Invasive species, socio-environmental management, control strategies, reservoirs in Latin America, community participationAbstract
The review study addresses issues associated with invasive species in dams or reservoirs in Latin America and Ecuador. Control strategies and public policies designed to manage and mitigate the spread of these invasive aquatic plants are examined. The study was based on a documentary review that compiled recent information on the management of socio-environmental projects for invasive species control globally, with a focus on Latin America. Trends and patterns were sought regarding control strategies used in the region, using relevant bibliographic references obtained from the "SCOPUS" and "Google Scholar" digital platforms. Search criteria included a time period of the last 5 years (2019-2023) and focused on specific study areas. The regional context of invasive species management in reservoirs is analyzed, highlighting the importance of these water bodies in Latin America, especially in Ecuador. Specific issues presented in reservoirs of the region are addressed, and strategies for controlling invasive species are explored, along with the development of policies and regulations for reservoir restoration and conservation. The participation of communities and other relevant actors is highlighted, as well as monitoring and evaluation methods for projects, including relevant socio-environmental indicators. These results offer a comprehensive view of socio-environmental management and strategies for controlling invasive species in reservoirs, with significant implications for water resource conservation in the region, and raise reflections on future scenarios in the region. The analysis provides a deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities associated with managing invasive species in the Poza Honda reservoir as a case study and offers valuable insights for the development of effective policies and control strategies in similar contexts.
