El objetivo de este documento es ayudar a los países que tratan de desarrollar un nivel de referencia de emisiones forestales y/o un sistema de referencia forestal (NREF/NRF) de REDD+ en el marco de la CMNUCC. El documento facilita un repaso estructural de los requisitos de la CMNUCC para la elaboración de NREF/NRF, resumiendo las orientaciones de la CMNUCC y extrapolando los elementos necesarios para la elaboración de un NREF/NRF.

The article is an interview to Claudio Zucca, ICARDA Soil Conservation and Land Management Specialist, on the relevance of dryland waters.
This chapter sets out to present a short review of (i) the general context of land degradation under the framework of UNCCD – the international convention on desertification with a specific focus on Land Degradation Neutrality, and (ii) examples of the main processes responsible for soil degradation (e.g. surface crusting, runoff and water erosion, tillage erosion, wind erosion, and salinization), along with the principles of desertification control and land rehabilitation, in light of the socioeconomic context and ecological conditions and processes.
States of ecological maturity and temporal trends of drylands in Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia north of 28 N are reported for 1998–2008. The input data were Normalized Difference Vegetation Index databases and corresponding climate fields, at a spatial resolution of 1 km and a temporal resolution of one month. States convey opposing dynamics of human exploitation and ecological succession. They were identified synchronically for the full period by comparing each location to all other locations in the study area under equivalent aridity.
Land resources are one of nature’s most precious gifts. They feed us and help our societies and economies to thrive. Land resources are one of nature’s most precious gifts. They feed us and help our societies and economies to thrive. Some 2.5 billion agricultural smallholders worldwide manage around 500 million small farms, providing more than 80 per cent of food consumed in Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa. These resources are being degraded at an alarming pace.
Policy recommendations on sustainable land management in Kazakhstan, including the costs and benefits of alternative management options. Conclusion: More sustainable land management in desert forests can lead to economic and environmental benefits
Marrakech, 11 November 2016 – A new report launched today by the UN’s International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) reveals the crucial role the world’s drylands play in buffering the negative impacts of climate change, land degradation and drought.
