Evidence mechanisms that assemble communities through the altitudinal gradient Determine the relationship between the variation of strategies for acquisition and use of resources of plant species and the functioning of ecosystems (nutrient cycling and primary productivity) through the altitudinal gradient. Determine the relationship between the variation of the biotic diversity of soils and the functioning of ecosystems (nutrient cycling and primary productivity) through the altitudinal gradient. Characterize the sound of the faina community in the gradient between the high Andean forest and the moor on a multi-temporal scale. Know which anthropic factors are the most outstanding in the sampling points and which of these may be negatively affecting animal communication, based on the acoustic information of the place

Six altitudinal strips were established, between 3200 and 3700 masl with intervals of 100 m elevation, making 5 replicas per altitudinal range. In the forest and transition features, plots of 10 * 20m (200 m2) were established; in the páramo plots of 5 * 5m (25 m2) were established. Population sizes and trends, Participant choice based on scheme guidance
