Pearce This thesis analyzes the urban structure development of two Latin American cities through an interactive longitudinal visualization of the Salvadoran cities of San Salvador (the capital of El Salvador) and Santa Tecla. To what extent is a hypothetical model relevant to either of these two cities? How can a longitudinal, interactive visualization assist with an comparative analysis of the relevance of urban expansion models to the development of San Salvador and Santa Tecla? Can such a visualization contribute to the delineation of urban expansion policies for these cities? Archival files and maps were digitized and vectorized to create animated urban evolutions for each city. These geovisualizations were compared to the hypothetical models presented by Borsdorf, Bähr, and Janoschka (2002) in order to assess their relevance. The analysis indicated that the urban structural development of each city was more complex and differentiated than the theoretical model, findings richly supported by the geovisualizations. If combined with more specific annual land use data, these visualizations can also be useful for guiding urban management.

  • TRIFINIO: Transboundary Aquifer Systems in the Upper Lempa River Basin, El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, in Central America
    International Conference “Transboundary Aquifers: Challenges and New Directions”(ISARM2010) TRIFINIO: Transboundary Aquifer Systems in the Upper Lempa River Basin, El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, in Central America Mario Samuel Buch1 ; José Mario Guevara2 (1) GTZ-German Technical Cooperation, and Trinacional Commission for the Trifinio Plan, Esquipulas, Guatemala. email: [email protected] (2) National Executive Direction for the Trifinio Plan of El Salvador. email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The Trinacional Commission for the Trifinio Plan is managed by the respective national deputy presidents and works under the slogan ‘Water without borders’, recognizing the importance of water resources for these three countries. This study includes homogenization of existing geological descriptions of different geological units in the Trifinio region. Physical and chemical parameters were measured in the field for about 140 samples. Geoelectrical campaigns were carried out in selected areas to reveal information about the location and hydraulical properties of the principal aquifers. Thus, the first hydrogeological map of the Trifinio region was generated with a scale of 1:100 000. The preliminary results have shown the chemical and isotopic similarities between most surface waters and groundwaters, suggesting both a fast dynamic for most systems and the relevance of local sources of recharge. The precipitation presents a high temporal variation in deuterium (-105.60 ‰ ≤ δ2H 21.66 ‰) and oxygen-18 (-14.76 ‰ ≤ δ18O ≤ 1.37 ‰), due to the combined effects of amount and altitude. Also, a strong seasonally effect can be found. Tritium was determined in 29 samples from wells, springs, rivers and lakes from El Salvador. Observed maximum activity was of 2.09 UT and a minimum of 0.00 UT.

The region is strategically important for the water balance of three large water catchment areas – the Lempa River in El Salvador, the Motagua River in Guatemala and the Ulúa River in Honduras – and is especially affected by the impacts of climate change. The project promoted sustainable management of natural resources in this area through three components: (1) strengthening environmental management in water catchment areas (16% of funds), (2) adapted and sustain- able management of soil, water and vegetation resources (44%) and (3) improving the management of selected protected areas (8%). Project management costs (32%) were predominantly covered by the executing agency. The project executing agency was the tri-national Trifinio Commission (CTPT), a sub-organisation of the Central American Integration System (SICA). Development objectives: The project objective was to enable residents and administrative bodies of the water catchment areas and protected areas to sustainably manage natural resources (outcome) to contribute to preserving the natural re- sources’ economic, ecological and climate-sensitive roles under the conditions of climate change in the Trifinio Region (higher- level objective).

  • Climate Prediction Center's Central America Hazards Outlook October 9
    Climate Prediction Center’s Central America Hazards Outlook October 9 – October 15, 2014 Heavy rains expected along Pacific Basin of Central America during the next outlook period. 1) Consistent heavy and above-average rains over the past few weeks have resulted in flooding and landslides over the San Marcos department of western Guatemala. Potential for flooding remains high as additional localized heavy rains are forecast during the next week. 2) The development of a weather disturbance off the Pacific coasts of Costa Rica and Nicaragua could potentially bring torrential rains along the Pacific rims of Central America during the next week. This elevates the risks for flooding and landslides over the Pacific North region of Costa Rica and southwestern Nicaragua. Heavy rains forecast along the Pacific rims of Central America. During the past week, Central America experienced a reduction in rainfall relative to that of the prior observation period. While the southwestern and western parts of Guatemala and the Southern Caribbean continued to receive enhanced rains, much of Honduras and Nicaragua recorded little to light rains. In Guatemala, the consistent heavy rains resulted in flooding and landslides, which affected several people over the San Marcos, Suchitepéquez, Zacapa, and Guatemala departments. In Honduras, this past week’s increased rains also caused the Cececapa River of the San Barbara department to overflow and displaced several people. Since early September, above-average rainfall, with some surpluses exceeding 200 mm has been observed over Central America, except parts of western Guatemala, eastern Honduras, and northeastern Nicaragua, where thirty-day rainfall deficits were observed. Although, the observed moisture surpluses have generally helped cropping activities over Central America during the ongoing August – November, Postrera season, excessive and stagnant moisture has already damaged crops over local areas along the Achiguate, Guacalate, Samala, and Motagua Rivers of Guatemala and Lempa River of El Salvador.
