Resumen Se ha ingresado el 50,6% de la información bibliográfica recopilada para el desarrollo de la base de información puntual georeferenciada de inventarios de vegetación. Se ha depurado el 68,5% del total de pisos de vegetación de la cartografía digital. Se ha comenzado el proceso de estandarización de la clasificación de pisos de vegetación con el estándar de metadatos del IABIN, encontrando algunas dificultades en el ingreso de información. Las equivalencias entre pisos de vegetación y sistemas ecológicos ya ha sido finalizada. Abstract The 50.6% of the compiled bibliographic references for the development of the georeferenced database of vegetation inventories have been included. The 68.5% of vegetation belts of the digital cartography have been debbuged and fixed. The standarization process of vegetation belts has been begun, entering data into the IABIN ecosystem standard, finding some difficulties in the information entrance. The equivalences between vegetation belts and ecological systems has already been finished. Objetivos del Proyecto 1) Generación de una base de información puntual georeferenciada de inventarios de vegetación. 2) Depuración de cartografía digital de pisos vegetacionales. 3) Estandarizar la clasificación de Pisos de vegetación con los estándares de metadatos de IABIN y con la clasificación de Sistemas Ecológicos de NatureServe. Productos y resultados esperados De acuerdo con los objetivos mencionados, se espera obtener los siguientes resultados: - Una base de datos georeferenciada de puntos con inventarios de vegetación chilena - Una cartografía depurada de pisos de vegetación de Chile (Luebert & Pliscoff 2006) - Un esquema de equivalencias entre la clasificación de pisos de vegetación de Chile (Luebert & Pliscoff 2006) y la clasificación de sistemas ecológicos de NatureServe (2003).

I was able to conduct a preliminary survey in July 1998 in several protected areas in Chile and Bolivia. Here are the results.

  • Transfrontier Ecosystems and Internationally Adjoining Protected Areas 1
    Transfrontier Ecosystems and Internationally Adjoining Protected Areas © 1999 - Dorothy C. Zbicz, Ph.D. - Duke University Nicholas School of the Environment, Box 90328, Durham, NC 27511, USA 1. The “Nature” of Boundaries Nature rarely notices political boundaries. Most of the arbitrarily-drawn political boundaries dividing the Earth into countries were delineated as a result of wars or political compromises, often by geographers never even having set eyes on the land. As a result, these political divisions frequently have severed functioning ecosystems. Although neither animals nor plants recognize these arbitrary boundaries, the fact that humans do often threatens the continued survival of the other species and the ecosystems. As conservation biologists have begun to emphasize the importance of larger-scale ecosystem-based management and regional approaches to biodiversity conservation, political boundaries dividing ecosystems have become even more problematic. For the past 120 years, protected natural areas have been the traditional means of nature conservation. Today these areas encompass approximately 13.2 million square kilometers around the world (Green and Paine 1998). For various reasons, many of these protected areas exist on international boundaries, and many of these suggest the existence of transfrontier ecosystems. These are especially likely where protected areas in different countries adjoin across international boundaries. This paper contains an updated Global List of Adjoining Protected Areas (as of early 1999), referred to earlier as “transfrontier protected areas complexes”1, (Zbicz and Green 1997a) (Zbicz and Green 1997b). Although continually evolving, this list provides a glimpse of the extent of the problem of internationally divided ecosystems and the need for improved transfrontier cooperation 2.

  • Water Availability, Protected Areas, and Natural Resources in The
    MOUNTAINRESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT,VOL. 17, No. 3, 1997, PP. 229-238 WATERAVAILABILITY, PROTECTED AREAS, AND NATURAL RESOURCES INTHE ANDEAN DESERT ALTIPLANO BRUNO MESSERLI, MARTIN GROSJEAN, AND MATHIAS VUILLE Institute of Geography Universityof Berne, Hallerstrasse12 CH-3012 Berne, Switzerland ABSTRACTThe arid Andes between 18? and 30? South are located in the transition zone between the tropical and westerly circulation belts. Precipitation rates are lower than 150-200 mm/yr. Resultsfrom paleoclimatic and isotope hydrologic research suggest that modern recharge of the water resources in this area is very limited, or even below the level of detection. The groundwater resources of today were formed when precipitation rates were greater than at present by a factor of 2.5. Thus, water is a resource that is renewed extremely slowly,or is even non-renewable. The distribution of mountain protected areas along the 7,500 km Andean Cordilleraand the extent of the arid diagonal, the zone of extremely low precipitation that crosses from the western flank in southern Ecuador and Peru to the eastern flank in Argentina, are compared. This indicates the very low density of protected areas within the arid diagonal and the potential for endangerment of diversity in this highly sensitive, dynamic, and harsh environment. Scientific knowledge about the age and origin of water resourcesand maps of water protection zones are the basic elements required for decision making. This type of information should help to resolve the growing conflict between the users of water, especially between the expanding mining industry,conservationists, and local communities concerned with the integrity of the fragile mountain ecosystems.

  • Chile, Bolivia and Peru, 2019
    Tripreport Chile, Bolivia and Peru June 18th till September 18th 2019 Lennart Verheuvel Shutterednature.com Contact: [email protected] Tripreport Chile, Bolivia, Peru (June 18th till September 18th 2019) I always had the plan to go on a big trip when I would finish my studies and after much thinking and planning I decided to go to South-America. I wanted to work on my cat goals but also to work on my Spanish and see some nice birds of course. Mammalwise it was a bit ups and downs. It went very well in the first two weeks but after that things went a bit downhill. Mammalwatching.com was a big help in planning the trip. I will post more photos on my website www.shutterednature.com also with more background stories so for anyone who is interested, go to my website! General comments This section might not interest people so much who already have travelled to South-America, but I just wanted to put some things out there. Language I wouldn’t go do a trip in South-America without knowing a single word of Spanish. Honestly, it’s not that hard and some words are very useful. In all the hostels I’ve slept in only a few of the staff spoke a reasonable amount of English. You will probably be all right, but things will be so much easier if you know just a few words. Also comes in handy when you get arrested in the middle of the night… Transport Planes: I’ve taken about four regular flights in Chile and then another one in Bolivia and one in Peru.

Panero SYSTEMATIC STUDIES IN PYCNOPHYLLUM AND PYCNOPHYLLOPSIS (CARYOPHYLLACEAE) OF THE HIGH ANDES by Martin Enrique Timaná, B.Sc.; M.Sc. 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, 2005 Dedication To my son, Leonardo Martin, miracle child and first Texan in the family, For offering me a smile every single day since birth, And to my wife, Aleyda My friend and companion for many years, For waiting this long It was the best of times, it was the worst of times… Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities For sudden, the worst turns the best to the brave… Robert Browing, Prospice Acknowledgements This Dissertation represents the work of several years as a graduate student at the University of Texas. I would like to thank first and above all my graduate advisor, Dr. Beryl B. Simpson, for her infinite patience and support and the intellectual freedom I received from her during all these years. Thank you, Beryl, with all my heart for believing in me. Based on reading my fellow graduate students’ dissertations, it seems to me that this Acknowledgements section is probably the only segment where (unless I’m told otherwise) I have almost all the freedom to express my personal thoughts in my own style, without either being subject to the approval (or disapproval) of members of my dissertation committee or constrained by the stiff and unattractive style of academic prose.
