Abstract:
As mass tourism is spreading throughout Latin America, haphazard growth is threatening the environment and local communities. In an effort to mitigate social and environmental impacts an alternative approach towards tourism development utilizes principles of ecotourism and smart growth to balance tourism, community, and environmental goals in order to maintain a healthy environment and contribute to the local community. Located several miles south of the town of Todos Santos in Baja California Sur, Mexico, Las Palmas is a 490 acre site with a mixed use development focused on ecological preserv

Abstract:
The Santa Rosalia basin is a NW-SE elongated and fault limited basin, which evolved from Upper Miocene to Pleistocene time. The transtensional Upper Miocene Santa Rosalia basin located in central Baja California, consists of almost 500 m of nonmarine to marine sedimentary rocks, with tuffaceous beds interbedded in its lower part. The sedimentary rocks consist of the Boleo Formation, which is 200 to 300 m thick and is dominated in its lower part by marine transgressive sediments and evaporite bodies followed by 170 to 300 m of clastic coarsening upward fan-delta marine-nonmarine sequence.

Abstract:
The Mexican Ministry of Education (SEP) recognizes that teachers in general possess no training in environmental education or in strategies that facilitate participation amongst students. However, following the Mexican government approval of the Law of Environmental Education, in 2005, the inclusion of environment education in the elementary school curricula of Baja California Sur, Mexico, has become a priority. This study approaches this shortfall to consider the use of dialogic teaching as a strategy for increasing environmental awareness, whether if it can support children’s own sense of ag

Abstract:
Continental rifts are commonly flanked by zones of high elevation. Proposed uplift mechanisms include active and induced asthenospheric upwelling, and isostatically driven lithospheric flexure. Although these hypotheses make testable and distinct predictions of the relative timing of crustal extension and rift flank uplift, the difficulty of closely constraining these processes in modern or ancient rift zones means that the issue remains controversial. This study focuses on the Loreto rift segment of the Baja California peninsula, which forms the western margin of the Late Neogene Gulf of Cali

Abstract:
This research explores the politics of development on the East Cape of Baja California Sur, Mexico. Based upon twelve months of ethnographic research and participant observation, primarily in the coastal community of Cabo Pulmo, the researcher investigates and documents how local residents respond to the social and political implications of impending mass tourism development in the region. Rising land values, real estate speculation, and intensifying conflicts over land ownership were some of the earliest symptoms of this process. The central argument is that social conflicts over development

The Loreto basin is a Pliocene half-graben bounded by the 30 km long easterly dipping extensional Loreto fault, with 1.5 km throw. The Loreto basin uniquely provides a temporally constrained setting that couples preserved alluvial architecture with marine depositional geometries that enables these controls to be distinguished. The depositional architecture of each cycle is reconstructed by correlating 61 close-spaced (20 m to 320 m), detailed (1:5000) section

More recent discovery of gold deposits along the Baja peninsula instigated a renewed interest in mineralization in the Sierra Cacachilas. The area lacks detailed previous geologic data,
