Deforestación Y Deterioro De Las Selvas Tropicales En La Región Uxpanapa, Veracruz
DEFORESTACIÓN Y DETERIORO DE LAS SELVAS TROPICALES EN LA REGIÓN UXPANAPA, VERACRUZ. Hernández Gómez Irving U., Ellis Edward A., Gallo Gómez César A. Centro de Investigaciones Tropicales CITRO, Universidad Veracruzana. Interior de la Exhacienda Lucas Martín, calle Araucarias s/n, Colonia Periodistas, 91019 Xalapa, Veracruz, México; e-mail: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] RESUMEN Las selvas de la región Uxpanapa destacan por ser de los últimos remanentes en el Sureste de México. Adicionalmente, se reconocen mundialmente por su importancia para la biodiversidad de la región Neotropical Mesoamericana. Sin embargo, particularmente desde los últimos 50 años, la región ha sufrido un proceso de deforestación que ha transformado el paisaje notablemente. Este artículo describe la historia de colonización, desarrollo económico y conservación en la región Uxpanapa en el estado de Veracruz; y presenta las dinámicas en la cobertura de vegetación y uso de suelo, que son consecuencia de los procesos socioeconómicos. Se aplicaron técnicas de percepción remota usando imágenes satelitales multiespectrales y Sistemas de Información Geográfica para la determinación de los tipos de uso de suelo y los cambios suscitados de 1972 a 2009 teniendo como resultado una tasa de deforestación de 2.1%. Adicionalmente, se integró un análisis paisajístico sobre los procesos de deforestación y fragmentación de las selvas obteniendo una fragmentación con 2693 parches con un promedio de 163 ha en 1972 que sube a 25,396 parches de 7 ha de promedio en el 2009. Se discute este impacto y estrategias para la conservación de biodiversidad. Palabras clave: Selvas Tropicales, Deforestación, Biodiversidad, Uxpanapa, Percepción Remota ABSTRACT The forests of Uxpanapa region stand out as the last remnants in southern Mexico. -

Sol 22, Bismark. 29267, San Cristóbal de las Casas, Chiapas, México. *Correspondent: [email protected] Abstract. Information on the spatial ecology of the Tehuantepec jackrabbit (Lepus fl avigularis) is important for developing management strategies to preserve it in its habitat. We radio-collared and monitored 60 jackrabbits from May 2006 to April 2008. We estimated annual and seasonal home ranges and core areas by using the fi xed-kernel isopleth to 95% and 50% of confi dence, respectively. This jackrabbit showed a highly variable seasonal home range: 1.13 ha to 152.61 ha for females and 0.20 ha to 71.87 ha for males. Annual and seasonal home ranges and core areas of females were signifi cantly wider than male home ranges. There was considerable overlap of ranges within and between sexes, with the home range of each jackrabbit overlapping with the ranges of 1 to 46 other individuals. Home range and overlap analysis confi rms that the Tehuantepec jackrabbit is a polygamous and non-territorial species. -

JOSÉ ANTONIO SANTOS MORENO Santa Cruz Xoxocotlán, Oaxaca. Julio de 2009 RESUMEN Se realizó la modelación de la distribución geográfica potencial de los roedores endémicos de Oaxaca, a través del algoritmo genético GARP (Genetic Algorithmic for Rule-Set of Prediction), con la finalidad de hacer una comparación referente a las áreas de protección de la biodiversidad en el estado. Se utilizaron las bases de datos recabadas de las colecciones científicas, con lo que se obtuvo que tanto para las Áreas Naturales Protegidas y Áreas de Conservación Certificada, la sobreposición de los roedores es significativamente baja, tanto en la distribución real como potencial, en contraste para las Regiones Terrestres Prioritarias y Sistema Estatal de Conservación de Áreas Naturales, la representación es mucho mayor que para las anteriores sin olvidar que las dos son propuestas que difícilmente se ponen en acción. Se determinó un área donde convergieran la mayoría de especies, así como que esa área tuviera la mayoría de características para que las especies pudieran realmente habitarla, con lo que se determino una parte del municipio de Ixtlán y San Pedro Yaneri donde convergieron 8 de 9 especies de roedores, la vegetación y el rango de altitudes son adecuadas a la distribución potencial de los roedores endémicos de Oaxaca. -
Contesting Energy Transitions: Wind Power and Conflicts in the Isthmus of Tehuantepec
Contesting energy transitions: Wind power and conflicts in the Isthmus of Tehuantepec Sofia Avila-Calero1 Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Spain Abstract This article studies the expansion of large-scale wind energy projects in the Isthmus of Tehuantepec (Mexico) and local socio-environmental conflicts that have emerged in response. It explores how the neoliberal agenda in Mexico is shaping a specific way of implementing wind energy projects, and how this is leading to local resistance and production of alternatives. The article is based on a historical analysis reconstructing the main features of wind power development and pathways of struggle. By following a political ecology perspective, wind energy is seen as embedded in a wider frame of power relations and the uneven patterns of the Mexican economy. Struggles of indigenous groups are thus analyzed as the expression of peripheral communities against the enclosure of communal lands, the private appropriation of benefits and the lack of democratic procedures involved in these projects. The discussion emphasizes the role of communal identities and institutions in building successful networks, while introducing new concepts (energy sovereignty) and alternative schemes in wind power production (cooperatives). The overall approach of the article is that any move towards a different energy system should be politically encouraged by social and cultural means, rather than mainly economically motivated. Keywords: wind energy, neoliberalism, socio-environmental conflicts, energy sovereignty, cooperatives. Resúmen Este artículo estudia la expansión de mega-proyectos de energía eólica en el Istmo de Tehuantepec (México) y la consecuente emergencia de conflictos socio-ambientales en la región. El objetivo central del estudio reside en indagar la influencia de la agenda neoliberal en la implementación de estos proyectos, al tiempo que busca explorar la naturaleza de los conflictos y sus alternativas. -

This chapter explores the shifting and contrasting discourses of value around the language in the current era of neoliberal multiculturalism drawing on an ethnographic study of the use of Isthmus Zapotec in educational contexts in the Isthmus of Tehuantepec. The effects of educational politics across historical eras and into the present have largely devalued Isthmus Zapotec use and contributed to the material inequalities experienced by Isthmus Zapotec speakers. The social capital associated with Isthmus Zapotec remains subject to negotiation, however, as local actors continue to revalue Isthmus Zapotec through communal, genealogical and place-based discourses, as well as individualist, ahistorical and mobile discourses. -
