Young, Supervisor Kelley A. Crews Gregory W. Knapp Daene C. McKinney Francisco L. Pérez “They Are Drying Out”: Social-Ecological Consequences of Glacier Recession on Mountain Peatlands in Huascarán National Park, Peru by Mary Harding Polk, B.A., M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2016 Acknowledgements The journey to the Cordillera Blanca and Huascarán National Park started with a whiff of tear gas during the Arequipazo of 2002. During a field season in Arequipa, the city erupted into civil unrest. In a stroke of neoliberalism, newly elected President Alejandro Toledo privatized Egesur and Egasa, regional power generation companies, by selling them to a Belgian entity. Arequipeños violently protested President Toledo’s reversal on his campaign pledge not to privatize industries. Overnight, the streets filled with angry protesters demonstrating against “los Yanquis.” The President declared a state of emergency that kept Agnes Wommack and me trapped in our hotel because the streets were unsafe for a couple of Yanquis. After 10 days of being confined, we decided to venture out to the local bakery. Not long after our first sips of coffee, tear gas floated onto the patio and the lovely owner rushed out with wet towels to cover our faces. -
An Introduction to the Bofedales of the Peruvian High Andes
An introduction to the bofedales of the Peruvian High Andes M.S. Maldonado Fonkén International Mire Conservation Group, Lima, Peru _______________________________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY In Peru, the term “bofedales” is used to describe areas of wetland vegetation that may have underlying peat layers. These areas are a key resource for traditional land management at high altitude. Because they retain water in the upper basins of the cordillera, they are important sources of water and forage for domesticated livestock as well as biodiversity hotspots. This article is based on more than six years’ work on bofedales in several regions of Peru. The concept of bofedal is introduced, the typical plant communities are identified and the associated wild mammals, birds and amphibians are described. Also, the most recent studies of peat and carbon storage in bofedales are reviewed. Traditional land use since prehispanic times has involved the management of water and livestock, both of which are essential for maintenance of these ecosystems. The status of bofedales in Peruvian legislation and their representation in natural protected areas and Ramsar sites is outlined. Finally, the main threats to their conservation (overgrazing, peat extraction, mining and development of infrastructure) are identified. KEY WORDS: cushion bog, high-altitude peat; land management; Peru; tropical peatland; wetland _______________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION organic soil or peat and a year-round green appearance which contrasts with the yellow of the The Tropical Andes Cordillera has a complex drier land that surrounds them. This contrast is geography and varied climatic conditions, which especially striking in the xerophytic puna. Bofedales support an enormous heterogeneity of ecosystems are also called “oconales” in several parts of the and high biodiversity (Sagástegui et al. -

WOODWARD, Editor JUNE BLOOM AT THE GARDEN Roses HE great Rose Garden on the east side of the grounds, largely contributed by the T firm of Bobbink 5? Atkins, contains 7,000 or more plants in some 800 varieties and species which will be at their peak the first half of June. To reach the Rose Garden by automobile, turn into the grounds at the second gate going east off Fordham Road; or, follow the road from the Main Entrance toward the rear of the Museum Building, then east and south to the Rose Garden. By subway, the nearest route is by way of the White Plains Road line on the East Side IRT, walk ing westward from the Pelham Parkway Station. Peonies A collection of 240 varieties, including the Saunders hybrids, at the north end of the Main Conservatory, will be in flower in early June. Rhododendrons Starting in late May, the Garden's large collection of rhododendron hybrids will continue to flower during the early part of June. Daylilies Late June and July is the peak season for daylilies, to be seen in the Experimental Garden on the east side of the grounds. Rock Garden While the peak of the season comes in May, many attractive flowering plants will give pleasing color and pattern during June.

ABSTRACT Species of the genus Azorella have been widely studied for the presence of secondary metabolites with biological activities. Azorella pedunculata is the most common species of Azorella genus in Ecuadorian moors. The present study evaluated the oxidative stress-protective and antioxidant effects of methanolic extract from A. pedunculata on A549 cells treated with hydrogen peroxide (for induction of oxidative stress). The DPPH assay (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) was used to assess the antioxidant activity of the extract. Cell viability for extract-treated cells was assessed by the 3-(4, 5- dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. -
