Its source has therefore intrigued scholars and explorers for centuries. A river’s source is often defined as the most distant upstream point in the drainage basin. For the past several decades, the longest upstream extension of the Amazon River has been held to be the Nevado Mismi area of the Río Apurímac drainage. We overturn this longstanding view by employing topographic maps, satellite imagery, digital hydrographic datasets and GPS tracking data to show that the Cordillera Rumi Cruz (10.7320°S, 76.6480°W; elevation ∼5220 m) in the Río Mantaro drainage lies 75–92 km further upstream than Nevado Mismi.

Mariscal Castilla N° 3909-4089, Huancayo, Perú 2Universidad Nacional Intercultural “Fabiola Salazar Leguía” de Bagua, Jr. Comercio N° 128, Bagua, Perú Received: 5 August 2020 Accepted: 28 November 2020 Abstract In late December 2019, the emerging disease COVID-19 was identified as a global pandemic. Countries around the world have implemented various types of blockades to stop this infection. These health measures have led to a significant reduction in air pollution. However, the impact of these measures on aquatic environments has been little analyzed. In this context, the water quality of rivers in the Mantaro River basin was evaluated using multivariate statistical methods and heavy metal contamination indices during the health crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic. Surface water samples were collected in triplicate from 15 sampling sectors at the end of the rainy season, between March and April. Concentrations of Cu, Fe, Pb, Zn and As were determined by the method of atomic absorption flame spectrophotometry. The average concentrations of heavy metals and arsenic in the rivers evaluated did not exceed the environmental quality standards for drinking water of the Peruvian, WHO and US EPA regulations, except for Pb, Fe and As in the Mantaro River and As in the Chia River.

Abstract (Limit: 200 words) This report is the result of an investigation of a massive landslide on the Mantaro River in Peru on April 25, 1974 which killed 450 people. It describes the landslide and events immediately following, which affected inhabitants and structures for a great distance downstream from the event. Vibrations caused by the mQving earth were equiva- lent to a magnitude 4.5 earthquak~.< The slide dammed the river and formed a lake which reached a depth of about 170 m and a length of about 31 km before overtopping the dam. Severe flooding caused the evacuation of 1000 people and destroyed roads, farms, and bridges. A description of the nature of the inspection trip is followed by detailed geographical and background data, nature of the slide material and mechanism of sliding, secondary effects, hydraulic model studies, seismological aspects, and disaster relief.

The determination and quantification of total heavy metals in water samples collected monthly from the production sites and in 28 trout that averaged 250 g and 27 cm was performed by atomic absorption spectrophotometry, according to the methodology recommended by FAO. Levels of Zn, Fe and Pb were found to exceed the environmental quality standards established by the Peruvian Ministry of the Environment for the rivers of the coast and highlands, as well as the quality standards of the European Union for the cultivation of trout, while levels of Cu conformed with those standards. Concentration of Cu, Zn, Fe and Pb in the livers, kidneys and muscles exceeded the maximum permissible limits established by the European Union for fish meat and by the Mexican official standard, NOM-027-SSA1-1993, for fresh, refrigerated and frozen fishery products, in the case of Pb.

  • 2. the Village in the Context of a Changing Nation
    2. The Village in the Context of a Changing Nation 2.1 Peru-A Land of Paradoxes 21.1 The Paradox of the Majority as a Cultural Minority This book describes and analyzes the structural mechanisms of defense whereby traditional closed corporate communities (see 2.4) in the Andes have attempted to retain autonomy and self determination. Their major strategy has been to maintain social and economic closure. That is to say, they have chosen not to participate in the national economy, preferring subsistence self- sufficiency. When national policies impinge on such closed communities, their concern has been to protect their control over their territory. These types of nonparticipating Peruvian communities have for centuries charac- terized the majority of the Peruvian population—the mass of Andean Quechua-speaking peasants. Many scholars argue that these communities have become internal colonies, which are ethnically and territorially distinct and dominated eco- nomically and politically. Furthermore, these communities have become increasingly differentiated legally (Cotler 1970, Fuenzalida 1970a and 1970b, Quijano 1971, Van den Berghe 1974). This chapter briefly discusses: the historical process by which the com- munities constituting the numerical majority have become internal colonies; the role played by the Peruvian landscape in maintaining territorial separa- tion as well as economic and political domination; some of the dynamics of migration (2.2); the impact of the 1969 Agrarian Reform Law (2.3); and, finally, Peru's peasant communities (2.4). With this all too brief discussion of some of the factors responsible for the rapid changes taking place in the nation, we will turn our attention to the dynamics of social life in one Andean community by taking a hypothetical bus trip to Chuschi.
