Procesos físicos del suelo en la reserva ecológica del Pedregal de San Ángel de Ciudad Universitaria: atributos para su conservación.

Abstract: La Reserva Ecológica del Pedregal de San Ángel de Ciudad Universitaria (REPSA-CU) alberga una fracción del derrame original de lava del volcán Xitle y actualmente el suelo y la comunidad vegetal son afectados por la fragmentación del paisaje, el depósito de residuos de relleno (como cascajo y otros materiales) y las construcciones irregulares. Se realizó una descripción de las principales propiedades físicas del suelo en sitios con topografía contrastante (planos abiertos conservados y perturbados, grietas y h… Show more

“…We observed this pattern in the rainy season, but in the dry season in headlands the number of inputs was almost four times bigger than in the rainy season, O n l i n e f i r s t and also was almost four times bigger than in hollows. According to Soberón et al (1991) and Castellanos-Vargas et al (2017), this can be explained by gravitational water runoff transport that carries particles from microenvironments at high elevations (like headlands) to microenvironments at lower elevations (like hollows), which is consistent with our results observed in the rainy season. During the dry season, the absence of rain reverses this phenomenon, since there is no rain that promotes the seeds secondary dispersal.…”

“…La revisión también reconoce las contribuciones de pioneros como Fukuoka (1965) y Sir Albert Howard, cuyas investigaciones destacaron la importancia de la conservación del suelo y la materia orgánica (Castellanos-Vargas et al, 2017;Vasquez et al, 2019). Se aborda el impacto socioeconómico de estas técnicas, especialmente en las comunidades agrícolas de regiones en desarrollo, y se sugieren políticas y prácticas para una agricultura sostenible (Delgado & Treminio, 2022).…”

“…This vegetation type is associated with a high biodiversity, having almost 1,820 species of all taxonomic groups recognized, 32 of which are under protection by Mexican laws and 54 of which are endemic to Mexico (e.g., Lot and Cano-Santana 2009;Zambrano et al 2016). The specifics of this ecosystem strongly rely on the peculiar microtopography of the lava, which yields variable conditions of temperature, humidity, light, and organic soil depth, promoting many biological adaptations in a climate alternating between clear dry and rainy seasons (e.g., Castellanos-Vargas et al 2017).…”

“…The diversity in lava morphology in terms of slope, roughness, and fracture pattern, and associated soil thickness, produces high biodiversity through the crucial role of microsites (or microhabitats) (Cano-Santana et al 2006;Castellanos-Vargas et al 2017).…”
