Resumen: El rápido crecimiento de las carreras por montaña, ha motivado durante los últimos años su estudio. Aun son pocas las referencias bibliográficas que podemos encontrar a escala local, aunque algunas a nivel de España. Existen diferencias regionales, que demandan la necesidad de examinar este tipo de pruebas a una escala detallada. La Comunitat Valenciana, dada su extensión forestal y porcentaje de territorio montañoso (56 %), el número de espacios naturales (646) y superficie total protegida (40 %), se convierte en un buen ámbito de estudio. Una revisión bibliográfica y un análisis de la información recogida ha permitido determinar el número y la evolución de esta práctica en los últimos 25 años, la distribución espacial y temporal, y otras características de interés, como la tipología y los actores que intervienen.  La tendencia a realizar este tipo de actividades dentro de Espacios Naturales Protegidos, incita a conocer el alcance que reciben diferentes áreas protegidas, elegidas para el estudio, que vistos los resultados es bastante significativo. Surge entonces la necesidad de plantearse, si los métodos de gestión y regulación son adecuados. El objetivo no es prohibir las carreras por montaña, puesto que desde una perspectiva social y económica aportan muchos beneficios, sino hacer compatible su desarrollo con los valores de conservación y protección de los espacios naturales.   Palabras clave: Carreras por montaña, Comunidad Valenciana, Espacios Naturales Protegidos, Impacto ambiental.  Abstract: The fast increase of the mountain races events, has motivated recently the appearance of several studies. Still are few the available references at local scale, although some at Spanish level. There are regional differences that enhance the need of study that king of events in a local scale. The Comnunitat Valenciana, with large forested mountain areas (56 %), the number of natural reserves (646) and total protected proportion (40 %), becomes a good case of study. A literature review and an analysis of the collected information allowed to know the figures an evolution of the that practice during the last 25 years, its spatial and temporal distribution, among other relevant characteristics, like the kind of events and involved actors.  The tendency to organize that kind of events on Natural Protected Areas enhance the needs of evaluation of the affection to that areas, chosen for this paper, that seem clearly significative. The need arises then to consider whether the management and regulation methods are adequate. The objective is not to limit the mountain races, since from a social and economic perspective they provide many benefits, but to make their existence compatible with the protection and conservation of the natural areas.   Key words: Trail running, Valencia Autonomous Region, Natural protected areas, Environmental impact.

RESUMEN. Riqueza y rareza florísticas en los afloramientos dolomíticos de las Cordilleras Béticas (sur de España): ensayo preliminar. Sobre los afloramientos dolomíticos de las Cordilleras Béticas se desarrollan comunidades vegetales muy específicas y ricas en endemismos. Dichas comunidades no han sido estudiadas desde un punto de vista conservacionista. Este trabajo aborda su distribución, riqueza y grado de protección actuales permitiendo evaluar la eficacia de la red de espacios protegidos. Para ello, se ha creado una base de datos de presencia/ausencia de dolomitófilos en cuadrículas UTM de 10 km. de lado que han sido definidas como unidades geográficas operacionales (UGOs). Posteriormente, se ha evaluado la riqueza, la rareza en continuo y la rareza en discontinuo de las UGOs. Los resultados obtenidos han subrayado la importancia del sector Malacitano-Almijarense de la provincia Bética (en especial la zona del Trevenque) como centro de riqueza y endemicidad de dolomitófilos. Por otra parte, la red de espacios naturales abarca casi la totalidad de las localidades de mayor interés en la Comunidad Autónoma de Andalucía, mientras que tiene importantes lagunas en la Región de Murcia y en la provincia de Albacete (perteneciente a la Comunidad Autónoma de Castilla-La Mancha).Palabras clave. Dolomitófilo, dolomías, selección de reservas, endemismo, espacios naturales protegidos, flora.ABSTRACT. Floral richness and rarity in the dolomitic outcrops of the Baetic Ranges (southern Spain): a preliminary essay. The dolomitic areas of the Baetic Ranges house extremely peculiar plant communities. These communities are diverse and especially rich in endemic species. The vegetation and flora of the dolomitic outcrops have not been studied from a conservation point of view. This work is focused on the distribution, richness and current level of protection of these areas, consequently, it allows us to evaluate the efficacy of the protected areas network. In order to meet this goal, a “presence/absence” database of the dolomitic taxa has been carried out, according to UTM cells sized an area of 10 × 10 km. These cells have been used as “Operational Geographic Units” (OGU’s). In due course, the richness, the continuous and discontinuous rarity of every OGU have been evaluated. The results depicted the great importance of the Malacitano-Almijarense sector of the Baetic province (especially where the Trevenque mountain is located) as a spot of richness and endemicity of dolomitic taxa. In addition, the protected areas network appears to be quite efficient in meeting conservation objectives in the Region of Andalusia, whilst it is clearly deficient in the Region of Murcia and the Province of Albacete (included in the Region of Castilla-La Mancha).Key words. Dolomitic species, dolomites, selection of reserves, endemism, natural protected areas, flora.

Ecological interactions between mites (predatory and phytophagous) and wild plants growing in undisturbed environments play a crucial role to understand their natural settlement, development and dispersion patterns. Pequin chili pepper, Capsicum annuum L. var. glabriusculum, is a low-cost natural resource for local communities living inside Natural Protected Areas (ANP) of Tamaulipas State in Mexico. The aims of this research work were: 1) determine the spatial distribution pattern of predatory and phytophagous mites, 2) determine the spatiotemporal association between predatory and phytophagous mites, and 3) determine the association among different mite species and some phenological stages of Pequin chili pepper. The most abundant phytophagous mites were Tetranychus merganser and Aculops lycpoersici, and the predatory species were Amblyseius similoides, Euseius mesembrinus and Metaseiulus (Metaseiulus) negundinis. Most mite species showed an aggregated distribution pattern according to the plant phenological stages. However, the distribution of mite species throughout time showed different types of aggregation. On the other hand, we found positive associations among A. lycopersici and T. merganser phytophagous mites with A. similoides, E. mesembrinus and M. (M.) negundinis predators mites. The association between plants and mite species were influenced by the phenological stages of Pequin chili pepper. This is an indication of the complexity among trophic-chain interactions that depend largely on the available resources and competition. These two factors serve as foundations for settlement, development and dispersion patterns of certain species.

Protected Natural Areas

The subject of the paper is protected natural areas of the world and their regional differences. According to the IUCN, a protected natural area is “a clearly defined geographical space, recognized, dedicated and managed, through legal or other effective means, to achieve the long term conservation of nature with associated ecosystem services and cultural values”. States differ in their interpretations of the above definition. Very often, some of the sites that are protected areas in one country may not necessarily be considered protected in another country. In defining and management of protected areas, some countries have adapted their laws to international guidelines, while in other countries the legislation differs significantly from these guidelines. Therefore, the research aims to show regional differences in the identification and management process as well as in the total surface area and abundance of protected natural areas at the world level.

Sustainable tourismization is a favorable development mode and pathway for the promotion of the coordinated development of the economy, society, and ecology. Based on the connotations of tourismization, a comprehensive evaluation index system of sustainable tourismization was constructed. This system consists of three dimensions: consumption tourismization, spatial tourismization, and industrial tourismization. The level, spatial, and temporal distribution characteristics, and differences in sustainable tourismization among China’s provinces from 2009 to 2018 were measured and analyzed using the improved entropy method, the Theil index, a spatial autocorrelation analysis, and other methods. It was found that the level of provincial sustainable tourismization in China has steadily increased over time, with the eastern region taking the lead. The overall differences and inter-regional differences in terms of the provincial sustainable tourismization level have generally decreased year-by-year. The intraregional differences within the eastern region were found to be the largest, and the rate of contribution of inter-regional differences to overall differences was shown to decrease gradually, while the rate of contribution of intraregional differences within the western region increased gradually. A positive spatial correlation in the provincial sustainable tourismization level was identified, and the spatial agglomeration effect showed an increasing trend. The spatial dependence was mainly characterized by “high–high” (HH) agglomeration, showing a ladder difference of “higher in the east and lower in the west”. The results of this study were used to identify where emphasis should be placed in terms of policy and strategy.
