Impactos de la contaminación por basura marina en el ecosistema de manglar de la Ciénaga Grande de Santa Marta, Caribe colombiano

Abstract: La basura en el mar está generando impactos negativos en los ecosistemas marinos y comunidades humanas, razón por la cual se considera un problema relevante cuya solución ha sido incluida como meta dentro del Objetivo de desarrollo sostenible n.o 14. El propósito de este estudio fue identificar y valorar los impactos negativos de la contaminación por basura marina en el ecosistema de manglar de la Ciénaga Grande de Santa Marta (CGSM), Caribe colombiano. Los impactos se identificaron mediante observación in sit… Show more

“…The impacts will likely vary both with the nature of the debris, the amounts involved and the mangrove land/seascape context [59]. In certain landward areas, the intensity, extension, lack of reversibility and degree of accumulation will necessary have direct impacts on all aspects of the ecosystem [60]. Second, important discharges of untreated domestic wastewater arrive along certain portions of the villages, impacting all aspects of the ecosystem including tree and invertebrate physiology and community structure [61][62][63].…”

“…The high density of ML in mangrove stands has collateral effects on the ecosystem and its biota and is also a potential risk for the health and physical integrity of inhabitants and visitors (Somerville et al, 2003;Garcés-Ordóñez and Bayona, 2019;Rangel-Buitrago et al, 2019a, 2019b. Initiatives led by government entities, fishermen´s associations, and volunteers to remove litter and plant mangroves in the CM may potentially expose participants to the risk of sharp and toxic litter items such as metal, glass, and medicine containers.…”

“…The mangrove is a fragile ecosystem, affected by disorganized infrastructure planning, industrial development, uncontrolled tourism, deforestation, fishing activities, sedimentation, climate change, and poor litter management (Hartley et al 2015, Rangel-Buitrago et al 2017. Deforestation resulted in the loss of 35.0 % of the world´s mangroves in the span between 1980 and 2000 (Valiela et al 2001, Giesen et al 2007, Kauffman et al 2011) with a range of annual deforestation from 2000 to 2012 of 0.16-0.39 % (Fries et al 2019), and constant litter input is turning the ecosystem into one of the final disposal destinations, contributing to its degradation and converting it into a litter dump (Cordeiro and Costa 2010, Garcés-Ordóñez and Bayona 2019, Riascos et al 2019.…”
