English The economic damage and loss of lives caused by hurricanes have motivated efforts to expand scientific research related to resilience to these natural phenomena. However, published writings are dispersed and fragmented in different fields of study. This research is aimed to identify factors that promote resilience in hurricane-impacted areas by reviewing specialized literature. The study is qualitative, based on content analysis. Twenty-seven articles published between 2006 and 2019 were reviewed. The results show that resilience has a multidisciplinary character, although there is a coincidence in defining it as a system’s ability to absorb, resist, and recover from disasters; the system is conceived as the representation of a totality made up of related elements (ecological, social, and economic, among others). A focus on physical infrastructure predominates, but a social approach begins to be distinguished. The factors that promote resilience are grouped into four categories: ecological, social, infrastructure, and mental health. Spanish La investigación científica sobre resiliencia ha incrementado paralelamente a los daños económicos y casualidades humanas generadas por el paso de huracanes. El objetivo de esta investigación es identificar los factores que promueven la resiliencia en áreas impactadas por huracanes, mediante la revisión de literatura especializada. El estudio es cualitativo basado en análisis de contenido de publicaciones científicas en diferentes campos de estudio. En específico, se revisaron veintisiete artículos publicados entre 2006 y 2019. La resiliencia es multidisciplinar y hay una coincidencia al definirla: la capacidad de un sistema para absorber, resistir y recuperarse de los desastres. Predomina un enfoque de infraestructura física, pero comienza a distinguirse uno social. Los factores que promueven la resiliencia se agrupan en cuatro categorías: ecológica, social, infraestructura y salud mental. French Les pertes en vies humaines et les dégâts économiques causés par les ouragans ont motivé la recherche scientifi que sur la résilience, définie comme la capacité d’un système à absorber, à résister et à se remettre des catastrophes. Les écrits publiés sont dispersés et fragmentés dans différents domaines d’étude. L’objectif de cette e recherche était d’identifier les facteurs favorisant la résilience dans des zones touchées par les ouragans en examinant la littérature spécialisée. L’étude est qualitative, basée sur une analyse de contenu. Vingt-sept articles publiés entre 2006 et 2009 ont été examinés. L’approche en termes d’infrastructure physique prédomine, mais une approche sociale commence à se distinguer. Les facteurs favorisant la résilience peuvent être regroupés en quatre catégories : écologique, sociale, infrastructurelle et celle de la santé mentale.

El Material Particulado es un conjunto de materia dispersa en la atmósfera, este contaminante pone en riesgo la salud pública, específicamente en vías respiratorias debido a las concentraciones que se observan en diferentes zonas urbanas. El objetivo fue evaluar la concentración de PM10 y PM2.5 y su relación con los sistemas atmosféricos. Se realizó un monitoreo en el periodo de estiaje del 2018-2019 en 10 puntos diferentes de la ciudad. Las mediciones se realizaron en el horario de 8:00-10:30 am, cada 10 minutos con el monitor en tiempo real PM2.5/PM10 HoldPeak HP-5800F. El sitio con mayor concentración de PM2.5 fue El Pitillal con 13.7 μg/m3, y la menor concentración fue Mojoneras con 7.6 μg/m3, siendo la tendencia hacia el centro de la zona urbana. En el caso de la concentración de PM10, los valores más altos fueron en el CUC con 66.4 μg/m3, mientras el de menor valor fue El Centro con 23.9 μg/m3, siendo la tendencia hacia el noreste. En cuanto al IMECA, la zona se encuentra dentro del nivel bueno, aunque se pudo observar en algunas zonas, específicamente en Las Juntas, las concentraciones medias de PM10 sobrepasan el valor máximo que establece la Norma Oficial Mexicana.

The presence of extreme hydrometeorological threats has co-occurred with the COVID-19 pandemic, increasing the potential risk of a disaster scenario occurring. The hurricane “Cristobal”, which impacted Mexico’s tropical regions, presented a high risk of contagion and death caused by the combined effects of violent winds, floods, and evacuations. This work aims to determine whether the presence of concurrent events during the pandemic caused an increase in confirmed positive COVID-19 cases in the Yucatan Peninsula’s western sector. To achieve this, a numerical analysis and identification of the tropical storm’s extreme characteristics were conducted. Next, a combined analysis of the territorial system subject to flooding and the rainfall level reported during the emergency period was conducted at the municipal level. The third phase consisted of analyzing the confirmed positive cases of COVID-19 at the municipal level on four strategic dates (before, during, observation, and end of the emergency period). Finally, a content analysis of the emergency bulletins, action guides, and disaster declarations was carried out to identify the measures and adaptations implemented during the pandemic. It is recognized that emergency management measures were implemented for municipalities with more than 30 confirmed positive cases of COVID-19 and where the shelter capacity was reduced. Protocols for caring for people were followed, these being one of the leading adaptive methods. From the analyzed data, it can be pointed out that there is no direct evidence for an increase in positive COVID-19 cases in 10 of the municipalities. However, in the case of the municipality of Escarcega, there was a sudden increase in cases from June 8, which continues to grow. Therefore, it is necessary to deepen the study of multiple events to recognize the actions that can prevent catastrophes in these times of crisis.

La falta de acceso a fuentes de agua segura es un problema en el Caribe Mexicano, particularmente en comunidades con irregularidad en servicios. Ante esto, la captación de agua de lluvia (CALL) podría representar una alternativa para satisfacer necesidades básicas. Sin embargo, los esquemas de implementación a menudo son verticales y jerárquicos. En este trabajo se aportó conocimiento sobre las percepciones y formas de uso del agua de lluvia, para contribuir a la toma decisiones. La información se obtuvo mediante observaciones etnográficas y encuestas a 60 representantes de hogar de una muestra de 253 viviendas en la comunidad de Puerto Morelos, Quintana Roo. El 95 % de los encuestados fueron foráneos, por lo que sus percepciones y formas de manejo del recurso fueron heterogéneas: desde sistemas simples (cubetas y tambos) hasta sistemas complejos integrados a las viviendas. En general, la CALL cuenta con una percepción positiva por parte de la población estudiada, lo cual permitiría su implementación en proyectos más estructurados que promuevan el mejoramiento de las técnicas de captación en la localidad.

En este artículo se expone una revisión analítica actual de las vitales contribuciones, en especial latinoamericanas y de otros países, en la construcción teórica-investigativa del espacio urbano, con perspectiva de género, específicamente homosexual. Con la finalidad de evidenciar cómo la comunidad gay y hombres habitan interconectadamente espacios y donde producen significados de formas diversas dentro de la ciudad. Y de esta manera contribuir en la comprensión de las formas adyacentes en la conformación de espacios para las prácticas emancipatorias en lo urbano y social, ya que las dinámicas homosexuales y el espacio público, son uno de los componentes sustanciales de la ciudad. Para tal objetivo se llevó a cabo la exploración de libros, artículos científicos e investigaciones a partir de la década de los noventa hasta la actualidad. Donde se logró identificar concepciones teóricas, ejes temáticos, así como problemáticas particulares encontradas en los distintos ámbitos de la investigación. De igual manera, se expresan desafíos pendientes en cuanto al desarrollo de las manifestaciones espaciales de la homosexualidad.

The studies on the evolution of tourist destinations are not a new issue, however, most of them have been focused on consolidated destinations, whereas only a minimum has been done on tourism transformation in rural areas. The objective of this work is to diagnose the evolutionary process of tourism in Coastal Rural Communities (CRCs). To do this, we propose a model which combines two research approaches, Path Dependence and Social Network Analysis. The methodological approach is divided into three parts: design, application and validation, and it is based on collecting in situ and identifying key informants. In the first part, the stages of a Path Dependence for a CRC are conceptualized and bipartite graphs are constructed to show the relationships between: (1) the identified establishments built in a period of time and (2) positive and negative lock-ins with a greater degree of influence on the evolutionary process. On this basis, the resulting graphs are associated with the stages of the Path Dependence. In the second part, the model theoretically raised is applied as an empirical case at the CRC of Playa Ventura, Guerrero, in the Southern Pacific of Mexico. Finally, we validated the model based on the results obtained, which indicate that the model is suitable for the generation of knowledge about the evolutionary process of tourism in CRC’s, and therefore, it opens the possibility of being replicated in other communities with the same characteristics.

The first diagnose of heavy metal (Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni and Pb) concentrations present in Chetumal, Mexico and its spatial distribution was carried out by analyzing 86 samples of urban dust through atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The assessment of the extent of pollution was undertaken by the use of the Mexican Residential Soil Guideline Values, the calculation of the contamination factor and the pollution load index. The results showed concentrations of heavy metals below the Mexican guidelines in the city, except for chromium and lead in a few samples. However, using the contamination factor the concentrations for chromium, lead and copper are exceeded in some samples. The map of pollution load index shows the areas requiring immediate attention from the decision makers.

Morphological relief analysis allows the identification of geomorphological forms and cartographic-environmental studies make extensive use of the medium (1:50,000) and large scale (1:250,000), where the topographical contrast is evident. However, at a detailed scale (<1:20,000) and for territories where the contrast of relief does not exceed 10 m in height, the morphological analyses must be adapted accordingly, because they contribute information to altimetry studies and to the topographic configuration of units. Thus, through visual interpretation and manipulation of high-resolution topographical LiDAR data from Cozumel Island, a relief analysis is presented at a detailed scale for the purpose of recognizing the geomorphological units of karst origin, using altimetry and slope cartography, digital models of elevation, and shading that permits the identification of 109 new exokarstic doline and uvala formations.

In recent decades the number of visitors to archaeological sites has increased exponentially. This increase has generated both negative and positive impacts. This article proposes a Visitor Flow Management Process (VFMP) that aims to minimize the negative impacts and enhance the benefits visitor flows can have in touristified archaeological sites. Although several proposals for visitor management frameworks exist for natural protected areas, for archaeological sites there are only isolated strategies and actions. Following a review of the literature on the visitor impacts and visitor management strategies implemented in 11 touristified archaeological sites around the world, 96 visitor management measures were identified, classified and synthesized into a three stage-process: (1) Restrict the number of visitors; (2) Redistribute visitor flows in time and space and (3) Interpret the archaeological site considering the mass influx of visitors. VFMP is a useful tool for heritage site managers dealing with mass tourism, whose implementation can contribute to reducing damage to heritage and enhancing the quality of the visitor experience.

The Yucatan Peninsula in south-eastern Mexico is the largest karstic area of the country; however, there are very few studies on the geodiversity of the region. The objective of this study is the identification and qualification of the diversity of elements of the relief, considering geomorphology, geology, hydrology and soil properties as components of geodiversity. To calculate the geodiversity, a simple additive model of thematic diversity was used, following Jačková and Romportl (2008). The geodiversity in the east of the Yucatan Peninsula manifests as a north to south banding. The geodiversity of coastal portion presents values ranging from medium to very high, in the central portion it ranges from medium to very low and in the western portion, where are the oldest geological formations, have high and very high values.
