In several developing countries, irrigation represents up to 95 percent of all water withdrawn, and it plays a major role in food production and food security. The agriculture development strategies of most of these countries depend on the possibility of maintaining, improving and expanding irrigated agriculture. However, as the pressure on water resources increases, irrigation is facing growing competition from other water-use sectors and becoming a threat to the environment in an increasing number of regions. In the last decade, the international community has made major efforts to assess the different elements of the water balance and to predict current and future water needs for the different use sectors. However, considerable uncertainty remains concerning the extent and distribution of irrigated land in the world and on agricultural water use, therefore, making it difficult to monitor the irrigation sector adequately. Coverage of irrigated areas in the world, available in a geographical information system (GIS), is the single most important item of information needed to improve future global studies on water and food. The first version of the Digital Global Map of Irrigated Areas was published in 1999 (see table). It consisted of a raster map with a resolution of 0.5 ° by 0.5 ° containing the percentage of the area that was equipped for irrigation around 1995, the so-called irrigation density. To further develop and improve the global GIS coverage of areas equipped for irrigation and to make it available to users in the international community, cooperation was established between the Johann Wolfgang Goethe University in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, and the Land and Water Development Division of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). Through this cooperation, the mapping project has been linked closely to the FAO global information system on water and agriculture, Aquastat. The Aquastat programme collects and disseminates data and information by country and by region. Its aim is to provide users interested in global, regional and national analysis (e.g. policy-makers, decision-makers and researchers) with the most accurate, reliable, consistent and up-to-date information available on water resources and agricultural water management. In order to make thorough analyses, the Aquastat programme collects data from many different sources including national water resources and irrigation master plans, statistics and yearbooks, FAO technical reports, and national and international surveys and reports made available by national and international research centres. The data collected through the Aquastat programme have served as the main source for improving the overall quality and resolution of the Digital Global Map of Irrigated Areas. In addition, the methodology for producing the map has been improved substantially. This has made it possible to increase the spatial resolution of the map to 5 minutes, thus justifying the publication of an improved second version of the Digital Global Map of Irrigated Areas. For Version 2, updated maps of Latin America, Europe, Africa and Oceania have been published. The next step in improving the dataset was the inclusion of updates for the continent of Asia, and for North America. With this update to version 3, the map for the whole globe was generated by using the same methodology. Here we present the update to version 4 which incorporates improvements for the continents of Africa and Europe and for parts of Latin America as well. For the update the inventory of subnational irrigation statistics for the continent was compiled. The reference year for the update of the map is 2000.

  • Thesis Death and the Family: Testing Andean Lineage
    THESIS DEATH AND THE FAMILY: TESTING ANDEAN LINEAGE TOMBS THROUGH CRANIAL NON-METRICS Submitted by Sarah Frances Herrera Department of Anthropology In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Master of Arts Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Fall 2016 Master’s Committee: Advisor: Ann Magennis Co-advisor: Mary Van Buren Michael Lacy Copyright by Sarah Frances Herrera 2016 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT DEATH AND THE FAMILY: TESTING ANDEAN LINEAGE TOMBS THROUGH CRANIAL NON-METRICS Historical records indicate that ancestor worship was practiced as part of ayllu social organization in the Inka empire during the Late Horizon and beginning of the Colonial Period (1440 A.D. - 1650 A.D.). This same set of beliefs and practices is often ascribed to the Late Intermediate Period (900 A.D. – 1440 A.D.) throughout the Andes by many researchers (Doyle 1988; Herrera 2003; Ibarra 2013; Isbell 1997; Mantha 2006; Martiarena 2014). It is important for the study of any site so far removed from the historical records to be cautious when using these documents for the interpretation of the archaeological record. The significance of this study is that little has been done using a bioarchaeological approach to test the assumption that ayllus and ancestor worship were present in the Conchucos region during the Late Intermediate Period. The site of Marcajirca is located on the ridge of a sacred ancestor mountain, Mt Llamoq, in North Central Peru. Although the site is a village, it has an especially large amount of mortuary architecture consisting of above ground tombs or chullpas, as well as caves, and underground structures that contain human remains.

  • Operation Mato Grosso
    Operation Mato Grosso with the youth… … for the poor “…to do Charity is to open a door you can never close” These pages describe the work of Father Ugo de Censi and volunteers of Operation Mato Grosso. 2 Chacas is closer to heaven than any other place on earth Anarchist dreamer and a man of action, the Italian priest Ugo de Censi has carried out in this region, one of the poorest in Peru, a real economic and social revolution. ... The extraordinary beauty of this place is not only physical, but also social and spiritual thanks to Father Ugo de Censi, an Italian priest who arrived in Chacas as pastor in 1976. Tall, eloquent, sympathetic, sturdy and agile, despite being almost ninety years old, he has an infectious energy and willingness capable of moving mountains. In the 37 years that he has been here he has transformed this region, one of the poorest in Peru, into a world of peace and work, of human solidarity and of artistic creativity... retirements... He hates greed and he and believes profit, thatthe sea if of thebur eaucracy,Catholic Church profiteering, is to be insurance, criticized it is for having moved away from the poor and marginalized among whom it was born. The word that appears on his lips most often, imbued with tenderness and poetic accents, is charity... The interesting thing is that this religious man, part anarchist and part dreamer, is the same time, a man of action, a praise-worthy achiever, who without taking a penny from the State and putting in practice his outlandish ideas, has conducted in Chacas and its surroundings, a true economic and social revolution..

  • A Partial Glossary of Spanish Geological Terms Exclusive of Most Cognates
    U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY A Partial Glossary of Spanish Geological Terms Exclusive of Most Cognates by Keith R. Long Open-File Report 91-0579 This report is preliminary and has not been reviewed for conformity with U.S. Geological Survey editorial standards or with the North American Stratigraphic Code. Any use of trade, firm, or product names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government. 1991 Preface In recent years, almost all countries in Latin America have adopted democratic political systems and liberal economic policies. The resulting favorable investment climate has spurred a new wave of North American investment in Latin American mineral resources and has improved cooperation between geoscience organizations on both continents. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has responded to the new situation through cooperative mineral resource investigations with a number of countries in Latin America. These activities are now being coordinated by the USGS's Center for Inter-American Mineral Resource Investigations (CIMRI), recently established in Tucson, Arizona. In the course of CIMRI's work, we have found a need for a compilation of Spanish geological and mining terminology that goes beyond the few Spanish-English geological dictionaries available. Even geologists who are fluent in Spanish often encounter local terminology oijerga that is unfamiliar. These terms, which have grown out of five centuries of mining tradition in Latin America, and frequently draw on native languages, usually cannot be found in standard dictionaries. There are, of course, many geological terms which can be recognized even by geologists who speak little or no Spanish.

  • Las Peripecias De Un Topónimo: Conchucos Como Realidad Geográfica Y Como Espacio Histórico En La Sierra Norte Peruana
    LAS PERIPECIAS DE UN TOPÓNIMO: CONCHUCOS COMO REALIDAD GEOGRÁFICA Y COMO ESPACIO HISTÓRICO EN LA SIERRA NORTE PERUANA Magdalena Chocano* En los estudios de historia regional, el investigador suele definir el espacio a estudiar mediante datos descriptivos de la geografía física y la demarcación política, intentando con este procedimiento fijar un marco en el cual encuadrar la actividad económica, la segmentación social y hasta los fenómenos culturales. Sin embargo, dicho método deja en la oscuridad un importante aspecto del cambio histórico: si entendemos que la segmentación territorial pasada y presente es el producto de una interpretación del espacio y de la ocupación humana del mismo, forjado a lo largo del tiempo, debemos interesarnos en tratar de aprehender dichos fenómenos pues son parte constitutiva de la historia de una región. Es decir, lo ideal sería no sólo observar los nombres sucesivos o simultáneos que han servido para denominar determinados territorios y sus accidentes físicos (la toponimia) y cómo se ha concebido su segmentación (la demarcación)' , sino también aprehender que tras dichos nombres hay concepciones y percepciones diferentes del espacio. Lamentablemente, es un objetivo difícil de alcanzar debido no sólo a la cantidad de fuentes, sino (paradójicamente) a los vacíos que en las mismas existen. Ouútir las incongruencias surgidas históricamente entre toponimias y territorios puede facilitar inicialmente el análisis de una región (sobre todo si nos liuútamos a períodos cortos), pero resulta menos aceptable al abordar períodos más largos. Por lo tanto, corresponde al historiador cuando menos dar cuenta del problema. Es precisamente lo que intento hacer aquí en referencia al topónimo Conchucos, el cual he empleado en otros trabajos por ser la denominación de un corregiuúento colonial, pues al intentar aplicarlo a épocas más tempranas observé desajustes debido a que su contenido y ámbito de significación fue variando desde la etapa prehispánica hasta la republicana.

It was internationally recognized as a Biosphere Reserve under UNESCO's Man and the Biosphere program in 1977 and inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1985. The park is situated in Cordillera Blanca; it is flanked to the east by Callejón de Conchucos valley and to the west by Callejón de Huaylas valley. Snow-capped peaks of majestic heights reaching between 5,000 m and 6,768 m altitude, deep ravines carved out by glacial fluvial erosion, and innumerable sparkling lagoons are all features of this incredible park, which is unparalleled in its beauty. Biodiversity Many rare and endangered flora and fauna species inhabit the park. The vicuña (Vicugna vicugna), spectacled bear (Tremarctos ornatus), and Andean condor (Vultur gryphus) are its most emblematic species. Other important mammals include whitetail deer (Odocoileus virginianus), Incan cougar (Puma concolor incarum), northern viscacha (Lagidium peruanum), and Andean fox also called culpeo (Pseudalopex culpaeus), among others. Native flora of the region is particularly diverse, made up of species from seven distinct life zones.
