Scaling up in community forest enterprises
For community forest enterprises (CFEs) in central Mexico, ‘scaling up’ can be an effective means of achieving the transition to economically attractive and sustainable forest management, but little is known about the potential and challenges that they face in this regard. We used a qualitative case study to evaluate a set of variables that determine the limitations and opportunities for scaling up CFEs in central Mexico and thereby expanding the…
Modern pollen rain in humid tropical mountain forests from eastern Mexico
Modern pollen rains have demonstrated that human legacies represent crucial information on the performance of strategies for biological conservation. However, the potential use of pollen rains in aspects related to human disturbance and other cultural processes remains scarcely explored in forest patches of tropical mountain environments. Our study offers an ecological model for stratifying management intensities using moss polster contents in th…
Limitaciones y oportunidades para el escalamiento de cuatro empresas forestales comunitarias del centro de México
Las empresas forestales comunitarias (EFC) requieren habilidades de planificación comercial regional para establecer y mantener asociaciones comerciales a mayor escala. El objetivo de este estudio es identificar la percepción de cuatro EFC contrastantes sobre las limitaciones y oportunidades de escalamiento en el centrode México, con base en el nivel de desarrollo de aprovechamiento silvícola y organización social, aplicando entrevistas a diferen…
Ganadería bovina con menor costo ambiental
La problemática de la ganadería es compleja por sus dimensiones multiescalar, multitemporal y multisectorial. El objetivo de este artículo es contribuir en la discusión sobre el tema de la ganadería en sus dimensiones política e individual, partiendo de la evidencia disponible de sus efectos ambientales y sociales en el mundo y aterrizando en el contexto del trópico mexicano. En ese sentido, identificamos una encrucijada; por un lado, mostramos l…
Dinámica relacional de las actividades recreativas en el Área de Protección de Flora y Fauna Nevado de Toluca, México
The management of recreational activities in Natural Protected Areas is complex due to the number of stakeholders that use and manage natural resources, their varying activities, interests and needs. The aim of the study was to analyse the relational dynamics between stakeholders involved in three Socio-Ecological Units, and their implications in the management of recreational activities in the Nevado de Toluca Flora and Fauna Protected Area, Mex…
Identifying hotspots of land use cover change under socioeconomic and climate change scenarios in Mexico
This study identifies the hotspots of land use cover change (LUCC) under two socioeconomic and climate change scenarios [business as usual (BAU) and a pessimistic scenario] at the national level for Mexico for three-time periods. Modelling suggests that by 2050 grassland and tropical evergreen forest will be the most endangered ecosystems, having lost 20-33% (BAU) or 43-46% (pessimistic scenario) of their extent in comparison to 1993. Agricultura…
Scenarios and story lines
Challenging the linear forestation narrative in the Neo-tropic
In the Neotropics increased rates of land use and land cover change (LULCC) and a strong deforestation trend in the second half of the twentieth century have caused environmental degradation and biodiversity loss. This study analysed patterns and processes of LULCC and deforestation for the Grijalva-Usumacinta watershed, one of the hydrologically and biologically most important watersheds in southern Mexico in face of the discussion about beginni…
Land use/cover, landforms and fragmentation patterns in a tropical dry forest in the southern Pacific region of Mexico
In spite of widely documented studies of deforestation rates and land use/cover changes in tropical dry forests in Mexico, relatively little is known about fragmentation patterns in such forests. This study defines the spatial distribution of landforms and land use/cover types the lower Papagayo River basin and examines their influence on fragmentation patterns and biological diversity in a tropical dry forest in that southern Pacific region. The…
Land Use and Land Cover Change in Highland Temperate Forests in the Izta-Popo National Park, Central Mexico
The long-term preservation of national park ecosystems requires scientific knowledge about land use/cover change (LUCC) that influences these ecosystems. LUCC in Mexican temperate mountain forests as depicted in satellite imagery was evaluated for 3 time intervals: 1970–1980, 1981–1990, and 1991–2000. Forest cover declined at an average rate of 0.35 ha per year due to timber extraction, cultivation, grazing (areas grazed by cattle), and urbanizat…
