Inland water is fundamental for the conservation of flora and fauna a source drinking humans; therefore, monitoring its quality ascertaining status essential making decisions in resources management. As traditional measuring methods present limitations with high spatial temporal coverage, using satellite images to have greater control over lake observation can be handy tool satisfactory results. The study chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) has been widely used ascertain inland aquatic environment remote...
The vast latitudinal extent of continental Chile (approximately 17° to 55° South), combined with its contrasting anthropogenic land-use patterns and diverse altitudinal configurations, presents significant challenges for understanding fuel configurations. This study aims define standard models, based on the Scott Burgan classification, support stochastic wildfire spread simulations at landscape scale. In terms regions associated forested or woody vegetation areas, three...
Fires in Chile are one of the main natural threats to society and balance ecosystems. As is common, cause behind most them human action, their occurrence linked numerous climatic, environmental, or accessibility factors. The aim this study was predict daily probability ignition for all continental Chile, with a spatial resolution 100 meter, distinguishing between intentional unintentional fires potential disparities role fire drivers. To achieve this, Random Forest machine learning model...

Although intermittent rivers account for over half of the global fluvial network and could increase in length quantity Mediterranean climates (in response to climate changes), there is little documentation organic matter input them. This study was made possible by cooperation Concepción Chiguayante School community Explora project (Chile), with support citizen science. The aim compare coarse particulate quantities types Lonquén basin. Samplings were performed two perennial rivers. First,...
Abstract This article explores the concept of port-city territory symbiosis in combination with social and environmental impacts logistics, port handling, global value chains (GVC) forestry products. Based on fieldwork a mixed method approach, our analyses Coronel, its hinterland, company PuertoCoronel, pulp mill MAPA, illustrate more general pattern uneven economic, spatial development. While companies improve modernize their processes facilities, city Coronel territories seem to be left...
