Although wild birds are considered the main reservoir of the influenza A virus (IAV) in nature, empirical investigations exploring the interaction between the IAV prevalence in these populations and environmental drivers remain scarce. Chile has a coastline of more than 4000 kilometres with hundr...

Spatial planning is a key policy instrument for decision-making which drives future changes to land systems, and subsequently to the quality, quantity and spatial distribution of ecosystem services (ES). Supply and demand of ES vary from local to regional and global scales affecting a wide range ...
In the present work, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) synthetized with Cryptocarya alba (Peumo) leaf extract were studied. The fabrication method was fast, low cost, and eco-friendly, and the final properties of AgNPs were determined by experimental parameters, such as AgNO3 and Peumo extract concent...

Temuco is one of the most highly wood smoke polluted cities in Chile; however, there is scarce evidence of respiratory morbidity due to fine particulate matter. We aimed to estimate the relationship between daily concentration of ultrafine particles (UFP), with an aerodynamic diameter <= 0.1 mu m...

We trace the evolution of the term 'parlamento' in its meaning as Hispanic-Mapuche gathering or assembly during the colonial period, as derived from the original Mapuche concept of coyag. We review the main bilingual sources, i.e., grammar and translations, in order to register these lexical uses...

We determined the seasonal diet of the variable hawk, Geranoaetus polyosoma, in a hyperarid and threatened habitat in the Atacama Desert, northern Chile, by analysing the contents of the bird's pellets. We estimated the biomass and number of individuals of each prey species consumed. We compared ...
