The current stage of tourism development reaches global scale, playing a «tourist village» in places that, through various qualities, have optimal conditions for entering the market of tourist destinations. In each component of the «World’s Geography» part, lurks the possibility that a museum, architectural, coral reefs, waterfalls, through deserts, abandoned nuclear plants or cemeteries, are transformed into tourist resources. This article aims to account for the powers presents the geographical discipline to intervene in the study of the tourism phenomenon. To this end, the convenience of combining the theoretical and methodological approach to enrich a geographic perspective on tourism that is not limited to mere description.

The territory and its inherent natural conditions to each place are given as environmental assets and their configuration respond to dynamic processes which are changing through long time periods. Though, as showed in this paper, the territory may also be understood as the changing element of development. In the simple development model the two more important factors that decide the trajectory, dynamics and structure of changes that favor the geographic landscape are the human and economic capital. To these we may add the relative location which as it interacts, conditions the intensity of processes positioning a region as peripheral or central. In this paper we present an analysis of the development conditions of some Peruvian regions and their status of the peripheral rural economies in contrast with the dynamic development of the central regions (as it is the capital of the country or other urban-industrial and mining regions).

In Peru, research and practices that contribute to Andean natural resources’ sustainable management are needed. The Nor Yauyos Cochas Landscape Reserve is home to a wild vicugna population, which can be viewed as a key resource for conservation and sustainable development. However, some activities of Tanta Peasant Community impact negatively on vicugna’s habitat. The research aimed to determine spatial relations and impacts of Tanta’s activities on vicugna’s habitat and distribution over communal territory. A participatory mapping workshop was applied to determine vicugna’s actual distribution and local activities that could influence vicugna’s habitat. The species’ potential habitat was estimated with a species distribution model named Maxent. Spatial relations between vicugna’s actual distribution, its potential habitat and communal activities were analysed. Results indicate that potential habitat is determined by environmental conditions, while human presence and domestic livestock determine vicugna’s actual distribution. Based on the research process, recommendations relating vicugna’s sustainable management in the study area are given. The results are valuable to local community and conservation agents. Main contributions consist in generating a space for exchanging knowledge during the workshop, as well as the integration of analysis methods in physical and human geography.

Forests at the tropical Valley of the Apurimac and Ene rivers (VRAE), the second coca-growing region of Peru, are public common resources and nevertheless privately managed mainly by coca farmers, without effective State control of such use. The need for survival of the coca farmers, their chrematistic perception of the forest, the cultivation of cocoa ( theobroma cacao ) and land availability are crucial factors influencing the rates of deforestation of primary and secondary forest. Variables such as the legality of land tenure seem to have no influence. However, other institutional factors such as state policies in titling processes and its weakness or absence facilitate the destructive patterns of settlement in the upper forest. Grassroots organizations of farmers focused on defending coca cultivation and access to credit and technical conditions for their legal products do not consider the defense of the forest as a fundamental aspect of their agenda. Nor were grassroots organizations whose core agenda was the control and monitoring of the management of forest resources. All this leads to argue that the Amazonian farmers are trapped in the "prisoner's dilemma". On the one hand, institutional and media pressure press them strongly not to grow coca and on the other hand, if they do not grow coca o clear the forest, others will follow this destructive path and benefit immediately of such a decision

En los Andes tropicales del Peru y en regiones adyacentes aguas abajo, la subsistencia humana esta expuesta a fuertes cambios tanto en los patrones hidroclimaticos como en los socioeconomicos. Por un lado, los impactos del cambio climatico son particularmente visibles a traves del retroceso glaciar y crecimiento de lagunas glaciares. Conforme se va reduciendo la masa de hielo en cuencas altamente glaciadas, el caudal de rio probablemente decrecera y su variabilidad aumentara. Por otro lado, la creciente demanda de energia promueve la extension de centrales hidroelectricas y por ende una mayor necesidad de contar con un caudal minimo predecible durante todo el ano. Ademas, la expansion de la agricultura de riego y el crecimiento poblacional generan nuevas presiones en las cuencas. La situacion antagonista de una oferta de agua sucesivamente menor y demanda de agua creciente pone en riesgo la futura disponibilidad de agua. Este estudio analiza la situacion actual de la oferta y demanda de agua en las cuencas de los rios Santa (Ancash, La Libertad) y Vilcanota (Cusco). Se contextualiza el balance hidrico en ambas cuencas en el marco de la gestion integrada de recursos hidricos y la nueva Ley de Recursos Hidricos. Multiples conflictos por el agua que prevalecen en el Peru hacen visible la necesidad de una gobernanza de recursos hidricos orientada a una gestion mas participativa, segura y sostenible. Los procesos hidroclimaticos y socioeconomicos que se entrelazan de forma compleja y generan un alto grado de incertidumbre en los Andes del Peru, se podrian abordar a traves de una gestion adaptativa del agua en el futuro.
在秘鲁的热带安第斯山脉和邻近的下游地区，人类生计面临着水文气候和社会经济模式的巨大变化。一方面，气候变化的影响通过冰川退缩和冰川泻湖的增长尤为明显。随着高度冰川盆地的冰量减少，河流流量可能会减少，其变异性会增加。另一方面，不断增长的能源需求促进了水力发电厂的扩展，因此对全年可预测的最小流量的需求增加了。此外，灌溉农业的扩张和人口的增长给流域带来了新的压力。水资源供应不断减少和需求不断增加的对立情况危及未来的水资源可用性。本研究分析了Santa (Ancash, la Libertad)和Vilcanota (Cusco)河流域水资源供求的现状。本文分析了两个流域的水文平衡，并在综合水资源管理和新水资源法的框架内进行了分析。秘鲁普遍存在的多重水资源冲突表明，水资源治理的必要性，以更参与性、安全和可持续的管理为导向。在秘鲁安第斯山脉，水文气候和社会经济过程以复杂的方式交织在一起，产生了高度的不确定性，未来可以通过适应性水管理来解决。

The coastal fox or Sechura’s fox, whose scientific name is Lycalopex sechurae, is distributed among the areas of Ecuador’s northwest and the central coast of Peru. There is still little information about the biology of coastal fox and its role in ecosystems that are part of its habitat. Today the coastal fox habitat is under a state of fragmentation by human intervention. In this research, synthesized information about biological, ecological and geographical distribution of coastal fox is presented; with the status of threat and persecution, so conservation strategies are required, and this research focused on propose ecological corridors. The Corridor Designer, an extension of ArcGIS tools, could standardize the resolution of natural, anthropogenic, trophic and protective variables, and with those variables an habitat suitability between the ACP Chaparri and the ACR Huacrupe La Calera was obtained, which are connected from the design of two different ecological corridors, concluding that both are functional, although the first result of corridor would become more efficient and potential to put into the practice and reality.
海岸狐或塞胡拉狐，学名Lycalopex sechurae，分布在厄瓜多尔西北部和秘鲁中部海岸地区。关于海岸狐的生物学及其在其栖息地的生态系统中的作用的信息仍然很少。今天，由于人类的干预，沿海狐狸的栖息地处于破碎状态。本文综合介绍了沿海狐的生物、生态和地理分布情况;在面临威胁和迫害的情况下，需要采取相应的保护策略，本研究的重点是建立生态廊道。廊道设计师是ArcGIS工具的扩展，可以标准化解析自然、人为、营养和保护变量，并通过这些变量得到ACP Chaparri和ACR Huacrupe La Calera两种不同生态廊道设计的栖息地适宜性，得出两者都是功能性的结论，尽管廊道的第一种结果将更具效率和应用于实践和现实的潜力。

Ecosystem services (ES) are defined as the benefits people obtain from ecosystems. The inclusion of the ES is being acknowledged as very important, as well as the local actors knowledge and getting an estimation of the perceived social, economic or biophysics values in order to evaluate the complete range of ecosystem values. Social values are may be described as the socio are estimated through social evaluations and other non utilitarian techniques. Alto Mayo in San Martin Region is part of an Andean variety of ES and unusual characteristics; it is also a territory that is under major transformations with different negative impacts both on human and natural capital, which could lead to a decline in the quality of life of its population. In the last ten years the Regional Government of San Martin, along with the collaboration of various NGOs and other agencies, has carried out several initiatives to revert environmental degradation of the area. In this presentation, a research project will be presented to study the knowledge and perception of local actors about the Alto Mayo territory and the ES that may contribute to the conservation of ecosystems in the area. We will focus on the work methodology used, that is, the study conducted through questionnaires, interviews and participatory mapping with various actors in the area and the use of the G.I.S. tool SolVES (the Social Values for Ecosystem Services).

Climate change is promoting alterations in climatic conditions. This article analyzes the way how people deal with dry seasons in the community of Tucaque. Droughts are a rough limit in the development of any population. Even more if there are obstacles that retain the adaptive capacity to this event. These barriers are the economic resources scarcity and, the social and institutional factors. The latter two are seen in Tucaque where individualism dominates the people’s social life; there is also weak governance, and the weak connections with the Frias Municipality do not allow the right management of dry seasons. Droughts will continue happening so it’s a good idea to know the opportunities that may be used in order to take advantage of them and overcome the climatic stress. So, there is the canal El Bronce , that reduces the drought effects; the Ronda Campesina de Tucaque, despite of the difficulties it is a respected and organized institution in the community; ethno climatic knowledge that can be revalorize in front of the absence of meteorological stations; and the pitaya farming, which does not consume much water for its growth and it is a product with big economic possibilities. Being the agriculture a very sensitive activity to climatic modifications, actions taken against droughts will perfectly fit in adaptation measures to climate change.

River plays an essential function in providing sediments to the beach stability but this importance has not yet been properly estimated on the Peruvian coastline. So, the aim of this study focuses on the role of river sediments in the stability of the coastline at the Jequetepeque river mouth, located at the northern coast of Peru. This river, whose basin covers an area of 4,200 square kilometers, provides in average more than 900 million cubic meters a year (MMC yr -1 ) of water, and 2.9-8.0 MMC yr -1 of sediments to the ocean. Since the start of the Gallito Ciego dam in 1987, more than 104 MMC of sediments were retained into the reservoir. In order to assess the impact of the dam on the stability of the river mouth, a comparison among different coastline moments (for the years 1962, 1980, 2003 and 2011) with the support of GIS, were made. The results showed that the river mouth retreat to the land between 2003 and 2011 with rates of -2.6 m year -1 . Moreover, the retreat of the coastline observed throughout the study area between 1962 and 2011, it could be related to the potential sea level rise and the trend of the worldwide beach erosion.

This river, whose basin covers an area of 4,200 square kilometers, provides in average more than 900 million cubic meters a year (MMC yr -1 ) of water, and 2.9-8.0 MMC yr -1 of sediments to the ocean. Since the start of the Gallito Ciego dam in 1987, more than 104 MMC of sediments were retained into the reservoir. In order to assess the impact of the dam on the stability of the river mouth, a comparison among different coastline moments (for the years 1962, 1980, 2003 and 2011) with the support of GIS, were made. The results showed that the river mouth retreat to the land between 2003 and 2011 with rates of -2.6 m year -1 . Moreover, the retreat of the coastline observed throughout the study area between 1962 and 2011, it could be related to the potential sea level rise and the trend of the worldwide beach erosion.","PeriodicalId":30443,"journal":{"name":"Espacio y Desarrollo","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67860774","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
