“…A strong correlation is observed in Figure 2 between the annual distribution of precipitation and the occurrence of mass movements events (R² = 0.726). This relationship is similar to the results of other investigations such as Vilímek et al (2013) and Hijar et al (2016), who conclude that there is a cause-effect between hydrometeorological events and external geodynamic disasters.…”

The natural disasters generated by external geodynamics are geological risks that constantly modify landscapes, with a more significant occurrence in mountainous areas, affecting populations and registering many victims in densely populated places. This research analyzes the events in Huaraz province, of Ancash department, in the central Andes of Peru, to find relationships between their occurrence and geographical factors such as altitude, slopes, climate, and extreme meteorological events. An inventory of events was made and classified as floods, mass gravitational movements, waterlogging or snow avalanches. Using QGIS software, spreadsheets and digital elevation models, information on natural disasters, altitude levels, physiography, river basins, meteorological data, and earthquakes were analyzed. As a result, it was obtained that the Quechua region registered 60% of all events; the Santa River basin 76%; the wet season of the Peruvian Andes 78%; and places with slopes between 8% and 50% (wavy relief) 72% of disasters. It is concluded that the best conditions for these events are the intense rainfall and the undulating reliefs, predominant in the Quechua region. Likewise, floods are the disasters that register the most significant number and generate the most damage in Huaraz province. Finally, it was determined that high-intensity El Niño-Southern Oscillation processes do not necessarily increase the number of events for the study area.

“…Moreover, the El Niño phenomenon has created increased rainfall across the east-central and Eastern Pacific Ocean raising humidity levels favoring the sand fly’s reproduction and vector expansion [28, 29]. However, the insidious extension of the South American Bartonellosis in areas where the Lutzomyia genus is absent suggest the presence of undescribed vectors for B. bacilliformis [28].…”

ObjectiveTo study the presence of Bartonella bacilliformis in ticks collected from two wild mammals in Madre de Dios, Peru.ResultsA total of 110 ticks were collected. Among the 43 Amblyomma spp. extracted from the 3 Tapirus terrestris only 3 were positive for B. bacilliformis. In addition, 12 out of the 67 Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus obtained from the 3 Pecari tajacu were positive for B. bacilliformis. For the first time B. bacilliformis have been detected in arthropods other than Lutzomyia spp. Further studies are required to elucidate the possible role of ticks in the spread of South American Bartonellosis.

Para ello se hizo una revisión de la documentación científica publicada sobre los efectos del cambio climático en la salud humana y se señalan algunos de los efectos que los fenó-menos secundarios al cambio climático, tales como las temperaturas extremas, las olas de calor, los cambios en la calidad del aire o del agua tienen sobre la morbimortalidad de la población. Una de las conclusiones del estudio es que los fenómenos secundarios al cambio climático tienen efectos directos e indirectos sobre la salud humana, lo que hace que las repercusiones sean diversas y se solapen unas con otras, al tiempo que algunas serán difícilmente reversibles en años o decenios.Palabras clave: cambio climático; salud humana; efectos directos e indirectos * Este artículo analiza, sistematiza e integra los resultados de investigaciones sobre el tema del cambio climático y la salud humana, con el fin de dar cuenta de los avances y las tendencias de desarrollo en esta materia. ** Enfermera y abogada, Especialista en Auditoría en Salud y en Gerencia en Salud Ocupacional.

To this end, we reviewed the scientific literature published on the consequences of climate change on human health and pointed out some of the effects secondary phenomena of climate change -such as extreme temperatures, heat waves, changes in the quality of air or water-have on the morbidity/mortality of the population. One of the conclusions of the study is that phenomena secondary to climate change have direct and indirect effects on human health, which gives rise to diverse and overlapping repercussions, with some others that will be difficult to reverse in years or decades.
