• Proporcionar a aplicação da água na quantidade e no momento ideal para o plantio, através da identificação do teor de umidade em sua região radicular durante a fotossíntese. De tal forma que só haja consumo de água quando o plantio realmente necessitar. E que este seja interrompido quando a capacidade do solo tenha sido alcançada, com ausência de luminosidade, ou com a ocorrência de chuvas. Impedindo à exaustão e o déficit hídrico das raízes e a perda de água que ocorre quando se rega no período em que não existem irradiações solares.
| Translation - Spanish Objetivo ecológico:
• Proveer agua en la cantidad requerida y en el momento preciso a las plantas, al identificar la cantidad de humedad de sus raíces, durante el proceso de fotosíntesis. De esta manera, se consumirá el agua cuando la planta realmente la necesite. La irrigación se debe interrumpir cuando se haya alcanzado la capacidad del suelo si no hay luz o cuando comience a llover, evitando así el agotamiento y falta de agua en las raíces de la planta y su pérdida al regarlas cuando no hay luz solar.

| Spanish to English: Amazon Region Basin Detailed field: Environment & Ecology | Source text - Spanish Los países de la Cuenca Amazónica presentan condiciones de inequidad y desigual distribución de la riqueza. La región es reconocida como una de las áreas más ricas de la tierra por su diversidad biológica (6 de los 8 países amazónicos son considerados megadiversos), sus recursos minerales (importantes fuentes de hierro, oro y estaño), sus recursos hídricos (alberga el mayor sistema fluvial y la mayor reserva de agua del planeta) y sus recursos forestales (representa el 70% de los bosques tropicales del mundo). A pesar de esta riqueza, se estima que alrededor de 292 millones de personas habitan los ocho países y la mayor parte de esta población vive en condiciones de marginalidad, carece de medios de comunicación social e infraestructura básica (por ejemplo, agua segura, electricidad, telecomunicaciones), no tiene acceso a servicios de salud, educación, oportunidades de empleo y generación de renta. | Translation - English The countries of the Amazon Region Basin have inequitable conditions and unequal wealth distribution. The region is renowned as one of the planet’s richest areas due to its biological diversity (6 of the 8 Amazon Region countries are considered megadiverse), its mineral resources (important sources of iron, gold, and tin), its hydric resources (it has the largest river system and the largest water reservoir of the plant), and its forest resources (it has 70% of the tropical forests of the world). In spite of this wealth, an estimated 292 million people inhabit these eight countries and most of them live in conditions of poverty, do not have access to social communication media and basic infrastructure (i.e. potable water, electricity, and telecommunications), and do not have access to health care, education, employment and income generating opportunities. | More Less | | Business, Computer software and computer science, Math, Medicine, Otros temas, Science Engl > Spanish | | Other - Certificate English > Spanish Translations - University of Toronto and Professional Translation Certificate, SCPS, NYU | | Years of translation experience: 16.
