AbstractThe Paso Del Norte (PdN) region comprises the city of El Paso, TX, Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, and some neighboring cities in the state of New Mexico. Developing a regional weather model for this specific region has always been challenging due to its complex terrain. To obtain more accurate weather and pollution forecasting for the PdN region, the results of the downscaled WRF (Weather Research and Forecast) model were intercompared with meteorological satellite data, with ground and radiosonde dataset. In addition, it is critical to analyze the distributions of ozone concentrations to better understand atmospheric aerosol concentrations and predict them both more accurately. Hence, in this study the ozone results of CAMx (Comprehensive Air Quality Model with Extensions) were extensively intercompared with ozonesonde data. The radiosonde/ozonesonde data were obtained throughout a campaign conducted during the summer of 2017 in the PdN region. Different meteorological variables such as temperature, pressure, relative humidity, wind speed, and ozone concentrations were used for comparison at several locations in the PdN region. The TCEQ (Texas Commission of Environment Quality) data from different CAMS (Continuous Ambient Monitoring Stations) were used for ground data intercomparison with the WRF results. The meteorological satellite sounding data were retrieved using an in-house satellite antenna receiver. The results of this research paper will not only provide better pollution forecasting capability for the PdN region but also for other regions with similar topography and terrain.

O ensaio examina o caso dos feminicídios que resultaram em pelo menos 300 mulheres assassinadas durante os últimos 11 anos em Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, na fronteira norte do México. Em todos esses anos, as autoridades apresentaram somente uns poucos suspeitos, sem nunca conseguir convencer a opinião pública de sua culpabilidade. Impunidade e proteção dos assassinos são evidentes tanto para a opinião pública local como para os observadores internacionais. Eu sugiro que o que é escrito no corpo das mulheres brutalmente assassinadas é a assinatura de um poder local e regional que também conta com tentáculos nacionais. Esses atos de violência aparentemente irracional enunciam, para além de qualquer dúvida, o poder discricionário de seus perpetradores e o controle que eles detêm sobre pessoas e recursos de seu território, selando e reforçando com isso um pacto de fraternidade.
