Evaluación del cambio del paisaje boscoso y su impacto en la distribución de Dipsas elegans en el norte de Ecuador

Abstract: La cuenca hidrográfica del río Mira en Ecuador posee una alta biodiversidad, sin embargo, el uso intensivo del suelo ha ocasionado cambios en el paisaje y ha generado alteraciones en la distribución de especies. El presente estudio evalúa los patrones espaciales del paisaje boscoso y sus impactos en la distribución de Dipsas elegans (Boulenger, 1986) mediante mapas temáticos de uso y cobertura de suelo derivados de imágenes satelitales Landsat de los años 1991, 2000 y 2017, y la generación de métricas para la … Show more

“…It is possible that the Ecuadorian Agrarian Reform of 1964 generated the conversion of the Inter-Andean Dry Forest to agriculture in the RCW. Moreover, since the 2000s, this conversion may have increased due to the expansion of the road system in the country, the population increase, and the low cost of the extraction of wood (Peters et al, 2013;Arévalo-Morocho et al, 2023). The findings of this study show that the Inter-Andean dry Forest represents one of the least extensive land-cover in the RCW landscape.…”

“…The accuracy of the 1991 and 2000 images was calculated through land-cover maps. These maps were created in previous studies (Rodríguez-Echeverry & Leiton, 2021;Arévalo-Morocho et al, 2023). The following cover classes, or land-uses, were identified on each map: Inter-Andean Dry Forest, agriculture, paramo, Thorn Forest, Tropical Montane Forest, shrub vegetation, bare land, urban areas, and water bodies.…”
