The effects of different types of land management on the soil macroinvertebrate communities on acid soil savannas of Colombia have been assessed using the Tropical Soil Biology and Fertility Program (TSBF) methodology. Invertebrates were identified among broad taxonomic units, TU (Orders or Famil...


Decaëns, ThibaudLavelle, Patrick M.Jiménez Jaén, J.J.Escobar, G.Rippstein, GSchneidmadl, JSanz Scovino, José IgnacioHoyos, P.Thomas, Richard J.[Impact of land management on soil macrofauna in the Eastern plains of Colombia]Impact of land management on soil macrofauna in the Eastern plains of Colombia

This was especially due to the presence of a large glossoscolecid anecic species, Martiodrilus carimaguensis Jim\233nez and Moreno, which has been greatly favored by conversion of savanna to pasture. Endogeic species were dominant in the natural savanna whereas the anecic species accounted for th...

This paper investigates the land management practices used in the highlands of Tigray, northern Ethiopia, the factors influencing them and their implications for crop production and income. Several factors commonly hypothesised to have a major impact on land management and agricultural production...

In this chapter, results of recent research conducted in the northern Ethiopian region of Tigray, which has experienced severe land degradation are synthesized. This paper highlights the technological and institutional factors determining the adoption of natural resource conservation at both the ...


Gebremedhin, BerhanuSwinton, S.M.[Sustainable management of private and communal lands in northern Ethiopia]Sustainable management of private and communal lands in northern Ethiopia

Over 70 years of familiarity with cocoa agroforests enables farmers of southern Cameroon to obtain food, medicinal plants and income from the ecosystem. Since 1994, social forestry activities in Cameroon have focused primarily on the idea of community forests. This approach is likely to encounter...

This paper summarises some of the prevailing issues and challenges in relation to forests and water. It highlights some of the key constraints to the utilisation of existing knowledge. Hydrological processes may be well understood at a plot level, or for a single particular land use/landcover typ...


Spilsbury, M.J.[Forests, water and mixed land use mosaics in developing countries: making research solutions effective]Forests, water and mixed land use mosaics in developing countries: making research solutions effective

The goal of this study is to characterize the sensible (H) and latent (LE) heat exchange for different land covers in the heterogeneous steppe landscape of the Xilin River catchment, Inner Mongolia, China. Eddy-covariance flux measurements at 50–100m above ground were conducted in July 2009 using...
