“…El agua es uno de los recursos naturales esenciales para la vida y es parte esencial de la salud pública, la seguridad alimentaria, la energía, la conservación del ambiente, la educación, el crecimiento económico sostenible y tiene efecto en el cambio climático. Por ello, la conservación de los ecosistemas de agua dulce es de vital importancia para la sociedad y la economía, porque proveen una enorme variedad de bienes y servicios indispensables para la subsistencia humana como: provisión de agua para uso doméstico, industrial y agropecuario, energía, alimento, captación de carbono, navegación, servicios culturales, recreación y paisajes (Pulido Capurro et al, 2021). La calidad de los servicios depende de ecosistemas saludables, lo cual significa sin contaminación (Tognelli et al, 2016).…”

En el mundo gran parte de las fuentes de abastecimiento de agua subterránea y superficiales se ven afectadas por la presencia de manganeso (Mn2+) que es uno de los mayores contaminantes y causa impacto en el medio ambiente Las labores mineras subterráneas generan aguas ácidas, cuyo pH está entre 2 y 6; sin embargo, las compañías mineras no presentan metodologías para el control. Para el desarrollo del presente trabajo, se obtuvieron muestras de agua ácida desde la bocamina del área industrial de la unidad de producción minera Carahuacra (Compañía Minera Volcán S.A.A.), de acuerdo al Protocolo de Monitoreo de Aguas de la Autoridad Nacional del Agua (ANA), a los 4600 msnm, en la provincia de Yauli, Región Junín. El agua ácida estudiada tiene un pH entre 3.5 a 5.5 y una concentración de Mn2+ hasta 250 mg/L. Para cumplir con la normativa vigente, se requiere reducir la concentración por debajo de 0.2 mg/L (ECA-2017). El objetivo de la investigación es proponer el uso de hipoclorito de sodio (NaClO) como un agente oxidante para permitir su precipitación y separación. Se realizaron pruebas a diferentes pH, concentraciones (%) y consumos de hipoclorito de sodio (mg/L); lográndose una remoción de 99.96% de Mn2+. El rango óptimo de pH logrado está entre 8.5 y 8.8 mientras que la concentración y consumo del hipoclorito de sodio, responden a 0.05% y 1.0 mg/L respectivamente. El presente procedimiento puede ser aplicado por otras compañías para disminuir el ion Mn2+.

“…In Peru, there are few census and bird registration works specifically in wetlands, however, 151 species between residents and migratory species were recorded (Pulido Capurro et al, 2021); As is the case of Lake Titicaca, which has a Ramsar category of global importance, 135 species included in 17 orders, 33 families and 83 genera were found there, which demonstrates its relevance by evidencing resident, migratory, Nearctic, southern and native species.

Bird watching is a booming type of tourism that attracts a market segment with high purchasing power. The objective was to identify bird species to promote ecotourism in the Ricuricocha lagoon, Peru. The investigation was basic of exploratory level. Birds were inventoried through point counts, direct counts, intensive searches, and linear and strip transects. The results were the identification of 167 species of birds belonging to 48 families and 22 orders, 17 are of interest for bird watching, 10 migratory species, the most representative being the Tyrannidae family. It is concluded that the Ricuricocha lagoon has great potential to promote the ecotourism thanks to the variety and quantity of bird species it houses.

Wetlands are crucial hydrological features that provide benefits, including ecosystem services and habitat conservation, protection from flooding associated with sea level rise and extreme events, water storage and treatment, recreation, and aesthetics, among others. Peru is one of the few countries in Latin America that has not developed a national wetland inventory. While this can in part be attributed to the limited availability of peer-reviewed publications in the English literature, a larger quantity of Peruvian wetland-related publications are available in Spanish, and are less accessible to the global population. In this paper, we developed an extensive review and synthesis of the Spanish literature, including university theses, peer-reviewed articles, and government reports. Our report focuses on evaluating the state of the art of Peruvian wetlands in terms of temporal evolution, geographical distribution, vested institutions, research topics (e.g., water quality, fauna, flora, microorganisms, etc.), and advances toward the conservation of wetlands. The analysis identified 274 wetland-related publications in Spanish (188 theses, 83 peer-reviewed, and 6 government reports) and a temporal increase in dissemination over the past two decades. The reports encompassed 161 distinct wetlands distributed nationwide; however, most of the investigations focused on only a few wetland bodies with a disproportionate concentration in just three administrative regions. This reveals that wetland-related research is unevenly distributed in Peru, and highlights a need to extend this knowledge to underrepresented systems and regions. Although Peru ranks third in South America for protected (Ramsar) wetland areas, case studies have revealed that wetlands in the country are vulnerable to human activities. Recent national legislation established in 2021 should help to address this challenge, as before this time, there was a more decentralized approach, whereby each administrative region held responsibility for the protection of their own wetlands. Collective findings indicate that research activity should be increased nationally in order to better understand the function and benefits of wetlands throughout Peru, in addition to the continued development and enforcement of regulations designed to protect these valuable ecosystems. Finally, since a national Peruvian wetland inventory is urgently needed, this analysis provides a baseline for this development of, as well as identifying gaps in, knowledge needed for appropriate national representation.
