OF THE THESIS LAND USE OF RIPARIAN ZONES IN TWO COMMUNITIES IN THE PALCAZU BASIN, CENTRAL ANDEAN AMAZON, PERU by Rosa E. Cossio-Solano Florida International University, 2001 Miami, Florida Professor Michael McClain, Major Professor The purpose of this study was to compare outcomes in forms of riparian zone land use between a native and a colonist community of the Palcazu basin in Peru. Data were gathered through a survey of 79 settler households and an ethnographic study. The results showed that riparian zones are highly valued for the conservation of fertile lowland soils by both communities. Statistical tests showed that riparian land use practices (including non-riparian land use) in both communities are similar; only significant differences were found in the percentage of protection fringe forested, in the area of riparian zone under use and in the importance o f riparian zones for the householders. Contextual circumstances in both communities are similar and markets are distant. My research also suggests that there is nothing inherent in the culture of either Yanesha peoples or colonists that leads them to open more or less agricultural land.
