Near–real-time monitoring and response are possible
The western Amazon is one of the world's last high-biodiversity wilderness areas, characterized by extraordinary species richness and large tracts roadless humid tropical forest. It also home to an active hydrocarbon (oil gas) sector, operations in extremely remote areas that require new access routes. Here, we present first integrated analysis sector its associated road-building Amazon. Specifically, document (a) current panorama, including location development status all oil gas...
The Amazon Basin is at the center of an intensifying discourse about deforestation, land-use, and global change. To date, climate research in has overwhelmingly focused on cycling storage carbon (C) its implications for climate. Missing, however, a more comprehensive consideration other significant biophysical feedbacks [i.e., CH 4 , N 2 O, black carbon, biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs), aerosols, evapotranspiration, albedo] their dynamic responses to both localized (fire,...
Documenting temporal trends in the extent of ecosystems is essential to monitoring their status but combining this information with degree protection helps us assess effectiveness societal actions for conserving ecosystem diversity and related services. We demonstrated indicators Tropical Andes using both potential (pre-industrial) recent (~2010) distribution maps terrestrial types. measured long-term loss, representation types within current protected areas, quantifying additional offered...
Abstract The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework includes a target of 30% land protected by 2030 and refers to other effective area based conservation measures (OECMs) as complementary PAs, but robust evaluations the effectiveness governance mechanisms that could act OECMs in preventing forest loss carbon emissions remain sparse. Here we assessed impact PAs two potential OECMS: Indigenous Lands (ILs), Non-Timber Forest products Concessions (NTCs) on its associated Peruvian Amazon...
Abstract Local and cross-continental road building, increased economic teleconnections, growing agricultural demands, logging mining practices, general development processes are putting pressure on even the least densely populated regions of Amazon, where local, regional, global demand for food, fuel fiber resulting in observable biophysical effects. It is essential, then, that stakeholders can both map understand effects these forest disturbances ecosystem services. Multiple remote sensing...
Abstract Peru’s Southeastern Amazon deforestation trends can be attributed to alluvial gold mining. Illegal mining occurring in forestry concessions, national parks, and the territories of Indigenous People Organizations is particular concern. We present a methodology create near real-time alerts caused by A time series Sentinel-1 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data from February December 2022 created Google Earth Engine (GEE) assessed using Morton Canty’s Omnibus Q-test change detection...
Se realizó un estudio sobre la fenología del cactus Neoraimondia arequipensis subsp. roseiflora en el cerro Umarcata, ubicado cuenca baja río Chillón, Lima, Perú. marcaron forma aleatoria 15 plantas adultas donde se evaluó estado fenológico presente diferentes épocas año. Las observaciones fueron mensuales desde Octubre 2003 hasta Septiembre 2004. Mediante Análisis de Correspondencias estableció patrón hipotético secuencia los estadios fenológicos planta. Los resultados indican presencia dos...
Abstract Biodiversity conservation is a complex and transdisciplinary problem that requires engagement cooperation among scientific, societal, economic, political institutions. However, historical approaches have often failed to bring together address the needs of all relevant stakeholders in decision‐making processes. The Tropical Andes, biodiversity hotspot where efforts conflict with socioeconomic issues policies prioritize economic development, provides an ideal model develop implement...
Se presenta una recopilacion de datos historicos y biologicos relacionados con el origen de la tuna en Peru. El uso opuntias nativas data epocas precolombinas mas de 11,000 anos antiguedad. La ( Opuntia ficus-indica ) fue registrada por los cronistas, detallando comestible sus frutos la presencia cochinilla superficie sus tallos. discuten analisis citologicos geneticos, conjuntamente revision de colorantes tejidos prehispanicos como fuentes informacion que podrian contribuir a dilucidar...
Con el propósito de monitorear la actividad diaria hormiga Camponotus sp. sobre cactus Neoraimondia arequipensis subsp. roseiflora (Werdermann & Backeberg) Ostolaza se realizó un estudio en cerro Umarcata, cuenca baja del río Chillón, Lima, Perú. Las tres visitas al lugar fueron los meses Setiembre 2003, Enero y Agosto 2004. Se conteo las obreras cada hora (durante 24 horas) instante que observador fijaba su vista botón floral (n=7, botones una 10 plantas). Los resultados muestran patrón...
A fin de determinar la secuencia estacional del forrajeo hormiga Camponotus sp. en los botones florales cactus Neoraimondia arequipensis subsp. roseiflora (Werdermann & Backeberg) Ostolaza (Cactaceae), se realizó un estudio el cerro Umarcata, cuenca baja río Chillón, Lima, Perú. Se marcaron forma aleatoria 15 plantas adultas y evaluó durante año número totales producidos por planta hasta máximo 50 total hormigas sobre cada uno florales. Las observaciones fueron mensuales desde Octubre...
Abstract. Maintenance works are crucial to improve the reliability and resilience of road infrastructure but, despite efforts achieve a safer operation, work zones still risky areas where 4% all accidents occur. The main factors that increase risk during maintenance include proximity live traffic, inadequate warning signs driver behaviour. Intelligent Transportation Systems their supporting technologies including sensors, data processing analysis have been beneficial for increasing safety.In...
