Objetivos Específicos: 1. Aprovechamiento: La extracción de los volúmenes de cosecha con el mínimo impacto al ecosistema y la máxima contribución al desarrollo social y económico. 2. Conservación: Mitigar los impactos ambientales ocasionados por el aprovechamiento para proteger las especies de flora y fauna silvestre, procurando en todo momento mantener la calidad existente de las mismas. 3. Restauración: Programar y realizar la recuperación de áreas que presentan procesos erosivos severos, las afectadas por incendios, plagas y enfermedades forestales, así como las de baja densidad o parcialmente deforestadas. 4. Protección: Programar acciones para prevenir los daños ocasionados por los incendios, plagas, enfermedades, pastoreo y el aprovechamiento de recursos forestales no autorizados. 2 I.1.3 Vigencia del aprovechamiento forestal Los aprovechamientos forestales deben ser motivados hacia una extracción controlable de los recursos disponibles en el área, una de las medidas legales es contar con la autorización del aprovechamiento por la autoridad competente, intensidad de corta de acuerdo a la masa forestal existente y también por el ciclo de corta, este último regula el aprovechamiento en cuanto a años de intervención subsecuentes sin poner en riesgo la calidad integral del área intervenida. El ciclo de corta se puede definir como el tiempo que transcurre para que una misma superficie sea intervenida en dos ocasiones subsecuentes, contemplando las mismas especies, o también como el período prefijado durante el cual todas las áreas de corta han sido tratadas regularmente una vez, conforme al plan de cortas. En este caso específico se propone un ciclo de corta de 20 años con un turno de 60 años en cumplimiento con lo requerido en la NOM-152-SEMARNAT-2006.

DESCRIPCIÓN DEL APROVECHAMIENTO FORESTAL II.1 Información general del aprovechamiento forestal II.1.1 Naturaleza del aprovechamiento forestal. Los aprovechamientos forestales maderables realizados de manera razonable no solo busca el mejoramiento de la economía local de los involucrados,sino que también busca el mejoramiento del área, es decir aumentar la producción para aprovechamientos posteriores, ya que con la extracción de los individuos de acuerdo a la intensidad de corta se elimina competencia, se promueve la regeneración con los claros generados, la composición florística heterogénea se mantiene, entre otros beneficios que en el siguiente análisis se presenta. 4 a) Caracterización técnica: Es importante la planificación en el manejo forestal asi como en las otras actividades que conlleva el aprovechamiento y como una premisa en el aprvechamiento es la determinación del método silvícola que será la pauta de regualcion del aprvechamiento. El aprovechamiento forestal se enmarca dentro del sistema silvícola de selección, por lo tanto no todo el arbolado será derribado sino solamente los autorizados en cuanto a diámetro y especie, con esta medida se induce la recuperación del área con la regeneración natural por rebrotes y semillas por parte de los árboles residuales, además se aplicarán técnicas silvícolas como la reforestación inducida en caso de no presertarse la regeneración natural, esto permitirá minimizar los impactos que se pudieran ocasionar por el proceso del aprovechamiento maderable. Se procurará mantener la cobertura y estructura arbórea con la aplicación de una intensidad de corta y la selección de los individuos, por lo tanto la capacidad productiva se mantendrá cuando el arbolado residual pase a las siguientes categorías diamétricas consideradas en el Programa Selva (Incorporación-Reserva-Aprovechable), diseñado por el Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones Forestales, Agrícolas y Pecuarias (INIFAP). b) Mejoramiento de la estructura arbórea.La propuesta de aprovechamiento forestal en la presente solicitud considera solo dos categorías diamétricas por aprovechar (clasificación diamétrica del INIFAP), se pretende la extracción de arbolado con diámetros reales de 10 a 20 cm para carbón vegetal, y aquellos con diámetros iguales o mayores a 35 cm para la producción de madera en rollo para aserrío y como la finalidad es el aprovechamiento integral del arbolado derribado, las puntas y ramas ( categoría aprovechable) se proponen para la producción de carbón vegetal; en ambos casos se identificaron las que representan un gran potencial para tales fines y que tienen demanda en el mercado. Para favorecer el mejoramiento de la estructura arbórea se tiene una intensidad de corta variable, no se proponen todas las especies sino solo un porcentaje mínimo, quedando en el área una densidad residual muy superior al que se pretende aprovechar. Al extraer el arbolado de la categoría Incorporación y Aprovechable se generan claros que favorece la regeneración y del desarrollo de aquellas especies suprimidas, manteniendo una selva heterogénea, en donde se puede apreciar diversidad de especies arbóreas, arbustivas y herbáceas que se conjugan e interactúan para la definición de la composición y estructura vertical que juegan un papel muy importante en 5 la dinámica de la selva, manteniéndose las relaciones intrínsecas en el ecosistema. Considerando la clasificación por categorías diamétrica que contempla el Software diseñado por el INIFAP (Incorporación, Reserva y Aprovechable), no se afectará significativamente la composición árborea, por lo contrario, se promueve un mejoramiento en el área bajo los siguientes criterios: 1) Para la categoría de 10-20 cm de Dap. Se propone esta categoría dada las exigencias del mercado local para la elaboración de carbón vegetal y de la rentabilidad económica que representa el manejo de individuos con estos diámetros, no se aprovecharán todos los individuos existentes, solo un porcentaje ínfimo comparado con la masa total; para la selección de especies se analizó su presencia y distribución en el área en las diferentes categorías, encontrándose datos de regeneración que indican que la selva tiene buena capacidad de poder regenerarse, ya que con la actividad de aprovechamiento forestal se generarán claros que permitirá el óptimo desarrollo de aquellas especies suprimidas, acorde a los dos tipos de vegetación prevalecientes en

  • Maya Knowledge and "Science Wars"
    Journal of Ethnobiology 20(2); 129-158 Winter 2000 MAYA KNOWLEDGE AND "SCIENCE WARS" E. N. ANDERSON Department ofAnthropology University ofCalifornia, Riverside Riverside, CA 92521~0418 ABSTRACT.-Knowledge is socially constructed, yet humans succeed in knowing a great deal about their environments. Recent debates over the nature of "science" involve extreme positions, from claims that allscience is arbitrary to claims that science is somehow a privileged body of truth. Something may be learned by considering the biological knowledge of a very different culture with a long record of high civilization. Yucatec Maya cthnobiology agrees with contemporary international biological science in many respects, almost all of them highly specific, pragmatic and observational. It differs in many other respects, most of them highly inferential and cosmological. One may tentatively conclude that common observation of everyday matters is more directly affected by interaction with the nonhuman environment than is abstract deductive reasoning. but that social factors operate at all levels. Key words: Yucatec Maya, ethnoornithology, science wars, philosophy ofscience, Yucatan Peninsula RESUMEN.-EI EI conocimiento es una construcci6n social, pero los humanos pueden aprender mucho ce sus alrededores. Discursos recientes sobre "ciencia" incluyen posiciones extremos; algunos proponen que "ciencia" es arbitrario, otros proponen que "ciencia" es verdad absoluto. Seria posible conocer mucho si investiguemos el conocimiento biol6gico de una cultura, muy difcrente, con una historia larga de alta civilizaci6n. EI conodrniento etnobiol6gico de los Yucatecos conformc, mas 0 menos, con la sciencia contemporanea internacional, especial mente en detallas dcrivadas de la experiencia pragmatica.

  • Species List February 20 ‒ 28, 2019 | Written by Bob Meinke
    Southern Belize: Birding & Nature | Species List February 20 ‒ 28, 2019 | Written by Bob Meinke Guide Bob Meinke, with expert local lodge naturalists Marvin and Steven, and 9 participants: Kelly, Isaac, Lenore, Harold, Cindy, Richelle, Beth, Nancy, and Joe SUMMARY We enjoyed a scenic and productive trip, starting with the vast freshwater wetlands at Crooked Tree Lagoon, transitioning on to the montane woodlands of the Mountain Pine Ridge, and ending our tour in the broadleaf forests and mangroves of Toledo District at the southern tip of Belize. Working our way down the length of the country increased our exposure to a wide range of habitats, and with it came a nice assortment of resident and migrant bird species as well as other wildlife. Highlights among the resident species included King Vulture, Bare-crowned Antbird, Black-and-white Owl, Yucatan Jay, White-winged Becard, Ruddy Woodcreeper, Eye-ringed Flatbill, Violet Sabrewing, three species of Trogon, and five species of Kingfisher (with multiple, close-in views of American Pygmy a surprising bonus). And while not unexpected, Keel-billed Toucan, Collared Aracari, Bare-throated Tiger Heron, Montezuma Oropendola, Golden -headed Tanager, Barred Antshrike, and Squirrel Cuckoo were all exquisite reminders of the rich colors and morphological diversity that characterize the avifauna of the Neotropics. North American migrants were also plentiful during our visit, and among the many warblers encountered, Blue-winged, Worm-eating, and Prothonotary stood out among the 21 overwintering species we recorded, most of which were just entering full breeding plumage as they readied for their journey north to the U.S.

    HEATHERLEA TRIP REPORT BELIZE AND THE YUCATAN PENINSULA SUNDAY 18TH NOVEMBER – SATURDAY 1ST DECEMBER 2018 Heatherlea Participants: Richard Allan & Alison Holt, Chris Barrett, Doreen Brown, Colin & Ros Hedderwick, Pat Hogarth, Roslyn Knight and Lesley Raven. Heatherlea Guides: Gabor & Andrea Orban, Scott O'Hara. Sunday 18th November Arrival in Cancun, Mexico. Monday 19th November After an exhaustingly long day travelling out to Mexico, we opted for an 8am breakfast with no organised pre-breakfast walk, however several of the group did get out and explore the hotel’s suburban surroundings at dawn of their own accord. The pre-dawn light was accompanied by the sounds of Royal Tern calling over the sea, with a handful of Magnificent Frigatebird seen with them around sunrise. A couple of Caspian Tern were also spotted by a few, mixed in with the Royal Tern group. Pat had taken a stroll along the beach itself and was alone in finding and photographing Killdeer, Black-bellied (Grey) Plover, Semi-palmated Plover and Least Sandpiper. At the pier she also found a Black-crowned Night-Heron and a Snowy Egret! Instead of hitting the beach, Ros and Scott took a wander down the nearby streets looking for warblers in the gardens along from the hotel. Their first birds of the day were Great-tailed Grackle, Hooded Oriole and Tropical Mockingbird. Brown Pelican flew past, seen by those on the terrace and on the beach too. In the trees and bushes lining the street Yellow-throated, Palm and Canada Warbler were seen, with Great Kiskadee perched on the flood lightings of the local technical school.

The dinners and picnic lunches were excellent and our two superb drivers helped things run smoothly. Our local guide knew many of the key birding spots and we soon racked up a great list of sought after species. One of the real highlights was going out on a boat trip from Rio Lagartos where we enjoyed superb views of many water birds, including American Flamingos, Reddish Egrets darting around, terns, pelicans, a Morelet’s Crocodile and even Common Black Hawks sat around looking for a hand out. The dry thorny scrub produced many more species and a special treat was visiting Muyil Ruins where we not only enjoyed some excellent archaeology but also some great wildlife which including 6 Ocellated Turkeys, many other nice birds and an amazing experience with the loudest Yucatan Black Howler monkey in existence.

Here on the Yucatan Peninsula, the nearby habitats such as woodland and mangrove allowed us to both combine wildlife watching and history, as well as swim in the characteristic underground limestone caves filled with water known as cenotes, and float down a beautiful mangrove channel at Sian Ka’an Biosphere Nature Reserve. We saw or heard 171 species of bird including hundreds of American Flamingos and Yucatan’s unique endemics such as the Yucatan Woodpecker, the Yucatan Jay and the Rose-throated Tanager. Spider monkeys were a highlight at Punta Laguna, large Spiny- tailed Iguanas lounged on top of the ancient buildings at Tulum and five Green Turtles were seen while snorkeling at Akumal. We finished our tour in the fishing town of Rio Lagartos, enjoying both sunrise and sunset boat trips to see the egrets, pelicans, terns and waders living amongst the mangroves.

  • Tropical Birding 2013 Yucatán Report
    The YUCATÁN, the LACANDÓN, and COZUMEL 18 Jan–1 Feb 2013 Leader: Michael Retter Photos by Michael Retter There were a couple alterations to the tour this year, and for the better, I think. Cozumel was included as part of the main tour rather than just an extension, and we took a boat ride up into the pristine Montes Azules Biosphere Reserve. As a result, we had good looks at all of the endemic species and most of the endemic subspecies on Cozumel, and enjoyed thrilling ride up the rushing crystal waters of the Río Tzendales. Along the way, we saw some great birds, such as Scaled Pigeon and King Vulture. While birding the Río Usumacinta marshes on the last day, we had the good fortune to be invited by a kindly farmer to drive around on the levees throughout thousands of acres of rice fields, which afforded us some stellar views of immense numbers of birds. We tallied hundreds of herons, egrets, and Fork-tailed Flycatchers, and clouds of thousands of Grassland Yellow-finches. But of course, the awe-inspiring Maya ruins are the main draw for many who come on this tour, and prolonged views of them are practically guaranteed! 18 Jan Arrival in Cancún 19 Jan A. B.
