This report reflects the efforts of the Office of the Orinoco-Apure Project to define an environmental policy based research delineating priority areas of research and identification of potential environmental impacts of the project.

Report for the Project Orinoco - Apure. This report discusses information on the Orinoco river delta and other deltaic tropical systems.

This is the activity report for the PAN-EARTH Project Case Study Venezuela from October 1988 to March 1990.

This report discusses the Ecological Effects Assessment of Climatic changes in Venezuela Workshop, organized by the PAN-EARTH Project and the Centre for Ecology of the Venezuelan Institute for Scientific Research (IVIC). The main objective was the evaluation of the effects of climate changes on the main ecosystems in Venezuela using ecological models.

Report on a Modeling Crop and Climate Change workshop. The objectives of the workshop were: 1) train Venezuelan scientists in the use of agricultural models IBSNAT program (International Benchmark Sites Network for Agrotechnology Transfer), including discussions about their applicability and the acquisition of knowledge about the data needed for proper simulation and validation, 2) Calibrate the model of maize (CERES) for different cultivars and different regions of Venezuela using data from soil and climate corresponding to various tests, 3) Carry out model simulations under various climate scenarios to assess their potential effects on crops, 4) To strengthen the cooperation between users of IBSNAT models to make necessary tests to get a better database application thus facilitating validation and calibration of these models, and 5) To establish plans for future agricultural and meteorological research in the context of global climate change.
