  • La Conservación De Los Bosques Tropicales En El Cantón De Mora, Costa Rica (1915-2017)
    La conservación de los bosques tropicales en el cantón de Mora, Costa Rica (1915-2017) Ronald Eduardo Díaz Bolaños Luis Omar Mora Sandí “Los bosques de la Hacienda El Rodeo [en el cantón de Mora] representan un patrimonio de gran valor por ser la última extensión considerable de bosques maduros pertenecientes a las zonas de vida del bosque húmedo tropical en el Valle Central. De los bosques pertenecientes a esta zona de vida dentro del Valle Central, solo quedan parches muy pequeños (en su mayoría, alterados) en las orillas de los ríos principalmente”. Adelaida Chaverri Polini (1947-2003) ,1 1979. Introducción El presente trabajo constituye una revisión bibliográfica de cuanto se ha investigado en relación con la conservación de los bosques tropicales del cantón de Mora, un municipio localizado al oeste de San José, capital de la República de Costa Rica. Este territorio, que se ha visto sometido a un intenso proceso de urbanización en las últimas décadas, resguarda una de las pocas zonas verdes que todavía se conservan en el Valle Central, región que alberga la mayor parte de la población y las actividades económicas que tienen lugar en el país. A través del análisis de diversos artículos de revistas, tesis, libros y publicaciones en líneas, fue posible reconstruir los procesos de conservación de los territorios forestales, en particular de la Zona Protectora El Rodeo, cuyos bosques 1 Adelaida Chaverri Polini, Análisis de un sistema de reservas biológicas privadas en Costa Rica, Tesis de Maestría del Programa Conjunto de Estudios de Posgrado en Ciencias Agrícolas y Recursos Naturales, Universidad de Costa Rica, Centro Agronómico Tropical de Investigación y Enseñanza, 1979, p.
