Cambio Climático y Turismo: una aproximación a su estado de conocimiento

Abstract

<p class="normal">Este artigo discute o estado do conhecimento sobre as mudanças climáticas e o turismo como um objeto de estudo, com o objectivo de caracterizar as tendências temáticas, disciplinar e metodológica, além de reconhecer os desafios para o seu desenvolvimento. Uma análise foi feita de documentos relacionados com este objeto de estudo, dos quais foram identificados os seguintes cinco linhas temáticas: impactos ecológicos e de vulnerabilidade; projeções e cenários futuros; atenuação e adaptação; efeitos económicos; e estudos de turistas/visitantes. A investigação descobriu sobre este tema definido para as teorias de sistemas complexos como o suporte mais exposição, como também mostram maior tendência para a utilização de metodologias quantitativas, com uma maior produção de estudos sobre o continente europeu.</p><p class="normal"><strong>Palavras-chave</strong>: turismo, alterações climáticas, estado do conhecimento.</p>

The Global Environment Facility and Latin American Countries

“…With regard to the paper by Mancilla Velasco et al (2014), and typical of a status of the issue, it is observed that it refers to three of the works analysed here (Buzinde et al 2010;Da Cruz 2009;Nava Escudero 2008) that is a large part of the articles published until 2014. On the contrary, the other publications examined do not refer to each other: a decision that was not reversed over time despite the increase in the number of publications.…”

“…The present work sought to contribute in this line by identifying the drivers of public opinion stances on the topic. Velandia 2016; Da Cruz 2009;Mancilla Velasco et al 2014;Moreno Moreno et al 2015;Nava Escudero 2008;Olmos Martínez et al 2013;Picón et al 2014;Rubio 2017) at a rate of one per year (none in 2012 and two in 2014) in Spanish (except the work in English by Buzinde et al 2010). A decade later than in Europe, and even today with modest intensity, the concern for the subject is beginning to originate intellectual products in Latin America.…”

“…All the articles refer to Latin American realities: half of them address Mexican tourist destinations, two Costa Ricans, one Panamanian and one Brazilian (the article by Mancilla Velasco et al 2014, as a status of the issue, does not focus on any particular destination). Likewise, most of the publications were developed by academic entities from countries coinciding with the ones addressed, except three: Buzinde et al The ten studies come from and deal with Latin American tropical countries (Mexico, Costa Rica, Brazil, Panama).…”

“…The same authors comment about later works that relate tourist variables with rainfall, wind, humidity, radiation, fog, the number of days or hours of sun (De Kaján and Saarinena 2013; Ramasamy and Swamy 2012;Polovitz-Nickerson et al 2011). On the other hand, Mancilla Velasco et al (2014) recognise Gómez (1999Gómez ( , 2005 as a pioneer in the subject, and they point out her reflections about the influence of climate on seasonality and tourist profitability.…”

“…Among the articles examined, it is also common to find arguments based on international documents. Indeed, at the beginning of the century, international tourism organisations were interested in knowing, diagnosing and taking actions on various aspects of the subject: ecological and economic impacts of tourism, future scenarios of GHG emissions (greenhouse gases), potential modifications in tourist flows and probable natural damages (Mancilla Velasco et al 2014).…”
