Landuse change, biofuels and rural development in the La Plata Basin
Summary
The provided text is a publication list for a project titled 'Landuse change, biofuels and rural development in the La Plata Basin'. It enumerates various academic papers, theses, and reports published between 2006 and 2011. The listed works focus on ecohydrology, satellite monitoring of land use, the environmental and social impacts of biofuels in South America, and the ecological footprint of agricultural expansion, particularly in Argentina, Brazil, and Uruguay.
Key insights
- The project's output includes research on the environmental and social dimensions of biofuels, specifically examining Brazilian biodiesel policy and the role of ethanol in urban pollutant mitigation.
- Research within the project assessed the ecological consequences of agricultural expansion and land cover change in Argentina, including studies on the 'ecological and environmental footprint of 50 years of agricultural expansion'.
- The publications utilize satellite-based monitoring and data assimilation systems to analyze ecosystem changes and evapotranspiration in South America and the La Plata Basin.
- The project investigated the relationship between land use and hydrology, including the effects of afforestation on soil cations and stream acidification, as well as groundwater dynamics in the Western Pampas.
