Santa Marta. Colombia. * [email protected] Recibido: 28-02-2011; Aceptado: 11-05-2011 Abstract Recruitment, defined and measured as the incorporation of new individuals (i.e. coral juveniles) into a population, is a fundamental process for ecologists, evolutionists and conservationists due to its direct effect on population structure and function. Because most coral populations are self-feeding, a breakdown in recruitment would lead to local extinction. Recruitment indirectly affects both renewal and maintenance of existing and future coral communities, coral reef biodiversity (bottom-up effect) and therefore coral reef resilience. This process has been used as an indirect measure of individual reproductive success (fitness) and is the final stage of larval dispersal leading to population connectivity. As a result, recruitment has been proposed as an indicator of coral-reef health in marine protected areas, as well as a central aspect of the decision-making process concerning management and conservation. -
Marine Management
MARINE MANAGEMENT GALÁPAGOS REPORT 2015 - 2016 Analysis of agreements reached in the Participatory Management Board 2010-2015 Elvis Llerena, Tania Quisingo and Roberto Maldonado Galapagos National Park Directorate Photo: © Alex Hearn Introduction The Galapagos Marine Reserve (GMR) was created in 1998 within the framework of the Special Law for Galapagos (LOREG or Ley de Régimen Especial para la Conservación y Desarrollo Sustentable de la Provincia de Galápagos; CNE, 1998). Currently, the conservation of resources of the GMR is high and social conflicts have been addressed with the participation of all of its users. This article reviews participatory management of the GMR and the priorities of the Participatory Management Board (PMG) during its last six years of existence, prior to its dissolution under the 2015 reform of the Special Law (National Assembly, 2015). While the human population in the Galapagos Islands increased gradually throughout much of the 20th century, population growth accelerated as a result of burgeoning tourism activity beginning in the 1970s. At first, the local community focused on agricultural activities, hunting, and fishing to sustain their families. Fisheries became a necessity for survival as well as a traditional activity among Galapagos residents. Fishing focused mainly on lobster and white fish, with sea cucumber harvesting beginning in the 1990s. The enactment of the LOREG in 1998 marked an historic milestone for fisheries for two primary reasons: 1) it created the GMR, with an extension of 40 miles measured from the outer coastlines; and 2) it restricted fishing activities within the GMR to local fishermen who were affiliated with a legally constituted fishing cooperative. -

Marco Institucional Y Legal
7 MARCO INSTITUCIONAL Y LEGAL 7.1 INTRODUCCIÓN Este capítulo presenta un marco institucional respecto de las zonas costeras, con especial énfasis en los actores (administradores y usuarios) involucrados en el manejo de la zona costera, así como en los bienes de uso público del dominio marítimo de la Nación ubicados en las zonas costeras, presentando una síntesis sobre su problemática. Igualmente se describe y analiza la situación jurídica de las islas oceánicas y costeras continentales de la Nación, para finalmente hacer una descripción de las políticas sectoriales existentes hoy día y que son tenidas en cuenta en la formulación de las políticas para el ordenamiento ambiental de las zonas costeras. Con este análisis no se pretende agotar el tema pero sí aportar un punto de vista sobre la principal problemática en la zona costera. 7.2 ACTORES Como actores se entiende a todas las personas que intervienen activa o pasivamente en los procesos de gestión para su propio desarrollo o que asisten al proceso. Abarca los habitantes, lo usuarios (habitantes o no del ámbito territorial), los representantes del gobierno, los organismos públicos o privados, los asesores, los representantes de los grupos de poder y en general todas las personas que ven afectada su calidad de vida y que influyen o reciben los efectos del uso y conservación de los recursos del ámbito territorial, así como los que tienen como función apoyar el desarrollo del hombre en dichos ámbitos. La determinación de los actores involucrados en el proceso es una de las etapas más importantes. Son los grupos claves de interés en la problemática de la zona costera que pueden participar en la solución de muchos conflictos costeros. -
Model-Based Geomorphology of Malpelo Island and Spatial Distribution of Breeding Seabirds
Bol. Invest. Mar. Cost. 35 111-131 ISSN 0122-9761 Santa Marta, Colombia, 2006 MODEL-BASED GEOMORPHOLOGY OF MALPELO ISLAND AND SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION OF BREEDING SEABIRDS Mateo López-Victoria1 and Daniel M. Rozo2 1 Department of Animal Ecology and Special Zoology, University of Giessen (JLU), Germany. E-mail: [email protected] 2 Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas y Costeras-INVEMAR (Marine and Coastal Research Institute), Cerro Punta Betín, Santa Marta, Colombia. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The spatial distribution of seabird nests present on Malpelo Island, the main characteristics of the islandʼs topography, and the types of substratum available for nesting were addressed using a Digital Elevation Model (DEM). The model is based on data from remote sensors (satellite images, aerial photography and panoramic photography), and from field data processed through a geographical information system. The nests of Sula granti prevail on the surfaces of Malpelo Island and neighboring islets, while those of the remaining species (S. sula, Creagrus furcatus, Anous stolidus, A. minutus and Gygis alba) are spatially restricted to the cliff margins and to crevices or caverns at different heights. The presence of terrestrial predators and predatory birds (Fregata spp.) seems to mainly explain the marginal distribution of other breeding species. The cartographic data presented here differ significantly from past and current representations, especially those concerning the islandʼs emerged surface and other geomorphologic features. This new cartographical information will support future studies on the terrestrial fauna and flora of Malpelo Island and its islets. KEY WORDS: Seabirds, Nest distribution, Digital Elevation Model, Malpelo Island, Colombia. -

Carbon Stock in Subtropical Native Forests in a South American Protected Area
Nature Conservation Research. Заповедная наука 2021. 6(2): 66–79 https://dx.doi.org/10.24189/ncr.2021.027 CARBON STOCK IN SUBTROPICAL NATIVE FORESTS IN A SOUTH AMERICAN PROTECTED AREA Julian A. Sabattini* , Rafael A. Sabattini , Juan C. Cian , Ivan A. Sabattini National University of Entre Rios, Argentina *e-mail: [email protected] Received: 26.06.2020. Revised: 14.02.2021. Accepted: 24.02.2021. In forests, it is possible to sequester the carbon emitted by industrial activities, although global deforestation has recently increased considerably. Protected Areas make a significant contribution to mitigate negative effects of climate change. In this sense, the aim of this study is to estimate the carbon storage of the different types of subtropical native forests in the Protected Area «Estancia El Caraya» (hereinafter – PA «El Caraya»), located in the Mesopotamian Spinal. The study was carried out in the province of Entre Rios, Argentina. We evaluated the carbon stock in the soil and herbaceous, shrub and tree components of five various environments with native forests as the dominant biome. The soil component represented 81% of the carbon stock in native forest, while the remaining percentage is distributed in trees (11%), shrubs (6%), and herbaceous vegetation (2%). Native -2 -2 forest of PA «El Caraya» stores 0.974 t C × km (3.56 t CO2 × km ), 39.4% less than the world average in this conservation category. These differences are due to the high heterogeneity of the natural environments in the world due to the very diverse ecological conditions. Proper management practice of subtropical native forests in the Spinal Mesopotamian contributes highly to reduction of carbon in atmosphere. -

Fennici 49: 181–191. Geoffroy’s and Pampas cats are small felids with large distribution ranges in South America. A camera trap survey was conducted in the Espinal of central Argentina to estimate abundance based on capture–recapture data. For density estimations we used both non-spatial methods and spatially explicit capture–recapture models (SECR). For Geoffroy’s cat we also obtained density estimates from 8 radio-tracked individuals. Based on the data on 10 Geoffroy’s cats and 7 Pampas cats, non-spatial methods pro- duced density ranges of 16.21–21.94 indiv./100 km2 and 11.34–17.58 indiv./100 km2, respectively. -
Marine Biodiversity in Colombia: Achievements, Status of Knowledge, and Challenges
Gayana 67(2): 261-274, 2003 ISSN 0717-652X MARINE BIODIVERSITY IN COLOMBIA: ACHIEVEMENTS, STATUS OF KNOWLEDGE, AND CHALLENGES BIODIVERSIDAD MARINA EN COLOMBIA: ESTADO ACTUAL DEL CONOCIMIENTO Y DESAFIOS FUTUROS Juan M. Díaz1 & Arturo Acero2 1Programa de Biodiversidad y Ecosistemas Marinos, Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas y Costeras (INVEMAR), Santa Marta, Colombia 2Instituto de Ciencias Naturales, Universidad Nacional de Colombia - INVEMAR, Santa Marta, Colombia ABSTRACT Colombia is recognized as a megadiverse country on the basis of the number of terrestrial animal and plant species occur- ring within its boundaries. However, due to the circumstance that it possesses coasts on both the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean, each of them exhibiting distinct geological, oceanographic, and climatic features, Colombia is perhaps the country with the highest marine biological diversity in South America and one of the most biodiverse in the New World. Although scientific research concerning marine biodiversity of Colombia has a very short history, considerable knowledge has been achieved in the last 10 years, particularly in regard to species inventories and ecosystem characterizations, includ- ing thematic mapping. Relatively accurate estimates about the numbers of species of fishes, birds, mammals, reptiles, and some marine invertebrate groups occurring in Colombian waters are now available, as well as the location, extent, and structure of the major coastal-marine ecosystems, including coral reefs, mangroves, and seagrass meadows.
