Popis: | Characteristics of relief, vegetation, farmland, and forest exploitations were obtained of the Temascaltepec River Basin, in the western and southwestern slopes of the Nevado de Toluca Vulcano, in Central Mexico. The main crops were characterized for each of the 15 communities of the basin. A percentage of the land covered with forest was established for each of the 148 areas considered for forest exploitation. The majority of the forests localized between 2 000 and 3 000 m, have less than 60% of their area covered by woods. Larger cover of forests areas are constituted by Pinus and Abies–Pinus communities. The average slope dominant of the croplands is 11º and its limits are from 4.7º to 11.4 º. The main crops at regional level are corn, oat and potato. The processing and information analysis were done in a GIS PC–based software. |
