Conflicto armado en Colombia posible fin de una era
This project called "Armed conflict in Colombia: End of an Era" is the study of history and the causes that led to the creation of armed conflict in Colombia. Aims to understand the context in which manner, in away you can distinguish several features where you can find strength sand weaknesses to determine the situation that was in its early years and the situation that is currently. This paper begins with a review of historical data and representative where clarify the mechanisms they use these groups to achieve their goals, to then make a review to help us understand why the weakening of the armed groups in recent years. Based on this weakness, by the comparison and contrast of the conflict’s history, I seek to have a clear idea of the possible future of conflict or show any differences in the coming years in the case has not ended.Este proyecto denominado “Conflicto armado en Colombia: Fin de una Era”, es el estudio de la historia y las causas que originaron la creación del conflicto armado en Colombia. Tiene como objetivo entender el contexto en el que se desarrolla, de una manera en la que se pueda distinguir varias características donde pueda encontrar fortalezas y debilidades para determinar la situación en la que se encontraba en sus primeros años y la situación en la que se encuentra actualmente. Este trabajo empieza con el repaso de los datos históricos y representativos donde se aclaran los mecanismos que usan estos grupos para poder lograr sus objetivos, para posteriormente, hacer un repaso que nos ayude a comprender el porqué del debilitamiento de los grupos armados en los últimos años. En base a este debilitamiento, mediante la comparación y contraste con los datos históricos, busco poder tener una idea clara del posible futuro del conflicto o las diferencias que pueda mostrar en los próximos años en el caso de que no haya llegado a su fin
NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES: a data set on carnivore distribution in the Neotropics
Mammalian carnivores are considered a key group in maintaining ecological health and can indicate potential ecological integrity in landscapes where they occur. Carnivores also hold high conservation value and their habitat requirements can guide management and conservation plans. The order Carnivora has 84 species from 8 families in the Neotropical region: Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Otariidae; Phocidae; Procyonidae; and Ursidae. Herein, we include published and unpublished data on native terrestrial Neotropical carnivores (Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Procyonidae; and Ursidae). NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES is a publicly available data set that includes 99,605 data entries from 35,511 unique georeferenced coordinates. Detection/non-detection and quantitative data were obtained from 1818 to 2018 by researchers, governmental agencies, non-governmental organizations, and private consultants. Data were collected using several methods including camera trapping, museum collections, roadkill, line transect, and opportunistic records. Literature (peer-reviewed and grey literature) from Portuguese, Spanish and English were incorporated in this compilation. Most of the data set consists of detection data entries (n = 79,343; 79.7%) but also includes non-detection data (n = 20,262; 20.3%). Of those, 43.3% also include count data (n = 43,151). The information available in NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES will contribute to macroecological, ecological, and conservation questions in multiple spatio-temporal perspectives. As carnivores play key roles in trophic interactions, a better understanding of their distribution and habitat requirements are essential to establish conservation management plans and safeguard the future ecological health of Neotropical ecosystems. Our data paper, combined with other large-scale data sets, has great potential to clarify species distribution and related ecological processes within the Neotropics. There are no copyright restrictions and no restriction for using data from this data paper, as long as the data paper is cited as the source of the information used. We also request that users inform us of how they intend to use the data
