Effects of soil amendment treatments on survival and growth of four fast-growing tree species on degraded mine areas in the Peruvian Amazon

Creator:: Llancari Valenzuela, Yury Milagros
Abstract:: This paper aims to increase the knowledge on establishment practices for four fast-growing species (Guazuma crinita Mart., Eucalyptus grandis x E. urophylla, Bixa orellana L., Psidium guajava L.) in areas degraded by gold mining in the Peruvian Amazon. The study was carried out in Madre de Dios region, located in...

Sensitivity and Partitioning in Remote Sensing Based Evapotranspiration Models

Creator:: Talsma, Carl J.
Abstract:: Satellite Based evapotranspiration (ET) models have become a dominant means to estimate large-scale surface fluxes of water. Global and regional ET estimates are important parameters in many climate forecasts and hydrologic models. However, large scale partitioning of ET into soil evaporation, transpiration, and canopy interceptions remains largely unknown and modeled...

The Geology, Geochronology, and Geochemistry of the Miocene Volcanic Rocks at the Inmaculada Ag-Au Mine, Southern Peru

Creator:: Cuellar Quispe, Juan Carlos
Abstract:: The Inmaculada Mine is located in the Miocene belt of epithermal deposits that extends from southern Peru to northern Chile and Bolivia. This belt is known for its silver-rich epithermal veins that have been worked since colonial times. The Inmaculada Mine belongs to a mining district that includes, from north...

Analysis of the impact of certification on cocoa production in Peru through a literature review

Creator:: Chiroque Chiroque, Junior A.
Abstract:: The Peruvian cocoa sector has been growing quickly since the beginning of this century due to international demand for this commodity together with concentrated international cooperation, including NGOs and governmental agencies. Similarly, certification among cocoa producers has been growing quickly. Little is known regarding how certification impacts environmental and socioeconomic...

Challenges to stakeholder participation in coastal resource management : Allen, Northern Samar, Philippines

Creator:: Ulrich, Donald R.
Abstract:: Collaborative management of subsistence fisheries in the Philippines requires policies that devolve authority to the local level. This involves creating mechanisms to hold managers accountable for creating opportunities for active participation by fisher folk communities. The Philippines has created a comprehensive national framework for the co-management of coastal resources at...

Analysis of needs-based proposal for a workshop on coastal resources management for specialists from Mexico and the US

Creator:: Hobgood, Nick
Abstract:: Building institutional and human capacity for integrated coastal zone management (ICZM) is increasingly recognized as critical to the future of sustainable development in coastal states. Agenda 21 of the UNCED conference has underscored the urgency of capacity building for ICZM as have other international bodies such as the North American...

Spatial Variation in Ecosystem Carbon Stocks and Emissions Resulting from Land-use Conversion: Two Studies in Mangrove Forests of the Dominican Republic

Creator:: Giovannoni, Leila R.
Abstract:: Mangrove forests store more organic carbon across ecosystem carbon pools than most other coastal and forested ecosystems, and are subject to high global rates of deforestation. For these reasons, they are recognized as prime candidates for inclusion in climate change mitigation strategies. However, the ecological drivers of regional and micro-scale...

Fisheries Connectivity Networks to Measure the Adaptive Capacity of Small-Scale Fisheries in the Baja California Peninsula, Mexico

Creator:: Nomura, Keiko
Abstract:: Small-scale fisheries around the world are increasingly facing pressures from a range of environmental, economic, and social sources. In order to sustain the societal benefits of small-scale fisheries, it is imperative to understand how fishing communities adapt to disturbances. Fishermen often catch multiple different species as an adaptation technique because...

Hydraulic Conductivity of The Hemp Stems Under Water Stress

Creator:: Yuksel, Mehmet
Abstract:: Hydraulic conductivity of hemp stems under water-stress conditions was investigated. When plants face with water-stress conditions, embolies (cavitation) are triggered in xylem channels and water transport from the root to the leaves is affected. The relation between percentage loss of water transfer ability within the xylem channels can be described...

Studies on resistance of rice to Sogatodes oryzicola (Muir) and a parasitoid, Haplogonatopus sp., in Costa Rica

Creator:: Alvarez B., Francisco
Abstract:: Twenty-one rice cultivars were evaluated to determine the difference between populations of Sogatodes oryzicola (Muir) (Homoptera: Delphacidae) in Costa Rica and Colombia, Survival, mortality and population development of S. oryzicola on five selected cultivars was used to determine levels of plant resistance. The importance and potential of the parasitoid-predator Haplogonatopus...
