The impact of organic native crops on the socioeconomic development and environmental sustainability of small-scale farmers in Jujuy, Argentina
Open AccessDavid Lopez-Carr, David López‐carr et al.ARTICLEHUMAN GEOGRAPHIES – Journal of…2026
Increased demand in Europe, North America, and Japan has created a market for exotic native South American food crops such as Açai, Yacon, and Camu Camu. Consumers increasingly seek out these products to promote fair trade and sustainable development. However, to date, no research has critically examined whether these native crops achieve their purported objectives for sustainable development and human health. Jujuy, a remote northern region of A…

A critical role of the capital green belt in constraining urban sprawl and its fragmentation measurement
Open AccessLiang Zhou, Y Gong et al.ARTICLELand Use Policy2024Cited by: 2References: 60
Urban green belts (UGBs), an important green infrastructure of cities, have the functions of constraining urban sprawl, which are of great significance to urban green, resilient and sustainable development. However, it remains unclear how to quantify the constraining effect of UGBs on urban sprawl and the degree of fragmentation after UGBs constrain urban sprawl. Here, we proposed a UGBs extraction method to explore the spatial evolution of UGBs …
Prevalence of Sars-CoV-2 infection and impact of the Covid-19 pandemic in avocado farmworkers from Mexico
Open AccessCynthia Armendáriz-Arnez, Marcela Tamayo‐Ortiz et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2023
Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic disproportionately affected farmworkers in the United States and Europe, leading to increased morbidity and mortality. However, little is known about the specific impact of the pandemic on agriculture and food production workers in low- and middle-income countries. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection and assess the mental health and economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandem…

Human-Induced Resource Scarcity in the Colorado River Basin and Its Implications for Water Supply and the Environment in the Mexicali Valley Transboundary Aquifer
Javier Rubio-Velázquez, Hugo A Loaiciga et al.ARTICLEAnnals of the American…2023References: 23
The Colorado River delta is a sedimentary alluvial formation that embodies the Lower Colorado River transboundary aquifer. The Mexicali Valley overlies the Mexican part of the aquifer, and the Imperial Valley the aquifer's portion north of the Mexico-U.S. border. Mexico receives an annual water allocation from the Colorado River stipulated by an international treaty between Mexico and the United States. The Colorado River water allocation to Mexi…

The primary objectives of this study are to examine intra-urban spatial variation in the rates of under-five-years-old child mortality (5q0) in Accra in 2000 and 2010, as well as between those two dates, and to evaluate potential connections between the ph

Las ciudades latinoamericanas crecen y la calidad y el área per cápita de sus parques se reducen, respecto al estudio de esta situación, insumo fundamental para el diseño de políticas públicas urbanas, existen vacíos. La hipótesis nula para este trabajo es que en Tunja los parques urbanos no presentan una adecuada ni homogénea oferta y dotación. En el 2010 se llevó a cabo un inventario de parques en la ciudad, para cada parque se levantó un políg…

Agro-ecological drivers of rural out-migration to the Maya Biosphere Reserve, Guatemala
Open AccessDavid Lopez-Carr, David López‐carrARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2012
Migration necessarily precedes environmental change in the form of deforestation and soil degradation in tropical agricultural frontiers. But what environmental factors may contribute to these migration streams in the first place? Identifying environmental characteristics related to this process is crucial for understanding how environmental change and migration may form recurrent feedback loops. Further understanding this process could be useful…
The effects of migrant remittances on population–environment dynamics in migrant origin areas
Open AccessJason Davis, David Lopez-Carr et al.ARTICLEPopulation and Environment2010Cited by: 11References: 44
International migration impacts origin regions in many ways. As examples, remittances from distant migrants may alter consumption patterns within sending communities, while exposure to different cultural norms may alter other behaviors. This paper combines these insights to offer a unique lens on migration's environmental impact. From an environmental perspective, we ask the following question: is the likely rise in consumption brought about by r…
