Spanish term or phrase: presentes (in this context)
I'm not sure if the first "presentes" in this sentence means current or existing. Help, please. TIA

De manera más específica lo aquí escrito tiene por objetivo presentar los avances en nuestra búsqueda por identificar los procesos de convención matemática presentes de la articulación de las funciones trigonométricas (FT) al corpus del análisis euleriano y presentar las interpretaciones que tal análisis nos ha permitido para dar cuenta de las rupturas conceptuales presentes en su construcción escolar de las funciones trigonométricas.

present


Explanation:
Academics tend to convoluted language, bur are normally very precise in their use of plural and singular. So this refers to "procesos" and it's doubtful he means "procesos presentes" as current. Rather, the processes EXIST in the articulation of the trig functions.... It's the same context as the second "presentes".
