Its latitude coordinates range from 17° 30‘ S in the southern highlands to 56° 30‘ S in continental Chile and 90° S in the Antarctic territory. The Patagonia is one of the most beautiful parts of Chile. Since its discovery almost 500 years ago, it continues to be described as exotic, remote, and wild. Because Patagonia’s climate is defined by four discrete seasons, we can appreciate its ever- changing landscapes, colors, and lighting all year round. 1/1 MAIN MENU GENERAL INFORMATION INTRODUCTION TO HUILO HUILO OUR HISTORY & 3-PILLAR WILDLIFE PRESERVATION PHILOSOPHY LOCAL COMMUNITY SUSTAINABLE TOURISM INTEGRATION HUILO HUILO FOUNDATION OUR HISTORY AND 3-PILLAR PHILOSOPHY Huilo Huilo is located in the heart of the Patagonian Forest, in Region of Los Rios (the Rivers). It is reserve that contains 100,000 hectares of amazingly biodiverse temperate rainforest. It is home to endangered species, majestic mountains, volcanoes, glacial lakes, and countless streams, as well as the highest number of fern species in continental Chile. Our goal at Huilo Huilo is to delight our visitors with the magic of Patagonia. We strive to protect and preserve the temperate rainforest while integrating local communities so as to improve both present and future generations’ quality of life. The Huilo Huilo Biological Reserve practices a new concept of sustainable development, which is based on three essential pillars: •Conservation: conservation of biodiversity through research and flagship projects, such as the Huemul Conservation Center •Integration of the Community: active incorporation of local communities, generating new jobs and offering training in various disciplines, including programs with local schools. This helps those who live here, in addition our visitors, discover the area’s worth. •Special Interest Tourism: the new addition to the area’s economy, which will allow projection towards the future. The Huilo Huilo Foundation enforces the implementation and development of the first two pillars. READ MORE ABOUT HUILO HUILO FOUNDATION 1/1 OUR HISTORY AND 3-PILLAR PHILOSOPHY HUILO HUILO FOUNDATION Our Mission Our mission is to protect, preserve and restore the temperate rainforest, while integrating local communities in order to create a better quality of life for present and future generations. With this objective in mind, we have developed conservational, social and educational programs, designed to change old paradigms and to incentivize small businesses and the sustainable development of the area. Our Vision Our vision is that through the recovery of natural and cultural values, the local community will develop a sustainable economy which in turn will provide a better quality of life for its members, in which they live in harmony with the environment and base their development on the appreciation and conservation of the temperate rainforest, water systems and other ecosystems. 1/4 OUR HISTORY AND 3-PILLAR PHILOSOPHY HUILO HUILO FOUNDATION Strategic Objectives •Protect the temperate rainforest, the water systems, and other ecosystems. •Restore damaged ecosystems through ecological landscaping and botanical restoration projects with conservation criteria. Part of this task is to protect amphibians, birds, insects, and mammals through on-site conservation projects, monitoring projects, reproduction projects, and reintegration projects for vulnerable and endangered species. •Develop and support scientific research projects that allow a thorough understanding of biological processes so as to conserve native species and ecosystems, as well as the study of the geological and glaciological origins of the reserve. •Revive local cultural values through projects and literary competitions; research and publications of stories, legends, and poetry; and the development of music and dance. •Develop a local economy based on conservation and sustainability. In this way, we seek to open new areas of activity and generate entrepreneurial initiatives through vocational training and academic and technical education.

    1 The Patagonian Adventure – two Tasmanians in South America Dec/Jan 07-08 Keith and Sib Corbett What and where “Patagonia’ is the name given to the southern part of South America, actually shared between Chile and Argentina. It extends roughly from 40° to 56°S latitude, and includes the large island of Tierra del Fuego (the same size as Tasmania) at the bottom. The Andean mountains run down the western side, about 200km wide and up to 4000m high, with two small icecaps, hundreds of glaciers, and thousands of fiords and glacial valleys and lakes. The Andes and west coast are exceptionally wet – 3 to 4 metres of rainfall annually – and are mostly covered by wet forest. But there is an extreme rain shadow effect, and the eastern foothills and the 400-500km wide expanse of semi-flat pampas to the east, in Argentina, are exceptionally dry, with only 200mm of rain or less. This pampas area, which includes the eastern half of Tierra del Fuego, is covered in dry grass and low shrubs, has been developed as grazing land for several centuries, and is divided into numerous large grazing properties called ‘estancias’. It’s extremely boring country to travel through (everyone else on the bus went to sleep), and your eyes are constantly drawn to the snow-covered mountains to the west. Hence the Andes are a great tourist attraction for the local people – somewhere cool and moist and interesting to go. The long glacial history has resulted in huge volumes of rock (hundreds of cubic km) being carved away from the mountains by ice, deposited as moraine boulders around the foothills, and then re-deposited further out by rivers as endless plains of grey pebbly gravel, which is what much of the pampas consists of.

  • Proyecto: Central Hidroeléctrica Neltume Y Línea De Alta Tensión Neltume – Pullinque I
    PROYECTO: CENTRAL HIDROELÉCTRICA NELTUME Y LÍNEA DE ALTA TENSIÓN NELTUME – PULLINQUE I. ANTECEDENTES La “Central Hidroeléctrica Neltume” se ubica en la comuna de Panguipulli (provincia de Valdivia). Consiste en la construcción y operación de una central hidroeléctrica de paso cuya potencia instalada sería de 490 MW. La central se emplazaría cerca de las localidades de Neltume, Lago Neltume, Puerto Fuy, Tranguil y Río Hueco. La generación estimada sería de 490 MW y 1.885 GWh anuales. El proyecto requiere construir una bocatoma para captar aguas del río Fuy (un caudal máximo de 140 m3/s). Las aguas serían conducidas mediante una obra de aducción subterránea de 10 kms aproximados de longitud, hasta la caverna de máquinas (también subterránea). Las aguas turbinadas se descargarían en el lago Neltume. El proyecto también implica la construcción de la línea de alta tensión Neltume-Pullinque1. El monto estimado de costo del proyecto es de 781 millones de dólares2. II. DESCRIPCIÓN CRONOLÓGICA DEL CONFLICTO 2007-2009: La empresa transnacional Endesa (que en 2009 pasa a ser Endesa Enel) comienza a operar al borde del lago Neltume (comuna de Panguipulli), territorio donde planea realizar una central hidroeléctrica y su correspondiente línea de alta tensión. Contacta y busca acuerdos con la comunidad mapuche Juan Quintuman, ubicada en el lugar3. Mayo 2009: La Comisión Regional de Medio Ambiente (COREMA) de Los Ríos aprueba la construcción de la galería de prospección Neltume, paso previo necesario a la construcción de la central hidroeléctrica proyectada. El alcalde de Panguipulli critica las formas de aprobación por parte de la COREMA, ya que el municipio no fue escuchado4.

  • The Phytoplankton and Limnological Characteristics of Lago Rupanco, Osorno, Chile
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Teresa G. Donoso for the degree of Master of Science in Botany and Plant Pathology presented on January 9, 1984. Title: The Phytoplankton and Limnological Characteristics of Lago Rupanco, Osorno, Chile Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Harry'. Phinney Lago Rupanco is located in the central plain of Chile (Borgel, 1964) at 40° 50'S; 72° 30' W. It lies at 117 m above sea level, and corresponds to type 28c of Hutchinson's (1967) classification. Lago Rupanco is a warm, monomictic lake, with winter circulation and summer stratification. Physical, chemical and biological parameters of this lake were studied during a cycle of 18 months for the first time in 1981-1982. Lago Rupanco has a maximum depth of 160 m. The euphotic zone was sampled and the temperature ranged from 10 to 18 C with an oxygen content between 9 and 11 mg/l. This lake had small amounts of nitrate-nitrogen and phosphate-phosphorous, as is characteristic of oligotrophic lakes. The phytoplankton was analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. A total of 84 taxa was identified. Maximum and minimum values of phytoplankton relative abundance occurred in spring and fall, respectively. The phyto- planktonic biomass was at its maximum in summer and at its minimum in fall. Four species were the most abundant, Melosira granulata, Sphaerocystis schroeteri, Botryococcus braunii and Dinobryon divergens. Seasonal succession among the Bacillariophyceae, Chlorophyceae and Chrysophyceae was observed. The relationships between abiotic factors and the phytoplankton standing crop are discussed.
