description The state of Nayarit is located at NW from the Mexican Republic, in its territory converge four important Phisiographic Provinces; Sierra Madre Oriental, Cinturón Volcánico Trans-Mexicano, Sierra Madre del Sur and the Llanura Costera del Pacífico. Every one of them, has a specific geological substratum as a response to different genesis, these characteristics favour the existence of outstanding differences in elevation in short distances and therefore a potential for geomorphological and climatic diversities, these aspects are responsables for the existence of different landscapes. The Llanura Costera del Pacífico (Pacific Coastal Plain) ocupies a small área located at NW of the state and represent 445 069 ha, in this surface was made an ecological regionalization which has as started point the characterization of geomormological units; of land cover and use of soil. With this purpose it was developed a system of hierarchic classification which delineate environments, landscapes y geomorphological sub-landscapes, associated with edaphological data. On the other hand, was realized the cover of land and use of soil through the use of digital orthophotos, satelite images, thematic cartography (1:50 000), points verified on the field and site description with soil auger. The results were integrated and analized using an ArcView 3.2 geographic information system, in this way it was possible to identify 58 ecological regions, gathered in 11 sub-landscapes, 4 geomorphological landscapes and two geomorphological regions.

Cada una de ellas tiene un sustrato geológico específico como repuesta a una génesis diferente, estas características favorecen la existencia de marcadas diferencias de altura en distancias cortas y por tanto un potencial en la variedad geomorfológica y climática, estos aspectos son los responsables de la existencia de una diversidad de paisajes. La Llanura Costera del Pacífico ocupa un pequeño sector localizado al noroeste del estado y representa 445 069 ha, en esta superficie se hace una regionalización ecológica que tiene como punto de partida la caracterización de unidades geomorfopedológicas; de cobertura del terreno y uso del suelo. Con este fin se desarrolló un sistema de clasificación jerárquica que define ambientes, paisajes y subpaisajes geomorfológicos, a los cuales se asociaron datos edafológicos. Por otra parte, se realizó el levantamiento de cobertura y de uso del suelo mediante el empleo de ortofotos digitales, imágenes de satélite, cartografía temática (1:50 000), verificación de campo y descripción de puntos con barrena. Los resultados obtenidos se integraron y analizaron utilizando un sistema de información geográfica ArcView 3.2, de esta manera fue posible identificar 58 regiones ecológicas, agrupadas en 11 subpaisajes, cuatro paisajes geomorfológicos y dos regiones geomorfológicas.Instituto de Geografía2009-10-05info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://www.investigacionesgeograficas.unam.mx/index.php/rig/article/view/1800210.14350/rig.18002Investigaciones Geográficas; No. 69Investigaciones Geográficas; Núm. 692448-72790188-4611reponame:Investigaciones Geográficasinstname:UNIVERSIDAD NACIONAL AUTÓNOMA DE MÉXICOinstacron:UNAMspahttps://www.investigacionesgeograficas.unam.mx/index.php/rig/article/view/18002/17143info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/180022024-11-05T15:50:16Z
