Change detection as support for monitoring the dynamic of land around reservoir
(Ieee, 2014-01-01)
The change detection technique was used in this study to provide preliminary information on the dynamics of land cover in the region over the western basin of the Tiete River. This area is characterized by sequence of ...
Using sequential aerial photographs to detect land-use changes in the Austro Ecuatoriano
(2000)
During the last decades, there is a boom of the use of aerial photographs and remote sensing images to collect quickly accurate digital information in remote areas. Due to an easier accessibility of aerial photographs and ...
Deer habitat in western Costa Rica: Impacts of changing technology and land use
(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica., 1996)
White-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) numbers on the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica
probably peaked in the nineteenth century as native dry tropical forest was converted to
shrubland and secondary forest. Overhunting ...
Climate change-based modeling of potential land use arrangements for coffee (coffea arabica) and forest in Costa Rica
(2017-12)
Besides the need to reduce its own emissions, the challenge of the agricultural sector worldwide is also to adapt to a
changing and more variable climate. Coffee is an important crop in Costa Rica based on cultivated area ...

Native forest loss in the Chilean biodiversity hotspot: revealing the evidence
(Springer Verlag, 2017)
© 2016, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg. The understanding of the spatial and temporal patterns in land use and land cover (LULC) change is a key issue for conservation efforts. In the Chilean hotspot, different studies ...
Low-carbon agriculture in South America to mitigate global climate change and advance food security
(Elsevier B.V., 2017-01-01)
The worldwide historical carbon (C) losses due to Land Use and Land-Use Change between 1870 and 2014 are estimated at 148 Pg C (1 Pg = 1 billion ton). South America is chosen for this study because its soils contain 10.3% ...
Potential impacts of land use changes on water resources in a tropical headwater catchment
(2021-11-01)
The main objective of this study was to investigate the relationships between land use and future scenarios of land changes on water runoff and groundwater storage in an Environmental Protection Area (EPAs) watershed. The ...
