Determinar las características y comportamientos diferenciados de los procesos de ocupación del suelo y consolidación urbana en frentes de playa, resulta un antecedente necesario a la concepción de acciones de intervención y ordenamiento territorial en espacios litorales. El presente artículo, tiene como objetivo caracterizar las tipologías de frentes de playa asumidas: 1) frente de playa urbano; 2) frente de playa de asentamiento y 3) frente de playa asociado a complejo turístico. Para ello se estructuró un procedimiento de caracterización a partir de 16 variables de análisis agrupadas en 4 categorías, que permiten identificar las similitudes y divergencias que manifiestan los componentes del medio físico construido en cada tipología. El procedimiento fue validado en tres frentes de playas del municipio Guamá de la provincia Santiago de Cuba, Cuba. La principal conclusión indica que las variables de mayor diferenciación entre las tipologías identificadas son los relacionados con la categoría Estructuración Funcional.

Acordos celebrados entre instituições de ensino e fomento à pesquisa entre Brasil e Cuba têm aproximado pesquisadores para debater assuntos relacionados à capacitação de comunidades ao enfrentamento de mudanças ambientais, com destaque àquelas relacionadas aos eventos meteorológicos extremos. Este artigo apresenta uma discussão sobre sustentabilidade dos meios de vida e sugere estratégias para reduzir a vulnerabilidade socioambiental em duas comunidades, uma localizada na Região Norte do Brasil e a outra, na porção Sul-Oriental de Cuba, com base em indicadores qualitativos. Realizou-se revisão bibliográfica e documental, bem como observações nas áreas de estudo. Aplicou-se a Matriz Fortaleza, Oportunidades, Fraquezas e Ameaças (SWOT, em inglês), para obter informações de base local, as quais, após agrupadas nas dimensões do Capital, permitiram a construção de sete indicadores, que revelaram baixa sustentabilidade das comunidades pesquisadas. Com base nos resultados, ressalta-se a importância da ampliação de projetos interinstitucionais e a implementação de políticas públicas eficientes ao fortalecimento dessas comunidades.

Human activities often drive landscape degradation and the associated loss of value. This paper describes a method that, by integrating multiple factors, characterize landscape value to establish relevant and effective management practices. The new integrated method for landscape assessment (IMLA) is a four-step model that includes: (i) establishment of a general theoretical basis for sustainability relevant metrics; (ii) characterization of the landscape; (iii) landscape valuation; (iv) recommendations for landscape value management. Each step includes different interactive components of analysis. The new IMLA considers the potential range of values associated with each landscape unit and facilitates sustainable landscape management. The method is systematic and includes both inductive and deductive reasoning. Its articulation is represented in the conjunction and overlapping of all factors and variables considered. IMLA was tested in Santiago de Cuba Bay (Cuba) and used to determine five landscape scopes, eight first-order landscape units and 29 s-order units. It proved to be a useful tool to establish landscape values and sound management strategies. Application of IMLA in Cuba will help local authorities institute land-use plans and to establish decision-making processes that include valuation of cultural landscapes.

This article uses the category of spatial justice as an analytical variable to explore the coastal planning of Cuba and Brazil, in the face of the challenge of climate change. The research was conducted using a qualitative methodology, applying the technique of content analysis to instruments of physical planning, based on spatial justice indicators provided in the study. These included territorial boundaries, uses of coastal space, environmental conflicts, public participation, urban insecurity, climate migration, and social exclusion, which enabled integration of coastal planning elements in the dimensions of space, policies, and tensions in different socio-economic contexts. New variables are added to the concept of spatial justice and it is shown that this constitutes an analytical category, which, expressed through coastal planning, puts both countries in better conditions to face the impacts of climate change.

This article aims to determine the level of social perception of coastal risk (SPCR) of the population in the face of hurricanes in the southeastern region of Cuba. Semi-structured interviews to inhabitants of the coastal municipalities’ object of study were carried out, with the purpose of collecting data for assessing the following aspects: SPCR when facing hurricanes; causes leading to High, Medium or Low SPCR; sources of information; levels of knowledge about coastal legal issues; levels of responsibility concerning risk management actions, and measures suggested to increase SPCR in the case of hurricanes. A group of 568 people were interviewed. Types of structural, non-structural and ecological vulnerabilities after the impact of hurricanes were also identified, as well as the socio-economic, socio-psychological, communicational, organizational, natural and socio-political factors that influenced their perception of risk. The results showed medium and low levels of SPCR in the population studied. The research concludes with the proposal of some coastal protection actions to be considered in the Plan to Face Climate Change in the Republic of Cuba.
