Title A name given to the resource AS QUEBRADAS DEL PARQUE NACIONAL NATURAL GORGONA DENTRO DEL CONTEXTO GLOBAL: INTRODUCCIÓN AL NÚMERO ESPECIAL THE STREAMS OF GORGONA NATURAL NATIONAL PARK WITHIN THE GLObAL CONTEXT: AN INTRODUCTION TO THE SPECIAL ISSUE Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Alonso Ramírez, Juan F. Blanco, Frederick N. Scatena Description An account of the resource This paper highlights the importance of islands for proposing and testing hypotheses in stream ecology, and therefore, advocates for implementing reference studies in Gorgona Island (Colombian Pacific). It firstly summarizes past ecological studies in streams in Gorgona Island and outlines a series of papers resulting from a recent survey. These papers report that Gorgona Island exhibits a maritime climate, a tropical rainforest cover, and a basaltic and intrusive lithology, all typical features of islands elsewhere. They also describe that despite of the insular effect on stream biota, the proximity (< 50 km) of the island to the Pacific coast of Colombia facilitated dispersal of many faunal and floristic components from the continent, thus providing a unique opportunity for studying coastal streams in the Biogeographic Chocó. Finally, the status of Gorgona Island as a natural park established in 1984, and a relatively well known history of land uses, may further contribute to support search programs with long-term and large-scale goals.Este artículo resalta la importancia de las islas para proponer y someter a prueba hipótesis en ecología lótica y, por lo tanto, aboga por la implementación de estudios de referencia en la Isla Gorgona (Pacífico colombiano). Primero se resumen los estudios pasados realizados en las quebradas de la isla y se bosquejan los artículos que hacen parte de éste número especial, que son el resultado de una expedición reciente. Estos artículos informan que la Isla Gorgona posee un clima marítimo, una cobertura de bosque lluvioso tropical y una litología basáltica e intrusiva, características que también son típicas de otras islas. Ellos también describen que a pesar del ''efecto isla'' en la biota lótica, la proximidad (< 50 km) de la Isla a la costa Pacífica colombiana ha facilitado la dispersión de muchos componentes faunísticos y florísticos desde el continente, y por lo tanto provee una oportunidad única para estudiar las quebradas costeras en el Chocó Biogeográfico. Finalmente, la condición de parque natural establecido en 1984 y la relativamente bien conocida historia de usos pueden ayudar a apoyar programas de investigación con objetivos a largo plazo y gran escala.
