This document describes the current state of supramunicipal land-use planning (OT) programs and initiatives in Argentina, analyzing experiences at both the national and provincial levels.

This text outlines a chapter focused on reviewing the regulatory framework for territorial planning (OT) in Argentina, noting the absence of a comprehensive national law and the resulting market-driven allocation of territorial resources.

This text is a chapter from a book titled 'Ordenamiento Territorial Rural: Conceptos, métodos y experiencias', which describes the planning of Rural Territorial Ordering as a proactive methodology for decision-making and a prospective process aimed at resolving problems and aligning goals for a desired territorial system.

This research paper chapter examines the relationship between land-use changes (LUC) and land tenure conflicts in the province of Santiago del Estero, Argentina, between 2001 and 2010, within the broader context of deforestation in the Gran Chaco region.

This research paper examines how replacing native dry forests with pastures to increase livestock productivity affects water flow partitioning in the Arid Chaco plains of San Luis, Argentina.

This research paper analyzes temporal climate variability on the northern coast of the Bahía Blanca estuary in Argentina from 1960 to 2014 to inform land-use planning and improve population quality of life.

This research paper outlines a methodology for determining the dates of first and last frosts in Argentina to assist in agricultural planning. It aims to calculate key agroclimatic variables based on meteorological (0°C) and agrometeorological (3°C) thresholds and create a reliable, accessible database for users.

This research paper describes a climatic zoning study of the Argentine Pampas using data from 33 National Meteorological Service stations between 1960 and 2010 to define eight distinct climatic subregions.

This research paper assesses the relationship between climatic variability, specifically the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO), land use, and the areal variations of shallow lakes in the temperate plains of Argentina between 2002 and 2011.

This research paper reviews the institutional forms of interdisciplinary initiatives at the University of Buenos Aires (UBA) from 1983 to 2015, analyzing how these initiatives evolved in response to neoliberal policies in the 1990s and subsequent national scientific and technological policies under the Kirchner presidencies.

This case study analyzes the 'Reunión de Consenso' (Consensus Meeting) hosted by Argentina's National Meteorological Service (SMN), focusing on the socio-cultural and institutional dynamics involved in producing quarterly climate forecasts through a collaborative network of academic, technical, and scientific institutions.

This research paper analyzes the relationship between wind patterns, sea surface temperature (SST), and the occurrence of the stinging medusa Olindias sambaquiensis at Monte Hermoso, Argentina, between 2008 and 2015.

This research paper examines the hydrogeomorphological dynamics of the Bajo de Sarmiento in extra-Andean Patagonia, analyzing how the combination of long-term climatic variability and human activity has impacted water bodies from the Holocene to the present.

This research paper identifies five major barriers—integration, language, fieldwork logistics, personnel and relationships, and time commitment—faced by an international, interdisciplinary NSF-PIRE research project operating across Argentina, Brazil, and Mexico.

This research paper describes the collaborative dynamics of two projects aimed at providing climate services and drought monitoring in southern South America, specifically focusing on the southwest of the Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina.

This research paper examines the role of soil seed banks, litter seed banks, and juvenile plant banks as sources of vegetation resilience for dominant woody species in the semiarid Neotropical Chaco forest of Córdoba, Argentina, across varying levels of land-use intensity.

The research proposes two quantitative Resprouting Capacity Indices (RCI 1 and RCI 2) to measure the post-fire recovery of seasonally dry forest species, demonstrating that these indices provide more detailed data than survival-based assessments and are influenced by species, growth form, and plant size.

This research paper examines how water policies in the arid Americas interact with land and neoliberal policies to exacerbate vulnerabilities among disadvantaged groups across rural and urban settings. The authors analyze four specific case studies to demonstrate how disconnected management, water rights transfers, and competition for resources increase disparities and recommend more inclusive policymaking and systematic data collection to protect livelihoods.
