Contributions from limnology to reservoir management

Abstract: ResumenEl presente trabajo describe algunas aportaciones de la limnología a la gestión de embalses a partir de la revisión de la bibliografía y de la experiencia de los autores. Después de explicar los principales retos a los que se enfrentan los gestores de embalses, se dan ejemplos de medidas a aplicar, destacando la importancia de tener en cuenta las diferentes escalas de gestión tanto temporales (escala plurianual, anual, diaria) como espaciales (cuenca, tramo fluvial, embalse o cadena de embalses). Tambié… Show more

“…According to Pratts et al [75], one of the main problems that affect lakes and reservoirs is the eutrophication. It induces undesirable ecological consequences for the water bodies [1,3], such as excessive phytoplankton and macrophyte growth.…”

“…La limnología tiene un importante y creciente papel en la toma de decisiones en relación a la gestión del agua embalsada (Prats et al, 2014). Dada la necesidad de profundizar en el conocimiento limnológico de la marisma, estudiar el balance térmico de la misma y comprender los procesos de intercambio de calor que ocurren en ella resulta de interés por diversas razones.…”

“…Storage loss may impair the reservoir finality, including water supply, hydropower, flood control, and recreational uses. Additionally, there are impacts of reservoir sediment retention on water quality, such as the reduction of sediment load downstream and an increase of water turbidity and oxygen demand (Prats Rodríguez et al, ). Moreover, the accumulation of deposits in deltaic form in the reservoir tail can produce several adverse effects, including upstream flooding, impaired navigation, and impingement on wildlife and their habitat (Kostic & Parker, ).…”
