Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El diccionario de la RAE define medio ambiente como el conjunto de circunstancias exteriores a un ser vivo. Esta definición sencilla y genérica encierra una extremada complejidad. De hecho, medio ambiente se puede definir como el sistema de elementos abióticos que sirven, a través de complejas interrelaciones, como soporte a la biosfera, es decir, al conjunto de la vida del planeta. Esta definición nos lleva rápidamente a una asociación con la ecología y el término ecosistema, pues el objeto de estudio de esta ciencia es las relaciones que se establecen entre los seres vivos (biocenosis) entre sí y con su entorno (biotopo), dando lugar a un ecosistema de distintas escalas. En este libro se analiza el medio ambiente desde el punto de vista geográfico y no ecológico. La Geografía es una disciplina que se adapta perfectamente al estudio ambiental, puesto que, desde su origen ha tenido al medio natural como objeto prioritario de su estudio.

Download or read book Geomorphology and Environmental Impact Assessment written by M. Marchetti and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume focuses on the close relationship between geomorphology and environmental impact assessment, and provides a wide-ranging overview of this topic. It includes several case studies covering a variety of environmental impacts derived from human activities (quarrying, communication infrastructure etc.) on different geomorphologic components (landforms, soil, landscapes etc.) and environments (glacial, fluvial, coastal etc.) The case studies presented offer a methodological guide from the most traditional geomorphological approaches through to the use of spatial data analysis and GIS tools and techniques. Environmental Impact Assessment is a relatively new scientific branch in which a wide variety of specialists are increasingly becoming involved. This volume will be of interest to geomorphologists, biologists, geographers, architects and engineers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Iniciabamos el nuevo siglo, cuando nuestra companera, la arquitecta Gladys Rodriguez Perez (qepd), convoco a un grupo de profesores de la Facultad de Ciencias Ambientales, para conformar un grupo de investigacion que se dedicara a la investigacion ambiental con enfoque territorial, el cual fue denominado Gestion Ambiental Territorial -GAT-. La invitacion a crear el grupo tuvo como objetivo, articular procesos academicos, lo cual motivo la participacion, y a su vez se constituyo en el mas apasionante reto de nuestra academia: "construir una plataforma del conocimiento que sirviera de soporte al ejercicio docente, permitiera la formacion de jovenes investigadores y sonar con nuevos paradigmas, propios de las Ciencias Ambientales." En la actualidad el grupo es reconocido y clasificado ante el Departamento Administrativo de Ciencia, Tecnologia e Innovacion -Colciencias-, y se concibe como un escenario academico permanente para el abordaje del territorio desde la dimension ambiental, a traves del desarrollo de procesos de investigacion, docencia, extension e innovacion, que contribuyan a la construccion de procesos de gestion ambiental del territorio desde un enfoque holistico."

Download or read book Geoenvironmental Mapping Methods Theory and Practice written by Peter T Bobrowsky and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 748 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text illustrates the range of environmental geoscience mapping presently carried out around the world. Specialists in several countries have contributed a number of subdisciplinary and thematic topics including volcanic hazards, landslides, dolines, tsunamis, radon potential, medical geology, rainfall erosion, engineering geology, borehole stratigraphy, lake sediment geochemistry, aggregate resources and remote sensing. The collection, analysis and interpretation of data by geologists, geographers and engineers typically involves the presentation of information in map form, which can range from black/white to colour, 2-D to 3-D and paper copy to digital format illustrations. This volume reaffirms the global need for mapping geoscientific data.

Download or read book Territorial Heritage and Development written by José Maria Feria and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2012-03-05 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a new approach to heritage, linking it to territory and sustainable development. This new approach entails a broader, integrated view of heritage values on the one hand, and on the other a shift in emphasis from their protection to their valorisation. In short, it provides a view of the joint workings of natural and cultural resources, and, as a consequence, moving away from a protection point of view in favour of a perspective on their suitable sustainable valorisation. In the viewpoint taken here, sustainability is understood as the balance and long-term preservation and enhancement of such natural and cultural resources and processes in a given territory. Territorial Heritage and Development includes contributions from different disciplines (geography, architecture, planning, sociology, environmental studies and archaeology) and case studies drawn from three continents, broaching both analytical and conceptual developments, and a range of initiatives for engaging in territorial heritage as an instrument of sustainable development. The book takes a pioneering and relevant approach to the breadth and complexity of the issue which can be valuable to academics and policy-makers in Geography, Architecture, Planning and Sociology.
Download or read book The Future of the Past Paths towards Participatory Governance for Cultural Heritage written by Gabriela García and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-05-30 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Future of the Past is a biennial conference generally carried out during the commemoration date of the incorporation of Santa Ana de Los Ríos de Cuenca Ecuador as a World Heritage Site (WHS). It initiated in 2014, organized by the City Preservation Management research project (CPM) of the University of Cuenca, to create a space for dialoguing among interested actors in the cultural heritage field. Since then, this space has served to exchange initiatives and to promote coordinated actions based on shared responsibility, in the local context. The third edition of this conference took place in the context of the 20th anniversary of being listed as WHS and a decade of CPM as the Southern host of the PRECOM3OS UNESCO Chair (Preventive Conservation, Maintenance and Monitoring of Monuments and Sites). For the very first time, and thanks to the collaboration with the Raymond Lemaire International Centre for Conservation of the University of Leuven (Belgium), the conference expanded its local scope. On this occasion, contributions reflected round a worldwide challenge in the cultural field: revealing the paths towards participatory governance of cultural heritage. Participatory governance is understood as institutional decision-making structures supported by shared responsibilities and rights among diverse actors.
