The future of how we understand and manage ecosystems largely depends on direct and continuous observations that connect local territories to planetary processes. Latin America (LATAM: Mexico, Central and South America, and the Caribbean) hosts ecosystems critical for regulating global carbon, water, and energy cycles. However, persistent underinvestment in science and technology hampers the long‐term monitoring capacity neede...
“Agricultural irrigation with contaminated water poses a major risk to food security and public health. This study examined contaminant transfer across the water–soil–plant continuum in sugarcane crops irrigated with water from the Cauca River, Colombia. Microbial community composition was characterized using 16S rRNA gene sequencing, while pharmaceutical active compounds (PhACs) in irrigation water and sugarcane plants were q...
Increasing global population and rising levels of wealth are raising demands for services such as shelter and mobility, leading to greater resource use and environmental impacts. Circular strategies can reduce the resources required for these services. However, the potential of circular strategies to reduce material demand is rarely quantified. Here, we present a method to link service, product, and resource use with circular...
Purpose Systematic collection and analysis of antimicrobial resistance data from key bacterial pathogens is essential to contribute to control antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The aim of this work was to survey the drug resistance on clinically relevant organisms stratified according to age, gender, clinical specimens and facilities. Methods Microbiological data were collected from 55 centers across 24 states in Mexico between...
The objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of a commercial mix of condensed and hydrolysable tannins feed additive to lactating dairy cows. Two high-scale dairy farm units, similar management and diets were used. All lactating cows in one unit were fed with the mix of tannins (ByPro ® 0.3%DMI), the other unit was the Control. Cows were categorized per DIM, 0 to 30, 31 to 120, 121 to 365, and more. Milk yield and...
