作者分析了多米尼加共和国加尔德西亚水电站分水岭的土壤保持项目，以解释欠发达国家环境问题背后的人类现实，并帮助确定应对这些问题的成功战略的要素。他们之所以选择这一具体案例研究，是因为许多最不发达国家依靠水资源开发来增加国内发电量，并通过减少侵蚀造成的泥沙淤积来扩大农业。他们研究的政策含义集中在两个问题上：缺乏广泛采用的土壤保护做法，以及政府可以用来鼓励变化的政策工具。参考文献24篇，表5篇。
The authors analyze a soil conservation project for the watershed of Caldesia hydroelectric dam in the Dominican Republic in order to explain the human realities that underlie environmental problems in the less developed countries (LDCs) and to help identify elements of successful strategies for coping with those problems. They chose this particular case study because many LDCs are counting on water resource development to increase domestic power generation and to expand agriculture by reducing sedimentation from erosion. The policy implications of their study focus on two issues: the lack of widespread adoption of soil-conserving practices and the policy tools which government can use to encourage change. 24 references, 5 tables.
