The University of Córdoba committed to regional development proposes conceptual and methodological guidelines to advance subregionalization processes in order to reduce territorial imbalances, applicable to the solution of socio-spatial and economic problems that affect the territorial entities of the country. In compliance with its policies, the University of Córdoba has been linked to the subregionalization process of the Department of Atlántico, in such a way that it responds to the need to propose models of integral and orderly development with a prospective vision, which allows local administrators develop projects that generate departmental impact and that lead to the integration of the municipalities that comprise it.

Este libro está dirigido a Corporaciones Autónomas Regionales (CARs) y a las entidades territoriales presentes en Colombia, debido a la necesidad de generar una síntesis acerca de los contenidos jurídicos y normativos en materia de determinantes ambientales para el ordenamiento territorial de los municipios que han registrado en los últimos años un notable avance en este tema. Para la mayoría de los lectores acaso sea preciso señalar que en la actualidad las determinantes ambientales para el ordenamiento territorial municipal en Colombia ya no aparecen limitadas al estudio y aplicación de las leyes 2da de 1959; 128 de 1994, 99 de 1993; 388 de 1997, del Código Nacional de los Recursos Naturales de 1974, de modo que han surgido nuevas disposiciones reglamentarias, dirigidas desde diferentes enfoques de la intervención del territorio, que ameritan ser incorporadas en el ordenamiento territorial, tales como: los Decretos 097 de 2006, 3600 de 2007; 4066 de 2008, 2372 de 2010, el Reglamento Técnico del sector de Agua Potable y Saneamiento Básico RAS 2000, entre otras reglamentaciones.

There is no doubt that Colombia can be considered as one of the sites with the highest concentration of biodiversity in the world, which is based on the presence of a significant proportion of the world's fauna, estimated exceeds 1,900 bird species (Donegan et al., 2012), 771 amphibian species (Lynch et al., 1997), 492 species of mammals (Solari et al., 2013), more than 506 reptile species (Chaves and Santamaría, 2006), about 3,200 species of fish (Alvarado and Gutiérrez, 2002) and about 1,900 marine species (Campos et al., 2003). One of the best studied groups are insects, with 3,019 species known of diurnal butterflies (Andrade, 2001) and 4,800 species of hymenoptera (Fernández, 2000). In the marine part, it is estimated that 970 have been registered Crustacean species, 2,200 molluscs, 150 corals and 290 echinoderms (Quiros and Campos, 2013), without the great diversity of other invertebrates.
