    El objetivo de este artículo es llamar la atención sobre la ocupación de la zona marítimo-terrestre (ZMT). En estos territorios coexisten situaciones legítimas, anómalas y anárquicas respecto con la tenencia de la tierra. La ingobernabilidad de la ZMT es producto de la inadecuada aplicación del marco legal y la ausencia de conocimiento sistematizado. La información sobre esta temática está muy dispersa, es escasa y además, poco accesible.

    Conakry: un modèle de ville coloniale française? Règlements fonciers et urbanisme, de 1885 aux années 1920 (Conakry: A Model of French Colonial Town? Landrights and Town-Planning, from 1885 to the 1920s)

    The dynamics of land occupation in Conakry is approached from the angle of both the colonial authorities and the local dwellers. The former took upon themselves the power of allocating plots and strove to enforce a colonial urban pattern. The latter succeeded in partly appropriating the town in spite of the minutiae of the law. As the urban area extended, Conakry was divided into three zones according to an ordinance of 1905. Although the third zone was officially termed 'native', there were no ethnic or national criteria.

    Conflicting Maps: How Legal Perspectives Could Minimize Zoning Cancellation in Republic of Korea

    Volume 10 Issue 3

    Peer-reviewed publication
    March, 2021
    Central African Republic, Democratic People's Republic of Korea, United States of America
    maps
    zoning

    The purpose of this paper is to propose legal and policy enhancements that may prevent the cancellation of the legal force of zoning due to discord with the Korean Land Use Regulation Map (LURM) and secure legal stability. The legal force of zoning has been canceled because of the discordance of the LURM with past cadastral maps, and this has led to confusion regarding zoning decisions and even the postponement and cancellation of public projects. Here, the causes of LURM discordance and legal cancellation of zoning were identified and evaluated through judicial precedents.

    De ministeries van LNV en VROM hebben een conceptmonitoringprogramma Groene Ruimte ontwikkeld. Momenteel vraagt de gegevensverzameling nog een aanzienlijke inspanning. Als in de toekomst een aantal geplande meetnetten operationeel is, zal dit waarschijnlijk minder worden. Het monitoringsysteem is zeer bruikbaar om een toestand te beschrijven. De systematiek van het systeem biedt structuur bij integratie van zeer uiteenlopende invalshoeken. In het proefproject was het monitoringsysteem minder geschiktvoor beleidsevaluatie, omdat weinig gegevens uit het verleden beschikbaar zijn.

    Rainfall, water, sediment yields and evaporation were quantified in three catchment areas with undisturbed rain forest, selectively logged forest, and forest with shifting cultivation respectively. Despite a considerable regional variation in rainfall(1700-2300 mm/a), annual evaporation rates were similar (1209-1314 mm/a). The impact of land use practices on water yield is negligible compared to the effect of rainfall.
