Espeletia schultii
They are only speaking of the moor symbolic in high mountains and rocky escarpments of lava sometimes other frailejones sandstone present in the mist their black lagoons imensas still water their great paramo scenarios Biodiversity and ecology allows us to understand how they interact different factors forming hydrologic scenarios
The moors are high mountain ecosystems neotropical distributed from Costa Rica to the north of Peru at altitudes generalmete 2,800 and 4000 meters distributed discontinuously between 11 º N and 8 ° S with a climate cold and wet with sudden climatic changes that allow growth and development plants is slow when it comes to explaining the origin of the fauna in the moors is a wealth of biodiversity of large ecosystem incomparabel

I want to share with you all that soon will Santurbán paramo declared a natural park. a great victory for the conservation of species and water sources.
The Santurbán moor, a hidden paradise in the mountaintops Santandereanas, which offers a wide variety of biodiversity, which has 47 lakes, more than 457 species of plants, over 17 species between amphibians and reptiles, over 201 species wild birds and has more than 58 species of mammals. It is a sanctuary that covers a vast expanse of land enigmatic, which for hikers and nature lovers is like finding a portal to an unknown dimension, but fills many natural attractions

Conservation of biodiversity in the roof of the Andes
Conservación de la biodiversidad en el techo de los Andes::
El tema de los incendios y el impacto que tienen sobre los paisajes paramunos, ya que estos son considerados como uno de los agentes más impactantes y agresivos en procesos de degradación, pérdida de diversidad y disminución de los servicios ecosistémicos que recibimos de los páramos.
Hola harsuame! La "Favorite" función de Project Noah se va a utilizar SOLO una vez por cada spotting que usted elija a gustar. Le pedimos amablemente pero con firmeza no favorecer de forma repetida la misma spotting. Gracias por su comprensión.
Que hermoso paisaje muy bello y la planta del frailejon indicador de vida ...interesante páramo

by the water of life and earth....no to mining ....every day is Earth Day
recuerdos de los andes hermosos.. de Merida Venezuela.
Saludos
Nice picture!!
beautifull my homeland
The biological richness that houses the moor is unique because most of its species have evolved complex adaptations to live under extreme climatic conditions of this ecosystem mechanisms to hold water against the wind and maintain a proper temperature make the existence of life in the high altitudes where they located the moors which are the main source of non-renewable water resource.
no to mining..
Amazing ,beautiful place,congratulations Harsuame
