El presente trabajo de investigación de la evaluación del servicio ambiental de captura de carbono fue realizado en el Centro Poblado Alto Perú, Región de Tacna durante los meses de septiembre a diciembre del 2019. El trabajo empezó con una primera fase de gabinete, la cual consistió en recopilar toda la información posible del área de estudio, incluyendo la descarga de imágenes del satélite Landsat 8, con el fin de calcular el Índice de Vegetación de Diferencia Normalizada (NDVI) y así dividir el área de estudio según el estado de conservación de la cobertura vegetal. Durante la segunda fase del estudio se procedió a realizar la recolección de las muestras en campo, siguiendo la metodología del Centro Mundial Agroforestal (2009) recolectando 03 tipos de muestras denominadas como cobertura vegetal, turba/necromasa y suelo orgánico con el fin de calcular el carbono org...

The evaluation of the environmental carbon capture service was carried out in the Centro Poblado Alto Peru, Tacna Region, from September to December 2019. Work began with collecting information from the study area, including downloading images from the Landsat 8 satellite, in order to calculate the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and thus divide the study area according to the conservation status of plant cover. Subsequently, the samples were collected in the field, following the methodology of the World Agroforestry Centre (2009) collecting three types of samples referred to as; plant cover, peat/necromasse and organic soil in order to calculate the total organic carbon for each sample type. Finally, laboratory analyses were used for the determination of the carbon fraction and apparent density of the soil, the data of which were used for the total carbon stock. The result...

The study of the characterization of solid waste was carried out in the district La Yarada -Los Palos, Tacna Province, in order to analyze the home and non-domicile waste of homes, markets, schools, shops, hardware stores and curators. The methodology described by the Ministry of the Environment (2018) was used to determine the quantity and characteristics of solid waste by random sampling. The per capita generation of household solid waste was 0.470 kg/hab-day, in the physical composition, organic matter was found in greater quantity was 56.77 %, the average uncompacted density was 224,682 kg/m3 and the compacted 305,664 kg/m3. In terms of non-home waste, it was determined that educational institutions generate more solid waste at 38.47%, followed by grocery stores with 28.53%, fruit shops with 8.60%, restaurants 7.21% and places with 4.10%. With the information obtained, the manual lan...
