▼ Abstract of ESSAYS IN APPLIED MICROECONOMICS, by AURORA ALEJANDRA RAMÍREZ ÁLVAREZ, Ph.D., Brown University, May 2017 Essays in Applied Microeconomics contains two main chapters written between 2013 and 2017. Chapter 1 examines whether individuals' crime perceptions and crime avoidance behavior respond to changes in crime news coverage. I use data from Mexico, where major media groups agreed to reduce coverage of violence in March 2011. Using a unique dataset on national news content and machine learning techniques, I document that after the Agreement, crime news coverage on television, radio, and newspapers decreases relative to the national homicide rate. Using survey data, I find robust evidence that crime perceptions respond to this change in content. After the Agreement, individuals with higher media exposure are less likely to report that they feel insecure and that their country, state, or municipality is insecure, relative to individuals with lower media exposure. However, I show that these changes in crime perceptions are not accompanied by changes in crime avoidance behavior (i.e. no longer going out at night for fear of being a victim of crime), or at least that effects are much smaller. Chapter 2 studies the effect of land ownership reforms in the allocation of local public goods in rural Mexico. I estimate the effect of acquiring dominio pleno, the private ownership of communal areas of land known as ejidos, on the allocation of local public goods, such as piped water and electricity. Using a first-differences matching estimator to address selection concerns, I show that the percentage of households with access to water and electricity decreases in ejidos with dominio pleno. I suggest that these results can be explained by an increase in mobilization costs in privatized ejidos after the reform, which is consistent with lower turnout rates in municipal elections observed in these areas.

▼ Insurance Type and Use of Contraceptive Methods among Women of Reproductive Age in Mexico: Evidence from the 2015 Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey Objectives. The purpose of the study is to test the difference between Seguro Popular and employment-based health insurance on the outcomes of contraception use, which include long- acting reversible contraception, hormonal, and traditional/ barrier methods, among women of reproductive age in Mexico. Methods. Logistic regression models and tests for equality of coefficients were used to analyze data from the 2015 Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey in Mexico. Results. Tests of equality of coefficients between Seguro Popular and employment-based health insurance enrollees suggested a significant difference in use of long- acting reversible contraception and traditional/barrier for unadjusted models. However, there was no significant difference in use of hormonal methods in the unadjusted model. Adjusted models suggested an insignificant difference in use of long- acting reversible contraception and traditional/ barrier methods for Seguro Popular and employment -based insurance enrollees. We found a significant difference in use of hormonal methods when adjusting the model. Discussion. Increasing access to contraception and reducing the inequality that exists between those in the public and private sector can be achieved through a comprehensive health reform to expand universal health coverage. Women’s Beliefs and Attitudes Regarding Use of Diverse Contraceptive Methods Objective. The purpose of this study is to identify, compare, and contrast women’s beliefs and attitudes about using intravaginal rings, spermicide in conjunction with condoms, and oral contraceptive pills, and the relationship of these to their experiences and potential choice of contraceptive method. Methods. Women used one or more contraceptive methods, each method for 3 months. Qualitative data from individual, in-depth interviews completed after each 3-month use period were analyzed using a summary matrix framework. Data were extracted and summarized into relevant themes. Each woman’s own experiences were compared amongst the methods she used and across participants. Results. The data consist of 31, 90-120-minute in-depth qualitative interviews where women (16) discussed their beliefs and attitudes regarding contraceptive products. Four themes were identified related to attitudes and beliefs: (1) Women’s Perceptions of Contraceptive Burden versus the Burden of an Unintended Pregnancy; (2) Women’s Experiences Impact Contraceptive Use and Choice; (3) Women’s Experiences with Intravaginal Methods Impact Attitudes/Beliefs; and (4) Attitudes/Beliefs about Discreet Use of Contraceptive Methods Within Women’s Interpersonal Relationships, in addition to factors not typically considered in previous studies, e.g., product-specific factors pertaining to sexual partnerships; implications of previous experiences with contraception on current or future use; and familiarity of product functions in terms of insertion and… Advisors/Committee Members: Galárraga, Omar (Advisor), Claborn, Kasey (Reader), Guthrie, Kate (Reader), Harrison, Abigail (Advisor).

▼ This study investigates the factors or determinants that influence success of teams within the Big 12 Conference of the National College Football Organization in Mexico. The findings of such a study were perceived to be useful to other football teams in Mexico, enabling them to implement the strategies and practices of the teams considered the most successful. The participants in this study included head coaches and players of teams within the Big 12 Conference in Mexico. Two questionnaires containing open-ended questions were addressed to coaches and players in telephone interviews. The data acquired was first transcribed in its original language [Spanish], and then translated to English. Content analysis was used in the analysis of the data. The results indicated that several factors- themes, emerged from the interviews, and they were organized into the input-throughput-output model of organizational effectiveness (Chelladurai, 2005). The participants considered these factors to be influential for the success of football teams within the Big 12 Conference. Human resources represented the most determinant factor in the input model. The throughput model showed the procedures or strategies implemented by the teams to guarantee the attainment of goals. Finally, in the output model, winning the championship represented the most important goal for coaches and players; however, only the head coaches mentioned other goals, such as having successful programs, having their players graduate, and so forth, as important in their football programs. The results identified the factors perceived to influence success of football teams within the Big 12 Conference in Mexico. These findings will be useful to coaches and players of other football teams in Mexico and enable them to implement the strategies and procedures perceived to lead teams to success.

▼ The dissertation examines the representations of catastrophe that emerge in Mexico City following the devastating 1985 earthquake and the upheaval of the nineties. The study focuses on novels published between 1987 and 1997: Cristóbal Nonato by Carlos Fuentes; Casas de encantamiento by Ignacio Solares; La leyenda de los soles and ¿En quién piensas cuando haces el amor? by Homero Aridjis; and Cielos de la Tierra by Carmen Boullosa. The dissertation explores how the fantastical conjoining of distinct temporalities and the fragmented narrative structures in these novels of catastrophe permit a critical perspective on Mexico’s path towards development. I argue that these writers make use of science fiction techniques to deconstruct temporality and to prompt the reader to contemplate whether Mexico’s trajectory could have been otherwise. These novels of catastrophe fit within the conceptual framework of contemporary speculative fiction; and two theorists of the science fiction genre, Jean Baudrillard and Frederic Jameson, have provided support for my line of analysis. In contrast to the testimonial and journalistic accounts of the earthquake, centered on a realistic portrayal of the immediate aftermath of the disaster, the novels by Fuentes, Solares, Aridjis and Boullosa present an exaggerated version of the possible, interweaving a more distant “before” and “after” of the catastrophe. Science fiction time in these novels creates free-flowing connections between historical moments and includes a longer, more associative causal chain of events through devices such as time travel, dystopian futurescapes, the existence alternative realities that unfold from a single moment in time, and the displacement of historical or mythical elements. I contend that the novels give a comprehensive depiction of the complexity of the disaster because they are close to the free associations that form the popular imaginary of Mexico City as the site of catastrophe. They draw on Mexico’s unique template for narrating disaster through myth and the story of the Conquest. The writers reveal their political engagement by suggesting that ultimately the present is the only time and space in which fulfillment can happen and in which the potential for social change exists.

▼ This dissertation offers preliminary answers to the question of what scholars and practitioners interested in democratization and urban change in the developing world can learn from the profound changes Mexico City has gone through in the last three decades. It does so by developing an argument at two levels: (1) at the city level, I take Mexico City as an extreme case (Gerring 2007) of late democratization in Latin America (Myers 2002; Davis and Alvarado 2004) as well as a negative case for citizen participation engaging the state when compared with São Paulo, the other most important global and mega-city in the region (Houtzager et al 2005); (2) and at the neighborhood level I take the two oldest and most iconic sections of the central part of Mexico City as local cases. At the level of the city, I argue that Mexico City has been transitioning from a corporatist urban regime (Stone 1989) - similar to the national corporatist regime in place since the 1930s to the 1990s - to what I call a “pragmatic” urban regime - which began to form with the election of leftist party Partido de la Revolución Democrática (Party of Democratic Revolution or PRD) in 1997 and combines strong pro-poor and pro-capital tendencies. At the level of the local cases, an interesting paradox emerges: Centro Histórico (the poorest and worst served of my cases) is advancing more rapidly than Roma Condesa (the neighborhood with better infrastructure and living conditions) in its urban renovation efforts and an increasing number of residents are participating in defining and implementing those efforts while the opposite is true in Roma Condesa. The presence of a state institution that serves as facilitator of consensus and “institutional catalyst” (Bhatta 2006) in Centro Histórico has been the key difference between the two cases. These findings suggest that the (local) state continues to be a crucial actor for overcoming fragmentation and solving public problems in urban contexts and that “invited” or induced participation (Cornwall and Coelho 2007; Roque and Shankland 2007) can be crucial even if it is limited.

▼ By looking into the role of Blackness, or negritud, in nineteenth-century discourses of nation I seek to formulate a new understanding of Mexico's national identity, but primarily a new theoretical understanding of ethnic relations in the period after independence. In Black Mexico I investigate the social and political processes that contributed to the eventual?but by no means inevitable??disappearance' of Blacks and all things African from the national self-consciousness of modern Mexico. To be more precise, I provide answers to the following questions: In the absence of racial categories in post-independence Mexico how did the understanding of what it meant to be Black change for former Blacks and for non-Blacks? More importantly, how did these definitions fit within the evolving concept of "Mexicanness"? In Black Mexico I seek to make clear the role of Blacks and Blackness in nineteenth-century Mexican discourses of nation and to document their contributions to the makeup of mestizaje. While the discourse of mestizaje is attributed to the twentieth century, I argue that in fact similar discourses and notions of racial equality were taking place as early as the nineteenth century, demonstrating that the ideology of mestizaje was the culmination of a historical process. José Vasconcelos did not theorize this ideology so much as name it. On the one hand, racial discourse served as a unifying force in post-independence Mexico. On the other hand, however, the ideology of racial mixture, in general, and of mestizaje, specifically, led to the erasure of all things African. In reality, Blacks "disappeared" through omission from nineteenth-century discourses of race and nation, a process I call the Black exception?a process that was by no means inevitable. Through a episodic approach to various forms of discourse, including literary, historical, national, and local, I show how the historical record may be mined for evidence of the conflicting ideologies determining the context of the roles that Blacks would play?or would not be allowed to play?in the new nation.

This dissertation examines the growth and development of contemporary Mexico City from the Mexican Revolution through the present. The twentieth century birthed two Mexican ‘monsters’, I argue, the PRI—the ‘ruling party’ that dominated Mexican politics for roughly seven decades until its ouster in 2000—and the capital, Mexico City. I pay special attention to the relationship between these two leviathans as they struggled through a century of revolutionary changes. An historical exploration of this relationship yields three interrelated conflictual trajectories, each of which receives in turn a more targeted investigation through specific cases. I explore the first of these, the city’s proliferating environmental, political, social, economic, and other crises, most of an increasingly dire character, through an examination of the history of ‘the right to the city’ in Mexico City from its earliest conceptualizations in the late 1980s though the public endorsement of the Mexico City Charter for the Right to the City in 2010. My investigation moves through the second trajectory, the troubled path of democratization and party politics in the capital city, by way of a largely ethnographic engagement with a planned redevelopment project along one of the city’s historic boulevards, Avenida Chapultepec. I follow the third trajectory, the growing tension between the city and the national state and the PRI—which appears in several distinct manifestations—through an historical reconstruction of the decades-long processes of ‘political reform’ by which the city finally achieved its political “emancipation” in January of 2016, and an 2 ethnographic exploration of the contemporary social and political context surrounding these ideas and events. Taken together, the cases here considered contribute several significant conclusions and open up several new avenues for the study of urban political geography. My approach to dialectical investigation provides a basis for innovative methodological and empirical considerations, not least in the way of political imaginaries elaborated in pursuit of radical change and the potential implications thereof. The plural and shifting meanings of revolution in Mexico City, the process of battling seemingly incontestable hegemonies, and the dangers and benefits of grassroots social and political movements forging partnerships with political parties or arms of the state all likewise hold potentially pathbreaking insights for the study of the character and pace of urban political change.

▼ Mexico’s center territory, Valle de Mexico, is the most populated and developed area in the country. Although it is also the wealthiest area of the country, its unreasonable size gives rise to issues that require prompt attention. The problem of supplying water to the urban region of Mexico City and the metropolitan area is extremely complex due to the interconnection it has with different factors such as public affairs, social conflicts, consequences for the environment, energy – water nexus, economic investments, among others. This research evaluates the problem of water supply by examining the key driving forces that impact reliability of the supply as perceived by residents. A literature review revealed that the water crisis in the region is closely coupled with many social and economic issues. Energy-water nexus connections are a significant driver in water governance activities because the majority of water agency budgets, estimated to be 80%, is directed to electric bills rather than mitigation, monitoring or maintenance. Yet these relationships are based on limited information from the field and, therefore this study takes initial steps to fill the gap in knowledge about water supply conditions by collecting ground truth data related to the observations and perceptions of resident via interviews and surveys. Results of surveys and responses from approximately 192 participants completed between July and August 2017 indicate that there are two different categories of water shortage in the Valle de Mexico. The first is related to non-mitigation of infrastructure failures, such as leaks and broken pipes, while the second is that water users do not conserve the resource when it is available. Interestingly, the second type of water shortage is exacerbated by the beliefs and perceptions of residents in the region because their behaviors reflect a pattern of overconsumption when water is present in the system. The result is an increase in periods without water supply in the system driven purely by use patterns. This result highlights the urgent need to better understand the mindset of users to guide future urban development. Improving understanding about the drivers behind water scarcity in the Valle de Mexico is useful in relation to the water sector, as well as all of the other sectors and aspects that will negatively impact the lives of residents. All the inhabitants of Mexico, regardless of their actual role, must become primary actors working together on this complex and often intimidating issue.

▼ : This dissertation thematizes masculinity in Mexico's post-NAFTA configurations of subjectivities and bodies, and in the geocultural politics of race and gender in order to analyze how male identities are produced and reified within these intersecting structures of oppression. It encompasses questions of resistance, gender categories established by nationalism and late capitalism, and modern/colonial power relations. I explore cinematic and literary engagements with maleness in order to demonstrate how collusion between neoliberal economic interests and the state's established political and cultural framework of power conceals the deployment of gendered concepts of citizenship and subjectivity as a mechanism to exercise control over Mexican bodies. I conceptualize this process in terms of a violent colonial strategy of subjection which coerces men to internalize normative codes of masculinity based on essentialist categories of race, sexuality, biological sex, and space. I address relevant scholarly debates in postcolonial studies and discussions of neoliberalism's impact on culture, politics and identity. In my first chapter, I examine patriotic male performances in northern Mexico as portrayed in the novels Duelo por Miguel Pruneda (2002) and El ejército iluminado (2006) by David Toscana. I posit that through their efforts to overcome U.S. imperialism northern males in these texts are revealed as dominated subjects for whom national masculinity is a failing model for resistance. My second chapter analyzes how Carlos Reygadas's film Batalla en el cielo (2005) illustrates the disciplinary function of nationalist gender clichés through allusions to Mexican Golden Age cinema. I argue that the film's concern with revealing contradictions between idealized gender performances and actual conditions of Mexican males questions masculinity as a source of agency for brown bodies. Next, my chapter on Mario Bellatin's Salón de belleza (1994) explores the effects of globalized male ethics as manifested in the mortification of masculine bodies. I show how the failure of the narrator's strategies of subverting gender politics reflects the ineffectiveness of feminist conceptions of the ethics of care as the foundation for challenging the conditions of oppression and suffering in non-Western spaces. My final chapter demonstrates how Alfonso Cuarón's Y tu mamá también (2001) and Carlos Cuarón's Rudo y Cursi (2008) produce an intertextual farce directed at the gender codes of mexicanidad by depicting the disposability of impoverished bodies and by highlighting how the models of masculinity linked to narco culture have become the only viable form of identity for Mexican males under globalization.

▼ Starting in 1982 Mexico embarked on an economic transition that shifted the Mexican market to export-based development. In 2000, as this model was becoming firmly entrenched, Mexico experienced a democratization process. This paper explores and maps the responses and adaptations of labor unions and confederations in Mexico in the face of the country's dual transitions. It employs concepts from the union revitalization literature of the Global North, uses Bensusán's (2004) typology of unions in Mexico, and draws on data from union literature and interviews with union leaders. By employing the concept of the servicing model of unionism, I describe how the previous political exchange between the state and labor unions can be understood as a "corporatist servicing model." The economic transition disrupted the corporatist servicing model, but unions did not engage in revitalization processes due to the combined weakness of their organizations and strength of the government. In the face of the political transition, however, some unions have surprised observers by expanding their use of revitalization tactics. Some unions in the new democratic context are expanding their autonomy and becoming more responsive to union members. Despite this movement toward more responsible, authentic unionism, these unions still refrain from a full, transformative revitalization project. In most cases the government's repressive powers still limit the ability of labor organizations to sustain strong critique of employers or the government. While democracy has allowed some unions to implement revitalization tactics, the political and economic atmosphere continues to limit many unions' desire to implement transformative revitalization projects. Unions' ability to fundamentally revitalize, or to alter their strategy beyond autonomous cooperation with employers, continues to be impeded by the remaining repressive power of the government. This context allows union leaders to use revitalization tactics to reinforce their positions without fully transforming the union. Thus we see union leaders using revitalization tactics for purposes that are antithetical to the true purpose of union revitalization.

My dissertation explores the history of Veracruz during the transition to Mexican independence through a focus on traders, vendors, and mule drivers ⎯ the people who formed the chains of connection that linked this region together and connected it not only to Mexico, but also the Atlantic world. I shift the ways that scholars have traditionally looked at Veracruz, as bound by the nation-state, and investigate the position of Veracruz inward towards the nation and outward towards the Atlantic world to demonstrate Veracruz's local, regional, national, and transnational connections which are crucial to understanding the history of both Veracruz and Mexico. This dissertation explores the chaotic transition to Mexican independence through a focus on the lives and politics of early nineteenth-century plebeian traders and their networks (traders, vendors, mule drivers, and dockworkers) ⎯ a crucial, but understudied community ⎯ in the port city of Veracruz. These actors played a pivotal role in forming the chains of connection that bound the inhabitants of Veracruz together, connected Veracruz to the rest of Mexico, and fostered the ties that helped bind Veracruz to the Atlantic world. This project reveals that in connecting Mexico to the wider Atlantic world, Veracruz and its petty traders provide a transnational lens for understanding this period, one that takes seriously the flows of goods, people, and ideas, which is often overlooked by scholarship informed by regionalist and nationalist narratives. In foregrounding the nation-state, the historiography has tended to overlook Veracruz's position as a local, regional, national, and transnational center. In fact Veracruz, like other port cities, existed as an important liminal space receiving social, economic, and political influences from various places. This project begins in 1821, when the majority of Mexico addressed the building of the newly independent Mexican nation; Veracruz remained a contested space between the Spanish and Mexican militaries, demonstrating the significance of the port for Mexico and Spain. The study ends in 1850 after the introduction and use of Mexico’s first railroad, which departed from the port city of Veracruz. This railroad marked the reduction of the importance of the road system for transporting goods, led to an increase of goods transported across Mexico and exemplified Mexico’s transition from a period of the confluence of colonial and independence practices to a stage of sought after modernization.

Introduction – Chapter 1. The study of environmental citizenship in Latin America and post-authoritarian Mexico – Chapter 2. The case of the Zapotillo dam and research methods – Chapter 3. Constitutional discourse on the environment, water and citizenship – Chapter 4. Acts and institutions of water in Mexico – Chapter 5. Civil society and social movements – Chapter 6. Community responses – Chapter 7. Environmental citizens – Chapter 8. Conclusions.

This thesis is about the new forms of environmental citizenship emerging in Mexico as the state makes the political and economic transition from authoritarianism to neoliberal forms of democracy. An environmental movement emerged in the 1990s and created environmental institutions, regulations and policies. Thereafter environmental social movements arose around diverse environmental issues. One of those issues has been large dam projects and environmental conflicts around them.

Theories of environmental citizenship have been framed by political science, based on the rights and duties of citizens who are members of a political unit, usually based on a democratic model. Empirical research has explored environmental citizenship in democratic and developed countries more than developing countries – where citizenship is shaped by different socio-economic processes. In Latin America, complex socio-political systems and different levels of democratic quality have shaped environmental citizenship. The contribution of this thesis is to research what environmental citizenship translates into in developing contexts, which are undergoing democratic transitions. It pursues, in particular, the case of Mexico which, despite the democratic advances of recent decades, still bears the historic imprint of its earlier authoritarianism.

An innovative array of experimental methods is used to approach environmental citizenship in order to capture the complexity of the transition in Mexico. Temacapulín and the Zapotillo dam project are analysed at different levels and in different spaces, focusing on the federal constitution, government policies and institutions, civil society, communities, and within individual lives. The study indicates that environmental citizenship is emerging as political spaces open up in Mexico, yet these spaces are constrained by history and opportunity, reflecting quite different dimensions to how environmental citizenship is imagined in developed countries.

The Zapotillo project is a dam to be built on the Verde River, in Jalisco. The dam would principally supply water to the cities of León and Guadalajara, and to a smaller extent to Los Altos, the region where the dam is located. The dam would displace three small Los Altos towns: Temacapulín (or Temaca), Acasico and Palmarejo. An environmental movement, led…

▼ This dissertation explores the sociopolitical dimensions of transboundary conservation on the post 9/11 Big Bend U.S.–Mexico border, one of the most ecologically complex and biologically diverse arid regions on earth. Six protected areas – three in Texas and three in Mexico – comprise the Big Bend Transboundary Conservation Network where the states of Texas, Chihuahua, and Coahuila meet. This conservation network contains multiple levels of social and political organization that complicate collaborative conservation as it travels across international, institutional, and cultural boundaries. A processual and relational border theory framework combined with ethnographic data informs this research. I investigate cross-scale institutional interplay at the intersection of homeland security and natural resource management along the U.S. side of the Big Bend border, with analytical attention paid to the relations between the U.S. Border Patrol and Big Bend National and Texas State Parks. I then analyze institutional relations across the border, between natural resource managers in Texas and in Mexico, to identify obstacles to collaborative, binational transboundary conservation. Last, I investigate the relationship between resource use and conservation inside Mexico’s Área de Protección de Flora y Fauna Cañón de Santa Elena, with analytical focus given to the contested meanings of natural resource and conservation among cattle ranchers and resource managers. The rebordering of the U.S. border as a militarized security mechanism in the war on terror complicates transboundary conservation in the Big Bend borderlands by enclosing shared geographical space as the authoritative jurisdiction of the U.S. Border Patrol and by erecting policy barriers to international collaboration across the border between resource managers from the U.S. and Mexico. The rebordering of a utilitarian landscape as Área de Protección de Flora y Fauna Cañón de Santa Elena in Mexico has created social tension between resource users and resource managers.

▼ The cinematography of Mexican director Carlos Reygadas is the main focus of this dissertation, which aims to validate the artistic quality of his four films: Jap?n, Batalla en el Cielo, Luz Silenciosa and Post Tenebras Lux; define the creator?s creative style; find references and key influences of his cinematographic approach; and recognize his identification with the typology of poetic cinema, as a reactive model to narrative and cultural cinematographic formulas. To complete this present work, the conceptualizations of six emblematic figures in cinema were chosen as the dissertation?s theoretical foundation: Luis Bu?uel, Robert Bresson, Pier Paolo Pasolini, ?ric Rohmer, Andrei Tarkovsky and Abbas Kiarostami. Based on their perceptions of film, resemblances are noted, whether consciously or unconsciously referenced by Carlos Reygadas. Characteristics of poetic cinema are analyzed, including how such creators interpreted the use of sounds, editing, scene duration, space, dialogue of characters or models, importance of the creator?s ethical values, methods of choosing and developing themes, and technical resources for handling images, among others. The poetic implications of Carlos Reygadas, a creator focused on stimulating an individual?s sensory perception through the proper use of key cinematic tools ?using image and sound to create a sense of time? are confirmed through a series of interviews done by the creator following his four films. In these interviews, reoccurring content in his speech is consistent: symbolism of titles, story ideas, use of non-actors, creative methods, filming process, sound and music, sex and faith, nature, references to film and literature, use of space and time, presence of death and the grotesque, and other technical elements. Finally, these and other cinematic elements and their variations in the four feature films by this director are discussed, which together validate the affirmation that Carlos Reygadas is one of the most representative creators of poetic cinema in the early twenty-first century throughout the Americas and worldwide.

▼ The Kemp?s ridley sea turtle, Lepidochelys kempii, is recovering from devastating declines that reduced nesting activity from a single-day estimate of 10,000- 40,000 females in 1947 to fewer than 300 during all of 1985. Nesting beach monitoring is crucial to estimating population size and reproductive activity, but in-water data are essential for understanding population dynamics and evaluating management strategies. Hook-and-line, stranding, and nesting records, satellite telemetry, and diet analyses were used to characterize ridley population dynamics and movements in the northwestern Gulf of Mexico during 2003-2007. Recreational hook-and-line captures comprised approximately one third of non-nesting encounters along Galveston and Jefferson Counties, Texas. The hook-and-line dataset displayed similar geographical and monthly trends to that of strandings, but was devoid of pelagic-stage, subadult, and adult ridleys. Coastal and bay waters along the upper Texas and western Louisiana coasts were utilized by immature ridleys during warmer months. Nesting occurred along Galveston Island on both armored and unarmored beaches. Inter-nesting females exhibited fidelity to Galveston during nesting season and subsequently migrated to federal waters offshore Louisiana. Crabs were important components of benthic-stage (>25 cm SCL) ridley diet, while worm tubes were targeted by some individuals. Short satellite track durations for immature ridleys precipitated examinations of biofouling, attachment protocols, and turtle excluder device (TED) interactions. Antifouling paints drastically reduced fouling of transmitters. A less-rigid neoprene attachment method was developed to increase transmitter retention on fast-growing juveniles, but further trials are necessary. Transmitters were not damaged or lost during TED trials, but turtle escape times increased when transmitters wedged between TED bars. Projected population growth will increase numbers of Kemp?s ridleys utilizing the Gulf of Mexico and interacting with human activities. Future research should examine year-round distribution and abundance of all life history stages and further characterize recreational hook-and-line capture, nesting activity, movements, and diet. Education efforts targeting the beach-going public, beach residents and workers, and the recreational fishing sector should be employed to promote sea turtle reporting and minimize negative interactions. State and federal managers should examine anthropogenic impacts within the region and determine the need for mitigation and/or regulations to promote continued species recovery.
