Effects of agricultural practices on the availability of soil nutrients and microbial activity in tropical rainforest ecosystems in southern Mexico
Soil microbial activity is a key factor in soil nutrient availability. This is especially relevant for the transition toward sustainable management of agricultural lands, which are experiencing rapid soil degradation and loss of fertility. However, there is little information on how agricultural practices alter soil microbial activity and nutrient availability in the tropics. We analyzed the effects of three agricultural management schemes on soi…
Mapping the Violence Reputation of Organized Crime Groups
This Methods article details a survey used to create spatial maps of perceived violence and danger, key indicators of criminal governance, across three Mexican states. This method adds to traditional mapping techniques, which typically only visualize areal data at the municipal level. Criminal governance has been defined as the process by which organized crime groups impose control over territory, population, and resources, often through violence…
The Use of Innovative Techniques to Decodify Early Anthropic Activity in the Sonoran Desert (NW Mexico)
The Early Agriculture Period (EAP) in the southwest of USA and northwest of Mexico began just after the Altithermal period (7500–4500 years BP). During the EAP, agricultural societies cultivated corn and constructed canals for irrigation; however, searching for the sites of this period and reconstruction of the ancient activities surrounding them meets difficulties and requires the development of geoarchaeological indicators. The present study ai…
Modelling avocado-driven deforestation in Michoacán, Mexico
As demand for avocado climbs, avocado production in Michoacán—Mexico’s biggest avocado growing region—expands into new places. We use a spatial probit model to project the geographic distribution of likely future avocado expansion and analyze those results to determine (a) threats to specific forest types and (b) how the distribution of avocado is shifting spatially under current and future climate scenarios. Our results suggest that avocado expa…
