Description

Explore the complex environmental dynamics of the South American Andes with this specialized academic text. Part of the IHE Delft PhD Thesis Series, this book examines the unique ecosystem services provided by Paramo grasslands, including biodiversity support, carbon sequestration, and vital water storage capabilities. As land use changes increase due to expanding agriculture, intensified grazing, and land burning, understanding these shifts becomes more important. This research addresses the socio-economic drivers that influence local communities to change how they use the land for income generation. Rather than focusing on isolated details, this work provides an integrated approach to understanding the ecohydrology of the Paramo region. It serves as a necessary resource for those studying how human activity and environmental management interact in high-altitude mountainous regions.
