| description | Under the idea of urban ecosystem, the objective of this study is to determine which internal patterns are those that determine whether or not the virtual water metabolic network (RMAV) of the Metropolitan District of Quito (DMQ) reaches a sustainable state at a moment in time. . For us, sustainability is a complete system feature, where the basic requirements are cross-border flows and entry and exit sinks. However, we emphasize what happens within the system, specifically the balance between efficiency and redundancy. To do this, we study the RMAV of the DMQ with the ecological network analysis (ENA) and we condense the evaluation into two classes of metrics, those that are focused on flow and those that are focused on information. The results show that it is a network where comprehensive relationships of exploitation dominate. The dominant ecological sectors of the ecological hierarchy are commerce (CM) and advanced manufacturing (MA), the most central node is commerce through which the largest amount of virtual water flows pass. RMAV is redundant to the detriment of efficiency, being located on the left side of the vitality window, out of sustainable positional balance. |

Para nosotros la sostenibilidad es un rasgo de sistema completo, donde los requisitos básicos son los flujos transfronterizos y, los sumideros de entrada y salida. No obstante, enfatizamos en lo que pasa dentro del sistema, específicamente en el equilibrio entre la eficiencia y la redundancia. Para ello estudiamos la RMAV del DMQ con el análisis de redes ecológicas (ENA) y condensamos la evaluación en dos clases de métricas, las que están enfocadas en el flujo y las que están enfocadas en la información. Los resultados muestran que es una red donde dominan las relaciones integrales de explotación. Los sectores ecológicos dominantes de la jerarquía ecológica son comercio (CM) y manufactura avanzada (MA), el nodo más central es el comercio por donde pasan la mayor cantidad de flujos de agua virtual. La RMAV es redundante en detrimento de la eficiencia, localizándose al lado izquierdo de la ventana de vitalidad, es decir, fuera del equilibrio posicional sostenible.Banco Central del Ecuador2021-11-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtículos de Investigaciónapplication/pdfhttps://estudioseconomicos.bce.fin.ec/index.php/RevistaCE/article/view/35310.47550/RCE/MEM/31.32Cuestiones Económicas; Vol. 31 Núm. 3 (2021): Edición Especial: Memorias IV Encuentro Internacional de Economía EPN; Autores: Francisco Rosales y Brian Fath2697-33672697-3367reponame:Revista Cuestiones Económicasinstname:Banco Central del Ecuadorinstacron:BCEspahttps://estudioseconomicos.bce.fin.ec/index.php/RevistaCE/article/view/353/253info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-11-26T18:24:01Zoai:estudioseconomicos.bce.fin.ec:article/353Portal de revistashttps://estudioseconomicos.bce.fin.ec/index.php/RevistaCEOrganismo de gobiernowww.bce.fin.echttps://estudioseconomicos.bce.fin.ec/index.php/RevistaCE/oaiEcuadoropendoar:2021-11-26T18:24:01falsePortal de revistashttps://estudioseconomicos.bce.fin.ec/index.php/RevistaCEOrganismo de gobiernowww.bce.fin.echttps://estudioseconomicos.bce.fin.ec/index.php/RevistaCE/oaiEcuadoropendoar:2021-11-26T18:24:01Revista Cuestiones Económicas - Banco Central del Ecuadorfalse |
