUA, CASBEE, BREAM and HQE. 24 works of residential and commercial buildings were visited — with or without environmental certification.  A checklist was applied, in these buildings, to promote a diagnosis of the sector. Although waste management is mandatory and restrictive to obtain building completion certificates, the research results showed that there are problems in the segregation, packaging and transport of waste. However, the lack of awareness and the apparent documentary compliance does not translate into effective management of the CW. Keywords:  Construction and demolition waste. Waste management. Solid waste. Environmental audits. Resumen Normas relativas a la gestión de Residuos Sólidos de Construcción Civil (RCC) están vigentes en Brasil hace más de una década.

Resumen: El "hameau" vertical de Le Corbusier es un prototipo de alojamiento colectivo, desarrollado como alternativa plástica a la "Unité d'habitation de grandeur conforme", quizás su obra más sintética. La torre residencial se concreta a partir de las teorías urbanas de la regla de las 7V, a través de la impronta de una de las formas elementales: el volumen cilíndrico, manteniendo prácticamente inalteradas capacidad, forma y dimensiones en cualquiera de los entornos urbanos donde se inserta, los proyectos no construidos de su última etapa para Europa. Lejos de ser un modelo genuino es deudor de otras construcciones previas, los albergues para las colonias infantiles italianas, promovidas por la fábrica FIAT en los años 30, y algunos experimentos residenciales del arquitecto francés Auguste Bossu, erigidos también por esos años en la ciudad de Saint-Étienne. El artículo traza las relaciones entre estas construcciones y las aldeas cilíndricas para solteros, analizando las particularidades de su estructura formal y la dinámica de su organización interna, para comprobar cómo son adoptadas por Le Corbusier en la constitución de la identidad de un nuevo tipo de vivienda colectiva que permanece todavía a la sombra de sus proyectos más reconocidos. Abstract: The vertical "hameau" of Le Corbusier is a prototype of collective housing, developed as a plastic alternative to “Unité d’habitation de grandeur conforme", perhaps his most synthetic work. The residential tower is generated from urban doctrine of 7V theory through the shape of one of the elementary forms: the cylindrical volume. The towers keep capacity, shape and dimensions unchanged in any urban environments where they are inserted: the unbuilt urban projects in his last stage in Europe. Far from being a genuine type, is based in other previous constructions; the children's summer camps sponsored by the Fiat factory in the 30s, and some residential experiments by French architect Auguste Bossu erected by those years in the city of Saint-Etienne. The article describes the relationship between these structures and the cylindrical villages for singles and analyzes the peculiarities of their formal structure and the dynamic of their internal organization in order to check how those constructions were adapted by Le Corbusier for the constitution of a new collective type dwelling which still remains in the shadow of his most famous projects.  Palabras clave: Le Corbusier; hameaux verticaux; comuna cilíndrica; torre residencial.

<p class="CorpoA">Os ambientes costeiros são considerados espaços estratégicos devido à diversidade de funções econômicas, sociais e ambientais.  Nesses espaços se desenvolvem múltiplos usos, por agentes que possuem os mais variados interesses, levando muitas vezes a conflitos de ordem socioambiental. Estratégias de gestão podem ser usadas para enfrentar tais problemas, especialmente através do envolvimento popular. A inserção das comunidades deve ocorrer desde o levantamento de informações até o processo de tomada de decisão. O presente trabalho objetiva coletar informações  socioambientais por meio do uso de questionários semi-estruturados, na comunidade de Macapá, município de Luis Correia, estado do Piauí. Os questionários foram aplicados nas residências da comunidade e respondidos por um representante familiar, perfazendo um total de 78 participantes. A partir das informações levantadas foi possível traçar o perfil socioeconômico da comunidade, avaliar a estrutura higiênico-sanitária e identificar potencialidades e limitações de uso. Assim, verificaram-se o baixo nível de escolaridade e renda média das famílias e as deficiências relacionadas ao abastecimento de água, esgotamento sanitário e coleta de resíduos. Além disso, foi possível identificar potencialidades que podem ser exploradas por atividades de ecoturismo, por exemplo, e limitações relacionadas à implantação de estruturas rígidas. As informações apuradas são úteis para o delineamento de políticas de gestão que compatibilizem o desenvolvimento econômico, a melhoria na qualidade de vida da população e a manutenção da qualidade das funções ambientais.</p><p class="CorpoA"><strong>Palavras–</strong><strong>chave</strong>: gestão costeira, políticas públicas, potencialidades e limitações de uso.</p><p class="CorpoA" align="center"> </p><p class="CorpoA"><strong>Abstract</strong><strong></strong></p><p class="CorpoA">Costal environments are considered strategic spaces due to the diversity of economic, social and environmental functions.

The present issue aims to collect socioenvironmental information with semi-structured questionnaires in the communitie of Macapá, in the city of Luis Corrêa, State of Piauí. The questionnaires were applied in the cities residences, answered by a family’s representative, making up 63 attendees. From the information gathered, it was possible to draw the socioeconomic profile of the community, to evaluate the hygienic and sanitary structure and identify potentialities and limitations of use. Thus, a low level of schooling and average income of families were verified, deficiencies in relation to water supply, sanitary sewage and waste collection.  Besides that, it was possible to identify potentialities that can be explored by ecotourism activities, for instance, besides the limitations related the implantation of rigid structures. The collected information are useful for the drawing of management policies that reconcile the economic development, the improvement of the life quality of the population and the quality keeping of the environmental functions.</p><p class="CorpoA"><strong>Keywords</strong>: coastal management, public policies, potentialities and limitation of use.</p>

Kota Baru is the satellite city of Bandar Lampung. The city is prepared for the expansion of the city of Bandar Lampung. Zonation map of earthquake risk is required for Kota Baru due to its location within the reach of earthquake energy of Semangko subduction fault. In this study, we model the earthquake-prone zone map based on the soil characteristics (site effect) combined with the underground layer model to get a detailed description of the horizontal and vertical soil character. The microtremor method is performed to obtain the zonation effect mapping. Whereas, the ground layer modeling is obtained using the geoelectrical method. The modeling results show that the study area is far from tectonic activity based on the history of past earthquake events. However, this area has a large sediment thickness and has a low dominant frequency value, so it is an area that is vulnerable to earthquakes

This research aimed to improve the perception of the quality of service of the Hotel El Libertador by means of sensory marketing elements to improve the tourist experience. The study variables were derived from the visual, auditory and kinesthetic perceptions related to the quality of service. In addition, an analysis was performed with the EEG MindWave Mobile 2 biometric equipment, to understand the levels of attention, meditation and blinking. In terms of visual perception, it was determined that attention should be paid to the clothing of the staff (27.6%) and signage (40.9%). The elements of the auditory perception of the hotel had low ratings because the hotel has not implemented elements of auditory sensory marketing in the facilities. Four of the seven elements of the kinesthetic perceptions were not attended and had a weight between 38.3% and 46.7%. As a result of these analyses, a sensory marketing proposal was suggested, which included visual, auditory and kinesthetic marketing strategies, to provide a solution to the existing problems with the hotel facilities. Based on the biometric equipment results, a proposal was made for sensory marketing strategies with elements of experiential communication to be used in the hotel’s facilities which would also improve the perception of service quality. Keywords: sensory marketing, perception, tourism, senses, quality of service, neuromarketing. Resumen La investigación tuvo como objetivo mejorar la percepción en la calidad de servicio del HOTEL EL LIBERTADOR, por medio de elementos de marketing sensorial mejorando la experiencia del turista.
