  • A Place-Based Approach to the Long Anthropocene

Leigh 4 1 Department of Anthropology, University of Georgia, Athens, GA 30602, USA 2 Laboratoire TRACES-UMR 5608, Université Toulouse-Jean Jaurès, 31000 Toulouse, France 3 Institute for a Sustainable Environment, University of Oregon, Eugene, OR 97403, USA; [email protected] 4 Department of Geography, University of Georgia, Athens, GA 30602, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 14 April 2020; Accepted: 4 May 2020; Published: 9 May 2020 Abstract: Regional- and biome-scale paleoecological analyses and archaeological syntheses in the mountain landscapes of the western Pyrenees suggest that the Long Anthropocene began with agropastoral land use at the onset of the Neolithic. Historical and geographic analyses emphasize the marginality of the western Pyrenees and the role of enforced social norms exacted by intense solidarities of kin and neighbors in agropastoral production. Both are satisfying and simple narratives, yet neither offers a realistic framework for understanding complex processes or the contingency and behavioral variability of human agents in transforming a landscape. The Long Anthropocene in the western Pyrenees was a spatially and temporally heterogeneous and asynchronous process, and the evidence frequently departs from conventional narratives about human landscape degradation in this agropastoral situation. A complementary place-based strategy that draws on geoarchaeological, biophysical, and socio-ecological factors is used to examine human causality and environmental resilience and demonstrate their relationship with the sustainability of mountain landscapes of the western Pyrenees over medium to long time intervals.

  • Case Studies in Reggio Calabria, Italy
    Sustainable Development and Planning X 903 RIVER ANTHROPIZATION: CASE STUDIES IN REGGIO CALABRIA, ITALY ROSA VERSACI, FRANCESCA MINNITI, GIANDOMENICO FOTI, CATERINA CANALE & GIUSEPPINA CHIARA BARILLÀ DICEAM Department. Mediterranea University of Reggio Calabria, Italy ABSTRACT The considerable anthropic pressure that has affected most of Italian territory in the last 60 years has altered natural conditions of coasts and river, thus increasing exposure to environmental risks. For example, increase in soil waterproofing caused a reduction in hydrological losses with a rise in flood flows (with the same rainfall conditions), especially in urban areas. This issue is important in territories like Mediterranean region, that are prone to flooding events. From this point of view, recent advances in remote sensing and geographical information system (GIS) techniques allow us to analyze morphological changes occurred in river and in urban centers, in order to evaluate possible increases in environmental risks related to the anthropization process. This paper analyzes and describes the effects of anthropization process on some rivers in the southern area of the Reggio Calabria city (the Sant'Agata, Armo and Valanidi rivers). This is a heavily anthropized area due to the presence of the airport, highway and houses. The analysis was carried out using QGIS, through the comparison of cartography data of the last 60 years, which consists of aerophotogrammetry of 1955, provided by Italian Military Geographic Institute, and the latest satellite imagery provided by Google Earth Pro. Keywords: river anthropization, flooding risk, GIS, cartography data, Reggio Calabria. 1 INTRODUCTION The advance in anthropogenic pressure observed in Italy over the last 60 years [1], [2] has increased vulnerability of territory under the action of natural events such as floods [3]–[5], debris flow [6], [7], storms [8], [9] and coastal erosion [10], [11].

  • Cultural Landscape in the Times of Sustainable Development

It discusses relations between the landscape policy and the ideas of sustainable de- velopment. It discusses factors and stages of transformation of cultural landscapes. Cultural landscape is considered as a whole, as the basis and background for human activities, and a peculiar palimpsest – the source of meanings and symbols. Ecological ethics is the reflection of contemporary aware atti- tude of the man towards the environment. It is also expressed in sustainable development of land- scape. It the times of continuous consumption of landscape, the author gives reasons why it is neces- sary to expand the activities related to sustainable development on the physiognomy of the environ- ment, that is the cultural landscape. Sustainable landscape management should take into considera- tion multiple areas where eco-development is carried out: ecological, social, economic, technical, legal, political and ethical areas. These issues concern not only the need to work out mechanisms and tools for effective protection, but first of all appropriate landscape design and management, and, more and more frequently, social participation.

Abstract: The accelerated rate of environmental degradation of the Mexican Caribbean coast is alarming. In this work, spatial analysis procedures were applied to study relationships among wave and wind climates, water quality, and environmental degradation of the principal coastal ecosystems. We found an increasing North-South gradient in the preservation state of the coastal ecosystems, related to the degree of anthropization of the coastline. In the north, all analysed stressors Citation: Guimarais, M.; exert high pressure on coral reefs, seagrass meadows, mangroves, and dunes, and cause chronic Zúñiga-Ríos, A.; Cruz-Ramírez, C.J.; coastline erosion.

  • Anthropization and Growth of the Electricity Grid As Variables for the Analysis of Urban Infrastructure

The study of urban infrastructure through the analysis of anthropization coupled with power network growth can produce a tool that supports sustainable infrastructure planning, both economic and environmental. The case study focuses on Ambato, Ecuador, in the period from 1950 to 2019, and assesses quantitatively the changes in the city layout and the evolution of its power network. The data are adjusted to a sigmoid-type objective function through a non-linear least squares problem, that is solved using the Broyden–Fletcher–Goldfarb–Shanno (BFGS) method. Anthropization data show how the urban area grew during the study period: 37% (1950–1960), 53% (1960–1970), 80% (1970–1980), 35% (1980–1990), 39% (1990–2000), 38% (2000–2010), and 11% (2010–2019), mostly at the expense of agricultural land.

  • National Assessment Report on Mercury in Cambodia
    National Assessment Report on Mercury in Cambodia Prepared by: Department of Hazardous Substance Management, General Directorate of Environmental Protection, Ministry of Environment Supported by: United Nations for Environment Programme, Division of Technology, Industry and Economics, The International Environmental Technology Centre (IETC) August 2016 Acknowledgement The completion of this report could not have been possible without participation and assistance of many people whose names may not all be listed. Their contributions are sincerely appreciated and grateful acknowledged. However, The Department of Hazardous Substance Management, would like to express its deep appreciation and indebtedness particularly to following: His Excellency Say Samal, Minister of Environment, His Excellency Heng Nareth, Director General for Environmental Protection for their kind support in the preparation of this report and the implementation of Mercury Initial Assessment project United Nations for Environment Programme, Division of Technology, Industry and Economics, The International Environmental Technology Centre (IETC) for providing financial and technical support for implementation of Mercury Initial Assessment project which this report is part of. Executive Summary In October 2013, Cambodia endorsed the notification of signatory of Minamata Implementation Plan for the UNEP Global Mercury, currently under implementation process. This plan is an indication of a new effort by Cambodia to provide additional guidance in the form of specific goals, objectives and actions for the sound management of mercury. In the Kingdom of Cambodia, the use of hazardous substances, especially the mercury substances are not normally managed in an environmentally sound manner and there is no specific government institution responsible for mercury management. Therefore, management of mercury and mercury-containing wastes in Cambodia is a collaboration of various ministries within a government.
