  • Environmental Impact Assessment of Agricultural Greenhouse Systems in a Natural Heritage Site

    Open Access•Gricelda Herrera-Franco, Ramon L Espinel et al.•ARTICLE•Heritage•2026

    Sustainable agricultural development in natural heritage sites poses a challenge, requiring food security without compromising the conservation of ecosystems and their outstanding universal values (OUV). The Galapagos Islands, recognized as a Natural World Heritage, have problems of scarce water and arable land, compounded by anthropogenic pressures such as high population and tourism growth and dependence on food imports. The objective of this r…

  • An integrated bibliometric and systematic review of governance responses to illegal gold mining in the Amazon Basin

    Open Access•María Jaya-Montalvo, Robert Brito-Matamoros et al.•ARTICLE•Trees Forests and People•2026

  • An institutional framework for education for sustainable development through service-learning in universities

    Open Access•Denise Rodríguez-Zurita, Emma Juaneda-Ayensa et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2025

    Purpose Higher education institutions play a pivotal role in achieving sustainable development goals. The purpose of this study is to present an institutional framework for education for sustainable development through service-learning at ESPOL Polytechnic University in Guayaquil, Ecuador. Design/methodology/approach A mixed-methods approach was used, combining documentary analysis, a preliminary survey and two focus groups involving 15 professor…

  • Sustainable development through service learning and community engagement in higher education

    Open Access•Denise Rodríguez-Zurita, María Jaya-Montalvo et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2025

    Purpose This study aims to delve into the evolution, trends and implications of scientific production related to service learning (SL) and community engagement for sustainability in higher education institutions (HEIs). Because HEIs play a crucial role in achieving the sustainable development goals (SDGs), experiential learning approaches are needed to actively involve students in sustainable development. Design/methodology/approach In total, 869…

  • Geomatic tools used in the management of agricultural activities

    Open Access•Paulo Escandón-Panchana, Sandra Martínez Cuevas et al.•ARTICLE•Environment Development and…•2024

    Managing agricultural activity encompasses technology, geographic information, spatial data and geomatic tools as support techniques. In this framework, agricultural mapping is an essential geomatic application due to its importance in managing food systems. This research aims to analyze the state of knowledge of geomatics tools and their applications in agriculture through a systematic review of scientific documents and methodological approaches…

  • Sustainable Design for Geotourism Interpretation Centres

    Open Access•Gilda Rubira-Gómez, Jenifer Malavé-Hernández et al.•ARTICLE•Heritage•2024•Cited by: 1

    Geosites represent important elements of geoheritage for promoting geotourism sustainable practices aimed at education and conservation. The Santa Elena Peninsula Geopark Project has several locations with geological, cultural and historical richness and the potential for geosites and tourist development. However, these places lack infrastructures that improves tourist reception and local geoeducation. In this study, Geotourism Interpretation Cen…

  • Application of Geomechanical Classification Systems in a Tourist Mine for Establishing Strategies within 3G’s Model

    Open Access•Maribel Aguilar-Aguilar, María Jaya-Montalvo et al.•ARTICLE•Heritage•2023•References: 6

    Stability problems in rock masses are one of the main causes of subsidence events in underground mining areas. Zaruma, in the South of Ecuador, is characterised by mineral wealth, in which 65% of the population depends directly on artisanal mining activity. However, mineral extraction, without technical considerations and in many cases illegal, has negatively impacted the stability of tunnels generated under the city’s urban area, reporting subsi…

  • Geodiversity assessment to regional scale

    Open Access•Paúl Carrión-Mero, Jairo Dueñas-Tovar et al.•ARTICLE•Environmental Science & Policy•2022•Cited by: 1•References: 3

    Geodiversity is the variety of earth materials, forms and processes that constitute and shape the Earth planet. Therefore, geodiversity includes essential for developing nature-based solutions and must be adequately characterised. This research aims to evaluate the geodiversity of Mainland Ecuador by estimating a Geodiversity Index, which is the sum of five partial indexes (Lithological, Geomorphological, Paleontological, Pedological, and Mineral…
