Resumen
En el Noroeste Argentino (NOA), que representa el 20% de la superficie de Argentina vive el 12% de la población del país. La región se caracteriza por una topografía de fuertes desniveles altitudinales (desde 180 hasta 7.084 m s.n.m.) donde se han desarrollado una serie de formaciones vegetales y usos del suelo caracterizados por campos de cultivo, ganadería, una incipiente industria y ciudades. La falta de planificación de múltiples recursos naturales (agua, suelo, bosques, recursos minerales, entre otros) ha llevado a una situación de insostenibilidad; si a ello se añade el cambio climático, la región se halla en una situación de cambios globales que podrían afectar a los recursos en las que se basan las actividades económicas.
With 20% of the surface of the country, the 12% of the population lives in Northwest Argentina (NOA). Tucumán has a rugged topography of strong altitudinal clines (from 180 to 7,084m a.s.l.) where a series of plant formations, animal species and environmental services have been developed, those have been replaced through time by intensive agriculture, extensive livestock, a nascent industry and some urban areas. The unplanned use of natural resources (including water, soil, forest, mineral resources, among others) in time, has brought the region to a serious environmental situation that can not qualify as sustainable. If we add to this scenario the effects of climate change, the region shows a state of global change that could affect both lasting resources and economic activities, with which the region has based its economy.
