"La región del Alto Golfo de California (AGC) posee gran interés biológico, geológico, químico y físico debido a sus características endémicas, que han sido fuertemente modificadas por actividades humanas en el último siglo. El conocimiento del transporte de sedimentos en…

Effective document retrieval using domain knowledge and semantics is one of the major challenges in Information Retrieval. Over the last years, there has been a growing interest in ontologies as an artifact for human knowledge representation and a critical component…
