Estudio preliminar del pastoreo racional Voisin como herramienta para mejorar las condiciones del suelo después del pastoreo extensivo

REVISTA TERRA LATINOAMERICANA, 2022
El pastoreo racional Voisin (PRV) promueve el manejo armonioso del ganado, las plantas, el agua y el suelo, lo cual puede inducir cambios positivos en las propiedades de los suelos degradados por la práctica del pastoreo extensivo. El objetivo de la presente investigación fue determinar los cambios en las propiedades f isicoquímicas y biológicas del ...

Long transient response of vegetation dynamics after four millennia of anthropogenic impacts in an island ecosystem. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol, 2022
In the Mediterranean region, island ecosystem dynamics have been influenced by millennia of anthropogenic impacts. Here, we analysed the spatio‐temporal dynamics of vegetation in sa Dragonera, where herbivory by goats, over‐logging and rat occurrence ended in the last decades.

Land tenure contributions to protected area growth under alternative conservation targets in the Australian monsoon tropics. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract As the global protected area (PA) network expands to meet international targets, it is important to assess whether traditional reliance on public land will suffice for projected PA growth or whether other tenures, such as Indigenous or pastoral lands, may increasingly contribute.

Threats to and management of Natura 2000 protected areas relative to agricultural practices. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract The Natura 2000 (N2K) network combines biodiversity protection and socioeconomic targets. Human activities, such as agricultural practices, can affect biodiversity in N2K sites in diverse ways. Limiting activities with negative impacts while enforcing land management that supports biodiversity is crucial for effective conservation.

Effectiveness of protected areas in the Caucasus Mountains in preventing rangeland degradation. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract As land use intensifies globally, it increasingly exerts pressure on protected areas. Despite open, nonforested landscapes comprising up to 40% of protected areas globally, assessments have predominately focused on forests, overlooking the major pressures on rangelands from livestock overgrazing and land conversion.

Rapid riparian ecosystem decline in Rocky Mountain National Park. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Understanding the drivers of ecosystem collapse is critical for resource management, particularly for protected areas mandated to preserve biodiversity. In Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado, tall willows (Salix spp.) dominated riparian vegetation, and a beaver–willow state was the natural ecosystem type in the Colorado River headwaters ...

Silvopastoral systems benefit invertebrate biodiversity on tropical livestock farms in Caquetá, Colombia. [PDF]

Agric For Entomol
Abstract In the Colombian Amazon, there has been long‐term and sustained loss of primary forest threatening biodiversity and climate change mitigation. Silvopastoral practices that integrate trees into livestock production could help address both local economic and wider environmental challenges.

Evaluating institutional fit for the conservation of threatened species

Conservation Biology, Volume 35, Issue 5, Page 1437-1450, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Recovery and conservation of threatened species require adequate institutional responses. We tested an approach to systematically identify and measure how an institutional framework acknowledges threats and required responses for the recovery of endangered species.

Intensificación de la ganadería en tiempos de cambio climático: Desafíos del pastoreo doméstico en las zonas áridas de la Patagonia argentina

Mètode Science Studies Journal: Annual Review, 2023
El pastoreo con ganado modifica los ecosistemas áridos y llega incluso a degradarlos, lo que atenta contra la sustentabilidad de la propia actividad ganadera.
