description The effect of land use on the structural diversity of Tamaulipan thornscrub in northeastern Mexico was examined. The objective was to determine whether land use modified diversity, ecological indicators, structural and vertical distribution of trees and shrubs. The analysis was performed by comparing three ecosystems with different land use history: extensive cattle grazing, traditional agriculture and clear cutting with 21 year of abandonment. The methodology used was a combination of rectangular sites and a sampling analysis called "structural group of four trees". Results showed differences in diversity, ecological indicators, vertical distribution and dimensional structure.

The objective was to determine whether land use modified diversity, ecological indicators, structural and vertical distribution of trees and shrubs. The analysis was performed by comparing three ecosystems with different land use history: extensive cattle grazing, traditional agriculture and clear cutting with 21 year of abandonment.

El presente estudio analiza el efecto del uso del suelo en la diversidad estructural del matorral espinoso tamaulipeco en el noreste de México. El objetivo fue determinar la modificación de la diversidad, indicadores ecológicos, estructura dimensional y la distribución vertical de las especies arbóreas y arbustivas debido al cambio de uso del suelo. El análisis se realizó mediante la comparación de tres áreas con distinto historial de uso: ganadería extensiva, agricultura tradicional y matarrasa, con un abandono de 21 años. La metodología propuesta fue la combinación de sitios rectangulares y el análisis muestral denominado “grupo estructural de los cuatro árboles”. El análisis estructural comparativo mostró evidencias significativas que indican que el cambio de uso del suelo trae como consecuencia que las áreas presenten diferente diversidad, indicadores ecológicos, distribución vertical y estructura dimensional.
