La danta centroamericana (Tapirus bairdii) es el mamífero terrestre de mayor tamaño en el Neotrópico. Es un importante dispersor de semillas que contribuye al enriquecimiento de especies en los bosques donde habita. Varios estudios ecológicos han permitido conocer esta especie discreta; sin embargo, su distribución y el tamaño de sus poblaciones permanece sensiblemente desconocido fuera de las áreas silvestres protegidas. El propósito de esta investigación consistió en proponer una metodología de análisis geo-espacial sencilla que permitiera realizar una evaluación rápida del hábitat potencial para la danta centroamericana. Se seleccionaron siete variables de la ecología de la danta centroamericana, las cuales fueron evaluadas en el Corredor Biológico San Juan-La Selva, mediante un sistema de información geográfica (SIG). Estimamos la población de dantas con un rango de 69 a 208 individuos. Esto es una manera barata de determinar la viabilidad del hábitat de la danta cuando existe información confiable sobre los procesos dinámicos de los ecosistemas presentes en el área del estudio.Palabras clave: Tapiridae, danta centroamericana, Tapirus bairdii, evaluación de hábitat, analisis geo-espacial, Corredor Biológico San Juan-La Selva, Costa RicaAbstract: Baird’s Tapir (Tapirus bairdii) is the largest terrestrial mammal in the Neotropics. It is an important seed disperser that contributes to the enrichment of species in the forests where it lives. Several ecological studies on this species have generated knowledge about this discreet species; nevertheless, its distribution and the size of its populations outside protected wildlife areas sensibly remain unknown. The purpose of this investigation consisted in proposing a simple methodology of geo-space analysis that allowed realizing a fast evaluation of the potential habitat for Baird’s Tapir. Seven variables of the ecology of Baird’s Tapir were selected, which were evaluated in the San Juan-La Selva Biological Corridor, using a geographical information system (GIS) program. We estimated the tapir population to range from 69 to 208 individuals. This is an inexpensive way to assess Tapir’s habitat viability when there is a strong knowledge about the dynamic processes from the ecosystems present in the study area.Key Words: Tapiridae, Baird’s Tapir, Tapirus bairdii, habitat viability assessment, geo-spatial analysis, San Juan-La Selva Biological Corridor, Costa Rica

El presente trabajo se realizó en el distrito central del cantón de Bagaces, Guanacaste, Costa Rica y tiene como propósito evaluar el impacto de la II fase del proyecto de Riego Arenal-Tempisque en el hábitat potencial del venado cola blanca (odocoileus virginianus). Los resultados del estudio indican que la II etapa del Proyecto de Riego impactará 4.633 hectáreas del hábitat clasificado como alto para el venado. SUMMARY The aim of this paper is to discuss and illustrate the usefulness of the GIS in the evaluation of the impact of the II Phase of the Arenal-Tempisque irrigation project on the habitat of white-tailed deer. The study area is the central canton of Bagaces in Guanacaste, Costa Rica. Once fully developed, the irrigation project will impact 4633 hectares of prime deer habitat.

Este ensayo tuvo como finalidad primordial señalar la importancia que encierra, para fines planificadores, el conocimiento de la distribución de los valores del suelo dentro de un área urbana determinada. Asi tomada como el area de estudio; el distrito 1 o el Carmen, y localizada en la porción noroeste de la ciudad capital de Costa Rica, toda una serie de factores o variables que presentan gran relevancia en la fijación de valores para su suelo, fuero fijados y analizados, una vez caracterizada el area bajo análisis. En búsqueda de un modelo que se adapte a tal situación, se realizo una revisión bibliográfica y los principios modelo sobre el valor del suelo fueron presentados. Con los datos e informaciones recibidos en las diferentes instituciones mencionadas a lo largo del trabajo, y con el material recopilado en el campo, se llevo a cabo una cuantificación de los mismos, principalmente mediante el uso de un sistema de clasificación del dato esencial (valor del suelo) y, posteriormente, una serie de correlaciones –regresiones, simples y múltiples-, fue realizada con el fin de comprobarlas hipótesis planteadas y  con ello llegar a un análisis de los resultados obtenidos que permitiese brindar algunas recomendaciones al respecto. Otra finalidad de este consiste en demostrar la importancia del trabajo del geógrafo en el proceso  de la fijación de los valores para el terreno, sea urbano, sea rural, y cualquiera sea el fin que persiga: valores fiscales, valores reales, comerciales y, por qué no, hasta especulativos. SUMARY The main objetive of this investigation is to demonstrate the importance of the distribution of land values in an urban area in regards to the planning process. The chosen study area is the first district (Carmen) located in the northeast section of  the capital city of San José. Once the study area had been chosen, a series of factors and variables relavant to the fixation of land values, were chosen and analyzed. In the search for a model that could be adapted to the situation, a bibliographic revision was made concerning the topic of land values, and a list of possible land values, and a list of possible land value models was presented. In was possible to quantify the data information obtained from the different institutions mentioned in the investigation as well as from the material collected in the field; principally by means of a classification system of essential data ( land values), and later, series of simple and multiple correlation regressions were applied with the primary purpose being to confirm  the main hypothesis and then, arrive at an analysis of the obtained results that permit respective recommendations. Another purpose of the investigation consisted in demonstrating the importance of the geographer in the process of determining urban and rural land values and even for speculative purposes.

Communities, neighborhoods, and other environments are currently immersed in a series of situations and problems that have favored the deterioration of social, cultural and spiritual values, which are essential for harmony with oneself, others, and the environment. Stereotypes have captured minds and settings have been reduced to indoor spaces, hemmed in by security bars and protective devices.  Peace, fraternity and happiness are diminishing.  It is at this point that the social, spiritual and professional work of specialists in the recreational field contributes to rescue and restructure society. Traditional games and singing games are then the tools used to facilitate relationships, contribute to the learning process, and exhibit skills.  They are fundamental in a person’s life since they are a social and cultural expression of how humans have adapted to their environment (Maestro, 2005).  They do not take ethnicity, age, sex or social conditions into consideration.  Traditional games are also a way of promoting health, improving motor, cognitive and emotional skills and a means of encouraging creativity and imagination and developing a sense of rhythm.  Their goal is to attain a state of personal well-being.  They are a way to release tension and accumulated energy and to get away from the daily routine.  They represent a bridge to learn about oneself, the environment, values, habits, and traditions. In this document, readers will learn how traditional games are transmitted, what their characteristics are, why they are an important tool in today’s society, how they are prepared, and how they can be revived and preserved.
