Cryogenic geoforms, geological heritage in the Campo de los Alisos Na- tional Park, Tucumán, Argentina: Acta geológica lilloana 22 (1-2): 2010

The record preserved in geological material and in the current landscape is unique and most of it is extremely fragile. Its exploitation and the important climatic variations that occur at a global scale in many cases have a negative effect on its good conservation. A record which is lost can never be recovered, given that it is non-renewable and irretrievable, hence the urgent of the need to understand and protect it. The Campo de los Alisos National Park, Sierra de Aconquija, Tucumán, has a varied geological heritage, offering numerous tourist attractions, natural resources and landscapes not yet used in a sustainable way. We present a preliminary inventory of geological interest sites related to Quaternary cryoforms in the region around the La Ciudacita ruins in order to link this geological heritage with educational aims and economic use. The aim is to increase consciousness about the value of this natural area and the same time the wish to enhance the environmental protection of the geological interest sites.

El registro preservado en los materiales geológicos y en el paisaje actual es único y extremadamente frágil. Su explotación y los cambios climáticos ocurridos a escala global han tenido en muchos casos un efecto negativo sobre su conservación. Un registro geológico perdido nunca más puede ser recuperado, de aquí la necesidad urgente de conocerlo y protegerlo. En las altas cumbres de la Sierra de Aconquija, el Parque Nacional Campo de los Alisos posee una gran geodiversidad, que repercute en un rico y variado patrimonio geológico con múltiples recursos turísticos y paisajísticos aún no aprovechados de manera sustentable. En este trabajo se presenta un inventario preliminar de los puntos de interés geológico (PIG) relacionados con las criogeoformas cuaternarias en la región de las ruinas de La Ciudacita, importante exponente del patrimonio arqueológico y cultural del parque, con el objeto de conjugar con la divulgación del patrimonio geológico, la valoración y cuidado del medio natural y la preservación de los PIG.
