Abstract

The International Arid Lands Consortium (IALC) was established in 1990 to promote research, education, and training activities related to the development, management, and reclamation of arid and semiarid lands worldwide. Building on a decade of experience, the IALC continues to increase the knowledge base for managers by funding research, development, and demonstration projects and special initiatives. Results from these scientific and technical efforts enhance management of arid and semiarid ecosystems for sustainable use within the framework of maintaining the integrity of the ecological processes. Contributions of the IALC to stewardship of the natural resources in the Madrean Archipelago are presented in this paper.
