Puerto Rico - Science topic

We would like to perform this analysis to assess masting behavior in a tropical west forest in Puerto Rico.

During 2018, Puerto Rico has exposed to many devastating hurricanes along with many other parts of USA. In Puerto Rico, hurricanes have created disaster in the society. There is no doubt that Puerto Rico has experienced major hurricanes during 2018. However, the country was not in the list of Top Ten “Long Term Climate Risk Index (CRI) in the past. Surprisingly, Global Climate Risk Index 2019 by GERMANWATCH has placed the country in the top of the list.

Can we define climate risk like that?

Over here we are attempting at emulating high quality algebra books (like Euler's and others in order to generate a course for university studients. In Puerto Rico we get extremely able students (not as good at Berkeley's thouch) and they do dismally in the entrance math course which is a precalculus type course. We would like to generate activities, notes and compiuter suport for such a course. Your project sounds very challenging and interesting. We have been reading your papers on this topic. JMLópez

Eliut,

A common denominator for your research population can be the fact that they all have awareness of national law; in particular to ordinances that deal with health. Hence even before entering this study, subjects might have formed preconceived notions on suicide that might not have been warranted by their proximity to/contact with victims/or those attempting to commit suicide. This may suggest an approach to stigma that stems from the very choice of their academic matriculation. Hence the belief that 'doctors save life' may be paramount to these medical student as an acknowledgement that those that either attempt or have committed suicide are evidence of their inability to 'save lives'.

Cheers,

Winston

Hi, colleagues,

I am working on my master's proposal on specific reading comprehension skills in an English class in a bilingual school in Puerto Rico, and I have been searching for a pre-existing validated pre-test/post-test on determining main idea and making inferences to present to IRB. This step would truly help a lot to further the study.

If anyone has knowledge of this, or has one and is willing to share it, I would be so incredibly grateful and, of course, I would give credit to the author, if I am able to use it.

Thank you in advance.

I'm a Bachelor Student from the University of Puerto Rico, trying to mix both of my passions of food and Archaeology. Would love to hear from others experiences and knowledge. Please feel free to answer as you like and desire.

How can we mirror (put shiny reflecting coating on) the surface of a very large parabolic antenna such as that of the world's largest telescope (305 m diameter) in Puerto Rico, USA. 

Hello,

So I am having some spreadsheet issues, using excel. So I'll get right to it.

I am keeping population count data of every county in the USA.

However, I do not have population data for Puerto Rico.

I would like to take my spreadsheet of every USA county, and delete all counties/municipalities that belong to Puerto Rico, or any other U.S territories outside of the 50 states.

How can I do this?

Is there some way to take my spreadsheet that has info for only 50 states counties, select them, then go to the spreadsheet that has info for all 50 states counties, plus territories, and tell excel, hey, delete all rows that don't match the entries of my other spreadsheet?

Thanks!

I am analizing the information I recollect for my investigation project and I think this text book will be helpfull for it. I am a graduate student from University of Puerto Rico at Rio Piedras Campus and I am working to finish my dissertation at this semester.

Thanks you very much!

We address services and public policies with regards to autism spectrum. This provides data, intervention projects, update on policies and services. We are currently developing an assessment battery for youth who are ready to engage in the labor market but have placement difficulties 

We have a number of graduate and undergraduate students in Puerto Rico conducting urban social-ecological research at different scales and over 400 pre-hurricane urban vegetation plots (i-Tree Eco). Anyone has any suggestions on small grants or ways to find or channel resources to conduct post-hurricane surveys and at the same time provide stipends for researchers who lost all sorts of income and health care due to Hurricane Maria?

We are ready to work, we are prepared to conduct research, we want to keep our research efforts alive. 

Puerto Rico's GDP growth rate has been negative or stagnant since 2006, a recession that will continue in the near future. Does anyone know of any country or state with a recorded recession of more than 11 years?

I work in the area of L2/L3 influence on native languages; will you be including the influence of other acquired languages on the Spanish? My colleague at work is from Puerto Rico, and she says that the people of the interior of the island use their pronunciations and constructions from Taino when they speak Spanish. I am also interested in whether or not you are asking the participants if they use texting language/mobile phone language - even I have noticed that I am beginning to use texting constructions in my speech patterns. Best of luck!

I recently saw your presentation on the society for scientific exploration webpage. It was mentioned in the description that you were coordinating efforts to simultaneously run pendulums during the August eclipse and that proper equipment could be provided. Im a PhD student at the university of puerto rico and was wondering if I could collaborate. Thanks.

Just transitioned from being an Army wife to just being a wife. I am still blown away by the transition process that we moved though and still trying to settle into my civilian life.

In Puerto Rico IPV has seemed to increase.  I would like to know if there is a connection between acculturation and the influence of the political relationship between Puerto Rico and the United States is a factor.
