Summary: A satellite image of the los amigos conservation area property and trail maps.

Figure 1: During July-September 2002, the Los Amigos Botany Project initiated a collaboration with Mathias Tobler, who is now working at the American Museum of Natural History GIS laboratory in New York City. This collaboration will serve various purposes while working towards several interrelated, interdisciplinary research aims, some of which are provided in the following figures. This scene shows one of the products of the new collaborative research program: a georefenced trail map system of the Los Amigos Biological Station and adjacent property (white lines). Notice the large purple-blue zone (yellow star) in the center of the satellite image; it is a wetland ecosystem characterized by a transition between mixed flooded forest and a mono-dominant stand of the Aguaje Palm (Mauritia flexuosa- Arecaceae). Aguaje Palm swamps, also known as "aguajales", are a dominant factor in the landscape of the Peruvian Amazon, including the Madre de Dios basin.

Definition of a lens

Lenses

A lens is a custom view of Connexions content. You can think of it as a fancy kind of list that will let you see Connexions through the eyes of organizations and people you trust.

What is in a lens?

Lens makers point to Connexions materials (modules and collections), creating a guide that includes their own comments and descriptive tags about the content.

Who can create a lens?

Any individual Connexions member, a community, or a respected organization.

What are tags? tag icon

Tags are descriptors added by lens makers to help label content, attaching a vocabulary that is meaningful in the context of the lens.
