Analysis of Telecouplings Associated with the Productive Landscape of Cajón de Pérez Zeledón, Costa Rica (1997–2021)

In sustainability science, increasing attention has been given to the study of distant interactions in socio-ecological systems.

The concept of telecoupling aims to represent such relationships and multi-scalar nature. This article analyzes three telecoupling processes linked to transformations in the productive landscape of Cajón district, Costa Rica, characterized by its dependence on agricultural activities and its buffering role for protected areas. A multitemporal analysis of satellite imagery was applied, complemented by the systematic application of the telecoupling framework. Significant landscape change was identified related to the pineapple telecoupling. The telecoupling associated with coffee remains, although weakened by climate-related and market dynamics. An important change was also observed in relation to sugarcane cultivation, though it reflects a more domestic form of telecoupling.

En las ciencias de la sostenibilidad ha cobrado creciente atención el estudio de interacciones distantes en sistemas socioecológicos. El concepto de teleacoplamiento busca representar estas relaciones y su multiescalaridad. Este artículo analiza tres procesos de teleacoplamiento vinculados a transformaciones en el paisaje productivo del distrito Cajón, Costa Rica, caracterizado por su dependencia de actividades agropecuarias y su rol de amortiguamiento de áreas protegidas. Se aplicó un análisis multitemporal de imágenes satelitales, complementado con la aplicación sistemática del marco de los teleacoplamientos. Se identificó un cambio significativo en el paisaje asociado al teleacoplamiento de piña. El teleacoplamiento del café continúa vigente, aunque debilitado por factores climáticos y de mercado. También hubo un cambio importante relacionado con la caña de azúcar, de carácter más doméstico. Esta investigación representa una de las primeras aplicaciones explícitas del marco de los teleacoplamientos en Costa Rica y ayuda a comprender transformaciones rurales para la planificación territorial.
