Teledetección ambiental: La observación de la Tierra desde el Espacio

Entorno Geografico, 2013
La teledetección, entendida como una técnica que implica la obtención a distancia de imágenes de la superficie de la Tierra, su tratamiento e interpretación para diferentes propósitos, inicialmente estuvo ligada principalmente a la fotografía aérea.

Quantifying the Spatial Footprint of Agriculture-Driven Edge Effects in a Global Deforestation Hotspot. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol
Tropical dry forests face increasing pressure from agricultural expansion, but how this expansion impacts on remaining forests is unclear. We quantified and mapped agricultural edge effects on tree cover, shrub cover, and above‐ground biomass in the Argentine Chaco, a global deforestation hotspot.

Perceived costs as drivers of wildlife management preferences in rural Tanzanian communities. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Effectively managing human–wildlife interactions is crucial for fostering coexistence on shared landscapes. Management options are most effective when aligned with the preferences of people directly affected by wildlife, yet little is known about how socioecological factors influence these preferences.

Use of species' responses to cryptic anthropogenic disturbances for monitoring biodiversity outcomes in tropical forests. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Measuring area‐based conservation outcomes in tropical forests is challenging due to cryptic human disturbances (e.g., hunting). As a result, comparative studies of management strategies providing quantitative outcomes remain scarce, especially in the Neotropics.

Prospects and perils in the geospatial turn of conservation. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Conservation has embraced advances in big data and related digital technologies as key to preventing biodiversity loss, especially in the identification of areas of conservation priority based on spatial data, which we call the big geospatial data turn.

Downscaling global reference points to assess the sustainability of local fisheries. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Multispecies coral reef fisheries are typically managed by local communities who often lack research and monitoring capacity, which prevents estimation of well‐defined sustainable reference points to perform locally relevant fishery assessments.

Navigating data challenges in socioeconomic impact assessments of conservation regimes. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Scholars are increasingly assessing the impact of conservation interventions at national and regional scales with robust causal inference methods designed to emulate randomized control trials (quasi‐experimental methods). Although spatial and temporal data to measure habitat loss and gain with remote sensing tools are increasingly available ...

Assessing disturbances in surviving primary forests of Europe. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Primary forests are of paramount importance for biodiversity conservation and the provision of ecosystem services. In Europe, these forests are scarce and threatened by human activities. However, a comprehensive assessment of the magnitude of disturbances in these forests is lacking, due in part to their incomplete mapping.
