The coastal – marine zone of the Metropolitan area of Lima-Callao (ZCMLC), is an environmental unit composed by two ecosystems: coastal and marine with biological, economical and cultural significance. However in recent years, it has been suffering problems caused by the inadequate use of soil caused by urban growth, environmental degradation and the neglect of the authorities who are responsible for the administration. To face this problem, some goals were raised such as the establishment of delimitation of the coastal - marine zone of the Metropolitan area of Lima - Callao, the identification of areas that present conflicts of land use and the identification of environmental critical areas. The ZCMLC, represents about 117648 ha, coastal and marine area included, where five environmental units were identified: Ancon-Santa Rosa (16108.87 hectares.); Ventanilla-Callao (38657.01 hectares...

La Zona Costera – Marina del área Metropolitana de Lima-Callao (ZCMLC) es una unidad ambiental conformada por dos ecosistemas: costero y marino con importancia biológica, económica y cultural. Sin embargo, en los últimos años viene sufriendo problemas por el mal uso del suelo ocasionado por el crecimiento urbano, degradación ambiental y la desidia de las autoridades responsables de su administración. Ante este problema, se planteó algunos objetivos como establecer la delimitación de la Zona Costera Marina del área Metropolitana de Lima y Callao, Identificar las áreas que presentan conflictos de uso del suelo y Determinar zonas ambientalmente críticas. La ZCMLC representa aproximadamente 117,648 ha involucrando ámbito costero y marino, donde se identificó cinco unidades ambientales: Ancón-Santa Rosa (16,108.87 ha); Ventanilla-Callao (38,657.01 ha); La Perla-Barranco (25,8...

Many countries of Latin America have used the sectoral planning I united purpose to administer activities and coastal resources, but in most of the cases these programs have not reached the maturation. The antecedents of study socioeconòmicos and environmental that one has in the study area, added to environmental monitoreos, you interview and other mensuration instruments that are used, allow to face a design of Planning and Integrated Administration of the coastal area, based on a holistic perspective. The present work has as purpose to propose an a methodology that serves as base to assign the best uses from the territory to the productive activities and services in the port of the Callao, to minimize the environmental impacts originated by the growth of activities and for the population’s growth in the short and medium term. This allows to the National University bigger than San M...

Muchos países de América Latina han empleado la planificación sectorial, un propósito para administrar actividades y recursos costeros, pero en la mayoría de los casos estos programas no han alcanzado la maduración. Los antecedentes de estudio socioeconómicos y ambientales que se tiene en el área de estudio, sumado a monitoreos ambientales, encuestas y otras instrumentos de medición que se utilizan, permite encarar un diseño de Planificación y Gestión Integrada de la zona costera, basados en una perspectiva holística. El presente trabajo tiene como finalidad proponer una una metodología que sirva de base para asignar los mejores usos del territorio a las actividades productivas y servicios en el puerto del Callao, para minimizar los impactos ambientales originados por el crecimiento de actividades y por el crecimiento de la poblacion en el corto y mediano plazo. Esto permit...

This present work makes part of the research project Environmental Evaluation and Recovery of the Bay of Paita, carried out in 2003 and sponsored by the High Research Council of the UNMSM. The present study has the aim of evaluating the environmental conditions of the Bay of Paita and its surrounding as well as to suggest solution strategies to the various environmental problems shown to improve populations’ life quality and to preserve environment and natural resources. Our conclusion is that there is impairment of both urban and physical environments, and activities incompatibility, which makes evident a lack of territorial ordering.
