Article Synopsis
  • An experiment was conducted in San Luis Potosí, Mexico, to study the effects of increased temperatures on the physiological, morphological, and yield parameters of various crops, comparing warmer and cooler climates.
  • The experiment used open-top chambers to induce heat and found that while warming improved growth and development, it significantly delayed yield outcomes, with squash being the most negatively affected and beans benefiting the most.
  • The findings indicated that warming impacted photosynthetic efficiency and gas exchange differently across crops, leading to varied physiological responses and overall effects on crop systems.

This article analyzes the relationship between the configuration and spatial reorganization of land-use and land-cover in the Pujal-Coy project area, Huasteca Potosina region, eastern San Luis Potosí, Mexico, as well as the relationship between these changes and the environmental conditions prevailing in the area. Land-use and land-cover changes were determined through the analysis and interpretation of satellite images from different dates. The changes identified in the different study periods were correlated with the prevailing physical factors.
