English to Spanish Other Botany
Agradezco de antemano su ayuda.

Stands of Scirpus californicus and Juncus arcticus border many large lakes and ponds, such as at Cocañes 2 (Figure 4-W-13A).

tands of Carex crinalis occupy mud pools at Cocañes 2 (Figure 4-W-13B), as well as in pools at WBV, Perol and other acidic wetlands. The most common dominant sedge is Carex pichinchensis (Figure 4-W-13C), but C. bonplandii, C. hebetate, C. praegracilis, C. camptoglochin, Uncinia hamata, and Eleocharis albibracteata can also be dominant.

traductorchile Jul 9, 2009:
According to definition the size isn't important, what's important is that it is manageable as a unit. It can be a smallholder with a very small yielding plot, or a large estate formed by various stands.
Bubo Coroman (X) Jul 9, 2009:
I agree with comment about "rodal" ... however, there are other factors to bear in mind, e.g. (a) did the trees grow naturally, as in a woodland, or are they ornamental (i.e. they were planted)? And how many trees are there in total? To me, a "stand" can be a very small number of trees.
traductorchile Jul 9, 2009:
The original text is technical Maybe in gardening you would use “hilera de árboles”, but technically the translation used at an academic and professional level is “Rodal”

Noni Gilbert Riley Jul 9, 2009:
Función de una hilera de árboles En la agricultura se ha utilizado siempre este tipo de plantación para proteger contra el viento, y lo mismo es aplicable en la jardinería - también protege a otras plantas más sensibles de heladas/exceso de sol.

Peer comment(s):
agree hedapen : sí, stand of trees es una hilera de árboles, y en la frase sería que una hilera de totora (S. californicus, típica de esteros y pantanos de Sudamérica) y de Juncus arcticus bordea los lagos y pantanos.

muchas gracias Libe, ¡que tengas un buen día! :-) Deborah
agree Noni Gilbert Riley : Yes, I've always rather like this term! In more agricultural context, very important as windbreaks.

English term (edited): stands

juncales de Scirpus californicus y Juncus arcticus y comunidades de Carex crinalis.

Scirpus californicus como Juncus arcticus son especies diferentes de JUNCOS; y por lo tanto "stands" de esas hierbas no son otra cosa que JUNCALES. Podés poner entonces "Juncales de Scirpus californicus y Juncus arcticus" (recordando que los nombres científicos van en bastardillas).
En cuanto a Carex crinalis, es un pasto, o sea que correspondería poner "pastizales (o "comunidades" o "pajonales") de Carex crinalis.

Donde dice "Scirpus californicus como Juncus arcticus" debe decir "Scirpus californicus y Juncus arcticus". Sorry.

El Scirpus californicus (variedad “tatora”) no es otro que la totora, que los uros del Lago Titicaca, que la llaman “ullu”, utilizan como alimento (“saq’a” y “chhullu”) y con la que construyen sus embarcaciones.
En Perú hay unas 25 especies registradas del género Carex (sólo dos o tres en la Argentina, donde reciben el nombre de coirón o coironcito). Su nombre común en Perú es pijipíng (distribuida en la Amazonia baja y alta),
Con lo dicho, queda claro que de ninguna manera ninguna de estas especies es un árbol.
