Through an analysis of Landsat multispectral images of visible, thermal and near-infrared bands, the spatiotemporal change of biophysical parameters： NDVI （normalized difference vegetation index）, blackbody temperature and albedo, were estimated for Mexicali city, using principal component analysis and time series. The satellite images correspond to the dates： April 6, 1993; May 3, 2000; May 12, 2003; May 17, 2008 and May 26, 2011; the results reveal a change in relation to urban growth. In 1993, the vegetation was 20% and in 2011 it decreased to 3.8%. The blackbody temperature increased from 34.0 ℃ to 41.0 ℃ and albedo decreased by 0.37 compared to 1993. The most deteriorated area appears in surroundings of the city because of the change in the vegetation cover by the urban elements.

The waste derived from Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) is of interest now worldwide, in some countries due to the rapid technological development and in others due to technological dependence through the acquisition of second hand equipment. Therefore it is necessary to implement strategies for the sustainable management of electrical and electronic equipment at the end of its useful life. This paper presents the results of an investigation that was conducted in a city located in the Northwest of Mexico, which seeks to understand the management practices of household WEEE generators. A survey was applied to a representative sample of the population with a confidence level of 90%. Six home appliances were quantified and it was found that approximately 21% of them are disposed directly as part of the household flow of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW), while 79% are storage for a latter sale, repair or reuse. The results obtained support the need to develop evaluations and to implement possible scenarios for the sustainable management of Electrical and Electronic Waste.

The objective of this study consisted of evaluating the effect of the application of chitosan (Q), 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) under two controlled temperatures on some physical, physiological, and chemical parameters contributing to the quality of Persian lime Citrus latifolia fruits. Eight treatments were evaluated, resulting from the combination of four senescence retardant applications (Q, 1-MCP, 1-MCP + Q, and without application) on fruits stored at two temperatures (12/20 degrees C). Epidermis color (luminosity, chromaticity, and hue), fruit appearance, respiration, weight loss, total juice content, total soluble solids, and titratable acidity were registered during the study. The results indicate that the 1-MCP and Q combination favored fruit postharvest quality conditions such as reducing respiration rate; maintaining fruit good appearance, turgidity, and brighter fruit chromaticity; fruits treated with chitosan and stored at 12 degrees C, favored total soluble solids. On the other hand, Variables such as weight loss, juice content, acidity, phenols, flavonoids, antioxidant activity, and hue values were favored by a 12 degrees C storing temperature regardless of the treatment. In general, the use of modified atmospheres, senescence retardants, and refrigeration as postharvest methods, can increase Persian lime shelf life.
