Expansión urbana en las áreas litorales de América Latina y Caribe

Abstract: RESUMENLas áreas litorales de América Latina y Caribe (ALC) se encuentran cada vez más afectadas por los asentamientos humanos. La expansión urbana conlleva un importante cambio en los usos del suelo, especialmente sobre el litoral. La presente investigación analiza este proceso desde un punto de vista cualitativo y cuantitativo. Se estudia la evolución de la población en todas las ciudades de ALC mayores a 100.000 habitantes, litorales e interiores entre 1945 y 2014. El método empleado relaciona diferentes fu… Show more

“…The lowland rural development cluster had low road density, while the Argentina Humid Pampas, highland mining, and agriculture expansion clusters had the densest road network (Table 4). In general, the hotspots of infrastructure expansion were located in low elevation zones (Figure 3, Table 4) as most urban areas and productive lands are generally located in lowlands and coastal areas [51]. The Caatinga and lowland rural development clusters were located mainly in areas < 1000 m, while the highland mining cluster was composed of hotspots of infrastructure expansion located above 2500 m (Table 4).…”

“…Con los resultados del proyecto MINGA, se demuestra la viabilidad de las estrategias propuestas para la renovación de los frentes marítimos en las ciudades costeras del trópico mediante viviendas de bajo costo en altura, con una densidad habitacional que usa adecuadamente la infraestructura urbana existente y logra frenar el crecimiento de las áreas urbanas de las ciudades, atendiendo una problemática muy sensible en las ciudades litorales de América Latina y el Caribe (Barragán y De Andrés, 2016). El proyecto logra altos estándares de sostenibilidad puesto que su costo de construcción permite que sea subsidiado dentro de la política de VIS en Colombia.…”

“…Some urban centers have developed uncontrollably in areas of Latin America previously covered by mangroves. The loss of mangroves in an area exercise strong pressure on the remnants of the natural ecosystem (Barragán and De Andrés 2016), producing negative effects on local environmental (e.g. water quality) and biological (e.g.…”
