Fragmentation of the Chaco Forest in eastern Tucumán (Argentina): territorial transformations between 1990 and 2025
Between 1990 and 2025, the departments located in eastern Tucumán underwent profound territorial transformations associated with the expansion of the agricultural frontier. The spread of soybean and sugarcane monocultures led to the loss of more than 94.000 hectares of native forest, affecting biodi...

Entre 1990 y 2025, los departamentos del este de Tucumán experimentaron profundas transformaciones territoriales asociadas al avance de la frontera agropecuaria. La expansión del monocultivo de soja y caña de azúcar impulsó la pérdida de más de 94.000 hectáreas de bosque nativo, afectando la biodiversidad, la estructura del paisaje y las condiciones de vida locales. A partir del análisis multitemporal de imágenes Landsat, bases socioeconómicas y observaciones de campo, se evaluaron los cambios de uso del suelo y la fragmentación del bosque chaqueño. Los resultados evidencian una reducción sostenida de la cobertura natural. El estudio integra enfoques geográficos, ecológicos y territoriales para comprender la dinámica del este tucumano.
