Importance of measured transpiration fluxes for modelled ecohydrological partitioning in a tropical agroforestry system
(Elsevier, 2023-12-23)Evaporation (E) and transpiration (Tr) are the key terrestrial water fluxes to the atmosphere and are highly sensitive to land cover change. These ecohydrological fluxes can be measured directly only at small scales, such ... -
Group-based and citizen science on-farm variety selection approaches for bean growers in Central America
(Wiley, 2024-02-08)Participatory approaches for crop variety testing can help breeding teams to incorporate traditional knowledge and consider site-specific sociocultural complexities. However, traditional participatory approaches have ... -
An assessment of the shade and ground cover influence on the mitigation of water‑driven soil erosion in a coffee agroforestry system
(2024-04-08)Coffee cultivation under agroforestry systems is one of the main agricultural activities in Central America, but climate change is putting its sustainability at risk. Rainfall erosivity has worsened, thus driving soil ... -
Evolution of Approaches on Water Resources Management and Integrated Watershed Management Planning: Complement, Synergies, and the Way Forward
Several approaches were used since the beginning of times to do water management. Relatively recent is the integrated water resources management (IWRM) proposed as an intent to bring a standard approach which is currently ... -
Rural Technologies and Practices in Ancient Peru
(Springer Nature, 2025-02)This chapter will address two of the most representative technolog-ical works related to water management in Peru. The Cumbemayo Canal and the AMUNAS. The first one is a pre-Columbian hydraulic work located in the trop-ical ... -
The Effect of Crises on Fiscal and Political Re-Centralization
(SAGE Publications, 2024-03-27)Economic stability plays a crucial role in any fiscal and political decentralization process. In the face of financial and economic shocks, when revenues and expenditures are reduced, countries may decide to gather resources ... -
Bright but flickering lights of sustainable, community-based groundwater supply and management: ASADAS in Costa Rica
(IOP Publishing, 2025-04-08)Este artículo trata la gestión del agua subterránea, y presenta cómo encaminarla a ser más equitativa y eficaz y cómo organizaciones como las ASADAS en Costa Rica, tienen una gran parte en este proceso en zonas rurales. ... -
Agroforestry systems in Latin America
(Springer Nature Link, 2024-05-17)Este artículo analiza los sistemas agroforestales en América Latina, destacando su importancia en la conservación ambiental, la productividad sostenible y la mitigación del cambio climático. Presenta investigaciones sobre ... -
Conceptualizing the governance challenges for food system transformation
(Frontiers, 2025-02-19)Approaches to food systems are receiving increased attention because they provide a more holistic perspective on the organization of food production and supply and on how to promote food safety, environmental sustainability, ... -
Comparing carbon agronomic footprint and sequestration in Central American coffee agroforestry systems and assessing trade-offs with economic returns
(Elsevier B.V., 2025-01-20)Agricultural systems are both emitters of greenhouse gases and have the potential to sequester carbon, especially agroforestry systems. Coffee agroforestry systems offer a wide range of intensities of use of agricultural ...
