About: Tierra fría

An Entity of Type: place, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

In Latin America, tierra fría (Spanish for cold land) are mountain locations where high elevation results in a markedly cooler climate than that encountered in the lowlands at a comparable latitude. The combination of low latitude and high altitude — typically between approximately 2,000 m (about 6,500 ft) and 3,500 m (about 11,500 ft)in locations within 10° of the equator — produces a climate that falls into the same category as many oceanic climates found along the west coasts of the continents within the temperate zones — mild temperatures all year round, with monthly averages ranging from about 10°C (50°F) in the coldest months to about 18°C (64.4°F) in the warmest months (at places further poleward the range of altitudes where this climate exists becomes progressively lower).

  • In Latin America, tierra fría (Spanish for cold land) are mountain locations where high elevation results in a markedly cooler climate than that encountered in the lowlands at a comparable latitude. The combination of low latitude and high altitude — typically between approximately 2,000 m (about 6,500 ft) and 3,500 m (about 11,500 ft)in locations within 10° of the equator — produces a climate that falls into the same category as many oceanic climates found along the west coasts of the continents within the temperate zones — mild temperatures all year round, with monthly averages ranging from about 10°C (50°F) in the coldest months to about 18°C (64.4°F) in the warmest months (at places further poleward the range of altitudes where this climate exists becomes progressively lower). Common crops grown in the tierra fría are potatoes, wheat, barley, oats, corn, and rye. Beyond the tierra fría is a region known as the suni, puna, or páramos; near the Equator this encompasses places with altitudes of between roughly 3,500 m (11,500 ft) and 4,500 m (15,000 ft), representing the treeline and the snow line respectively. Vegetation here resembles that found in the tundra of the polar regions. Still higher is the tierra nevada, where permanent snow and ice prevail. The Peruvian geographer Javier Pulgar Vidal (Altitudinal zonation) used following altitudes: 2,300 m (end of the Cloud forest or Yunga fluvial), 3,500 m (Treeline) and 4,800 m (Puna end). Some of Latin America's largest cities are found in the tierra fria, most notably Bogotá, Colombia, altitude 2,640 m, Mexico City, Mexico, altitude 2,240 m and Quito, Ecuador, altitude 2,850 m; all three cities are also the capitals of their respective countries. Agriculture in the region resembles that which is conducted in valley areas in the temperate zones, featuring such crops as barley and potatoes. (en)
  • Na América Latina, tierra fría (espanhol para terra fria) são locais montanhosos onde a alta altitude resulta em um clima notavelmente mais frio do que aquele encontrado nas terras baixas em uma latitude comparável. A combinação de baixa latitude e alta altitude — normalmente entre aproximadamente 2.000 m e 3.500 m em locais dentro de 10° do equador — produz um clima que se enquadra na mesma categoria de muitos climas oceânicos encontrados ao longo da costa oeste dos continentes dentro do zonas temperadas — temperaturas amenas durante todo o ano, com médias mensais variando de cerca de 10 °C nos meses mais frios a cerca de 18 °C nos meses mais quentes (em lugares mais austrais na faixa de altitudes onde este clima existe, as temperaturas tornam-se progressivamente mais baixas). As culturas comuns cultivadas na tierra fría são batata, trigo, cevada, aveia, milho e centeio. Além da tierra fría, fica uma região conhecida como suni, puna ou páramos; perto do equador, abrangendo lugares com altitudes entre cerca de 3.500 m e 4.500 m, representando a linha de árvores e a linha da neve, respectivamente. A vegetação aqui se assemelha à encontrada na tundra das regiões polares. Ainda mais alta é a tierra nevada, onde predominam neve e gelo permanentes. O geógrafo peruano Javier Pulgar Vidal, com o seu zoneamento altitudinal, usou as seguintes altitudes: 2.300 m (extremidade da floresta nebulosa ou fluvial Yunga), 3.500 m (linha de árvores) e 4.800 m (extremidade de Puna). Algumas das maiores cidades da América Latina encontram-se na tierra fria, principalmente Bogotá, Colômbia (altitude 2.640 m), Cidade do México, México (altitude 2.240 m), Quito, Equador (altitude 2.850 m); todas as três cidades são também as capitais de seus respectivos países. A agricultura na região assemelha-se à que é conduzida nas áreas dos vales das zonas temperadas, com culturas como cevada e batata . (pt)
