Chronicle of the Conservation of Peruvian Biodiversity (2022) is the book written by Marc Dourojeanni, who recounts the efforts made, in the last 60 years, by scientists, environmentalists, managers, politicians, and park rangers, in favor of the conservation of flora and fauna species (wildlife) in natural areas protected by the State, private conservation areas, species management practices in terrestrial environments, continental waters and the sea.

The impact of environmental education in the world has had a positive impact on student awareness. However, this problem involves a necessary approach of university pedagogical positions to achieve the effect that is needed in the students and thus achieve the training objective. The purpose of this article is to make known the pedagogical contributions related to three thematic axes: currents in environmental education, didactic approaches and methodological strategies. The methodology used is based on the exhaustive and systematic review of seminal articles and government reports to progressively guide the search towards articles in high impact journals; which has allowed us to reflectively analyze their development over four decades. Therefore, it is intended that the research constitutes a basis for the approach of future pedagogical approaches that allow a better teaching of environ...

The birds that habit in the basin of Titicaca lake have a wide distribution which includes, mountain ranges and "pajonales of puna". The Titicaca lake is recognized by the Ramsar Convention as Wetland of International Importance. In the present work, 135 species comprised in 17 orders, 33 families and 83 genders have been registered. With regard to seasonality, 95 species are residents and 40 are from other latitudes, of which 17 species are Nearctic migrants, 10 migratory species come from the Austral Region, and 13 species make vertical migrations from The Peruvian Andes to the coastal region. For the time they spend in most environments, 81 species are terrestrial, 45 aquatic and 9 in flight. Therefore, the results obtained have determined that the species of resident birds spend all year in the Titicaca basin: the neartic migrants from September to March, the austral migratory birds ...

The cattle heron is native of the tropical and subtropical areas of Africa and Asia, from where it arrived on the northeast coast of SouthAmerica in 1877 and extended its distribution range to Central America and North America. It has undergone dynamic demographictransformations that have led to the colonization of vast areas, through a process of world expansion that has turned it into a cosmopolitanbird. Various factors such as its large size, long-distance flight capacity, its omnivore condition, its opportunistic nature, its remarkableability to adapt to new environments; as well as deforestation and the establishment of grasslands for cattle on a large scale, havecontributed to the expansion of its distribution range. In the present work a historical review of the colonization of the cattle heron iscarried out since its arrival to America. Here we would see how geographic and enviro...

In the Wildlife Refuge Villa Swamps located in the central coast on an area of 263.27 ha, there were 211 species of birds of which officially 19 species are categorized as threatened. The current state of the conservation of threatened bird species, the range of dis- tribution and the trend of relationships are described, as well as the importance of the ha- bits of the Villa Swamps as a place of refuge and conservation of the species in Peru.

En este libro se presentan los resultados de diez años de investigaciones científicas continuas en los fundos de Agrokasa en Ica y Barranca. En esta etapa nos hemos dedicado a encontrar soluciones a los problemas que se presentan en el campo, particularmente en una actividad tan especializada como es la agricultura moderna. Mayor aun el requerimiento de buscar soluciones a temas que tradicionalmente no fueron tratados por el sector agrícola y en el que la rutina estaba orientada a la búsqueda de buenos suelos y al enriquecimiento, a la selección de semillas mejoradas, a la elevación de la productividad de los cultivos y a la comercialización a precios convenientes. En ese escenario tradicional, las aves ni siquiera eran mencionadas o, si así sucedía, les correspondían términos despectivos, como “plagas que generan daños a los frutos”. Sin embargo, los estudios ecológicos...

El presente trabajo es el resultado de una investigación seria y sistemática de largo alcance, financiada por el sector privado en un esfuerzo por satisfacer la urgente necesidad de buscar soluciones a sus problemas a través de la investigación básica como actividad creativa primordial, más allá de la importación de paquetes tecnológicos desarrollados para otras realidades. Los fundos de AGROKASA, Santa Rita y La Catalina, están situados en Ica, departamento eminentemente costero, que también incluye parte de sierra. El departamento está ubicado al Sur de Lima y al Norte de Arequipa, su extensión es de poco más de 21 mil km2 y se localiza aproximadamente entre los 13º y 15º30’ Latitud Sur, y entre los 74º45’ y 76º15’ Longitud Oeste. Las evaluaciones fueron realizadas en abril y agosto de 2003; enero, abril y agosto de 2004; enero, marzo y agosto de 2005; y enero d...

Este es un libro que en sus catorce capítulos encierra los conocimientos elementales requeridos para estudiar esta disciplina. Puede ser utilizado con provecho por estudiantes, y esperamos que los científicos de la comunidad peruana puedan tener un punto de referencia, para que su aporte sea cada vez mejor.

El constante avance de la globalización ha originado cambios sustanciales en el estilo de dirección de las instituciones de educación básica, las cuales demandan que los directivos, además de ser profesionales del campo educativo, posean conocimientos de técnicas y herramientas de las Ciencias Administrativas para el logro de resultados. La presente investigación teórica analiza estudios previos sobre la gerencia en las instituciones de educación básica, enfatizando en dos aspectos primordiales como son la gestión del talento humano y el marketing educativo. Por el lado del talento humano, existen conceptos muy arraigados dentro de éste, como son el liderazgo y la cultura institucional, los cuales tienen una incidencia directa en el desempeño educativo. En el marketing educativo existen siete variables (producto, precio, plaza, promoción, personas, procesos y evidencias fí...

The experience of waterbird censuses in Peru started at the beginning of Century XXth with this kind of censuses made by the Peruvian Guano Company and then by IMARPE. Between 1992 and 2016, annual censuses have been conducted in 61 wetlands on 12 Peruvian departments, a total of 151 residents and migratories birds were registered. Censuses have contributed greatly to improve species of waterbirds knowledge and synergies among institutions and ornithologist that through volunteerism collect important data to the conservation of species and wetland management with particular reference to the high Andean slopes. The taxonomic composition of the species, the importance of the inventories, the migration routes of birds from the Nearctic, Austral and high Andean regions, and the protected areas in the conservation of wetlands and biodiversity are analyzed. The aim of this paper is to make a h...

The oil spill that occurred on the sea coast of the La Pampilla Refinery has caused an environmental disaster of incalculable dimensions. Reports indicate that the product of the spill is 11,900 barrels of oil and the spread of crude oil is 1,739,000 square meters, which includes 24 contaminated beaches and 116 square kilometers impacted by the oil, between sea and land. The spilled oil has been displaced by marine currents in a northerly direction, affecting the habitats and biodiversity of the 512 hectares of the Reserva Nacional Sistema de Islas, Islotes y Puntas Guaneras and the 1758.1 hectares of the Zona Reservada Ancón. Nearly 500 species of invertebrates, marine algae, birds and mammals have been directly affected and, likely, they will not return to the habitats where they resided before the spill and which have been destroyed by the contamination. The objective of the editoria...
